Hi. I haven't paid the Trackmania subscription for a while because I don't think it's right to give money to Ubisoft, and even less now that Trackmania is involved in the Saudi Arabia tournament. What do you think about all this? Do you really think my stance makes sense? The truth is I'd like to have the full game, because I like TM and I always follow it, but what I mentioned above puts me off a lot...

I’ve also tried to get the community to move to better alternatives, like switching Reddit for Piefed or Lemmy, and leaving Discord for Matrix or Stoat, but there’s no way... The community is great, but it seems stuck in these awful apps... A few days ago, for example, I tried to bring up the topic in the Trackmania Discord. One user supported me and then we were ignored. The same happened in the Trackmania Spanish Discord, nobody is going to take action, even if they think it's the right thing, because there's no community they don't want to. But there isn't a community because they won't take action, it's stupid.

Edit: Added last paragraph.

I am trying to update my PC, but I get this error and I don't really know how to fix it.

Thanks :D

Hi.

I want to know if it is possible to follow my Masto account from Piefed. I see my profile here https://piefed.social/u/[email protected] but there is only 1 reply.

Thanks

Si usáis #MullvadVPN (que si no la usáis no se que hacéis con vuestra vida), los subtítulos de #YouTube puede que no funcionen porque #Google es una gran empresa, 100% ética #ironía. Para solucionarlo, cambiad a países así raros, tipo Chipre.
Siempre podéis usar la extensión, para cambiar solo Youtube.

If you use #Mullvad VPN (and if you don't, I don't know what you're doing with your life), #YouTube subtitles might not work because #Google is a great company, 100% ethical #sarcasm. To fix it, switch to weird countries like Cyprus.
You can always use the extension to change only Youtube.

Hello. I was considering buying a Pixel phone and using GrapheneOS, but given the current issues with AOSP and Google’s developer verification for apps, which might effectively kill F-Droid, I’m no longer sure if it’s a viable option. So, I’ve been thinking about trying a Linux phone for daily use.

I’ve seen that SailfishOS is an option, specifically with the Jolla C2, but I’m not convinced by the phone itself due to its low-resolution screen and lack of a fingerprint reader. I do find it interesting that it allows easy installation of Android apps, which is quite important to me at the moment.

From what I’ve seen, I could buy a Sony Xperia 10 III Dual SIM (the Xperia 10 IV and V don’t support Android apps) and install SailfishOS, but this raises some questions:

1. Is it worth buying this phone and installing SailfishOS? I don’t know if anyone has tried it or if there’s another phone or Linux distribution for phones you could recommend.
2. The SailfishOS website states that this phone comes with version “4.4.0 Vanha Rauma 2022.” Is it possible to update it to the latest version? Where can I find out how long this phone will be supported?
3. If I install SailfishOS on this phone, will the fingerprint reader work? Or does SailfishOS, regardless of the phone, not support this feature?
4. I’ve seen that it’s possible to install MicroG on the Jolla C2, so I assume it’s also possible on the Xperia. But is it possible to install Android Auto along with “Android Auto - XLauncher Unlocked (AAXLU)” and have it work? I currently use “aa4mg” with “Android Auto - XLauncher Unlocked (AAXLU)” to run CoMaps in my car.
5. Is there something similar to the “Play Integrity Fork” module, which I use with Magisk, to spoof apps into working? That’s what I currently use on my LineageOS phone.

Thank you very much.
