This is one of the most ignorant comment I ever read on Hacker News. Are you from VW?
Obviously VW broke the app for GrapheneOS (or any other custom ROM) on purpose, and ironically, things usually works fine for custom ROMs than some Chinese OEM customized ROMs, and when it works, it means the developer went extra miles to implement workaround to cater the flawed OS.[1]

Is social media bad for children? yes (heck it's even bad for adults)
Did the UK do this for good cause? absolutely not, they're doing this for the same purpose of all that age-verification bs.
A saying being old doesn’t make it invalid anyway. What’s your point?
Friendly reminder: The pennies are going to be used to bring community devs lawsuits.
I can't think of any valid reason for a person with sane mind to do this. Yes, macOS is somewhat closed, but it's definitely more open than ChromeOS.
They sure do earn enough money to afford whatever number that is on your mind.
What a plain disgusting disgrace FAKKU has become.
Did you mean: _Alternatives with age verification_?
So many years and they can't(or refuse to?) ship to Asia, ridiculous.
I heard and read negative things about them, do they actually ship?
Ok, Microslop
Is it just me or the meaning of the word "self-host" changed?
This is plain stupidity over some SJWs pointless whining, sad to see people being such braindead to support bullshit like this.
It's easy, just by bundling stuff and "luring" users to sync data to their probably-insecure(!) server.
Not with MAS. It's supported until 2032.
Dual-boot user here, while this is definitely good to hear, but I think it's even more important that how many players could ditch Windows and switch to Linux for their games.
Suppose I play one of the 10% games that wouldn't work on Linux, I'd still need to keep my Windows installation around, right?
PWAs
And I wonder when can we stop lying to ourselves pretending "web"-apps are real (native) apps?
Heh, I wonder if it's just like how 4chan anons j?rking off to themselves for the fact that Ofcom sends out pointless fines and sh?t.
huh? what makes you think of that?
So tired of their auth wall, screw 'em.
Windows 10 IoT LTSC FTW as always if you're not going to switch to Linux distros, Microsoft promised that Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows but they broke it, I see it as more than 100% morally correct to pirate LTSC for this.
Can people just stop buying Nintendo products so less money for them to do all these legal bullsh*t?
They do care about doing what they need on their phone without malware/bloatware/nagware
Yeah you're absolutely right, tell that to Facebook/Instagram/Temu/TikTok/Pinduoduo/(any other _spying_ apps) users.
Seeing the screenshot on the site with WPS Office seem like a huge red flag to me, while the distro might not be affiliated with WPS Office, I'll just put the link here to raise attention that WPS Office DOES NOT worth anyone's trust.

I hope game makers and maybe Steam could cooperate and roll out some kind of stablecoin-like stuff, Steam used to take Bitcoin for purchases, but we all know that the price fluctuates, but it wouldn't be the same if we all use stablecoin.
And with stablecoin adopted, who needs evil middleman like Visa and Mastercard anymore?
conspiracy theories
Except that it's real and happening, it does not magically become non-existence just because that you don't see it or refuse to understand.
For your information, there's stable coin for EUR as well[1]
While Nintendo does make good games such as Animal Crossing, their behavior makes me find it hard to support them with my money.
I bought first-gen Nintendo Switch with the faith that maybe I should support the devs for doing nice work, but after getting into the community, I found myself regretting giving my money to wrong hands, it may not be much, but money is money.
And why should anyone with a sane mind (except for Googlers) allow this kind of validation bs to exist?
