You could finally visit the only real Legoland in Billund of course!

Linux Genuine Advantage

Maemo and later Meego yes... I had a Nokia N900 and it was an awesome phone. Basically Debian in your pocket, easily accessible terminal with root etc.

Using Calibre you could probably glue that together. I wouldn't want Android on an ereader personally.

It's not open source but it is easily rooted and you can install custom add-ons or even replace the os.

If it's important that it keeps running then it should just be redundant and taking one node down for an update shouldn't be an issue. I know this is wishful thinking for a lot of services but I refuse to be on call for something if the client can't be bothered to make it redundant.

Well it's not 2024 yet.

Well you could, it's just the usual pros and cons. How will you get momentum and community around the fork and how will you get a sufficient amount of instances to switch to a fork to have any impact. Not sure we're at that point yet.

Edit; checked the PR you referenced and it's just a stylistic issue apparently. While a bit pedantic imho, I think a fork reaction to this is overblown. It was merged later in another PR; https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2032

I didn't like it either. Luckily you can disable it in settings; Settings shortcut: General > Expanded Toolbar

Nice example!

I think proxying everything through lemmy would have a pretty big bandwidth/scalability impact. I expect the lemmy clients dont send any unique user info on these image requests so not sure how useful it would be as a spy pixel? Maybe I'm missing something :-)

Dev has confirmed multiple times that trackers are not even initialized if you pay to remove the ads.

For me getting back into LEGO really helped, it's a nice and relaxing activity. Also depending on your interests a hobby like flying FPV quadcopters can be a lot of fun. Forces you to go outside too which is always good :-)
