It is still young and underdeveloped.

It is advertised to be simpler, but I don't understand any of this words thrown in this thread. And I don't care. Pulseaudio and pipewire is still making me troubles, even thou alsa worked without issues for me.

Point it, make it clear and stable and we will come. Until than we will use the beast we know. It os mich easier when there are no options, but Wayland is fighting something that exists and it takes time and effort.

Another problem is they pushed it to early and people got burned. Until I start seeing "I switched to Wayland in one command and everything works" I (as a user) will not touch it (unles my distro decides to drop X).

I am conflicted. From one side, I agree with you sincevthis is a good idea.

I personally never go around paywalls, if someone doesn't want me to read their article I will not do it.

But... they do push their content to search engines and waste my time with something I can not access. My time also costs money.

Than there is problem with I don't trust media will write the truth anyway, so giving them few bucks will probably not change that. But it is important for us to know what other people know.

Now we came to sharing knowledge, like we would before when newspapers were printed on paper - I could give it or show it to a friend or neighbor. Or go to a library and read it.

While this is outside of our current discussion, they need to find better model.

If it is a daily newspaper, maybe paywal new articles and release after sone reasonable time (like a week, or month... or a year).

I like your idea of separating feeds, to keep paywalled content out of my feed.

I understand she wants freedom in a house she lives in.

But if you go to visit your parents it is not of her concern. She can not get both.

She might be worried about some fantasy she has, but it might not be too bad in the end.

I am in this situation. My parther is close (physically and emotionally) to her family and I wouldn't want them visiting. But I am happy for her (without me) to go.

Problem arises when she wants me to go too and that's where fight starts. Either eight away or after visit, wether I go or not.

No advice, just my experience.

I am slowly switching back to podcasts, it is only question of time when yt quality goes bellow usability, they are dancing around that thin line like with search.

First ever, I think was

First on personal computer was probably "Football Manager" on C64: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ej3zs7PB-QQ

Firts on x86 was "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" https://youtube.com/watch?v=EGoFwc_EgZM in school.

But first ever was probably some arcade, I would love to know which one was first contact. Never even though of it. Tetris, or Operation wolf, or Donky Kong.

This things are also some of first: https://youtube.com/watch?v=PNZ6DUEzzeA and https://youtube.com/watch?v=T0HovHcgM1g

Woow... you time traveled me far in the past. But I don't know which one was first :(.

Thank you for mentioning Pie Fed, I neverd heard of it until now, but looks great. Clean code, intro video for developers, db structure exolained. Really friendly for new contributors, quite refreshing.

If those options are functional, otherwise focus on making some of them functional.

Sadly, this is expected, the unknown person didn't break any law. I guess we need to update laws to cover this kind of threats.

Consult a lawyer, document everything.

Everyone involved should try to write down or record everything they can remember about suspected person and contact with them.

My country is similar, but there is a difference if they cross a line at some point if you reported them before or not. Punishment is much harder and faster if there are reports before incident.

Maybe an error?

Error would be if they removed GMaps or Gmail from Play store, this is sabotage.

Play store is 99% some kind of scum, but they found open source app that community likes and is providing service comparable to their app. Yeah, right.

If they don't want us to call it sabotage, they should be extra careful about apps that are providing same service as them.

Sadly we don't have huge choice. I think gpodder wirks on windows: https://gpodder.github.io/ and does the job.
