How do you mean “you can only install b building it yourself”? I just downloaded it from Github, installed it like any other keyboard and started using it. Works like a charm.
- Comment on Sustaining Proton’s mission over time | Proton 8 months ago:
Wild suggestion here. Type the word “Proton” in your search engine of choice and almost blindly click on the first link that comes up. Take as long as you need.

I gave [Openboard debug]github.com/Helium314/openboard) a try especially because it supports multilingual typing and has additional features. Really happy with it.

Well put.
- Comment on All karma lost since v. 0.19 10 months ago:
I agree completely that this can have negative impact on discussions, stimulate karma farming etc. So I’m all for it to hide it. Would be nice though to completely skip it from the UI (of in this case Boost).

- Comment on Japanese disaster prevention X account can’t post anymore after hitting API limit - The issue has arisen after major Tsunami warnings have been issued in areas of Japan following a strong earthquake 10 months ago:
Problem is that no noncommercial platform would ever have the same coverage as a commercial one like X. People simply would not see the necessity to install it until it’s too late.
- Comment on The EU common charger : USB-C 10 months ago:
I don’t agree. First of all, you always had to be careful to plug it in the right way up and over time the little hooks on the connector always wore out much faster than with usb-c so the cable would come loose and you’d wind up with a phone that wasn’t charged in the morning.
- Comment on Tesla Has The Highest Accident Rate Of Any Auto Brand 10 months ago:
Holy F… this image is from an accident couple of years ago near Baarn, The Netherlands. My brother in law was present at the scene as a fireman. Took them several hours to put out the battery fire. First time an accident ruptured the batteries and no one knew how to handle this type of fires yet.

I hate with the intensity of a million suns that they always have this absolute fucking bullshit argument “For better experience”.

Not supported in my region. Bummer.
- Comment on Honest question: what was Hamas' long-game with respect to kidnapping Israelis? Did they think Israel would just negotiate rather than retaliate? 1 year ago:
My experience is actually quite the opposite. In (real world) discussions I had so far I see that most people just talk about the horrific consequences of this war, with so many innocent casualties on both sides. People are often _not _ picking sides because this is such an old and complex conflict with atrocities perpetrated on both sides. Which imho is the most reasonable thing to do. Yes, what Hamas did on that festival and is it still doing is disgusting, but Israel’s response since then is equally disgusting. It’s just impossible to condemn one side while excusing the other.

Agreed
- Comment on YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it 1 year ago:
Or Revanced, or SmartTube or NewPipe etc etc. Fortunately and thanks to some great devs out there, we’re still able to give Google the big middle finger.
- Comment on The Age of Social Media Is Changing and Entering a Less Toxic Era 1 year ago:
I seriously doubt this. You have to be very conscious to fully understand what it is these large platforms actually do “behind the scenes”. Unfortunately the vast majority of people imo is either completely oblivious or even worse, doesn’t care. I mean look at the immense success of tiktok. Numerous warnings that it’s nothing less than straight-up spyware from China, yet half the world happily continues to use it.
