Die Zweit- bzw. Mehr-Verwendung ist genau die Lösung des ganzen Problems. Auf einer Seite will man die Sichtbarkeit auf der Mainstream-Site nicht verlieren, auf der anderen Seite nutzt niemand die „Alternativ“-Medien, weil da „nichts los ist“. Wenn auf mehreren gepostet wird, sind beide Probleme gelöst, Abhängigkeit sinkt, Mobilität steigt.
It’s so weird that a continent with the population, education and wealth of Europe struggles with… software? These are all solved problems and software development becomes easier by the day. Come on.
There’s also Volla Phone, with Ubuntu Touch or Android (as well as dual boot IIRC)
Sehr gute Initiative (zumindest laut Post) unabdingbar in dieser Zeit (oder immer). Sollte Pflichtfach in Schulen sein, und nicht nur für Kinder!!
Seems to be a matter of aligning incentives and not a lack of skill, creativity or financial capacity.
Tiktok alternatives can be developed too. The one and only issue is always just network effects.
Uhm all the non right wing parties? There‘s money there too. And it’s not necessarily so expensive.
Zeit das zu ändern!
Ich habe übrigens nicht downvoted.
In principle not incorrect, Europe has rough times ahead and a lot to do to catch up in defense and digital infrastructure, among others.
That said, it should be carefully investigated what leads to actual productivity increase. Just more hours may or may not do that. And compensation should increase accordingly.
Ah yes, the „likely Greta Thunberg“ or other people I don’t like antichrist.
Just create a fact-checking / pro-democracy „AI swarm“. Tired of this fear mongering where apparently only the right wing knows how to write prompts, along with foreign troll farms.
It might sound kinda radical, but I feel that we need a culture shift to people paying for things, even if it’s small amounts, if we want to be truly competitive to „big tech“. Big tech uses venture capital to offer free stuff and thereby establish monopolies. We expect developers to work for free. It does work to an extent, but obviously it’s limited. And also people deserve being paid for their work.
Some work could be done in the area of how the funds are managed and presented, so it’s transparent and fair.
I’d be happy to pay for things like Ubuntu Touch to have quickly a viable alternative to Android and iOS. It’s possible to donate, but donations tend to not be reliable or make development viable at all. Paying for Open Source seems fine, as long as fund allocation is fully transparent.
There’s also Volla Phone (with Ubuntu Touch or dual boot Android/Ubuntu Touch).
Ich habe nie verstanden warum man sich hier so schwer tut, eigene vernünftige Software Plattformen zu entwickeln. Das ist keine Raketenwissenschaft…? Und zb könnte die EU existierende Projekte unterstützen, wie Ubuntu Touch, um eine Alternative zu Android und iOS zu haben.
We need to support Ubuntu Touch. It’s such a promising alternative and it would be a dream to have it at same level and app support as current major platforms.
That’s what „flood the zone“ ultimately means. It’s effectively no different than the other solution usually proposed, which is banning social media. Except than bans can be avoided, people will seek to challenge them, etc.
There are a few competitive devices that even come with Ubuntu Touch preinstalled.
It depends on how you present it. It doesn’t have to be „boring good“. And even then you can still work e.g. on the comment area (reactive, not original content).
It would be interesting to study those cases, to see exactly what failed. We’re not weak and should be able to survive in „globalization“ context. Anyway, now it’s (more obviously) a matter of security too.
