A federated internet archive, I’m wondering whether I should build it myself. With so many journalists being banned for reporting the gaza genocide we need more ways to combat censorship.

      To be fair, it’s not much of linux’s fault, but mostly due to shitty hardware restrictions and proprietary drivers

          Yeah, from what I understand, hardware manufacturers need to ensure that no one uses the mobile chip to send on reserved frequencies. And the way they typically do that, is with a proprietary, undocumented driver for the mobile chip. So, you basically need to reverse engineer that for each mobile chip, to be able to make calls and such…

      Same. I’ve got an FLX1s, and I’d love to recommend it to people, but it’s just too buggy. It’s got a lot of potential, and I’m still excited about the project, but I have to reboot the phone a couple of times a day because it just keeps buggin out.
