Hey @TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml, One more thing. I’m planning to install lineageos first before using your guide, is that alright?

PS: You should host your guide in github or similar for easy access and to make it readable.

“The upstream source code is not entirely Free” What does this mean?

Thanks

Thanks, I’ll decide which ones better.

wait, isn’t VLC a video player?

I bought a phone recently, I could definitely use this to venture out to find cool places off the grid. find meeting places without surveillance.

But I do have a few good small creators that I want to ask to come over. Mirroring their content can be good but if they’re mirroring and not interacting at all, It can make a toxic wasteland on the fediverse. Some youtuber that has been in the fediverse has stated this problem of “inactive-mirrored users”.

you mean content variety? There’s loads of content out there which is mostly tech and political stuff, especially on peertube. Most people would find it appealing to come over if they see content their interested in, whether it be vlogs, commentary, science stuff, music, gaming, art, etc. or you know, the normal content.

I don’t think it makes much sense to try to persuade people to join Fediverse unless one notices that they are really interested in it.

Much on point. I guess instead of persuading people. we just have to tell them what fediverse is (e.g making a video on it) and let them do what they want with that information. whether they join or not is up to their choosing.

I didn’t make my account there, but feel free to download my video and repost it there if you like. I won’t be making another account anytime soon.

You’re welcome!

I’m joking about myself. I wasn’t joking about people with autism, this is your usual self-deprecating humor.

yeah I know. I realized that the middle ground I’m talking about might be bad for everyone and not a solution because I’m trying to solve piracy, and people who want to pirate will pirate anyways.

after reading more into things I’ll be taking back what I said before in this post as I found that it might be detrimental to the community.

I meant this one:

FYI there is no Free Software (or open source) license that restricts the user’s freedom to modify or distribute, because those are core tenets of both the Free Software Definition and Open Source Definition

I already know GPL exists and if I made any kind of software I would in fact use GPL. some people just don’t like the idea of having their software freely distributed and sold (even though people will pirate anyways). that’s why we should have a middle ground for that in order to introduce those people into open source.

what’s the name of the license?

Anyway, PC’s has all the features we need for handheld gaming. controller support. lan. etc. back then the idea of having a phone that doubles as a handheld console is really exciting to me. do you remember about the xperia play? The unique looking devices really fascinates me. I’m a big fan of the handheld form factor. if something like that exists, I can see myself using it to write my diaries and take pictures, use it for navigating around the city, communicating and play my rpg games.

Why do you think it would be better than the Switch? Multiplayer compatibility, almost everyone runs steam either on windows, mac and linux. You can play with most people. and A large catalogue of games from years ago. all games are available other than console exclusives.

~~Personally, I think what makes the console experience is just make some games exclusive to the console. I don’t think that’s what they really want, according to myself; an ex-handheld/console gamer. these machines are powerful but not utilized to the fullest and they don’t allow it even if it can be done. what we really want is to be able to play with most people on other platforms, have more cheaper games, more freedom in customizing our machine and maybe play retro games with an emulator. these things are only possible on the pc. not on the handheld just because gaming console always has an closed ecosystem like that of an iphone. handheld gamers are kind of oppressed in this way. which is why if a company like valve made a handheld PC. this would not only change linux gaming. but it will affect the whole handheld gaming world.

did you forget about him?
