Mine have tiny screws on the bottom that hold them in place on to of the right fit. Might check to see if yours do too.

I've never used a VPN with it.

Lack of true open cooperation? Oh wait, you said benefit.... Ease of use? Maybe? And slightly less buggy?

Yes, but also... It's true. Browsers are the number one way folks get viruses.

But s-expressions give you power that other syntax doesn't. Data and code as one. Besides there is no other syntax than simply that so it becomes much easier to remember random extra things.

Whitespace on the other hand, I hate with fiber of my being.

Emacs can do that obviously. And everything else.

Yea, the whole thing has always given me a lot of pause when I comes to GOS. I'm sure it's still an awesome solution, but makes me think twice. In the end I have literally zero need or desire for anything Google running on my phone so I'm on calyx.

Been remodeling a house that we just bought and this has been a my experience as well. I just enjoy making things. Software, home automations, wood, anything. The joy of building. I think that's what it is.

Also, it feels so awesome to build the backbend in rust and the ui in QML.

I have been building a Qt/KDE app in rust using that CXX-QT binding. It's pretty good, but definitely more of a headache to work through the binding than just directly with C++. That being said, I don't feel like I'm about to shoot myself in the foot with rust. Rust just protects and advises the best paths forward. Once KDAB solidifies the binding and perhaps makes it easy for others to create their own extra bindings, (which they don't want to maintain every class in QT so this is necessary) it'll be amazing.

While that's true, all the things they built are individual and open source, it wouldn't take too much work for sometime who knows how to package things up for a phone app. That said, you'd need another device to do all the processing.
