I did actually find a very similliar bug in the experimental rendering engine of element (the matrix client). So yes, this is something that exists somewhere else too.

This whole post is so funny, because by reading the comments I think OP tried installing GL Tron of all games and it didn’t work for some reason, spotted that it was last updated 12 years ago and thinks that’s why it doesn’t work on modern phones and now everybody here (me included) is having a great time playing GL Tron on their even more modern phones. 😂

Also this is the exact reason, F-Droid shouldn’t remove apps. Because the algorithm cannot know if the app is just completed and works even 12 years later or whether it’s abandoned and stopped working 2 months later.

Edit:

Just for the record, I have looked through droidify because of their “all apps by last updated”-list and scrolled all the way down.

The “most abandoned app” is Trolly. A shopping list app with too many permissions.

The “most abandoned game” is DroidAtomix which seems unplayable on my phone. The next “better” game is Replica Island which does still work, but is not that much fun to play tbh.

Say you are working for a family member (helping your dad with his company or sth.). A colleague once had to go help his parents with their small company and no one questioned it a bit. No “better pay?” or “man you are moving far away!” just “oh, well good luck”.

Doesn’t look like it, but you can be the one writing one.

Why do people still host their stuff on github if they know its illegal?

How would you play a DRM-free game bought through steam without steam? (Genuine question)

Yes, but the only thing they add is enterprise addons. We don’t need more of those.

A rental car from Sony?

Are you in the wrong thread? (I mean I responded to you but still…)

Yeah, but renting is not purchasing.

(Yes, I am fun at parties.)

Oh, I do know that. But lots of folks even here don’t and that is my problem with all that.

The FOSS community shouldn’t praise them or companies like them simply for open sourcing the MVP of a new product.

With $4M you could round the edges and then some.

I think that open source people should also be able to recognize that always sponsoring a new project is not the open source way.
They could have given established software a facelift and added a lot more features and this would have been better for the open source world than what they did.

I mean it’s not wrong what they did. They just shouldn’t get as much praise for making it open source.
Imagine everyone creating their own versioning system because they don’t like githubs frontend.

I am on the phone too, but loaded it onto my server. It’s currently running. We’ll see.

Edit: So its legit? Wow…

How are projects like this created?

This github repo is 6 months old, they already have 18+k stars and over 800 forks.

This looks like some overfunded pseudo-FOSS shit. Make the bare minimum open source and sell the rest to enterprises.

Why not take the money and really fund an existing project like kanboard or redmine?

I mean ffs kanboard is at least 10 years old and has less than 8k stars on github.

There are a lot of big ones like Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Fedora or Arch. Arch is for users with a little more experience. But funnily enough Arch has like child-distributions, that build upon its core. Ubuntu is also a ‘child’ of Debian an Mint builds onto Ubuntu.

It’s kind of like three or four big families, that had lots of children. 😂

(and then there are NixOS, OpenSuse and lots of others, which I forgot)

It has to do with Linux.

Linux itself is not a fully fledged operating system as most people would expect it. Since Linux has to work on servers and microchips as well as on desktop PCs, lots of stuff is not shipped with it.

For example Linux is missing a way to display windows and has no real package manager.

A distro (or distribution) is a predefined set of of software, that makes it easier for a user to use Linux.

This is mostly a window manager or desktop environment like KDE or GNOME, a package manager like apt or pacman and useful software like an office suite, a browser and other stuff.

Distros also exist for servers, the ln they don’t include a way to display images, but still have a package manager and other useful stuff preinstalled.

That’s of course not all, but maybe gives you a little overview.

I have rephrased the text.

Okay, I actually never tried that. Thanks.

Okay, I am intrigued and did not find anything right away. Can you give me a link?

Yeah, but I want to get rid of my wireless keyboard in favor of a small website/app for my phone.

Can I run Jellyfin on my laptop, but close it up and choose the video to watch via a different browser on my phone?
