If you like the LOTR movies, go watch this movie! I already had a big smile on my face the moment the New Line logo started appearing (not because of the logo :P ). I want sure if I'd like the anime style, but while I still prefer live action it was great, especially the beautiful backgrounds resp. landscapes. The story is quite straightforward and brings you a backstory to places or people featuring in lotr Rohan, but there's no direct connection (which I think is good). I wouldn't have considered it YA. Just less "visually violent" due to animation, but theme and story seem pretty much standard. I'd say the main target age is anyone that has already seen lotr :P
As the statement says I wont - it will be fully discontinued. This statement applies to the official app only. It doesn't say anything about other apps or forks - any existing once can and hopefully will continue to exist. Also all the code is free.
I am not the creator, funnily that is/was one of the Lemmy creators: Nutomic :)
I am a syncthing co-maintainer that kept the android app on life support since a while.
It's all in the open, you can go dig around for reasons. As usual there wasn't a single simple one. Neither was it some kind of complete fallout, we e.g. collaborated on translations and I have been in contact around various things with the one that forked.
Oh don't worry to much, mine too: If there wasn't an alternative for syncthing on android, I might have kept it on lifesupport :)
What?! All that noise about Switzerland mandating usage of open sourced software in gov (there was a great step, but it's far from mandating anything) was already weird, now we are switching to linux? And caring about security and fiscal responsibility? There has to be another country called Switzerland than the one I live in.
I can relate to a few things here (e.g. definitely share the lack of coordination), of course others very much not - it drives my curiosity through the roof: Any stories on what happens when you are with the FFL and have no coordination from start to end? I feel like there have to be some very good ones :)
