Minecraft is insanely popular. Even if they use advanced DRM, someone will find a way to crack it.

I would love to see a minecart / rail update. They were once a critical piece of Minecraft, now often neglected as there are much better ways to get around.

We’ve all done it. …right?

Oh my, things have changed fast. I wasn’t aware there were other metadata providers. There I go spreading misinformation again.

Spotube doesn’t actually use the Spotify API. They used to use the Spotify API for their music database, but they stopped when they received a cease and desist.

I agree. As it stands, there is no immediate problem with buying a vendor unlockable phone for LineageOS or GrapheneOS. It does seem like Google is slowly closing the doors to FOSS, so the future could require an AOSP fork. But it also might not. We don’t really know for sure. As long as LineageOS and GrapheneOS exist and have developers, we have nothing to sorry about.

If, in the future, all hardware manufacturers fail us, I have used Waydroid on an old Thinkpad, and it is fantastic. And, more in the Linux ecosystem is Android Translation Layer which translates Android syscalls into Linux syscalls. It is buggy, but I could see it getting better in the future.

Anyway, I’m not really worried. There are still a lot of paths forward, and FOSS advocates are persistent.
