So far nothing conclusive at the software and hardware level, we think it may have been a temporary network connectivity issue at the datacenter level, as it didn’t just affect one service.

With paid softwares and services, it’s always the lifetime of the product’s profitability.

At least the OS can be swapped. If the battery life is abysmal compared to the Neo for similar specs then there’s no redemption possible.

The only way I’d favor this over a Neo is similar battery life and user-replaceable RAM (ideally LPCAMM2).

Yeah Lifetime Passes are unsustainable for a service. The only reason they exist is to attract some early adopters, keep them and if lucky enough have them bring more customers.

The only viable path forward is to discontinue the purchase of new lifetime licenses, or make them exponentially expensive.

A new client specifically for Vaultwarden will show up if Bitwarden becomes hostiles against it and purposely sabotage the API.

The more time goes by, the more I’m interested about software and hardware that tries to do more with less at the consumer and enthusiast level.

Ex: ESP-based projects and products, Meshtastic/MeshCore, eInk-based displays for lower energy consumption, etc

Do a traceroute in both scenarios, that should give you a clue where the traffic goes and where it stops.

Even though it’s renewable energy, it still generates a significant amount of heat.

Can we try cutting down on computing resources wherever possible first?

Seems like a huge risk. You either lose a part of your userbase by leaving the country, or you risk losing your reputation internationally if it’s discovered that you are complicit in spying, and reputation is everything in the world of encrypted messaging.

Same for Alberta, yet both are still part of Canada.

Seems a lot for a country that doesn’t want to go to war.

That’s the default time when the CMOS battery is dead and the RTC is reset.

Age-verification and age-estimation methods

they’ll bullshit their way through that one, no way you can make that “highly effective”. It’s all political posturing with the “protect our children” pretext, with the goal of eroding privacy without accomplishing the initial goal whatsoever.
