from the article:

Privacy is a core selling point

also from the article: mock-up picture showing WhatsApp running on the phone.

I get it that it would be running Android apps through the compatibility layer on SailfishOS, but that means it's not private. Whatsapp will know lots of things about you.

Because individual books are smaller than a torrent slice.

I don't think that's a limitation. MAM shares books as torrents and it's no issue.

Fuck discord.

Apple being the pinnacle of this. They were the first ones that made devices theirs, not yours.

I will not trust a site that recommends Brave as a secure browser. I'm no security expert, but for a long time Brave proved they're shady and I can't trust them. Also, for mobile browsers I can't see any recommendation of a firefox-based one, which is a shame.

It's getting harder and harder to win this fight. I'm Romanian and I'm afraid on sunday our poor/uneducated people will vote for the far right. I don't even have any idea if I can leave for other country because everywhere you look the far right is gaining political territory.

FUCK NAZIS! FUCK FASCISM!!

Dear ones, I'm sorry to have to make this announcement, but this is where our tracker comes to an end. It is important that you understand and accept this decision. Although it was a difficult one, it was taken after careful evaluation and for good reasons.

Unfortunately, I no longer have the time to run the site. A site like this requires quite a lot of commitment and my priorities in everyday life have changed in recent years. Time is the most precious resource for all of us and I have invested enough time here.

I wanted to leave the site to someone else, who would take care of the community in the future, but unfortunately I don't have anyone to leave it to. ToXiC, the one who was going to take my place is no longer with us.

This is quite the responsibility, we have a large number of users who also have sensitive data that cannot be left in anyone's hands. Abuses can be made and whoever has absolute power can decide anything regarding everything related to the community, so obviously a reliable, capable person is needed who also has very advanced technical knowledge to ensure the security of our users and proper functioning of the site. It is quite difficult to find such a person who is integrated here and shares the same values and has the same dedication that you have enjoyed for the last 16 years.

I decided that the best thing to do is to close the site rather than risk something like this. I'm truly sorry, I've also put a lot of work into this and I've always had the community at heart.

As a SysOp I thank you for your active involvement in our community. I deeply appreciated the valuable contributions, the passion you brought and the effort you put in. FileList would not be what it is today without the involvement of all of you!

What happens from now on? From this moment on, donations are closed and the amount we have covers expenses for the next 2-3 months. During this time you can still enjoy the site, download what you need from here and post your goodbye message in the thread. After ~3 months, sometime around January 2024, the site will be closed permanently.

With love and appreciation, EboLLa

When they go bust they will sell your data.

And ignorant...

Did you even try to watch the clip? It's not even in the US! This is the scary part.

Having a headphone jack will let you use any kind of headphone produced in the last 50 years, which has a 3.5mm jack. Also, while listening to music you could also charge your phone, if you choose to, but not with a USB-C only port. Furthermore, USB-C DACs are stupid, they are an annoyance, even the ones with the shortest cables - I broke three of them in two months because they're idiotically designed and they don't fold in my pocket - a thing that never happened with headphone cables.

This is why I will never buy a Nintendo console. I'm about to buy a Steam Deck... call me biased.

FUTO in Romanian sounds a lot like "fuck her"...

Why is Proton better for privacy than Bitwarden? What do they do differently?

Who the fuck remembers Mandela dying in prison??? The man was resilience itself!

No need to go to the us. Fuck that hellhole.

The American piss has nothing on the Czech original beer.

If it's a bug, then reinstalling won't do anything. You could try first creating a new user and checking out that happens with it too. Also, open a bug - it will help others too.

I'm so fucking sick of this shit called omarchy. It's literally everywhere related to Linux: in my mastodon feed, in my Lemmy feed, on YouTube! Someone is pushing it like a corporate product and I hate it. Plus, it's created and pushed by a fascist. Fuck that too!

Do you have an nvidia GPU? It's the most important thing to know.
