Why is the web browser discussion such a sore topic? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

Ladybird is still very early in development and is not even targeting an alpha release until 2026. There are no binaries currently available, so the only way to even test what currently exists is to compile the source code. I am excited to see a new competitor, but I also do not have high hopes given how difficult it is to meet all of the web standards. Given the increasing number of websites that have problems or limitations with Firefox, I do not foresee Ladybird ever getting to the point where it could be reliably used by average people. I would love to eventually be proven wrong about this though.

Servo also has nothing to do with Mozilla anymore. It has been a part of the Linux Foundation since Mozilla laid off all of the developers in 2020.

Intel is ruining Intel.

Fedora Linux 41 is here! - Fedora Magazine in c/linux@lemmy.world

The upgrade process on Kinoite (KDE Atomic) was extremely fast and smooth. Fedora has always been among the most reliable when it comes to upgrades in my experience.

Google starts selling refurbished Pixel phones in c/googlepixel@lemmy.world

The prices are insane though. $539 for a 6 Pro that has already received its last major update and is only getting 2 years of security updates. $629 for a 7 Pro that adds one more year of updates. Plus the 7 Pro can be bought new with 4 times the storage for less money.

The Best Lemmy Client in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Voyager is definitely the most polished and great for those who used Apollo for Reddit. It is also very actively developed. For the Android users who do not mind the iOS aesthetic, Voyager is one of the few Lemmy clients on F-Droid.

Thunder is also a great option. I personally prefer its UX more than Voyager, but it is not quite as polished.

Proton is still a for-profit company. However, there is now the non-profit Proton Foundation that is the largest shareholder of the Proton company (not necessarily majority shareholder).

Plus, non-profits are not guaranteed to be positive. See OpenAI for example.

The foundation is the largest shareholder, but Proton has not specified whether it controls a majority.

“I am still alive”: Users say T-Mobile must pay for killing “lifetime” price lock in c/technology@lemmy.world

But T-Mobile is still offering the service, so it is not the lifetime of that either.

The Snapdragon X dev kit that we thought looked pretty cool turned out to be so bad that Qualcomm ended up cancelling it in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

It is so bad, they can not talk about.

Syncthing for Android discontinued in c/fdroid@lemmy.ml

[–] Matt 31 points 7 months ago (2 children)

A GitHub issue was opened for Syncthing-Fork, so it will be worth watching that to know whether it will continue to be supported.
