  1. @darkufo @dryak I also recommend #SailfishOS. I use #UbuntuTouch on a Nexus 5; #PostmarketOS on a OnePlus 6 and #SailfishOS on an Xperia 10 III and the last of these works great as my main phone. Like you, I'm also avoiding Big Tech (#Ubuntu, #Firefox, #Mastodon, #NextCloud, hosted email). I think you'd enjoy #TheOptOutProject from @cyberlyra

    #Firefox gang here, though I've used it forever, so no switch here
    #Mastodon as well
    #Lemmy too
    #Bitwarden from LastPass
    #ProtonDrive from GoogleDrive
    #SynologyDrive from GoogleDrive
    #SynologyOffice from GoogleDocs
    #Protonmail from Gmail (actually finished the migration, it's refreshing)

    For a year or so I've also replaced Android with #SailfishOS but just last week I've come back to Android.

  3. @darkufo As much as I like to destroy the myth of the "great" Saudi League and its fascist regime behind it, this game is not played in Saudi Arabia, but in Brazil (#Uberlandia's Estadio Parque do Sabia) and it is not Al-Hilal playing (look at the crest on #Neymar|s jersey).

    However, I find #Neymar despicable for promoting fascism in and outside Brazil (Bolsonaro, Saudi-Arabia) and your point about the multi-million players is correct to me.

  4. I seriously love OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) . Given my old 2012 Mac Mini new life and works surprising well.

    Photo shows my old 2012 Mac Mini running the latest MacOS Sequoia 15.0. Apple stopped supporting this Model with new updates from Version 10 back in 2018.

  25. Hmm.. upgraded my to on my main PC with a 3050 GPU.

    Note: Running with KDE Plasma 6.

    However both and browsers are both flickering like mad !

    I cleared the GPUCache folders. No change.

    I've re-installed both and but the flickering continues.

    I've tried turning off Hardware Acceleration in both browsers..

    I've tried running

    sudo depmod -a

    and rebooting but that didn't fix it.

    Any thoughts/ideas?
