is it foss?

No, but you do get the source code after 12 months of being a paying customer (signing an NDA), though we're considering releasing the code under AGPLv3 if we reach 300 monthly active accounts (we just reached 100 last week) before next year.

as long as it is not fairphone. I am out. I don't want to have to choose between privacy and sustainability.


It won't be Fairphone. Fairphone is very far removed from the hardware requirements listed here https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices They don't seme to take security seriously at the moment, so the chance is low they are going to make the huge leap needed to meet the requirements. Fairphone heavily markets their sustainability but it's very relative. Fairphone doesn't give proper software support. They don't properly keep up with Android updates and also stop giving updates much more quickly than Google (8 years since Pixel 8) and iPhone. Giving proper software support is also part of what makes a device usable for a longer period of time and hence reduces the need to purchases a new device which has an environmental and climate impact. With regards to the hardware longetivity, Google has good repair programs for their Pixels. It's more difficult and less supported to do repairs yourself but it's certainly possible to repair your device.


Isn't Vue also MVVM?


Yes VUE is quite a descendant of knockout.js.

People confidently write strong opinions on the internet.


Sure it is not vibe coding related


Imagine HL3, Portal 3 et L4D3 but all linux only. oh my


Orange Box 2. Then in another few decades we'd get Orange Box: Alyx.


A killer app is a great way to sell a "console". Windows port can come later.


Doubt it, considering Deadlock still only has Windows builds a year into alpha.

Deadlock is an F2P live service game with a (very) Early Access release & development model.

Entirely different situation than bundling a finished HL3 + Steam Machine to achieve big sales.


this would be basically what they did with steam


Unfortunately for Linux, the recent ram price increases are reason not to move (if thinking about a new pc).


> Unfortunately for Linux, the recent ram price increases are reason not to move (if thinking about a new pc).

Can you elaborate on why high RAM prices mean Linux is less attractive? Do you believe a usable Linux environment uses more RAM than a usable Windows 11 environment?


They are assuming you’d build a new machine for Linux, I think.

OTOH Windows 10 support ran out recently so I guess there are a lot of unsupported Windows machines that could be perfectly fine as Linux refurbs.


Why would you need a new PC to swap operating systems?


I plan to do it in elixir too this year :)


Look for Lakh, crore and the whole indian numbering system. It is interesting. Source: I use to live in India.


I switched all my events to Mobilizon and wont look back. It works really well. A few features are missing like recurring events but since it is FOSS, anyone can add it. Feel free to give it a shot.
