open source projects still need approvals for merging into a protected branch.

In other words, if you were to open source a project, others can view the code or submit edits to the code on a new branch. Just the mainteners of the repository (you and who ever else you choose to have that power) would need to check that new code and approve it.

If they made a change you don’t want to implement, you just deny the change and no new code is merged.

That person could then (depending on licensing) make a fork of your project that does have their change implemented. This means they would make an entirely new project and they would have the ability to make changes.

You would still have full control on the original project that you created. And no changes would be pushed to an app store.

TLDR: if something is open source, it only ensures it’s longevity and resilience. Open sourcing a project does not mean now that it is changed at the will of the internet without the express approval.

Nice. My first time I didn’t know I’d get that far or even know that the mun was there.

Needless to say I hit it as fast as I could on a rocket that had no landing gear

This is true. Although I think NewPipe has its place for when you don’t want to link your watch history to your Google account. So I use it like private mode for YouTube.

Pro android tip: use NewPipe (or similar app) instead of a browser for YouTube links. Just make sure to set the app to open the supported links by default in android settings.

Kodi can be ran on pretty much anything. So if you make a playlist on there it can be exported everywhere. Works with both plex and jellyfin too.

The original Talos principle and it’s DLC the road to gehenna are some of my favorite games ever.

It was also one of the first games I played on Linux and one of the first I could run using Vulkan.

I hope switching to unreal engine doesn’t take any of it’s charm away.
