This impacts more than just cheaters. Rockstar apparently didn’t enable Proton support with Battleye meaning many Linux users can no longer play GTA Online. I don’t play GTAO but I am not looking forward to when I can no longer play Red Dead Online.

“As we mentioned previously, BattlEye on Proton integration has reached a point where all a developer needs to do is reach out BattlEye to enable it for their title. No additional work is required by the developer besides that communication.” source: https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/3104663180636096966

I was a child when I got Weird Al’s autograph when he performed at an antique car show with the audience all sitting on grass. He was super nice.

I break the spaghetti into 3 pieces before cooking it as then it’s much easier to deal with. :)

Better to create your own instance then.

It’s about reducing risk not eradicating it and there’s a huge difference in risk in being targeted for legal action due to hosting c/piracy (via caching/mirroring) than from a single piracy post in c/hellokitty.

Yeah I was going to try the app based on all they hype but I noped out based on the trackers and that you have to accept all those permissions regardless if you pay. A dev saying they won’t use the data of paid users – that isn’t the kind of thing I would expect to be enforceable when legally you’ve already signed permissions for the data to be collected/used.

I didn’t find anything against having both a paid app and a free app in the Google’s Policy Center.

While you can’t have two apps called the same thing, e.g., both apps called ‘your app name’, you can have one app called ‘your app name’ and another app called ‘your app name pro’.

I found advice going back years saying one just needs to create a separate project like this. And here is the most recent source I found saying the same thing and it goes further and lists apps that are on the store with both paid and free versions. I also did my own search and found this example: My Lightning Tracker & Alerts is free and My Lightning Tracker Pro is a paid app.

And regardless the dev saying they won’t use the data from paid users – that doesn’t matter to me when legally by using the app I signed away permission for that data to be collected.

Based on this source the issue has been fixed but the instance owners need to update to the latest version of Lemmy (v 0.18) which has the fix.

To see what version your Lemmy instance is on, scroll down to the bottom. E.g., I’m on Lemmy.World which is not on v 0.18 yet.

This is a known issue that has been fixed in Lemmy version 0.18. However some instances are still not updated to that newest version. Once your instance owner updates to version 0.18 this should no longer happen to you. Source

Good that you mentioned that. Personally, I think it’s a fair trade off for Logseq’s functionality.

Here are some links that discuss this including some scripts

• Logseq Markdown Guide
• Moving back and forth between ‘normal’ markdown and ‘bullet-world’ in logseq (Reddit)
• Logseq to Hugo Markdown (GitHub)
  • Currently doesn’t work with Embedded Blocks and Queries
• Flat Markdown to Logseq (GitHub)
• How to create a Logseq graph using existing Markdown files
• Feature request to use Markdown codeblocks for Logseq’s custom syntax

You know how you can breathe out warm/humid air to help clean eyeglasses? Dragons can do that but it’s much hotter and it’s fire.

I switched from Tiddlywiki to Logseq 3-4 months ago and LOVE Logseq.

Part of the reason I didn’t like Tiddlywiki was it kept everything in a single html file (including embedded images – eww) which made it annoying to move information around. (Note there is an option to run your own server which gives you extra flexibility, but I wasn’t interested in doing that.)

With Logseq, it’s separate markdown file per journal entry / wiki page. I like the addons that are available as well as the queries, e.g., {{query (todo doing)}} displays my do now tasks on my journal page.

Both of you rock. I love Lemmy. :)

I’ve been using Logseq for 3-4 months now and I love it. It takes a bit of getting used too, e.g., using the journal, but one can also use it as only a wiki if they prefer.

For me, I tend to do a mix of both. For information I want more organized, I’ll update the specific page and otherwise I use the daily journal.

I also really appreciate the queries and addons.

I also don’t know anyone who uses a Brita filter. I prefer tap water and have never had to boil it but I’ve mainly lived in large cities in southern Ontario, Canada.

However for a few months when I lived in a very small town (< 250 people) and the house I rented got water from a well – at that point I drank only bottled water. The well water turned the shower wall orange so I really wasn’t keen to drink it.

That’s so dreamy that I created a feature request post linking to your comment. (I also did an @ you but not sure I did that right.)

Nice. I actually don’t use Arch Linux but rather Garuda (a derivative of Arch) so I still find the forum helpful. :)
