Yeah, not handled well. They’re doing slimy corpo bullshit.

On the other hand, I like that they’re open source and don’t block stuff like vaultwarden.

I hope they can take the extra money and make the product better. Cuz I definitely don’t love Bitwarden, but it’s a better alternative than 1Password.

Yes, it should be Nucleus. Them calling it PiedPiper is a propaganda campaign to try to earn good will from people. Fuck Google locking down Android.

which by the way was not expected to give perfect answers to questions

Except that’s how a lot of people treat it. And there’s so way to guard against that.

OpenStreet maps is primarily a data source. I guess you could use the website: https://www.openstreetmap.org/

But they don’t have mobile apps.

Comaps, OSM And, and other apps use OpenStreet maps as their data source, sometimes as their only data source. So if the data isn’t in OpenStreet maps, it’s not gonna be in Comaps. Comaps is basically a frontend for OpenStreet map data.

I love Comaps. I have it installed on my Android phone. I contribute to OpenStreet maps when I can.

But, I don’t think Comaps is a realistic replacement for Apple or Google maps.

One: OpenStreet maps is missing a toooon of locations, businesses and residential addresses. Two: having the enter the address in a non-standard way (for the US) City, Street, Building Number, makes finding things even harder. That’s gonna instantly turn away 99% of people.

I still begrudgingly have Google maps installed on my phone… :(

I also have HERE Maps installed on my phone. It’s way more usable than Comaps and it’s not Google. But, it’s not FOSS and still owned by a big corporation. But at least it’s not (entirely) owned by the US (Magic Earth is). For me, I think HERE maps is a decent step away from Google.

I’ll still keep contributing to OpenStreet maps, hoping one day I can switch to Comaps.

I’m kinda coming around to using Fedora. I use Arch, btw, but Fedora is pretty close to how I configure my Arch system anyway. Plus, Fedora has a little extra polish with the splash screens that I don’t bother with in my Arch setup.

Maaaaybe…

Totally unbiased comparison between alternatives

Does it suck: 4get: no (debunked by snopes)

😆

I wish there was a FOSS or more open option, but damn I’m glad I’m using Kagi.

Yes, I’ve tried SearXNG. No, I don’t think it’s a viable alternative. (yet?)

Dropping X11 seems huge.

Just recently signed up for Qobuz. I’m planning on purchasing albums as I go along so at least I’m left with something the day I decide to quit.
