Mobile-Friendly-Firefox Updates:
Introducing a new desktop button! Say hi to FriendlyFox! It features a menu to conveniently activate scripts without the need to type terminal commands. Just tap&hold/secondary-click the FriendlyFox icon and tap/click the script you want to run. There is also an option to Launch Firefox, and the Customize option allows you to choose the tap/click behavior of the button itself. The default is Install and can be changed to Update or Launch Firefox. Oh, and did I mention that I made the FriendlyFox logo myself using LibreOffice Draw? It's a cute little Red Panda, otherwise known as a Fire Fox. I also used GIMP to modify my avatar. Yay free software! I hope everyone enjoys the new update!

Reddit has signed a deal that allows user data to be sold for training AI!
I was looking at new Open Collectives earlier and noticed one for Nheko. Is this legit ? I wanted to ask before I start donating.

📣 Hey there, Droidian community! 📱🐧 We want to take a moment to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the incredible guests who visited our booth at FOSDEM this year! 🙌🎉
Your enthusiasm and support for running Linux on Android Phones truly blew us away! It was an absolute pleasure meeting each and every one of you, discussing our project, and exchanging ideas about the future of Linux on mobile devices. 🤝🌟
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.
