Just FYI forgejo does have federation, but it's disabled by default. No idea how good/stable/complete it is... https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/admin/config-cheat-sheet/#federation-federation

All browsers on iOS are basically reskinned versions of Safari since they all have to use WebKit

Seems like they're keeping the link up to date on their telegram https://t.me/s/SiegedSecurity

I got very wet but still fun like always!

I haven't been to a Loblaws in ages, but I'm happy to continue with that.

I tend to get my groceries from local independent (not Independent) stores and Giant Tiger. They're closer so I can walk anyway.

Looks like the back (and side) cover clips on. IFixit has repair guides available already. Inside, it looks like basically any regular phone. No Fairphone-esque modules. The inside seems to be well-designed for repairability though -- separate bottom board and battery pull tabs. All of the side buttons are attached to the back cover and a thin cable connects to the main board under some plastic. That's going to be easy to break while repairing...

I looked at all 3 phones, they are all similarly built to the Pro model I linked.

It's a plugin for Decky loader that allows you to control the Steam Deck's fan

Ideally yes, though it would probably also require a reboot to apply. Realistically disabling security mitigations should only expose you to risk when you execute untrusted code (e.g. load a website, run an untrusted program, or etc.), but there's no way of telling if someone could connect to your system using an exploit and then abuse those hardware security flaws.

Consider your own risk tolerance -- is it worth it to you to get that extra few % of performance and risk someone gaining access to information on your Deck (and/or using that information to access other sensitive information)? It might also be worth mentioning that most games aren't 100% trustworthy since we don't exactly know what they're running since game studios don't share their source code.
