  • I’m not concerned about the app id changing after a signature leak, in fact, it’s what I’d expect. I am concerned about if the new signature is from the actual dev or not, and the dev hasn’t really said much other than they’ll release a disclosure once their new build is pushed to fdroid. It’s been pushed as far as I can tell, and it’s still been silence from them. I’d recommend not installing either app until this gets sorted out, and revoking the app’s access to your account.


  • I have used Bazzite for some time for both gaming and development tasks. Distrobox is what I use to do development, and rpm-ostree if I don’t care about layering on to the system image. Really, immutable distros just function differently than non-immutable, so if you try to use them like you might be used to, then you might have a difficult time.

    Bazzite’s real strength is with completely new users in regard to Linux who haven’t already built up non-immutable habits imo (although I’ve used Linux for over a decade and was able to adapt to immutable and actually prefer it). It pre-packages everything someone moving from gaming on Windows might need while making it more difficult to break. That’s why Wendell recommended GN use it over Cachyos, since it’s more approachable and accessible to those moving from Windows.







  • The new repo has two releases in it now. These releases are not signed with the original key as far as I can tell. Further, GitHub is silently redirecting to the new repo, even in Obtainium, meaning it’s possible that if you had this previously installed via Obtainium and updated now, you may have unsigned apks installed that may or may not contain the changes in the repo.

    This is a mess. I deleted the repo from Obtainium (luckily I don’t auto install updates) and will wait to see what happens over the next few months. Might just save my notes in a network share instead of using syncthing from my phone. Idk, notes are all that I was using it for.
