Thats the Point of having an Open Source OS where everyone can have a voice. So you can talk about something if its a pile of dogshit.

Is the next video going to be „Why is there so much drama in the bundestag“?

But why Bazzite? There is already fedora, opensuse, and everything else

What?

Does this function similar to a “Private Space” on newer Android or “Secure Folder” on Samsung?

No. Unlike those, you dont have to unlock the app nd use them, the sandbox is just a normal apk but it dosent allow gservices root access and blocks most telemetry, leaving only the necessary APIs

If you want a total user sandbox, you create another user and install gservices there.

Are there problems with OTP in this environment?

There are like 30 ways to send/generate an OTP.

So, they’re basically bridges that allow you to use some Windows programs in Linux?

They are like really Bad cocaine. Sure, it may work, but if you want to give up that much time, might as well learn an alternative because the next version will need a new workaround.

I read they can use vst files with a bit of work

That’s an emulator.

Is there a difference between Wine and Proton

Proton-ge is a fork of proton is a fork of wine, which only exists because Wine isnt made for gaming specifically and proton can’t include a bunch of stuff because of legal reasons which enhance gaming further.

Arch Hits the great spot

It has:

• a great wiki
• many packages, enough for anything you want to do
• its the only distros that is beetween everything done for you and gentoo-like fuck you.
• and the Memes.

Im all for piracy, but cant OP make it kinda obvious at least instead of scaring away New users by making it look like Linux is way too hard

Also, there are like thousands of threads about this already on other Forums made for piracy, and its still the same: download steam or Heroic, add New game, select the exe, and play

You install steam. You install tekken through steam. Its not that hard.

Its my experience with server software for beginners in general, which gets my enshittification senses tingling. I just dont trust in a company providing a hell of a service (like, getting tens if not hundreds of docker images to work with the click of a button) for free.

With Truenas I know that their community branch is an ad for their enterprise service because no single person will key thousands for the caliber of support their enterprise has, so they make their money by offering cloud services. So that explains how it is still feasable for them to give me their dataset and UI and everything frontend for free.

But with Casa, I just dont know where the money comes from. I dont see how they can keep up their operations and make a profit with this kind of effort. So I can only assume that many non essential services will be put behind a paywall.

And if they do it, I still know that they use docker and ZFS, and I can spend a day or 2 learning how to set up a software raid and an ssd as a ZFS buffer for it, and everything else i‘ve set up with their OS.

But thats the problem: Beginners dont know. Its like with the Iphone: If the user dosent learn how to deploy a docker instance from a compose file themselves, they will be bound to that frontend and all the enshittification that happens to it.

Therefore I would like it way more if Selfhosting was more like the AUR. First learn how the Process of pulling an image and makepkg‘ing works firsthand, then you can use the frontend like yay. Not the other way around.

But if no one learns how to do something the old fashioned way and relies on a frontend for everything, at some point the company behind the frontend will vendor lock everyone into their system, since there is no competition anyway

Be my guest, uninstall GPServices and see

Never had it installed in the first place.

All of your Points are either already answered by me, ad hominem, or random assumptions without data backing it up.

False.Graphene does not have Gservices installed by default

but it will always be far less aggressive about it than Google

Whataboutism. Browser advertises itself as privacy respecting, yet builds on a non Privacy respecting OS. If they really wanted to protect the user, they would be open source, (at least the methods of protecting the user from tracking) firefox based and availible for linux and Android FOSS, similar to everything else (Firefox, Molly, Signal, etc). My whole Comment was about how they advertise themselves as Private, yet fail to address the most basic privacy concerns, essentially being an oxymoron. This was not about „which OS is less evil“ but „why did they not opt for the not at all evil?“

Android also runs Google play services

False. AOSP does not have Gservices, and has enough forks for hardware (Linaege, Graphene, Calyx, /e/)

Both OS suck big time

See my point about AOSP.

I know the post was about Apple

So you just posted some random comment just because?

and I was pointing out that android is likely worse for privacy

Also false, see my Point about AOSP.

Still, it wouldn’t be in their interest to gather data

My sources say otherwise.. Apple has an interest in collecting your data.

What? You mean Android?

I know this is not really a thing where you come from, but here on lemmy we read the OPs text first before commenting, which also would have answered all your questions, but if you really need it: The Browser is based on Propriatery Apple Software and only runs on it

yep

Like, you want to actually contribute against fingerprinting? Make a repo with documentation on how you want to achieve it and publish a firefox fork as example.

If you want change in the software world, you have to make a blueprint everyone can use or at least get an idea and let them have the freedom of implementing it their own way

„We ArE sOOoO pRivAtE“

Based on closed source Webengine running on OS known for data collection™

Nope, only with other linux phone brands

PostmarketOS is like the name says for EoL devices, not brand new ones

How?

I used Fedora and bazzite for a while now and nothing ever happened.

is that Google allows this.

Just wait until you see what data google collects
