Just being open source is not enough to solve this problem. You would need a record of your "home instance" stored somewhere that all Lemmy instances would always have access to it. Ignoring the security implications of that, you still can't use browser storage or cookies for that storage. In browsers, those storage mechanisms are restricted to the websites that stored them in the first place. Browser extensions have their own storage, so they don't have this limitation.

I can't think of an architectural solution to this problem without a browser extension.

The closest alternative that could be upstreamed is what Mastodon does, which is prompt the user to enter their home instance every time they try to interact with something while not logged in. An upstream solution can never be fully automatic like a browser extension, but this may be "close enough."

They also don't magically make lawyers free. No lawyer is going to bother with an EULA squabble pro bono.

Wow, this is awesome. Good work!

Were you thinking about writing up a little blog post or something about how you did this?

CalyxOS (and the supported devices) expose you to a classic “evil maid attack” applied to phones.

As usual if you’re looking to have any security (Verified boot) GrapheneOS + Pixel phone is the only options. I really don’t get it how come people(...) are okay with having a phone with all their personal data and logins without verified boot. Stolen / lost phone and game over.

But CalyxOS focuses on verified boot too?

I really hope this will let my AR glasses work. I was bummed they didn't work with my Pixel 6 Pro, and half the reason I went for an 8 Pro were the initial display out support news from July.

When this workaround was reported to not work, I was pretty bummed, but this seems like a good sign. I'll be building my own ROM anyway, so I can easily set this property enabled by default with no need for root.

It's not an assumption. The vanilla Signal app has code in it that disables itself after a certain period without updates. Unless they removed that from this app, then this will do the same thing.

I spent a lot upgrading my PC, but I ended up being so busy with other things that I really didn't have time to play it. The promise of better looking games and better VR performance excited me, but after it was all said and done, I hardly turn the thing on. For a whole month I just wanted to play on my Steam Deck, and even just these past two weeks, I haven't had time to do any gaming at all.

Maybe your situation is different, maybe not. But think about what your day to day life will be like after you buy it, rather than focusing on game fidelity.

You said you're saving up for a house. Moving is time consuming and stressful, it will likely be a month, 2 months of making arrangements. Will you have time to game?

Moon Channel, a lawyer who dives into some of the legal topics surrounding the gaming industry, most of them Nintendo related. Really well researched information about emulation legality, modding, even copyright infringement Nintendo themselves committed in the 90's (in the Mother 3 video), all sorts of stuff.

He also has a few other things, like a REALLY LONG video on JRPGs, or commentary on MMOs.

Thanks! But I can't take all the credit. Calyx maintains the OTA updater and it's very configurable. Just change the domain name, make sure your webserver has all the right files, and you're off!

I didn't put my actual inquiry in the comment since it would have made it too long. But I wasn't asking them about moving to Squarespace, I was very clear that I am burning a bridge with both of them and have no interest in being a customer of either of them. I told them I've already moved my domains out of Google Domains, and I wanted to clarify if any historical data about me and my domains (domain ownership history, purchase history, receipts, etc) would go to Squarespace. And they replied with what I put in my comment.

If I consider their reply to me, and the stuff I'm reading in the link OP posted, this isn't really a "transition," Squarespace is just buying the rights to all 10M+ domains Google Domains owns. But if Google Domains doesn't own a domain anymore, it won't be part of that transaction.

That's what I gathered, anyway. Hopefully they can be less ambiguous before the transaction actually happens. It will probably take the better part of a year, so there is plenty of time.

Can you explain? I provide an interface for everything available in lemmy.hjson, so I am not sure what else I would add.

I will note though, this is primarily intended for beginners. More advanced users would probably prefer to manage this on their own with Docker Compose, and those people will be very well versed in messing with the environment variables and all that.

If there are variables you want to pass in, you can simply edit docker-compose.yml.template to import an env_file, that way you can pass anything you want into the container.

Yeah, it is pretty weird. I guess the websockets feature was never tested with 100,000% more users than Lemmy had before. We broke Lemmy :P
