If you can figure out Linux, you can definitely use KeepassXC…

Arch Linux

You can break anything quite easily on arch if you don’t know what you’re doing, including security.

For passwords, you can use the same KeepassXC database on multiple devices. It’s encrypted, and you can have the passphrase file locally on multiple devices, and the cloud provider cannot access it even by brute forcing. The database itself would not be reliant on the cloud service, you can easily switch between any provider (I currently use dropbox)

Well, it does compromise your privacy

Do you have some obscure hardware? I have multiple desktops running Ubuntu or similar, and have not had any issues with browser video playback. At home an AMD GPU, at work an NVIDIA one. Admittedly, I use firefox.

You can build all kinds of shady and privacy–hostile features into closed source projects, as opt out, and only remove them once people find out.

Why do you use brave anyway? It’s spyware

only if I have to

lapce is dead, isn’t it?

It’s gotten so much worse over the past few years, and it’s not looking like the trend is going to revert

Gamers are the majority of the desktop space

96% of US households have at least one computer. There are under 14 million steam users in the US. The math isn’t mathing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_bias

EDIT: mobile being at 15.3% is all we need to see here

Surely we don’t count steam deck nor think gamers are a representative sample of computer users

it’s already grown from ~1% to ~6% within the last couple of years

Source?

An LSAG signature proves that the signature came from one of the announced public keys, but it is impossible to know which.

I mean I just took the users word for summarizing the thing accurately, but doesn’t seem too complicated to me https://crypto.stackexchange.com/a/112036

Either way, it’s not about this specific idea. It’s just that you need some technical way to combat bots, be it cryptography, web of trust, subjective moderation etc. If it’s open source, there will not be enough volunteers to do moderation

This kinda app would need at least an attempt at a technical solution to the bot problem. An open source app can’t just pay people to kick bots out. And even the paid apps that can are drowning in bots.

Something cryptographic maybe. Tor is kinda magical, makes anonymity possible while the each machine knows who they are talking to. Maybe something where you can show that you are “a verified user” without showing exactly which one.

I have a few (internal) web pages like that at work, they do the job but yes they are ugly

Have you ever seen HTML without CSS? It’s ugly as hell

I think the better comparison (whether that’s technically accurate or not) is to HTML + CSS + JS. Which is overly complicated for just small blogs and personal webpages etc. I think that’s the “issue” Gemini is trying to solve.

They are called digital audio players / DAPs nowadays. Theres a wide variety of them. Also you can also buy a used ipod or a sony walkman. I use an iPod nano, though that’s would be a bit of a hassle without macos.

The modded ipod classics are kinda cool, larger storage and open source software. And no bluetooth if you are concerned about that.
