my mastodon

Is there any reason to use this over Librewolf?

average Phoronix forum user unfortunately 💀

but Phoronix' journalism is good

(which is why I only read the articles through my RSS readers and never go on the site or associated forums)

They probably just want to cut down dev costs by outsourcing to unpaid interns volunteers

unfortunately Futo seems to only be source-available and not libre software :/

though I can +1 the Heliboard recommendation! idk when they added it but it finally has a multilingual keyboard function :)

I used to use Simple Gallery and later Fossify Gallery. Now that I have a device new enough for Accrescent to work on it I discovered Aves Gallery Libre.

It's much nicer and polished in many ways but I do miss some features sometimes

that's the thing though, it strips you of the options the four essential freedoms provide.

and imo it's not rly an argument. Libre software is free as in freedom and not necessarily free as in beer. You could license it under the (A)GPL, charge for downloads in the Play store or for compiled binaries on ur website and ask for donations on F-Droid.

You could even do a freemium version where some features are locked in the binaries you distribute and need a license from ur website or smth (for those who don't want to use Google Play). (iirc SD Maid 2/SE does this)

Librewolf is also available as a Flatpak

iirc with OpenSuse or Fedora, Secureboot works quite easily too
