    Likely because Apple makes all iOS devices whereas Google does not make all Android devices. And it seems the issue is Google is "requiring all phone makers to pre-install Google Search and Chrome".

    I don't know what would happen if a phone maker decided not to pre-install Google Search and Chrome... Google comes over with a paddle?

    I think maybe it's a mobile issue. On desktop I don't get kicked but mobile no matter what I do it kicks me out.

    I gave this a shot yesterday evening but kept getting kicked out of games for being AFK, even though I was making moves? Anyone else having this problem?

    It's not particularly a problem that they're not fully open source, they can do whatever they want of course. I just wish one of these attempts would actually double down on being open source. Being a profitable company and providing open source software are not mutually exclusive.

    It stood out to me that they say they believe in transparency and community input, but apparently they do not believe in it enough to firmly commit to being open source.

    I'm a tech pessimist though so take the above with a grain of salt. :P

    Is this an honest attempt at a social media for Canada or is it like "W social" in the EU that is more of the same shady big tech behind the scenes stuff?

    The Gander website sure reads a lot like the W social one.

    Will Gander be open source?

    Parts of it, yes. We believe in transparency and community input. As we grow, we plan to open source core elements and support public participation in the platform's governance.

    *sigh*

    If I recall correctly I chose TotK as you mentioned in your response to pick the latter one. Though if you want I can still change it to BotW if you find that's more accurate.
