Bitcoin is a bad example, since it’s not designed as a private currency. Monero/XMR is actually usable.

Which packages do you mean?

What makes you say that specifically?

Organic Maps, nice

Just speculation, but Deepin?

Your alt text doesn’t describe what is mentioned in the image though?

What’s the difference between Stop Killing Games and Stop Killing Games?

In case of the modem I know it doesn’t need to be signed. In fact, there exists an open source firmware for it.

I see, but which components do you mean specifically?

What firmware do you mean?

Exciting to see! Positively surprised Alpine is modular enough to make this feasible/maintainable.
Curious to see what the part about SystemD and musl at the end meant.

Obviously? Who would just give you stuff when you’re not even employed 😂😂

Thanks, clarified my comment!

As written in my other comment, “cash but digital” is a valid use case imo. It’s just most cryptocurrencies are terrible for that.
XMR/Monero is the best one I’ve seen, but GNU Taler has the potential to do that without the ecological harm. I hope it comes soon™

Agree in general, but I just learned that the word “idiot” is considered ableist language. I was unaware of it’s historic meaning/roots, so this surprised me too.
Some people are desperate for economic or social reasons. That maybe doesn’t give them the same status as other scam victims, but I’ve seen smart and educated people fall for this gambling.
