_bashskids··on 'I Want to Expose Google's Mistakes': Hacker Blamed for Big Android Fraud
And f-droid better moderates (naturally) than any closed source stores.

Android is bloated of frameworks to enable adware kiddos to earn revenue. If it was the spirit of a regular linux distribution.......

wish it would be helpful for reversing drivers etc.. for oss community
_bashskids··on System76 Thelio: A Review
Good as long as the distribution is compatible with & uses the official repositories, with just a 'few' tweaks & enhancements.
_bashskids··on Ask HN: What VPN service are you currently using?
For privacy host your own on digitalocean. (Don't ask me, haven't done it).

I use VPN for torrenting, which is blocked in my country, use a leecher like seedr & get direct download link. for this proton is enough

_bashskids··on Improving documentation of open source software
Isn't it that what we need is an authoritative wiki?

With one or more pages per piece of software, depending on complexity.

Eg: when you have to know how to cut videos from time1 to time2 using ffmpeg but not much time for reading man pages, such a wiki with tutorials would be of great help.

For ffmpeg, of course, you can find some blog, but not in case of all software.
