Ah yes, my favorite community, a gender.

The very fact you're able to do all of this is an effect of politics. And there are people that also would like to have similar rights to exist the way the feel is right for them, but they can't.

Wait, what's wrong with TLOU2? I thought it's widely regarded as a masterpiece.

I don't mean offline messaging with messages waiting for the user to go online. I mean the lack of push messaging capabilities, so the user/client doesn't know there is a message waiting until they already go "fully" online.

Unfortunately XMPP died roughly when the mobile devices became a mainstay. The way Google de facto took over the protocol didn't help either, but even without it XMPP isn't fit for the mobile-first world. The client needs to maintain an active connection at all times and there is nothing akin to push messaging, causing quite a significant battery drain. I might be unaware of some progress in this regard but this is how I remember it.

I'd like to at the very least be able to run my own server. Not even necessarily federated with the original ones. Just run my own instance if I don't trust the main one runs what they claim.

Unity or not Unity, I have some important questions to ask. What was that allowed them to make such a move? A flawed license? A flawed law? Is there anything that would prevent other similar companies from doing exactly the same thing? We can hate Unity all we want and abandon it (I encourage it myself too) but isn't the underlying problem still present?

I'm not a lawyer, I don't know the answers. Anyone more knowledgeable here?

I see literally no incentive for them to limit their API to just the Google version of Manifest v3. If I recall correctly they already expanded their implementation to offer more.

If they ever implement WEI (the "web DRM") then it's because the Internet forces their hand. A web browser is only as useful as the websites it can browse. If our banks will demand WEI support Mozilla doesn't have much choice. We need to worry about the website providers changing the web, not Mozilla adjusting Firefox to these changes. In the latter case it's already too late and it's hard to blame Mozilla at this point.

[Gemini] has some (and I cannot emphasize this enough) very basic markdown.

"Markup" would be a better term here. Markdown is a specific markup language which Gemini doesn't use.
