mhm, and how would the distribution inside an LLM work? Are those code snippets CoPilot et al produce come with dedicated license sections?

And regarding how it would help selfhosting the code: it wouldn’t be on the GITHub servers owned by Microsoft, which owns/operates CoPilot. Its akin to feeding the LLM directly by pushing it to their servers.

Whoops.

My deepest apologies. I only skimmed it and didn’t realise that what I linked was the mail repository.

So yeah, the calendar has no sources for whatever reason.

How would that work? Proton is swiss and CIA is 'murica?

You go here: https://github.com/ProtonMail/android-mail

Yeah I don’t understand why they don’t have a codeberg or similar that they host themselves.

It would have only taken you two clicks to see if the source code of proton calendar for mobile devices is released or not.

spoiler: Yes the code for iOS and android is on GitHub.

Thanks for the troubleshooting, I will consider those steps.

I had neither…

Both have great games.

Sorry but I have to say this, that we are not coming to an agreement and are far off by miles. So let’s just rest this comment thread for good. What do you say?

Oh so that’s still a thing that you need to set every file extensions and protocol separately to the other browser. Yeah that is stupid.

And it only takes a minute on Ubuntu if you Know what you are doing. The regular user probably only see that their applications are slow to start and need to search the internet why, if they care at all.

And why is that? Because Canonical doesn’t tell you that you installed a snap, Microsoft is “honest” enough and tells you that they are shitty and want you to use Edge.

Canonical is a for profit company though.

And yeah I always mix up those two words, so thanks.

Can you explain why it makes perfect sense?

That’s your pejorative to believe that, yet I am quite sincere when it comes to the fact that Canonical forces Snap on Ubuntu Users when debs were totally fine as other Debian derivatives use them with no issues.

And as you can see on other comments I’m not alone with that stance.

If I were giving you €50/month, and then one day I decided to give you USD$55 instead, am I “forcing” you to accept US currency?

Yes, you are literally forcing me to accept your dollarinos, which, unless I exchange them MYSELF, are USELESS!

You provided me, until an arbitrary cutoff day, always the negotiated currency (deb package) but then you, out of the blue, decide to change it to your currency (snap package).

If Canonical want to do their own package, why don´t they just make a new branch and ditch Debian all together? I am not aware of ANY downstream distribution to ditch their upstream’s package format, except Ubuntu. Well and those that lie underneath Ubuntu and ditch snap for the super upstream’s (debian) package format.

You can always reject my offer. You can ask someone else to give you €50/month.

so either suck it up to Canonical, or go to another distribution provider? Thats your solution to your not perceived enforcement of snap?

They don’t. But Canonical will no longer be providing debs in primary Ubuntu repositories

so they are forcing the users to adopt snaps.

Canonical provides transitional packages for packages that they’ve decided to provide as snaps. They’re not forcing anyone to use snaps, they’re saying “if you want the default we provide you, we’re providing you with a snap.”

Uhm… and why does the user have to transition to snaps? Why does Canonical provide those transitional packages while there are perfectly valid debs for the same thing? Certainly not because they have a vested interest in forcing it right?

you instantly refute yourself, kudos!

I haven’t kept up with Edge Shenanigans since I no longer use Windows, but the last time I used it I had no issues using Firefox instead of Edge.

Yeah sure you can add repositories to replace Canonical Sources to evade those dummied out packages, but you really really shouldn’t need to do that in the first place.

So the only difference is: MS enforcement is more stringent than Canonical, but they both force their respective ways onto the user (which may or may not versed enough to actually add/remove apt repositories).

and what point would that be? That you can’t have it your way, actually?

If that is true, then why are deb packages provided by Canonical for Ubuntu dummied out?

Canonical FORCES you to use snaps, there is no other way to look at this.
