https://www.shotcut.org/ and https://www.openshot.org/ are other options, besides the already mentioned KDEnlive.

This kind of video content is apparently not popular here 😅

False advertisement is never ok.

A user configurable “hardware” privacy switch is a contradiction in itself. If it can be controlled by software it can’t do what the marketing claims 🤦

Otherwise, Mediatek soc… likely riddled by binary blob drivers and bad mainline kernel support, but lets see.

Conversations/Cheogram are excellent XMPP apps for Android that are freely available on F-Droid.

If would need to be patched in on Linux kernel level, which is annoying to say the least.

Because there exists only one place in the world and that is called US of A? 🙄

Saudi Arabia is still the biggest oil exporter in the world (as of 2024). If you drive an internal combustion car anywhere, chances are high that you paid the Sheiks at least some money for doing so.

When devs switch their development PCs to ARM, you will also start seeing ARM native versions. It is the same with Linux and Proton.

Given that they did have a beta for Steam on x86 Chromebooks, and Google seems hellbend to replace ChromeOS with an modified version of Android (“AluminiumOS”) these days, it seems likely that Valve will also consider a release for that. I wouldn’t expect them to make an official release for phones though.

After finishing to read the interview it does indeed sound different, but it is odd that this isn’t open-source somewhere like Proton and Fex always were.

I guess that is a streamlined version of Waydroid?

Don’t look online, ask friends and family if someone has an old laptop you can get for free. Very likely someone does, especially if you are ok with a bad battery and/or a broken screen.

A RPi3 can work, but it being ARM based will cause various headaches when learning compared to something x86.

As illustrated here:

2015 is now a decade ago 🤷

I have bad news for you if you drive a non-electric car 😏

Typically a video-chat server does no transcoding so this isn’t a major issue. But for hosting a Peertube or Owncast server it would.

The old A/V chats in Matrix were just Jitsi-meet in disguise, but this has been largely deprechiated now with Element Calls.

Bitcoin and Ethereum only have liquidity in the market because scammers use it for their pig butchering etc. scams. And all the major exchanges are complicit in that. Many Banks are scammy, yes, but not that scammy by a long shot. Sorry to burst your bubble 🤷

https://movim.eu/ can do that AFAIK, but for now the A/V calls don’t go through an SFU distribution server (coming soonish), so it will not scale to many participants. But if you want to only stream to a few people (like max. 5 or so, depends a bit on your and their internet speed) it should work.

It’s nice that they ported it, but it would be much nicer if there were any server boards with open firmware that not super old, but right now being cycled out of professional use and thus cheap to pick up from resellers.
