Vivaldi also kept Manifest V2, so old extensions do keep working there. They also have a mastodon server, and email/calendar/feeds, so they offer more out of the box than Firefox. Lots of projects built on other open source projects like Chromium and KDE do offer legitimate alternatives.
OSM from F-Droid is the way, but there are a lot of apps now based on OSM data that are also very good like organic maps. It can be hard to switch over saved data, and you might lose some of the conveniences, but it’s manageable or even better for some uses like hiking.
I switched to Vivaldi and Ecosia, barely notice a difference.
I updated my EOL’d Stadia controller to get bluetooth support and it works fine with the deck. The Luna controller also works well with the deck and has an android app that can update the firmware.
He’s probably right, the contrast with the PS5 pro for a similar price will be apt even if most consumers might not notice immediately.
It’s also close to what a similarly priced PC would be.
Musk, Tim Apple, and Jensen’s actions would beg to differ.
Even for that LoRa can basically only act as a bridge, unless LoRa radios start being built into phones instead of being separate devices.
LoRa has been around for a while trying to break through with different devices, some of it does seem useful, but it’s a tough sell to invest in something without knowing where the network will go. A carrier model or something else, maybe subsidies, is needed.
The dev made money from at least the iOS, Android and Steam Greenlight versions. They also offered it for free.

Curation and encouraging PC ports when the store was relatively new != exclusives.
Not really, they’re the villain for doing exclusives. Steam never did exclusives, at least not with 3rd party devs.
Steam reduced their cut to 20% for the biggest publishers, let’s see any of the others do that. They also allow other stores on the steam deck. They also allow steam keys and shouldn’t demand MFN pricing.
Their cut is worth it to users for the same reasons as an iOS and Android user might say, except when it comes to switching platforms, your steam games can come with you to rival platforms and not just friendly ones.
While I agree with what you’re saying, this is letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. Funding sources and incentives also matter, GPL projects don’t enshittify, but it can be harder to build a community with those developers who would like a more permissive license, while most but maybe not all Apache projects can remain faithful to their missions and not enshittify. More competition means I as a user can choose from features and other things too, and not just the license.
