You can play bedrock on Linux using either the mcpelauncher or setting up waydroid. Both require you to have purchased it via Google play.

Quite. Go to the big services that know how to moderate and maintain (and importantly pay for) a public square. But also encourage the interesting ones enable federation for wider coverage.
There are some advantages to algorithms for discovery - it’s certainly is more user friendly. It’s just a shame they tend to enshitify or become toxic. Bluesky seem to offer an API of sorts to plug in feeds you create. Perhaps open algorithms are more accountable?
My Organic maps has a download screen for the maps which regularly update outside of the app itself.
I think you underestimate how much storage those tiles take up compared to the vector map data.
The data updates are handled separately in app
Won’t it? I thought you just needed to enable the apps you want. My fdroid AntennaPod is certainly usable in it.
Did you sparge the grain when you were done mashing?
That actually looks like it could be quite fun. I enjoyed Wandavision more than most of the TV output.
Self hosting takes time and energy and most open source developers join projects because they are interested in the project not becoming admins. On top of that building a CI system is an expensive undertaking when a lot of hosting solutions provide a fair amount of compute for free to qualifying projects.
I tried all sorts of port forwarding tricks to get wireguard working on the VM that runs my HA instance to no avail. The trailscale solution works really well. The only real problem I had was magic DNS conflicts with DNS66 on my phone (which I use for ad blocking). In the end I just used a hardwired VPN IP for my HA connection.
Buy games from indie developers on platforms like itch.io. You may have a negative view of the other people involved in funding and marketing a triple AAA game but they all contribute and get a share of the retail price. You don’t get to pick and choose who deserves to get their slice.
It’s interesting they’ve gone from a simple reskin to a downstream fork. I’m guessing there won’t be much of value to find though.
Basically your only other option is to find the keys for each BluRay you own yourself. I did go through the hoops a while ago and wrote it up: https://www.bennee.com/~alex/blog/2011/04/18/playing-blu-ray-under-linux/#playing-blu-ray-under-linux
However it’s a pain sourcing the encryption keys you need for each disk. While I work hard to prefer FLOSS apps over their propriety equivalents in this case I’m happy to pay the small fee for a perpetual licence of MakeMKV.
It works well enough with the rasbian OS derived from Debian. However pure Debian currently doesn’t have all the user space components to take advantage of the video decoder needed to play things smoothly. Currently I have Bookworm installed on the system but I run Kodi out of a docker image: https://github.com/stsquad/dockerfiles/blob/master/distros/raspios-bullseye/Dockerfile
Is the hardware support for Raspberry Pi still out of tree or can I use an upstream build now on my Pi 4?
Oh I don’t mind it too much but I have a rich shell history 😀
Certainly when using the newer options things are more consistent easy to follow. However it’s reputation for complexity isn’t underserved because Qemu is very flexible in what it can do.
Libvirt/qemu with either virt-manager or cockpit to control them. Alternatively there are various wrapper projects for qemu that hide the complex command line from you.
Generally the ROM if it exists is very minimal and contains just enough to load the next stage of the boot process. Some devices can boot directly from flash and generally you want the ability to update the boot chain because these things are never perfect on release.
I work for a company that makes money supporting FLOSS. Our members pay fairly hefty membership fees because they have a vested interest in their chips being well supported by Linux and the wider ecosystem. That money funds common projects they all benefit from all well as numerous maintainers in projects keeping those projects ticking.
The engineers on the project I mostly work on are predominantly paid to work on it. We value our hobbyist itch scratchers (~10% off contributors) but it’s commercial money that keeps those patches reviewed and flowing.
