The upgrade process on Kinoite (KDE Atomic) was extremely fast and smooth. Fedora has always been among the most reliable when it comes to upgrades in my experience.

Google starts selling refurbished Pixel phones in c/[email protected]

The prices are insane though. $539 for a 6 Pro that has already received its last major update and is only getting 2 years of security updates. $629 for a 7 Pro that adds one more year of updates. Plus the 7 Pro can be bought new with 4 times the storage for less money.

The Best Lemmy Client in c/[email protected]

Voyager is definitely the most polished and great for those who used Apollo for Reddit. It is also very actively developed. For the Android users who do not mind the iOS aesthetic, Voyager is one of the few Lemmy clients on F-Droid.

Thunder is also a great option. I personally prefer its UX more than Voyager, but it is not quite as polished.

Proton is still a for-profit company. However, there is now the non-profit Proton Foundation that is the largest shareholder of the Proton company (not necessarily majority shareholder).

Plus, non-profits are not guaranteed to be positive. See OpenAI for example.

Edit: Grammar

The foundation is the largest shareholder, but Proton has not specified whether it controls a majority.

“I am still alive”: Users say T-Mobile must pay for killing “lifetime” price lock in c/[email protected]

But T-Mobile is still offering the service, so it is not the lifetime of that either.

T-Mobile promised users who bought certain mobile plans that it would never raise their prices for as long as they lived—but then raised their prices this year. So it's no surprise that 2,000 T-Mobile customers complained to the government about a price hike on plans that were advertised as having a lifetime price lock.

It is so bad, they can not talk about.

Syncthing for Android discontinued in c/[email protected]

A GitHub issue was opened for Syncthing-Fork, so it will be worth watching that to know whether it will continue to be supported.

Per the GitHub readme:

This app is discontinued. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version. Interactions (issues, PRs) are limited now, and the entire repo will be archived after the last release. Thus all contributions are preserved for any future (re)use. The forum is still open for discussions and questions. I would kindly ask you to refrain from trying to challenge the decision or asking "why-type" questions - I wont engage with them.

The reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires even without doing much, if any, changes.

Thanks a lot to everyone who ever contributed to this app!

This is extremely disappointing news. I have been using the Syncthing-Fork version, but since it is based on this app, this may be the end for that app as well.
