The news site you link to is total BS. Please find another source for this and stop posting NYPOST links...

As I'm feeling spiteful, I want to add that you can easily block the ads with firefox + ublock origin on Windows. So it's hard to believe it's some technical thing related to securing the ad playback.

I haven't tried spoofing the user agent yet.

But even if it did the trick, I just don't get the reason behind blocking other OSes.

Now that I think of it, they probably just spout out the user agent my browser sent in the error message.

I would be fine with watching some ad supported movies if they let me...

And to add, like many sites, on mobile they try to make you install their app. Would like to just use the browser please...

Have you not read the news before? Don't act like this kind of news about Iran appeared now...

No-one commenting seems to have read the article. They are raising the recommended specs due to desktop software and web sites being more resource intensive.

Edit: to add, I would not recommend 6GB RAM for desktop use to anyone. I would say the very minimum is 8GB nowadays.

If this comes to pass, f-droid might get closed as the userbase dwindles. Many apps will also cease to be developed and be left without updates. You will not get out with just updating to LineageOS. We should be looking at Linux phones at that point.

Never link to fox or the like. Better to copy paste so no one has to give them the clicks or ad money. The link will also boost them in search engines...

Please don't link to nypost - they were all for Trump and are just full of evil BS. Don't support that shit no matter what they post.

It seems they were trying to hide the app being Chinese, added a trusted certificate on your machine without prompting, complaints about not really being open source, etc. It doesn't look very good to me at this point.

Search around a bit and you will find these issues being raised by people, at the same time the answers fron the team seem very dismissive and amount to "please no politics here".

Check the wikipedia page edits as well, weird stuff. I don't like weird stuff when choosing a remote control software.

Rather paying Anydesk than using this. At this point at least.

Edit: to add, rustdesk was using and sending data to a chinese server for some reason. At least they got an EU one instead, at least according to wikipedia, but that could just resend whatever data forward. This is all just what I see on the net though. But, enough for me to choose something else.

Clearly to make people angry

Headline is wrong. Google pulled support for some older browsers off it's sites I guess?

Just change yor search engine...

I guess to avoid algorithms hiding the post?

Use Open Camera, or the GrapheneOS Camera app or another FOSS alternative.

Hospitals making money, that's a fucked up shower thought.

I think this is again overblown. Would be better to ignore some forum posters and not make new headlines that give the impression Jolla is doing something against GOS. It's just sad to me to see all the effort wasted in useless drama. Wish the best to both sides. We should all be happy to see competition in the phone & OS market. Still love GOS.

If anyone's wondering, Ray-Bans are not cool anymore

Americans, are you ok?

I just block the comms I don't care about, can recommend.

Including that AI generated low effort crap. I don't get the point of sharing that stuff, when you can generate your own if you want. But nowadays I don't get many things anymore.
