Is there any open source/diy dumb phones? Pine64 should make one If there ist any on market :D
Man, Wikipedia is fucking cool.
Thank you for linking! (And if anyone else finds this list super useful, maybe think about donating; Wikipedia is massive and run exclusively off donations :)
Wikipedia is financially pretty stable, afaik. Not saying you shouldn’t donate, but you might want to look into what happens with it. It won’t necessarily be used to cover costs of running the website.
I didn’t actually know that. I’m happy to donate anyway when I’m able to, but thank you for making me a little more informed!
I found this article on the subject that did a really good job of exploring the nuances of Wikipedia’s funding, community critisims, and whether it’s much different from other non-profits. Highly reccomend for anyone else interested in the subject
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2015/12/02/wikipedia-has-a-ton-of-money-so-why-is-it-begging-you-to-donate-yours/What I learned is that Wikipedia is not financially in dire straights, as sometimes might be inferred from their donation requests, that their funding approach is very similar to other comparable non-profits, but that because of their nature people have very different expectations of them, which one might reasonably see as either reasonable or unreasonable depending on perspective.
The problem is many government and need-to-live-comfortably services tend to require a non-dumb phone, and the number of services is only increasing
a tablet at home for “need-to-live-comfortably services” and a dumbPhone in your pocket
a solution some people already chose
Fantastic until entering your workplace needs a nfc phone tap and app
Does FairPhone count as one ?
Pine64 should make one If there ist any on market :D
They failed with the smart ones, so that might be an improvement.
