Veganism is mostly about animal suffering. You cannot have meat at home without suffering, though I agree it can be very much less than current industrial scale of death.

As for mariokart, you could find or fund open source or ethical alternative developers

Same for veganism. Taste is always king :/

Would love to find some kind of rating in Fdroid in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

That is true. I like the proposal of github stars since, even though it is also already botted, github already has a moderation team

Right now even on best Fdroid stores (like Neostore) it's too easy to miss good apps and you mostly get recent releases of very simples apps. Would be cool if we'd make some kind of foss app ratings, does anyone know some ?

Is there an extensive guide on how to protect kids on the internet? (sh.itjust.works)
 

With the years I learned some rules of behavior on internet, but I wonder if there is some kind of extensive guide for parents who are not experienced with technology.

For example, I don't think content blockers are a good idea for teenagers. It works for kids, but teenagers will find workarounds because parents were lazy about teaching them the dangers and instead used a spyware app.

Here is a bad written list of some obvious rules:

  • Be anonymous
  • Use private social media accounts
  • Do not tell any personal information
  • Use ad blockers
  • Learn to recognize ads
  • Learn to recognize AI generated text and images
  • Learn to recognize scam
  • Understand consent
  • Learn to prevent blackmail
  • Learn to prevent grooming
  • Learn how fake pornography is and the unrespectful content

But I wish there was some kind of step by step guide

Any android client that can do both Lemmy and Mastodon? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'd like to use both, with preferably the same account, but mainly the same android app

Do you pay for some pirated contents (sh.itjust.works)
 

Are there pirated contents that you very like and eventually give money to the creator, and where do you find the creators?
