6·7 days agoTheir dataset being MIT Licensed is a good thing, thanks for pointing that out. Didn’t think they would release it under a real OSS license. I guess contributing this way is a-okay, even though I would personally refer from giving FUTO any more attention.

FUTO keyboard is a proprietary crap. You are contributing to Nazis pockets, not to open source.

firejail
I would recommend not touching Firejail unless you are 100% sure you know what you are doing, as it can (and probably will) worsen security.
Built-in password managers in software like browsers and operating systems are sometimes not as good as dedicated password manager software. The advantage of a built-in password manager is good integration with the software, but it can often be very simple and lack privacy and security features that standalone offerings have.
For example, the password manager in Microsoft Edge doesn’t offer end-to-end encryption at all. Google’s password manager has optional E2EE, and Apple’s offers E2EE by default.

Why is the built-in password manager disabled?
Use a external password manager, it’s more secure.

- It must be an actual site that contains a reasonable amount of information, not just a couple of links on a page (more info here).
- Your total UNCOMPRESSED web resources must not exceed 512KB.

(The site’s certificate has expired. I really hope they fix it.)They did.Gemini is a group of technologies similar to the ones that lie behind your familiar web browser. Using Gemini, you can explore an online collection of written documents which can link to other written documents. The main difference is that Gemini approaches this task with a strong philosophy of “keep it simple” and “less is enough”.
Gemini might be of interest to you if you:
- Are sick and tired of nagging newsletter subscription pop-ups, obnoxious adverts, autoplaying videos that chase you as you scroll and other misfeatures of the modern web
I encourage you to purchase a FUTO license: it’s money well spent to encourage FUTO. They’ve really earned it.
You should stop promoting FUTO’s proprietary software. It is also against community rules.

Why I recommend against Brave - Luca Bramè.
This article is a pretty good breakdown of why you shouldn’t use Brave.

rooted
Root is always a security risk, you really should not. (GrapheneOS comment (on Reddit) about rooting.)
out the box
None, probably. Refer to Bootloader Unlock Wall of Shame instead to check which companies do not restrict bootloader unlocking. See here for a list of devices where the bootloader can be locked with custom AVB Keys.
Every time someone mentions XMPP I want to link this Soatok’s blogpost.
31·3 months agoI posted saying I use the FUTO Keyboard as it’s open source
It is not.
Even if you think that the license prohibiting commercial use makes it not open source, it certainly doesn’t make it proprietary.
It does. If the license doesn’t meet the OSD and the FSD, then it is proprietary, because,

The developer refused to add lyrics support, supporting their point with a response from ChatGPT.
#188. Diabolical. The feature was added later anyway, but still.
