A little rant about the Android operating system in c/android@lemmy.world

Google has actually taken great strides to make custom ROMs as easy as humanly possible

I guess that is besides:

  • slowly, but surely, stopping development of many AOSP core apps in favour of their own proprietary apps.
  • ensuring many of their apps are basically unusable with a custom ROM
  • making it so easy for app devs to block custom ROMs

Dunno, but that's all Google stuff.

If Apple really care Asahi wouldn't be reversed engineered, and instead would be implementing from docs.

No. Apple cares as much about FOSS as they care about privacy. They only care when it suits them.

I’ve just released Gatekeeper 1.6.0. It’s a single executable that turns any Linux machine into a home gateway. Now with realtime traffic graphs, LAN autoconfiguration, full cone NAT and better looks. in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I don't think I fully understand how this is supposed to work. Am I correct in that this service acts as the gateway on the network? So clients would be configured to see this as the gateway, and this then subsequently pushes things through the real gateway (router)? Thus essentially everything (most things?) that the router does would be done by this instead?
