Nice writeup! Agree with the ownership part absolutely, and the alternative software is quite good indeed XD

Just dropping in here that you should absolutely try Nicotine+ for finding basically anything

Hillarious isnt it!

The point is that you pinned a specific commit instead of a branch like main

And yeah calling dependency resolution fragile is weird. It is not an actual package manager, just a download tool.

Crazy, izzy is more strict??

There are a ton of llm assisted apps on f-droid, crazy many. In fact, Claude is perfectly able to make reproducible builds, unlike many developers

I think the localsend protocol is nice yes

The apps work nice too

But it is written in dart and flutter, which makes it pretty heavy and not native. The android app is 46MB wich doesnt sound much because android apps generally got more and more bloated… but for comparison iyox wormhole is only 14MB.

Syncthing-fork is bigger, basic-sync a bit smaller. But still, a small CLI could be under 1mb and run on way more devices

Sorry to say but I found KDEnlive to be absolutely unintuitive. Niccolo Ve’s Plasma Studio looks fucking amazing though, still a one-italian-project though

VLC 3.0 when

It was 3.0 right? Wayland and HDR and all the other stuff that is in MPV since forever? I use Haruna btw

Use Celluloid

What a joke. There are at least 4 FOSS telegram forks on F-Droid and IzzyOnDroid
