  • Their points about it not having monetization make zero sense - there’s a bunch of shit on the internet available for free, the fediverse didn’t invent that.

    It has to be paid for, though. Servers, traffic and disk space aren’t free, the volunteers who run instances will need to be compensated once their instances start to become their day jobs and there are legal hoops that some servers will need to jump through when it comes to nsfw content, removing copyrighted content etc. We’re in the early days of the fediverse atm, so it’s interesting to see how this will all pan out!





  • Do you have a problem that they’re “just Oppo” now? I bought an Oppo phone on a bit of a whim when my last phone died and I’m a bit of a convert. The software is great - clean, unobtrusive and full of useful features, the weird features can be disabled. I even switched from Nova back to the default Oppo launcher and it’s fine, certainly not as configurable and I don’t like how the inbuilt search recommends store apps, but it’s perfectly cromulent.

    Given my experience with Oppo I’d have no qualms about choosing Oppo or OnePlus as my next phone. RealMe, BBK’s other brand, I’d need to research first as their value proposition seems even more insane than Oppo…
