It's a fancy clock style, the position of the dots acts like clock arms.

You can set the clock style to "empty" and put any other clock widget you like on top instead (I use Geometric Weather). It's unfortunate that it's so easy to miss.
Ok, yeah, upon reflection I think I agree with you.
But a subscription to remove ads? Your app doesn't need an external server to do that.
This is kind of a bad example because the value proposition is different but still very clear - the default version of the app provides a regular income stream to the developers. If you don't like that, you can choose to provide an alternative income stream instead.
It is still unfair because the subscription cost is usually many times more than what the ads will earn for a single user - but it's a matter of quantity at that point, not quality.
The Adobe case is still a much better example, IMO. Yes, they may offer regular content updates worth subscribing for, but their products could still work perfectly well as one-time purchases without access to the content stream. The only reason they didn't is that they don't have enough competition to be worried about customers moving away.
If the app doesn't have network access, though, the OS sandbox should be more than sufficient to keep it secure.
A calculator app should be safe to run without updates at least until the OS APIs undergo a breaking changes (which should take several years at least).
Tl;dr: it's fediverse Disqus 👍 Nice to have!
Most mods I can temporarily do without, but Smarter Scrapper is the exception - life's too short to spend several minutes going through the inventory and manually disassembling lower-tier gear.
I'll check if it still works, if not, time to take a short break.
I mean, the post is about using a Steam Deck. It doesn't get much more effortless than that.
You don't have to go out of your way to install a bleeding-edge distro that needs janitoring.
Are you sure? I thought that what you describe is what packages suck as NikGapps did, while MicroG is a reimplementation of the code. It does call Google webservers, but it doesn't run Google's blobs (which is also why it's severely limited/fragile compared to packages that run them)
Why is this guy still working at 83?
Are you running the container in rootless mode (perhaps via Podman)?
Rootless containers run on an emulated network stack (slirp4netns for podman, not sure about rootless docker), since the runtime doesn't have the privilege to touch the real one - which is the point of running rootless.
This emulation uses a decent amount of memory and torrent clients in particular open a lot of connections. My slirp4netns process eats up several gigabytes whenever the torrent container is active.
I think 'better connected' refers more to feature integration rather than looks. Stuff like KDE Connect.
