I cannot find any resources other than: OsmAnd is GPLv2, the API is MIT. I cannot find anything about the plugins, but that would only mean that the plugins are a mix of open and closed source, though the app itself is still open source.
standing to their documentation they have an exception to the GPLv2 for the Google Play app to be able (my guess here) to better process payments and such.
So to my admittedly poor understanding:
OsmAnd -> open source
OsmAnd on Google Play -> closed source but compiled from the FOSS code
Plugins -> YMMV depending on the plugin
Yet because OsmAnd and it's API itself are FOSS I would argue that this is still the right community for the OP question. :)
the paid version is still Free and Open source. In this case free stands for Free as in Free speech and not as in Free beer.
Also none of the Free or Open source licences prevent you to sell the compiled software. Hell, most of the Open source licences don't even prevent you to close the source code (Mozilla, MIT, etc.) it's only the GPL and a few others that mandate that the source code must be made available on request...
Tracking stuff came as soon as you could communicate asynchronously with a server, really. It became widely known and a plague in the 10s but it started as soon as Ajax was available. Keep in mind that Google and most of the websites were free and ads driven almost from the start because that was the only way to create a critical mass of users.
True but since then Israel has done nigh to nothing to stop the creation of kibbutz in Palestine, and the occupation of land both in Gaza and in the West Bank, and Hamas has grown to pretty much erase any other political faction in Palestine. The PLO shrunk out of any international relevance since the death of Arafat and Israel is actually governed by the far-right. Alas! Everything went very wrong since the 90s.
Now, I am in no way expert in the subtleties of the political situation in Israel and Palestine, but it seems that the peace process in that region will always be doomed to fail.
Since Israel was founded there never had been a chance of a happy outcome. The claim on the land was tenuous at best then and neither Israel nor Palestine ever wanted to peacefully mingle. The fact that Israel is governed by far right religious nuts and Palestine by terrorists also adds to the problem, but hey! whatever works to assuage the "western world" guilt for the Shoah, right?
some functionality of Tridactyl are disallowed becsuse of the plugin system Web Extension that Firefox uses. https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl#webextension-related-issues Qutebrowser on the other hand is built from the base up to be used like that.
If you have a specific problem you might find some answers in the issues on their GitHub (Tridactyl's) or open a new issue...
Some time ago someone was suggesting bookwyrm as a federated alternative to Goodreads...
I had a kindle and now I have a Kobo, I still read oj my phone if I get stuck somewhere and I don't have my e-reader with me, but e-readers are so much better. Less eye strain, less distractions from notifications or random thoughts. IMO if you read more than a book a year you probably should have an e-reader. Just my 2 cents.
I buy books, most of the times I read them. ebooks have been my salvation space wise, project Gutenberg saved me money wise, at least for the classics.
Why limit yourself to seized data from the US only if hosted in the US if you can buy data from all over the world. In some respects that is a very smart move, in some other is deplorable and arrogant.
The Hyperion saga is very enjoyable. If you didn't read them already The Martian and Project Hail Mary by andy Weir are outstanding.
You are missing PPAs from the list even though it needs some attention on which PPA is being used. I used to use the when I was on Mint.
The moment I realised that is the moment I quit both cigarettes and Meta products...
To be honest, the minimum you really need for a colourful website is just HTML and a dash of inline CSS, especially if you want to recreate that nostalgic early internet type of feeling. JavaScript is very much optional.
In my opinion you should start easy, understand how it all clicks together, especially HTML and then start building, and eventually rebuilding, on top of it after you have grasped the basics. Most people gets scared by HTML, CSS and JavaScript because they are usually presented together as if you couldn't use one without the others, but you most certainly can.
Just my 2 cents.
