Let me guess, proprietary drivers cause this and the open source or generic drivers lack “functionality”.

If it turns on, reaches its peek resolution and refresh rate that is good enough for me, I genuinely can care less for HDR or the nitty gritty features.

I would argue and say that it is poor implementation on your developers behalf, Lemmy itself supports it, your client is failing to properly render the image.

As mentioned previously, Voyager displays the image as intended.

If you don't trust the platform then you shouldn't be using it. No bandaid like antivirus or firewall can help with that.

I mean, if you don’t have a firewall on the device itself then your router certainly does, your device requests xyz port open your router will oblige with UPNP unless explicitly denied.

The on-device firewall is just an extra step before it hits your router’s firewall anyways, I’m sure your devices have made contact with servers behind your back that you know nothing about.

The firewall is annoying? I would argue and say the firewall is protecting your computer from connecting to a rouge server, annoying or not it’s better than some douche abusing an exploit in your system.

perhaps if you open the Wiki link where the image was taken from, for me it’s animated on Voyager.

OpenSnitch is a nice for the desktop environment, deny by default and prompts the user when an application requests a open port, at first the prompts can get a little overwhelming given how many things want to connect to xyz server but eventually lightens up.

Pity and Shame typically go hand an hand, you’ll hear people say “That’s a shame” but you can replace shame with pity “That’s a pity” and achieve the same result.

However when addressing another person, you won’t hear people say “I shame you” instead you’ll hear “I pity you” to show displeasure or anger to another person.

Hope this helps!

Funk and funky are still in my vocabulary.

I believe it still relies on Reddit’s APi however, the token used is regularly refreshed to circumvent their rate limiting.

OAuth token spoofing: To circumvent rate limits imposed by Reddit, OAuth token spoofing is used to mimick the most common iOS and Android clients. While spoofing both iOS and Android clients was explored, only the Android client was chosen due to content restrictions when using an anonymous iOS client.

Token refreshing: The authentication token is refreshed every 24 hours, emulating the behavior of the official Android app.

HTTP header mimicking: Efforts are made to send along as many of the official app's headers as possible to reduce the likelihood of Reddit's crackdown on Redlib's requests.
