Vorbild Skandinavien […] Manche möchten wohl auch deshalb teilweise arbeiten, um die eigenen Lohnverluste zu begrenzen.

Tolles Vorbild. Und ein Schlaglicht darauf, um was es eigentlich geht. Angst und Ausbeutung.

Signal forks can have unexpected behaviours like retaining deleted messages and also they don’t get updated at the same rate that Signal get updated.

There are ways to save messages before they are deleted even if the stock app is used. Do not ever rely on this feature to work in a “safe” way.

Every couple of years I hear a story about hackers disturbing signal with backdoors, which would be impossible or very hard to be done If they blocked third party clients. (Ex: 1)

That is a problem the users who prefer 3rd party clients have to deal with. Obviously if you care enough to not use the official build, you of cause have to take care of using a trustworthy source. That is not “your problem” though.

The amount of people who use third party Signal clients are very few anyway.

That sounds a lot like “I don’t use it, so none else needs it either” argument. In my opinion, none of your arguments above are a good reason to combat 3rd party clients.

Not in all situations. And in a way a user will not be aware of. The service or website can define what type of passkey is allowed (based in attestation). You may not be able to acutally use your “movable” keys because someone else decided so. You will not notice this until you actually face such a service. And when that happens, you can be sure that the average user will not understand what ia going on. Not all passkeys are equal, but that fact is hidden from the user.

In addition, Huawei now blocks sideloading Android apps to promote its ecosystem growth.

Well looks like I’m never going to get a device from this manufacturer then.

Ja in der Tat erstaunlich. Eventuell wird beim Thema Mord ja doch ein bisschen ermittelt.

Here a a few things that I miss from OsmAnd:

  • adding more than a handful of routing points is tedious
  • you cannot plan partially or fully independent from existing roads
  • no way to save and restore a planned trip
  • no overlays for hill shading or incline visualization. Very useful for assessing the effort of a route.
  • no public transport support. Very useful for planning a trip with transitions.
  • no rain radar
  • satellite view

Zitat aus der Statistik:

Auffällig ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass die Zahl der Menschen, die mit einem Pedelec tödlich verunglückten, je 1000 Pedelec-Unfälle mit Personenschaden in den letzten Jahren deutlich zurückgegangen ist: 2014 waren es noch 17,4 Getötete je 1 000 Pedelec-Unfälle (gegenüber 7,9 Getöteten im Jahr 2023). Auch dies ist unter anderem auf das sinkende Alter der Verunglückten zurückzuführen.

Es ist also doch möglich proportionale Angaben zu machen. Ob es wirklich am Alter liegt wurde würde ich aber mal als Spekulation einordnen.

Organic Maps is my goto solution for car navigation because it is very quick, responsive and does not require an high end phone. It just works. However for anything more advanced than that (e.g. live location sharing or recording, planning a hiking trip, navigating mountain bike trails, contributing to OpenStreemMap), OSMAnd is still without contender.
