    I disagree.

    1. OP wasn’t at all specific about what kind of transit app they were seeking, as others have noted.
    2. Whatever kind of privacy-friendly transit app they want, F-Droid is exactly the place to find it.
    3. There are only a handful of each type there. Comparing that to an ocean is absurd.
    4. Many people don’t know about F-Droid at all, and just need a pointer to it.

    Despite disagreeing, I appreciate that you used your words. Thanks.






  • Its an actual term

    It’s a phrase coined very recently based on a misconception, and happened to be picked up by some online publishers. That’s all.

    Saying “its an actual term” [sic] just attempts to give it an air of legitimacy, without actually meaning anything.

    The phrase itself is not only ignorant, but also insulting. The gamers it refers to are not Baby Boomers, but Generation X, which had nothing to do with the damage to society that Boomers are famous for and most of us in younger generations are suffering from now. (Housing crisis and out-of-touch legislators, for example.)

    It was a few years ago when I read Signal’s statement about this, so I’m afraid I don’t have a link for you.

    I believe you when you say Molly functions, but it’s important to note that without Signal’s blessing, anyone using Molly can be locked out of the network (and their chats and contacts) at any moment. It’s not the same as official interoperability.

    I wonder if the Digital Markets Act will eventually force it.











  • Then you purchased a wrong game

    Perhaps.

    But you’ve made a lot of assumptions in your comment, and you’re mistaken about most of them.

    I played the side quests. Many came with a good backstory, but that is not gameplay. Nearly all were copy/paste instances from a small pool of tedious tasks. There were a few memorable exceptions, but very few.

    I explored the world, as much as one can “explore” something that is fully labeled with point-of-interest markers. They lead the player to a repetitive handful of uninspired encounters, cloned over and over again.

    It has plenty of other flaws as well. If you loved it, then I’m happy for you, but I found the gameplay boring.

    The strengths I found in The Witcher 3 were its story, lore, characters, and Gwent. Not its gameplay.

    Meanwhile, Gwent is a surprisingly well-designed strategy game. So much so that it ended up spun off into a stand-alone version (although I don’t know how good the spinoff is).

    To each their own, I suppose.
