I’ve been with them since the first alphas, and no, the mobile and desktop apps, and the server implementation were never open source, only the mautrix and beeper bridges. Nothing has changed with the new apps, and the local bridges (that run in your phone with the app) will also be open sourced on release.

The beeper apps were never open source to begin with, but all the bridges are and will continue being.

Swiping on the space bar only moves characters, the faster/longer you swipe, the more characters or words you swipe. There are no other functionalities that overlap or conflict with this

They were required by law to give out whatever I formation they had, which is barely anything. Proton (and other similar services) aren’t exempt from the law, despite what you may think.

Hey look it’s the bandwagon that thinks privacy focused services are above the law and talk smack about those when they follow the law

If you look at the very first page, it says " property of the US government"

I’m pretty sure the USA does not own my South American and European passports nor my driving licences

Seems like the bug where random things become light mode, on Android 15. I think you can toggle off and on dark mode and it’ll be fixed, or change your colour theme to something else and back.

Tell me you didn’t read the article without telling me you didn’t read the article

it quite literally takes 5 minutes with a WebUSB installer.

With a supported phone, on a Chromium browser on Windows. It takes much more than that usually, depending on device, to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM

Say what you will about the country, but gov.br and PIX put everything else to shame and no one even came close to something like that

But you’re not handing your phone over, it stays in your hand and if there’s a QR code to scan they’ll scan it with the phone in your hand

In Brazil, the officer just uses their own phone to scan a validation QR on the ID app, at no point your phone leaves your hand and in a few seconds the officer has what they need. Shouldn’t this be the case in the EU? AFAIK the officers only take your physical ID to check the number, so if you’re using the app they shouldn’t need to confirm that as the info is already validated

This seems good and all on paper but in the real world this means you become a social outcast that’s left out of everything

In my experience, doesn’t matter. You can use lutris/bottles or install on a windows pc and copy files to the Deck and it’ll work, the distro is irrelevant in this case.

I stick with Steam OS because I don’t see any real world benefits of changing to another distro

They have already stated they’ll do a premium subscription

Reminder

It doesn’t matter if BlueSky has or hasn’t EU offices, if EU citizens are allowed to use their service, then they have to abide by GDPR, DSA and other EU regulations.

Prove it or stop spamming this

This user is spamming the same comments about this on every post about Bluesky and their sources are “trust me bro I hate Jack”

Finally! One of the most requested (and complained about the lack of) features from tech circles and even outside of those, but leave it to Lemmy users to be comically negative about it.

You people are miserable
