I’d just email the CEO, media relations, and legal (if you can get all their email addresses), inform them of their non-compliance with the GPL and ask them to resolve this swiftly before it needs to be escalated. Then if you don’t hear back in 2 business days, reply all again CCing someone they might care about: local media to their jurisdiction, the FSF, the EFF, etc.

My level of research was to come to the comments hoping someone had explained the weird numbering jump already.

I watched most of this video (in the background) the other day. I have a technical background, but I’ve never made a “real” game. It looks like a really good tutorial for newbies to making games.

I look forward to seeing the later videos!

Also, I found it an odd coincidence that he chose the exact knight sprite I used for a Scratch tile-based-game tutorial project for a lesson a few years ago. CC0 assets are awesome.

To add to the other suggestion, you could set your default ringtone to silence, then set a custom ringtone for “priority contacts” so they can actually ring you.

Ninite is pretty great, too.

Whoever is the subject of the verb “did”. Whoever did something.

Whomever is an object, so whoever did something to whomever.

In other words, “whoever” does things; “whomever” has things done to them.

I’m really liking Logseq. I started on it instead of Obsidian since Logseq is FOSS. I understand it’s not too hard to switch over since they both use markdown files, granted some scripts need to be run to convert markdown differences between the two.

Logseq’s business model is to charge $5/mo for syncing on their (fully encrypted with a private key) server, but you can use a FOSS syncing solution (or a property one) if you prefer. I pay to support the project and to simplify sync on work devices I don’t have administrator rights on (so most other sync solutions wouldn’t work well.)

That’s because of the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon.

Beehaw defederating with the biggest open signups Lemmy instance has definitely kept it a lot nicer. There isn’t as much content, but it’s also a lot less toxic.

Nice. I should get that. I barely edit videos, but it’s almost always just simple cutting. Not losing quality and increasing file size to reencoding would be great.

It’s not WYSIWYG, though, it uses markdown (like Lemmy/Reddit). I prefer markdown since I don’t want to fiddle with UI buttons while typing, but it’s not what OP is asking for.

OP, why do you want WYSIWYG (on mobile)? I could see it, maybe, on desktop, but a note taking app should be focused on efficient input, imho, so markdown just makes more sense to me. Triple-# for an h3 is way faster than navigating to a Style menu and clicking Heading 3 in a UI dropdown (or whatever).

Regardless, I like Logseq so much that it’s the first open source project I regularly contribute to financially. It’s a game changer for me and managing my ADHD across 6 devices. (Lots of different work and personal machines/devices).

Love it. Trust is also why I’m using Logseq for note taking and “Building a Second Brain”. I’m putting lots of sensitive personal and work information into it, so having plain text files stored locally in a standardized format is critical. My data is completely safe and future-proof.

Ironically, the lack of vendor lock-in is likely going to lead to me sticking with Logseq for a very long time.

I also pay/donate $5/mo to get access to their fully-encrypted cloud sync (and to support the project). I really like the idea of nobody having access to the content of my notes, as would be the case if I used Google Drive or OneDrive to sync plaintext files.

As the article says, in cases where trust is important, open source has a significant advantage.

I think the article does raise some interesting points, particularly around the disconnect in non-technical people having absolutely no understanding of open source software and the lack of funding (including government tax incentives) to creating and maintaining open source software.

There are some projects that are doing well, completely unfunded by corporations, but they’re definitely in the minority. And most of the successful ones have a freemium model or are related to piracy or ad blocking or some other philosophically- or economically-motivated project.

If you are going to post here, please follow the only rule of the instance: Be(e) Kind.

I’m sure you can come up with a kind way of sharing your opinion about this article. If you would rather just post memes without needing to pause to consider the human one the other side of the Internet you’re posting about, then there are many other Lemmy instances that are more welcoming of that content.

Thank you for keeping this a safe space for everyone!

This is what I came here to recommend. Logseq is amaze balls and it’s completely free and libre unless you want to donate to the project to use their built in sync.

I pay for it since I use it on 5 devices, 2 of which I can’t install things on. Logseq doesn’t need Admin rights to install since it’s always a portable app, but syncing is complicated without Admin rights on a device.

Plus, it’s a small team with an ethical business model building this product in beta; I’d probably donate anyway to help ensure it keeps getting development.
