In the UK we have tap to pay debit cards. Mixing that in with the phone is always weird, especially from a privacy perspective. I wouldn't want that.

Face unlock and fingerprint unlock are the biometric stuff I avoid when I get a phone to improve my privacy. I've not had issues with download speeds.

What is android auto?

Edit: auto = some car integration. Hands free works OOTB for me on GrapheneOS. Not needed anything more.

Seems to be a little bit of an effort to discredit OS projects or products used for it. I've seen it for GrapheneOS, Pixel, Firefox, GIMP.

Not had issues with Signal, but yeah, wouldn't touch Telegram with a barge pole. Probably a CIA honeypot.

A bit rough around the edges, but you'll get better.

[–] AncientMariner 4 points 2 years ago

That's a great way of looking at it.

You're doing an incredible job. Keep going :).

Or botted contents going, or instances going offline. I'm pretty sure it's total. I think world and ml have around 500k posts. There is no way it can be a daily contents when those 2 are the most active.

Erm. It's mostly a minecraft clone originally based on Pixel Perfection texture pack which was open source licence, but is increasingly getting more of it's own art, and some unique features. Burgers to lure villagers for example. I was told bookcases that stored books was in the MineClone2 first. It's a pretty solid game and very playable but certain parts still need to be implemented. Redstone is not quite where it needs to be yet. Mobs are progressing, but need a little work still, but for a FOSS game on a FOSS engine, you cannot go better! :)

I was impressed by how much content and how playable it was, and it goes from strength to strength.

Damn, you might have got hung, drawn and quartered for that comment on reddit ;)

I think it's total posts. If you look at the list of instances and posts at the bottom it matches closer to total posts:

It's still epic and growing both in quality and activity, but it's still got a long way to grow. I feel optimistic. :)
