One recent report raised troubling questions about potentially systematic efforts to advance antisemitic and anti-Israel information in Wikipedia articles related to conflicts with the State of Israel.

Of course they'd use the anti-Israel crutch.

Phew, for a moment I thought he'd give a lecture on the anarchist.

Many APIs Android apps can use are unavailable to PWAs. Also PWAs typically require server infrastructure to at least load once. The author of my favourite open source unit conversion calculator shouldn't need to maintain a web server so I can use their app.

But yeah, for use cases that require a server anyways and don't need elaborate mobile APIs, PWAs are probably the way to go.

It's nice to hear from Mark Murphy on this. He's a legend in the Android space.

Yup, makes sense. You do it in the beginning and then you forget about it. Until you change a phone. 😊

It's not a dev option at the moment. It's a permission setting and it doesn't require enabling developer options.

OK, this sounds problematic. I don't see any obvious language for opting out and it doesn't seem there's intent to opt out. There's probably going to be a dev option to allow it but that would probably still make installing from sources like F-Droid impractical.

Sounds like a hardware problem.

I feel like this problem should be solved via some form of federation within Jellyfin, but if Jellyswarm works well enough.. I'm not gonna make a fuss.

Exactly. In the context it was discussed, it was a white thing.

You should see the CNN segment where a white lady argued with the black host that slavery wasn't a white thing. CNN, not Fox.
