  • No, it's not.

    It says it's a "Spotify client". It simply isn't.

  • I don't know why, but personally it really rubs me the wrong way.

    It's not really "false advertising", since it's not a paid app, but still...

    Real open source alternatives exist, but they require Spotify Premium to actually stream music legally straight from Spotify.

  • But it's not a Spotify client, is it?

    IIRC it uses Spotify APIs to generate playlists, but that's all.Actual music gets streamed from YouTube.

  • Seems like Organic Maps aren't saints either.

    Apparently the recent lack of updates on F-Droid is due to them including referral links for hotels and refusing to remove it or make it an opt-out feature...

    Here's a relevant issue if anyone's interested: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/issues/7218

    //editLooking at the discussions it's even worse, the devs try to argue that F-Droid is being unfair and referral links shouldn't be "misclassified" as ads...

  • It's probably something with your OS.

    People like to meme about Nvidia being unusable on Linux, but before switching to AMD I was running various Nvidia GPUs for more than a decade and they were always rock-stable.

  • I guess the data that says they spent too much money on hydrogen tech that is now unlikely to pay off.

  • Right, except if I knew beforehand which site has the results I need, why would I even use Google?

  • It's not only legal to assume, it's a requirement to default to "no".Tracking is opt-in.

  • I doubt they do. They just want to be "secure" and are unwilling to admit setting the level at "highest" is bullshit.

    It's not like you can easily get a new number and circumvent this "security" measure if you want... /s

  • I don't know if I'd call that "admirable". It's not the first time I see Gnome team basically telling the users "STFU, we know better".

  • Damn, this thread you've linked... I can't believe they didn't even want to consider giving the user an option to choose the behavior for themselves.

  • There's no "feds" in Europe.

    And if you bothered to check it yourself instead of bitching about it based on some random guy's post spreading FUD you might have found out Proton contributed to a legal fight that changed the Swiss law and made a repeat of this situation impossible.

  • I wouldn't hold my breath. In some EU countries Honda doesn't even admit this model exists anymore...

    I'm guessing the relatively high price and low mileage might have killed it.

  • These volunteers didn't think about it in these terms.They gave away their work for free to help people learn languages, and for a long time Duolingo seemed like the best platform for that.

    Starting your own platform is much more difficult than contributing to an existing one that seems to be operated with some amount of goodwill...

  • Is this just Silverblue but KDE?

  • Sure, right after they implement other advanced features, such as AFK detection on Wayland!

  • There's no reason an app should be more trustworthy than the email.It's pretty standard for scummy companies to make the process as annoying as possible.

  • They already said they don't want to.

    They asked you to install the app on purpose, in hopes that you'll decide it's too much hassle and decide not to delete the account.

  • What big update? Wayland has been pretty usable (on AMD, anyway) for a while now.
