Nice to see that @oli is seeing the bigger picture of Cascade, and the opportunities a modular #DNSSEC pipeline offers.

This is why we love developing this together with the #DNS operator community. Keep the feedback coming!

@nixCraft This is a good idea BUT

Alternatives exist like #lineageos #grapheneos and a bunch of others that will allow you to actually own your device and it's data, that will allow you to sideload apps until your heart is content, that will empower you to screw Google.

If you continue to not be able to sideload because of #Google, use that as motivation to explore these #opensource alternatives. #SetYourselfFree

"Where's @kde Plasma 6.5?"

It will be rolling out soon! The Plasma 6.5 release overlapped with the Fedora 43 freeze, so we were not able to include it at this time. However, it is coming soon and it will be nice!
