   It’s technically problematic. The ISP should have little idea of domains you visit. And they can’t already when everything works.

   I’m not sure anything was clarified. Nothing about that conversation is special or unique?

   Linux has good support for m1 and m2, so for newer devices running a custom desktop would be neat.

   This is how modern x11 worked too since nobody uses software rendering with x primitives anyway.

   “It works” is the bare minimum. Software is maintained for decades and should have a higher bar of quality.

   The ability to install any software would be nice…

   I assume you’re downvoted because Microsoft has to want that.

   I think it’s wonderful, go for it if the few rough areas don’t bother you: https://asahilinux.org/docs/platform/feature-support/overvie...

    Asahi is great on earlier models but it will certainly not support the M5 before its already multiple models behind.

    You can just find adblocker rules for cookie banners.

    I’m not familiar with this but interested in trying it. From what I see they do and you need a certificate from them from a Enterprise Developer Account?

    There are multiple Linux shells that work on mobile today… They could become usable with some investment. The main issue is Android apps that require certified devices, which would also be a problem for truly stripped down Android.

    I was talking about glyphon, wgpu-text, etc.

    They are discussing a Linux kernel feature. Docker/Podman on macOS launch a virtual machine to function.

    I don’t know if there are problems with this tool, but the App Sandbox is very configurable and every app store app is in one. It doesn’t make sense to maintain two different complex sandboxing solutions.

    As usual, clang and gcc have great support, intel ok, msvc no. C11 is probably the newest that’s widely adopted.

    From what I see wgpu isn’t using the same font stack as chromium. I think the Rust community would be against those dependencies. You can just convert bitmap fonts, supporting them doesn’t make sense in 2026.

    I feel like supply chain attacks are the much rarer situation than real world exploits but I don’t have numbers.

    Those games did weird things. Every distro still ships SDL1, x11 didn’t really break API, and requiring a specific driver is obviously broken from the start. I won’t say none of this happens but the platform isn’t to blame there.

    It makes zero sense for traditional distros to have payments. They exclusively repackage software. You want direct to customer platforms (Snap, Flathub, etc).

    I'd have a very good hit rate, it mostly comes down to knowledge of toolkits. There are native apps that use their own toolkit, mostly written in Rust these days, and they always are worse than traditional toolkits (accessibility, resp

    Namespaces are very lightweight though? Like single digit overhead.

    I’ve never used a webapp that felt nicer than native software, it’s always very clearly a compromise.

    Older desktops don’t follow the specs and xdg-open does different things based on the desktop, so they indeed can get out of sync. I’d have to look into your specific case but `gio mime` and `gio open` do the right things.

    It’s a bit different, but WebKit uses Clangs static analysis.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if experienced people left because of policies like this. It doesn’t matter if you are reasonable your colleagues won’t necessarily be.

    We don’t need anecdotes, every single bug is public. Just looking now I see respectful responses to genuine reports. This document is clearly in response to AI slop and spam.

    WPE can be built for Android, but it’s not a user facing browser.
