Ollama is FOSS, SD has a proproprietary but permissive, source-available license, but it is not what most people would associate with “open-source”

- Comment on Google has a fix for all of the broken Chromecasts 3 weeks ago:
Thats the vibe. In this case, it seems like they get more value from the signals they interpret from the devices already out there.
In a better world, these devices (and maybe even the Chromecast protocol) would be opens sourced

I’m considering adding it to the alternatives list I posted. Can anybody else validate their privacy policy? Seemd ok but I’m a bit iffy regarding their use of telemetry. Maybe I’m overthinking it

Thank you. Something I would absolutely consider
- Comment on In Vermont, an ultralocal social network is as popular as Facebook 5 weeks ago:
Understanding the problems you’ve outlined, can the positive functionality of this platform be replicated? I mean, we’re on the fediverse (?) here and it’s a decentralized platform but it’s not geography close-knit. I think having neighbors talk would be a net positive for society but nextdoor obviously seems like it replicates the worst of social media

- Comment on Amazon shuts down Chime, its Zoom alternative 1 month ago:
Chime was a piece of shit. But it had a killer feature. If you had a meeting, and you accepted it, that shit would blow up your screen to join. I NEED that.

If anyone has suggestions, lmk.Gobless

I haven’t seen anyone mention that this could be a massive improvement for persons using adaptive technologies to interact with audio media.

Anyone know how we would be able to continue these products? My understanding is that this charger is 100% controlled by an app. Are there open source alternatives?
