Appreciate all your work and I am enjoying kbin but please make sure you are not burning yourself out. I have seen it too many times, especially in open source projects that become super popular all of a sudden. Take care of your mental health and work at a pace that you still enjoy. You don't ow us anything.

Have a great Sunday!

Love it! But that is or can be part of the "problem". Suddenly it's not "I am working on the software I like" anymore but "managing merge requests all day". Not saying that's what's happening here tho. It can be a problem.

What does a whitepaper have to do with cryptocurrency?

Whitepaper is just a different term for a technical documentation[1] and has literally nothing to do with cryptocurrency. Your reasoning in your initial post doesn't make any sense what so ever. I guarantee most of the companies you mentioned, if not all, published white papers for various topics in their past. I can only repeat myself, white papers have absolutely nothing to do with crypto currency. Just as one example. Check the Signal protocol[2] Wikipedia page and search for whitepaper.

It's ok to not know what a white paper is but then don't start your posts with "Looked pretty interesting, until I saw the “read whitepaper” button.".

That being said, where in the skiff white paper did you find crypto currency? Admittedly I didn't read all or even most of it but a simple search for "currency", "blockchain" or even "chain" doesn't return any results. I really hope you don't talk about the word "crypto", cause that has an entirely different meaning in that context.

@SaltyIceteaMaker I installed miniflux, a rss reader, on it. Sadly android constantly kills the internet connecting when the screen turns off, so I can't use it as a server to access it from my other devices. I have tried everything I could find to prevent that from happening.

@BigBlackCockroach Have you heard of https://nostr.com/ ?
Should be of interest to you.
It's censorship resistant by design and you can get 100% censorship resistance by running your own relay (server which transfers the data between the clients).
It's a protocol, so all kinds of different applications can be implemented with it. Something like mastodon already exists.

@hardypart I have no inside info obviously but why would he join? He is making bank with photopea, why support potential competition?

How do you do that? I was looking for exactly that feature but can't find a "local list", which only shows kbin threads or something similar.

Trying this since yesterday without success. Must be something wrong with that instance.

@SomeBoyo Yeah that's the normal devices guarantee you also get with normal android on pixel devices. So in terms of longevity GrapheneOS doesn't offer any advantages. There are other advantages of course.

@kescusay Just out of interest, what are the "special-purpose activities that can’t be done on my Linux laptop" if you don't mind sharing?

Depends on the use case. I played around with it a lot and came to the conclusion that I don't like flatpaks and the base system is not flexible enough for me.

I use it as a self-updating desktop for my parents tho,. For that it's absolutely perfect.

Do we have any information if there will be a version without google drm? Would love to use it on my devices that don't have google play installed.

@SomeBoyo What "long term support"? Official GrapheneOS releases for a device end when the official Android support ends because they don't support hardware where the firmware is not updated anymore. Or did that change recently?

@ElectroVagrant Yes it works like that on kbin, at least to an extend. I am not sure when exactly it gets available tho. Besides that, as other people said, there seems to be a federation bug at the moment which seems to cause this problem.
