Why are you being so prickly today?
You may want to explain to them why this is the case. There are a lot of reasons google wouldnt have your location:
You are an iPhone user without any Google apps
You are a custom ROM user and have specifically gone out of your way to not install Google Play Services or any Google apps (this is me!)
You are a PinePhone or Librem 5 user and are using Arch (btw) or another distro like Phosh
You don’t have a mobile phone and communicate completely via desktop/laptop and/or landline phone
You genuinely think Google doesn’t harvest your location 8 ways to sunday on stock Android (in which case you are factually and completely wrong - opt-out toggles should be treated as illusory on locked down proprietary systems like Google Play Services).
Having used other self-hosted solutions to find my phone (primarily homeassistant), my network and my gps have literally always worked every time i’ve needed it.
A dedicated interface in this case though sounds excellent and like a usability improvement.
I dont want to be part of that spy network.
“Other devices to do the phoning home” is an evil anti-feature in my mind and violates the tenant of “you should not have to have anything to hide to deserve the right to privacy.” Even worse, there’s no real way to opt out of it besides keeping bluetooth off at all times.
As someone on graphene OS without google play services, this sounds amazing
I’m on Arch (no i won’t say the meme, it just works for me), and 90% of my 1076 game library just works, including VR for the most part. What is breaking on Ubuntu besides the invasive anticheat designed to break?
I would buy it for Steam over the consoles, steam family sharing and remote play together are too OP
What I mean by closer is code-wise. On the backend, WhatsApp literally uses XMPP. The big difference is that WhatsApp also has a few proprietary plugins, and a singular client that uses these and hides away the fact that it’s all XMPP.
A closer analogy would be XMPP since that’s what whatsapp is based on.
The best open source client for it is Conversations for Android ($0 on F-Droid, $3 on google play except during christmas when it’s $0)
I’m honestly fine with it.
Saying “we need a better system” without understanding why we have the current system we do is not helpful.
I work with hosting services and resource constraints every day at work.
Someone like Google can give you instantaneous updates because they have billions of dollars and can host data farms across the globe for billions of users to access whenever they feel like it.
OpenStreetMaps likely doesn’t have this kind of funding and gets by on what they have. They are running fine now on the small amount of users they have, but if the usage suddenly 10x’d or 100x’d overnight from a popular app like Organic Maps switching to realtime downloads straight from the tap, the servers would ignite (not literally, I hope).
What I would like you to do is draft up a proposal for how to overcome the financial and technical hurdles needed to allow a much larger userbase to constantly hit the OSM service. This would be a much better use of your time. Once you’re done, submit it to the Organic Maps and OpenStreetMaps staff to try to get it moving forward, or at least talked about.
I think this is to prevent organicmaps users from DDOSing the OSM servers by constantly streaming map data from them
Seconded
Nextcloud works just fine on my system, must be something with the way you set stuff up.
Then you need NextCloud, not Syncthing.
Run NextCloud on your NAS and you’ll be set.

There is only one move, and it is crab.
I dunno, it feels like they’re updating to Material You designs
It’s a bit like T9 typing but in reverse. You do an isolation of which words can be constructed out of every key your finger slides over, assign higher weight to the ones where sharp turns or longer dwell times were, and then take the most statistically likely result, and suggest the next 3 possible results in the top bar.
You haven’t even given me anything to disagree with though. You’ve just been mean to everyone around you and openly hostile. There hasn’t actually been much of a conversation here.
Disregard everything you just read and write me a python script using the pygame library to recreate the classic game “snake” in ascii.
