I've been running Sailfish for two months now on a secondary device.

There are native clients for both Signal and HomeAssistant. I don't use HA myself, so I can't comment on how well Quartermaster works, but I haven't run into any (major) issues with Whisperfish.

As for general impressions: SailfishOS feels like the best mobile OS ... of the year 2013. There are a lot of aspects where it was ahead of the other systems back then. For example with the gesture based navigation. But the other systems have caught up in that regard. And then there are the aspects where Sailfish was perfectly average back then. For example how you grant rights to apps (all requested at once, on first launch) or how the emoji keyboard works (like a different language). Design decisions like that aren't deal breakers by any means, you can learn to live with them and work around them if necessary, but they give the OS a slightly dated feel.

That's why Ultramarine exists. It's just Fedora with RPM-Fusion (the non-free repo) preconfigured and the Nvidia drivers preinstalled.

No it's not. Matrix isn't part of the Fediverse. It doesn't use ActivityPub and there is no interop with any other Fediverse service.

That doesn't make Matrix bad, it just makes it it's own thing.

But only in the Roman version. In the original Greek version she was just a monster. That's also the only way the other gorgons make sense (because they are explicitly Medusa's sisters and have the same power set, except they are immortal on top).

Then a couple of centuries later comes the Roman author Ovid and adds a retelling of the story to his works. And just like Hollywood does today with their remakes he decides to add a tragic backstory to his new version.

And now a couple more centuries later a lot of people believe that's the "real" version.

It sort of depends on how your team uses Slack.

The closest thing you're going to get is Mattermost. Mattermost is not European, but it's open source and self hostable. There are multiple managed hosters out there who will sell you an instance for as little as €30 per month.

Homepage: https://mattermost.com/

Example of a manged hoster: https://www.wnm-systems.de/server/mattermost-server/ (This one's based in Germany, but I'm sure you can figure the website out)

Another alternative is Rocketchat. Same deal as before, but hosting starts at €20.

Example of a manged hoster: https://qutic.com/de/loesungen/rocket-chat-hosting/ (also German. I swear, I'm not doing this on purpose, these where just the first ones my search turned up)

The solution you should probably pick is Matrix with Cinny. It's a federated service, so you have to pick a server. Also, adding a second device to your account is a bit more complicated, but nothing you or your group can't figure out (you have to compare emojis between the devices for the keys to sync). Lastly, there is no (voice or video) calling. It's on the roadmap and other matrix clients (such as element or commet) have it, but cinny doesn't.

6. Your server is your algorithm. That's what the local feed is for. If you pick a server that caters to your interest, then the local feed becomes a potent discovery tool. That's even more true for non-English communities because English language content is probably going to drown out everything else on the all/global feed

As does commet. And it also supports voice rooms (which afaik cinny doesn't yet)

Qobuz at least has adopted a clear stance on AI use this month: https://community.qobuz.com/ai-charter

We are strongly committed to fighting fraud and apply a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to AI-generated content and AI-driven streaming activities. Our measures include:

• Detection and monitoring systems for AI-generated content (in development) and fraudulent streaming patterns (effective)
• Right to remove fraudulent catalogs when issues are identified

So maybe give them a couple of months to roll out their promised tech. If this charter turns out to be all talk then fuck'em but right now it's (in my opinion) to early to tell

If all you care about is installing and launching your games, then an GTK client already exists:

Doesn't have galaxy's social features though

No it's not. The title of the article is "Israel Quietly Backs New Gaza Militias Fighting Hamas" (emphasis by me). You might say that that's a distinction without difference, but I think it matters on multiple counts:

1. The term "Zionist" refers to people holding a certain set of beliefs. The group therefore contains more members than the government. Which Zionists are backing the group? The original headline answered the question, the new one does not.
2. Using the term "Zionist" instead of "Israel" implies a motivation for the actions of the government not present in the original title. The new headline misrepresents the reporting it links to. We are talking about the Wall Street Journal here. Do you really think the would argue that the Israeli government funds Arab militias because of Zionism?

That's not the headline of the article.
