People voting with their dollars is what needs to happen so many cases. They often have options available that would work but they really just want to buy an Apple or something like it and hope and pray that the company stops being scummy which will never happen.

EDIT: this should no longer be necessary, please ensure your pmbootstrap is up to date (latest git master) and if you did run the below command reset it with pmbootstrap config -r mirrors.systemd (after updating)
if you're trying to use pmbootstrap and run into an issue because the systemd staging repo can't be found, doing the following will prevent it from attempting to fetch the (now missing) repo
$ pmbootstrap config mirrors.systemd none

Two notable improvements:
- You now can pick the @beacondb URL automatically when choosing a submission URL
- There is an option (opt-in) that shows you the locations of queued submissions overlayed on the map. When you click on it, it will tell you how many cell towers and WiFi APs were found there, as well as the time the submission was made.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
