I logged in today and was greeted with this advertisement in my notifications.
Seriously Manjaro team,
I've been happily using your OS for the past few years,
but if you jump on the enshittification train and start with pumping out advertisements in my OS,
then it won't be long before I hop to Arch...
That would be an anti-virus.. x)
Since it would remove spy-ware from your computer.
No, instead they raped his rights with some ToS..
I've been happily using the clock app that comes embedded with LineageOS for years now.
If you don't want to switch to LineageOS,
then you can still find/install it from ApkMirror:

I like the hammermann concept the most,
it looks more professional then Diego's,
very clean and modern looking :)
The more I hear about Android 15,
the less excited I get for it..
Imagine living in China,
where the government is able to request data of each company in their country.
Imagine that China would setup an AI/LLM,
to feed all private chat data into it,
and automatically flagging opposition of the government regime.
Imagine a white van appearing in front of your house and disappearing into a concentration camp because you got flagged after expressing your opposition to the government to your mate in a private chat.
All collected data can be abused like that,
or by other means (E.g. a country at war gets hacked, which could lead to leaking critical private information on political/defensive decisions).
To me the question is not if data collected on you will be abused, but rather when will it be abused?
Just having it stored somewhere imposes risks.
Privacy should be a basic human right.
Data collection could be massively abused by oppressive governments.
Not caring about it = Not caring about your rights.
OP I agree with you, it's a great idea imo.
I've been a moderator before on a Discord server with +1000 members, for one of my FOSS projects,
and maintenance against scam / spam bots grew so bad,
that I had to get a team of moderators + an auto moderation bot + wrote an additional moderation bot myself!..
Here is the source to that bot, might be usable for inspiration or just plain usable some other users:
https://github.com/Rikj000/Discord-Auto-Ban
I think it will only be a matter of time before the spam / scam bots catch up to Lemmy,
so it's good to be ahead of the curve with auto-moderation.
However I also partially agree with @dohpaz42, auto-moderation on Reddit is very, uhm, present.
Imo auto moderation should not really be visible to non-offenders.
I own a non-chinese EV and it currently is an unavoidable, unregulated, heap of spyware on wheels, all of them.
The only benefit it has is my data is going to data brokers in the EU, which has some privacy laws, not the Chinese government, which has the ability to request any and all data from all companies in their country.
Playing some Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon,
through Citra Canary v2798 with:
And I gotta say,
I'm happily impressed by how good it looks!
Apart from the low resolution font/texts,
I'd forget that I'm playing a mobile title from 2015 😄
Edit:
I disabled the High Resolution Textures,
because they cause:
I figured out a way to "easily" get them in single-player.
Recommended prerequisites (Not so easy):
Cheese method for Alpha Frostallion:
Install one of following mods:
They both will show you the passive skills a pal has,
allowing you to check em out before catching the pals,
so you don't waste sphere's
Travel to Frostallion,
check his passive skills without battling,
if they're not as desired, exit / re-enter your world,
that will re-spawn / re-roll in a new one with new passive skills, repeat till you find a desired one.
Start battling as soon as you find a desired one,
took me 20-30 minutes for mine.
There will be a large / tall ice rock in the area
(Coordinates X: -349, Y: 519),
just start circling around it,
always keep the large / tall ice rock between you and Frostallion
Eventually he'll climb up the ice rock,
and will fall down from it eventually as well,
which will hurt him through fall damage for about 300 - 3000 HP!
Rinse and repeat until his HP is low,
then start throwing your legendary sphere's 😄
I care for matray to give me news on OS updates,
not to give me advertisements.
