  • Yeah, I'm not buying any more Pixels. I got the Fairphone 6! It's good! I'm in the US, so I got it from Clove. Works fine on T-Mobile.

    Although, I'm currently running Android... Probably have to install e/OS or something.

    I hope Fairphone can continue to grow to eventually meet Graphene's hardware requirements.

  • grrr

    Jump

  • :/ Yeah.

    "It's all fake, bro. They're just trying to make Trump look bad, bro. Actually, Biden and Hillary are in there, but they're covering it up, bro."

    😭

  • GrapheneOS - break free from Google and Apple

    Jump

  • Gah. I was really torn between replacing my broken Pixel with another Pixel+GOS or buying a Fairphone 6...

    I ended up going with the Fairphone 6 cuz I want to support other players. I'm not completely off Google, but I keep moving away where I can.

    I wish Fairphone and Graphene were friends... :/

  • This part of Fluxer makes me a little nervous...

    Finally, we can offer commercial licences to companies that want to run Fluxer internally without being bound by the AGPLv3 copyleft terms. This is enabled via a contributor-friendly CLA, but it doesn't create a separate "enterprise edition". It's still the same Fluxer software everyone else uses.

    So Fluxer will be AGPLv3 until the creator wants to turn up the money faucet? Then, thanks to the CLA, they'll rugpull and change the license, like everyone else?

    Loving the phone!

  • Ah, ok! Thanks!

  • They're interesting. They're ahead on some features compared to Stoat, like screen sharing. There's no Fluxer Android app at the moment though. There is a Stoat Android app.

    The Fluxer server seems snappier than the Stoat server, at least for now.

    Federation would be huge if Fluxer ever gets to that.

    There's also no community search on Fluxer right now. In Stoat, I can browse communities. There's an Arch Linux server on Stoat!

  • I just checked, it seems like Stoat doesn't have screen sharing yet. Also no video yet. Both say "Coming soon!"

    They have text and voice channels available today though.

    does any one have any thoughts on Stoat?

    It's pretty much a Discord clone. The UI is very similar. Which is good!

    However, right now the biggest hurdle I have is the slow server performance. They're understaffed and underfunded, the main instance is slow. Maybe it would run great if you self hosted it.

    I recently learned about fluxer.app, which is another clone.

    I just checked and screen sharing seems to be working with them. fluxer.app also has voice and text channels.

    Interestingly, fluxer.app says federation is on the road map... But, realistically who knows when that could be. Fluxer also said they're purposely not working on federation now because they have a million other things to work on, which is totally fair.

    fluxer.app wants you to pay them starting now. They sell Plutonium, which is like Nitro. Which. Also seems kinda fair. Devs need to eat.

  • Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI

  • I don't review that shit. Those PRs tend to be huge walls of text. If you didn't take any effort into preparing something for me, then I'm not making any effort into reviewing it for you.

    Let the slop flow! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

    When it breaks, I'm also not jumping in to fix it.

  • LOL. Exactly. This reminds me of a slop code change my manager recently posted. It was a million lines, where really it just needed to be like 3 or 4 lines. I refuse to do a real review for slop PRs.

    Later in standup he proudly proclaims, "You know, that PR was mostly Claude." ... ... ...

    I know! It was bad! You should feel bad! The fact that he was proud of it showed he doesn't know what the hell he's doing. More lines of code means higher performance, right?? 😂

  • What's the point of switching to Discord alternatives, if they're going to be subject to the same age verification laws?

    Jump

  • And the new apps will be subject to the exact same laws.

    Hm? I don't see how the government is going to force me to enable ID age verification on my self-hosted Stoat instance.... 🤔

  • It's annoying that some (software) engineering friends think he's smart. Like, bro. He's not the one building the rockets. He's just the guy with money that pays actually smart people to build rockets.

    Just because your manager can tell other teams what YOU are working on, does not mean your manager has the technical chops to do it.

  • I tried buying from Clove from the US, but they want me to upload a picture of my ID and credit card....

    Or alternatively:

    If you are unable to provide the images, an alternative option is to have this transaction refunded - you can then pay via our secure PayPal gateway or arrange a bank transfer. PayPal allows you to select ‘Pay by Debit or Credit Card’ if you do not have a PayPal account. For refunds please be aware that if your card currency is not GBP sterling, then the funds returned to your account may be less than the original transaction. Exchange rates vary and your card issuer will most likely need to use a different currency conversion rate for the refund.
