MicroOS (and its flavors) update the same way Android does; as a full image

They don’t. They update with regular packages. The updates are atomic though and are only applied at next boot, so there’s less of a risk of weird breakages.

Which is at least less than all the other big platforms are taking.

Or maybe the original post was simply muted for a different reason.

I don’t know if reader mode is available on the android in-app browser as I don’t use android

It is.

Personally, I would suggest antiX Linux. It is well known that the antiX name is supposed to stand for “anti politiX”

There’s also been huge waves of spam account attacks on Mastodon recently.

“Weather chaos” is one hell of a euphemism.

Not inherently. But since both Mastodon and Bluesky use some sort of public protocol, it is possible that people will develop some bridging software that allows both protocols to talk to each other. I think some people are already trying to build something like that, but I have no idea how well it will work/what the trade-offs will be. Maybe not every feature can be easily translated between the protocols.

But they’re (allegedly soon) federated and say they want to give control of the protocol over to an independent standards body. So like, half of the stuff you’re saying might not even really apply here.

I’m curious what lesson learned from twitter easily also applies to bluesky, as that’s genuinely not very clear to me.

But with AI while it still has problematic aspects, it also has a lot of useful applications.

Ah yes, stealing content en masse and polluting the whole internet with junk content in the hopes of being able to monopolize entire industries. Peak usefulness.

(There are of course many useful applications of AI in general. But they also tend to not burn through as much energy and processing power as LLMs)

Hmm, I don’t seem to have that.

Android - F-Droid - 1.35.0

Just browse the instance list

Sorry to be a little dum dum, but what/where is the instance list?

I don’t update daily, but rather every once in a while

Sounds like Slowroll could be for you then. Even if TW is updated infrequently, it’s still a roll of the die whether that specific snapshot you will be updating to will be one of the rare ones that have some issues. In theory at least, Slowroll should fix that by trying to handpick some select promising snapshots. Whether that works out as intended in practice will remain to be seen of course, as backporting some security fixes ca of course also introduce potential instabilities.

When you need a doubly-linked list in Python, you can use the deque data structure, which is in the collections module

When do I need a doubly-linked list in Python? Whenever I have something where I can often expect to interact with the first and last element of it? Always, because it’s more efficient than shifting the entire list around? Something else entirely?

Huh, seems like you’re right or at least I couldn’t find anything like that. I feel like theoretically ot should be able to do that, so I’m gonna snoop around a bit more and maybe file an issue. Doesn’t help that kbin’s UI is still pretty atrocious at the moment, but the project is still fairly young and developing at a good pace at least.

You can follow people and do regular posts on kbin in case you didn’t know yet.
