The only thing which F-Droid reports is that it uses jawg.io for visualising the map tiles and that is considered non-free is because it is… commercial?

This is the quote from the Streetcomplete github:

Since mid 2020, JawgMaps provides their vector map tiles service to StreetComplete for free, i.e. the background map displayed in the app.

Personally I don’t care that much about FOSS/non-FOSS but IMO a reason like that is least of my concerns when looking at open source. If they’re providing a free (as in money) service to an open source app then that’s perfectly fine.

Sounds like you don’t even know what GOG does?

No

There’s 5???

Switch to firefox.

Right? It’s insane.

Yep, you’re right there.

Ngl seeing the American left wing bubble burst is wild and entertaining. I mean, I would never want Trump to be elected but people have gotten a huge reality check of what sort of online environment they were exposed to.

Democrats are a donkey.

As an outsider, not sure if fact or commentary haha.

everyone seemed to jump to conclusions.

Honestly, everyone’s been so burned by companies pulling the wool over their eyes that there’s just no trust left. People were happy with Mozilla 5-6 years ago and nowadays everyone is a skeptic.

You might be right in this case but they weren’t wrong.

Copilot is fantastic branding tbh. It’s like the MBAs want change for the sake of keeping their jobs.

Hey Google, how do I award a comment Lemmy gold?

Looks like Pixel 9 stays the odd one out by not releasing with the latest version of Android

This is actually pretty cool assuming that there’s a permission for this that I can toggle.

Probably not technically true because podcasts use RSS

I have an account that I use to read, but I’ve never posted on Mastodon. Decided to tweet after seeing this post and I see a privacy option called “Quiet Public - Fewer Algorithmic Fanfares”.

Seriously, wtf is this? What does that even mean? If techie people like me can’t figure out Mastodon then you can’t expect the general public to do that. I’m not blaming this feature in particular, but Mastodon is quirky in all the wrong ways.

Why does “World News” on lemmy.world give an ass about the American election season? Why was this not instituted during the elections which happened in India? We have like a billion people.

*funeral speech

How can it connect to access points without a password? Every wifi/hotspot has passwords on by default.

Lack of people is genuinely nice for now as Lemmy is still lacking moderation features
