Yup and that’s why double gerrymandering will be way worse if it succeeds

There should be more on https://alternativeto.net/ when you search “DeepL” for alternatives

Since many are listed here but I am sure there are more

Very true but you can dual wield that watch with an actual full-blown open source smart watch when the full one becomes a thing

Interesting I’ll check them out appreciate the suggestion too

Will for sure do the last part to support Proton, and developer time in those Linux phone solutions they have covered. Just trying to figure out the new hardware too so we are not locked out fully from new tech

Great points non so no worries! Aren’t they partnering with a new OEM though? But I guess that would probably still have the same problem

Thinking to put together a website of what people have suggested in various posts to develop this initiative more overtime in various ways. Any other problems you can think of?

Let’s get people on them!! I checked some out and well they seem a bit low-effort no picture accounts infested but there seem to be some genuine people on there with the verified badge

Appreciate it! Do you mean the FSF Librephone? It’s not a new phone in case you didn’t know. They clarified that the project will be to make the proprietary code blobs of a couple android phone into something FOSS so it can truly be used fully for FOSS development

That makes a lot of sense. So really we would need to make a database of local e-shops and then partner up to have phones sold. That is a genius plan to get into the public eye

I agree with the sentiment in a way to not endlessly want but the actual best thing that leads to happiness, fulfillment, and way more is:

Hope https://www.goodgoodgood.co/articles/hope-key-in-meaningful-life

Hope that your life will be alright. Hope that people will and are working together. Hope that the planet gets better. Hope that your relationship will continue to grow. Add that with purpose, action, and consistency then that is a well-lived life

It will transform into a mass exodus when more people do and get more people to do to get others on FOSS and OSS

Texas is actually a swing state with more blue than red but gerrymandered to win

Better yet say “Then give me your bank account info and social security number”

Can you link the client you use?

Let’s all keep doing more and getting more people active to get it done. We got this. Same thing for other states as well. With every state getting mid-range high speed rail. Then we can get bullet trains for long distances

It will happen eventually just needs more people doing and more proper usage of funding. Can’t wait for upgrade from 39.5 million people to 200 million. Making it a full fledged country with amount of people to back it up. If California can develop in same Japan and South Korea do that would be awesome

This is a great idea. Multiple states should band together to make this happen as well

No worries, great points you listed and definitely good angles on how to tackle it. Definitely will need a wide range of solutions done in tandem and those are definitely up there as well

I completely forgot about Pixelfed. Haven’t tried it yet any clients you would recommend for it?

Here is their alternativeto.net info page: https://alternativeto.net/software/revolt-chat/about/ (Great website to find open source alternatives to other stuff as well)

And here is their actual website: https://stoat.chat/
