I think you're mixing things up a bit. LineageOS, GrapheneOS etc. are not what people refer to as "mobile Linux", mobile Linux would be Ubuntu touch, mobian etc.

Btw. do you know about Sailfish OS?

"Hysteria", that's one way to belittle people.

Google Maps on Android finally picked up a weather feature from the iOS version. in c/[email protected]

Something like this I guess. You can also add the air quality as a layer on top of GMaps. They probably didn't do it this way because "weather" has more than one variable. A rain-radar-layer would be nice though..

I think Voyager is based on the famous iOS reddit app (Apollo?) and is regularly updated. Looks really polished and I'm also using it on android next to sync.

Copilot/Bing Search might put a big dent in that in the future. People will just ask an AI instead of "googling".

They belong(ed) to the german royal house "Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha" and changed their name to "Windsor" after WW1 to not be affiliated with germany anymore. I don't know if that's enough to call them foreign though.

I'm on a german instance (feddit.de) and it's federated with db0.

I think it's just lemmy.world bullshit.

Has anyone read their post about their downtime?

"We shouldn't close registration or limit the amount of communities because we're not even the biggest instance in the fediverse"

Like, what?! The argument was always that they are the biggest in Lemmy! It felt like they were trying to gaslight the users.

Same as the other arguments, like new users being weirded out if they can't register to lemmy.world or apps using them as default. So them being down all the time doesn't matter? Or that lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and closed down registration and new users registered to other instances without a problem?

I'm really weirded out how hard they try to be the "main" thing on Lemmy.
