different ui. you can pull in different commits of channels (packages repos) and take packages from them. but it’s opt-in, no lock-file snapshots.

The lock file is the major feature I'm missing.

one more reason for open, adaptible, and secure mobile operating systems.

Even if it would gain mass adoption, how is that preventing end user to bypass the defaults and install some leaky app?

in this case: a distribution with hardened security for military purposes. for example, completely disabled location services, encrypted communications only, etc. + forbid use of unapproved mobile devices while on a sensitive mission.

read somewhere that maybe they’re preparing for OLED screens


How does that argument work?


which will be even worse so you don't get that angry after years of bad design, lol


O from OLED is round. That's why they need rounded windows. /s


All iPhones since the iPhone X (2017), and not the iPhone SE line, has an OLED display. iPad Pro also has OLED.


There's also been rumours of a new high-end OLED MacBook ("Ultra"?) in the works, possibly this year.


If it is that crucial, they should add a few pixels of margin around the entire desktop, and randomly shift everything around. Doing only corners and not straight edges, and doing it by a fixed per-app amount, seems a bit silly.


is there a reason to downvote this?


you didn't explain what the connection is supposed to be. even when asked.


closed source


remap the keys?


there is also a figure of speech used soo often, called metonymy.


what if ads were displayed only on request? “hi, ad page, I need some shoes, let’s go!”


So basically what Google & Amazon does and ban what Meta & Apple does ?


zig can fix everything


what is more damaging, a hammer, a sword, or poison?

i hope i don’t have to go out of my way to explain the analogy.


So social media is pure 'poison' with 0 positive impact but other addictive media like video games are tools with noble utility?

The World Health Organization has reached the exact opposite conclusion.

The ICD-11 doesn't include 'social media addiction.' It doesn’t exist clinically. What they did include is 'Gaming Disorder', classifying your 'sword' alongside substance abuse and gambling.

My point is governments could just as easily justify video game crack-downs with this same logic. Is that something we should be cheering on? Really?


It is not about that. There is surely lots of hypocrisy in particular around alcohol. In most parts of the world TBH.

The discussion is whether companies are treated equally with regards to a particular law.


Ya that's my point. The particular law in question - 'Online platforms that are creating any negative effects on mental wellbeing, like addiction'

This is Fortnite, Minecraft, Netflix, Online Shopping, Dating Apps etc.


what the heck heck
