Vibe Coding: To generate AI slop code without understanding, nor manually reviewing/altering said generated slop.
It literally means, produce low-quality work.
YouTube has been cracking down on alternative frontends.
Vanilla Invidious currently doesn't work well,
so most hosters paused and/or gave up.
Fijxu runs a fork of Invidious,
with their own modifications implemented to circumvent the blocks,
here's the source code if you're interested:
https://git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/invidious
I've got big respect for Fijxu,
he's been doing a very good job of keeping Invidious alive + fighting against the YouTube crackdown lately, basically all on his own.
If you can please consider:
All the above can help Fijxu,
since currently he's mostly fighting a big tech giant all on his own.
It's always sparkling capitalism if you're an Atheist.
Shareholders thank you for buying many of their junk with precalculated breaking points though!
There's 2 parts to this:
Both of which are currently proprietary,
and would need to be written as FOSS from the ground up by reverse engineering the above 2, which would be a huge undertaking.
Also flashing custom Head Unit software to your car will be very hard, is not well documented, and likely will void your warranty, giving low incentive for developers to even attempt it :/
The best you can do right now is aa4mg
(Android Auto 4 MicroG),
which at least allows to replace the proprietary Google Play services with a privacy respecting FOSS alternative and Android Auto's dependencies with empty stub packages:

Full disclosure,
I helped with writing aa4mg :)
I like the electric part.
What I don't like is that it's a steaming heap of spy-ware on wheels with no opt-out ability.
Which may lead to more expensive insurance depending on your driving style, or could be abused for even more nefarious reasons.
I logged in today and was greeted with this advertisement in my notifications.
Seriously Manjaro team,
I've been happily using your OS for the past few years,
but if you jump on the enshittification train and start with pumping out advertisements in my OS,
then it won't be long before I hop to Arch...
Would be handy if they included a pre-written pdf to oppose this proposition + emails or forms to easily submit your opposition to each of the countries.
Instead it's a general "contact your government",
which 99% of normal people do not know how to do, me included.
My "nExT gEn" update experience:
FYI, most mods I installed are from:
Relic Castle,
is the site name that got DMCAd by Nintendont.
Saves you from opening the article.
Nintendo,
reinventing themselves as a law-suite company
which also publishes games on the side..
I hate that nowadays everything comes with pre-installed spyware and that they charge you for it makes it even worse..
Ffs I just want devices that I own to not spy on me, and I can't even buy them anymore..
Each of them require flashing a custom privacy respecting OS onto it,
and that's a real problem..
Nice try CloudFlare,
but I'm still picking Quad9 any day over you:
If Nintendo would invest the money they pump in DMCA takedowns and lawyers in their games instead,
then perhaps they would have a chance to make something equally good as Palworld.
Not modding a Bethesda game is a mistake though.
They're notorious for publishing half assed games with great potential, but tend to be fairly open to the modding community patching things up and enhancing the experience.
If you ever would consider replaying it,
look into TheMidnightRide,
which is a great quality of life modpack for Fallout 4: https://themidnightride.moddinglinked.com/
