that explains a lot, thank you!

whats connected to that steamdeck that allows them to draw
eh, ddg is equally bad with it insisting it knows better than me what my query is and “fixing” it, leaving me to have to either fix it or click a link telling it “yes I really did want to search for that and not what you assumed”
DDG keeps changing my search query because its “not returning a lot of results” or because it thinks I typo’d and it is infuriating to me, sometimes it doesnt even inform me that it did, not even giving me a link to click to get to my actual search query
'also noticed that it got worse around the same time google did
that’s because that’s what happened. Simple mobile tools got bought out by a company known for exactly that: putting ads and spyware in apps
thankfully since its open source, there’s already a fork in the works called Fossify
It has begun
(ps install the fork versions of the simple mobile tools suite, its called fossify)
oh I see you’re that kinda person
No means no
can you not do this? lets keep this disingenuous behavior over on reddit
no its not, consent is important
I do not consent to having my bodily waste be enjoyed by my toilet
I’m not so much in favor of IP law as I am in favor of informed consent in every aspect of the word.
when posting photos, art and text content years ago, I was not able to imagine it might be trained off by an AI. As such I was not able to make a decision based on informed consent if I agreed to that or not.
Even though quotes such as “once you post it, its on the internet forever” were around, I was not aware the extend to which this reached and that had my art been vacuumed by a generative AI model (it hasnt luckily) people could create art that pretends to be created by me. Thus I could not consent
I think this goes for a lot of artists actually, especially those who exist far more publicly than I do, who are in those databases and who are a keyword to be used in prompts. There is no possible way they could have given informed consent to that at the time they posted art/at the time they started that social media profile/youtube channel etc.
To me, this is the real problem. I could care less about corporations.
Simple mobile tools has been sold to a company that buys apps to put ads and trackers in them. They likely wont be open source in the future either anymore. Consider changing the links out for the fossify versions, that’s a fork
instead of the simple mobile tools, consider changing them out for fossify versions. Simple mobile tools recently got sold to a company that buys up apps to put ads and trackers in them, Fossify is a fork
as long as software I use daily doesn’t work on it as transparently as it did to me as an end user on xorg then yes, to me as the enduser, Wayland does break things and no, Wayland is not ready
I am an enduser. I don’t care about the specifics, I expect things to work and not suddenly break.
For all the “year of the linux desktop” shouting, nobody wants to truly really think about or consider non-dev daily driver endusers who just want things to continue to work like they always have
can’t violate the prime direggtive
which part of “no negotiations possible” do you not get?
I would like a more granular choice, acccessibility is not something I can give up, I don’t care sites can fingerprint me with it
resist fingerprinting resets zoom levels because its used as a way to fingerprint, sites can get zoom levels and the idea is to blend into the crowd
that said, I share your frustration, I have to disable Resist Fingerprint because of that, the persistent zoom levels are an accessibility requirement for me, no negotiations possible.
Ideally Resist Fingerprinting would allow for more granular options because while I understand the “blending into the crowd” aspect of the option as it is now, it just doesn’t work like this for me and many others with accessibility needs, and that should be addressed
(also replying so I remember to check back for replies, sorry for the ramble, Resist Fingerprinting as it is now annoys me)
you’re right, I kinda let past experiences cloud my judgment for a bit there, and missed that you were doing the right thing,my apologies for that
sadly the fact that I did does point to the very problem I described.
that said I hope you can get somewhere and improve things, my apologies for the mix up
because a lot of foss devs, contributers and even users are so extremely hostile when suggesting ux improvement/report bugs/etcetc for end users not like them that frankly I dont wanna bother. Same reason I don’t report bugs
maybe first tackle that situation before you ask people to throw themselves into what effectively is a lion’s den to mauled by fossbros who can’t get over themselves
Still awaiting the day that hoyomix will be recognized for their work
the day it got leaked I tried it and I can verify that it works. They probably fixed it already I’m guessing
