Is it just me or the meaning of the word "self-host" changed?

This is plain stupidity over some SJWs pointless whining, sad to see people being such braindead to support bullshit like this.


It's easy, just by bundling stuff and "luring" users to sync data to their probably-insecure(!) server.


which bundled stuff would that be? i didn't notice any.

i can't speak to their server. i am not using it. i am not even reminded about its existence. i think you are asked once on setup and then never again. hence there is no luring to it either.


You'll only learn when you get pwned or worse, your phone gets bricked because of incompetent people running e/OS! The fact that you are failing to even acknowledge the proof and refusing to even do a little bit of self-research tells me everything I need to know about e/OS's userbase. Get out of the echo chamber of using privacy theatric and insecure mobile OS


i don't know how you get to that conclusion. you are the one making claims, so you need to bring the evidence. what apps are on /e/OS that would allow me to get owned?

but the key point is: no matter what you think about me: you think i'd do better with lineageOS? i'd be using all the same apps there. so i really can't see how that would be any safer.


Not with MAS. It's supported until 2032.


Take a look at the article I attached. Windows 10 itself is getting updates, that's not a problem, waning support from software vendors is.


Dual-boot user here, while this is definitely good to hear, but I think it's even more important that how many players could ditch Windows and switch to Linux for their games.

Suppose I play one of the 10% games that wouldn't work on Linux, I'd still need to keep my Windows installation around, right?


> PWAs

And I wonder when can we stop lying to ourselves pretending "web"-apps are real (native) apps?


Why?


Can you create and run a service that starts when phone is turned on, with a PWA app? Usecase is a backup daemon.


Does every app need to do this?

I make lots of "real" healthcare apps that are PWAs.

Much better installation and user experience, no dev cert nonsense, brain dead simple updates, no app store, etc...


Backup, file sync, and chat... very common and important use cases. Not everything can start with a user request.


You shouldn't need a service running all the time for chat. Just use push notifications.


Heh, I wonder if it's just like how 4chan anons j?rking off to themselves for the fact that Ofcom sends out pointless fines and sh?t.


huh? what makes you think of that?


"Two more weeks" is a meme phrase used when an event will never actually happen. For example: "trust the plan! just two more weeks until XYZ" when XYZ will not happen.


Specifically it comes from Trump frequently saying “two more weeks” and then nothing ever happens


No



tomorrow never comes


tomorrow never dies


So tired of their auth wall, screw 'em.


Windows 10 IoT LTSC FTW as always if you're not going to switch to Linux distros, Microsoft promised that Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows but they broke it, I see it as more than 100% morally correct to pirate LTSC for this.
