I don’t want to have children, but if I knew I was going to get Alzheimer’s at 65 I would plan to leave this world at 64.
Indeed, it is in reference to its long wings, not a penis. There are several other insects and birds whose scientific names include this term.

Maybe if we didn’t spend all our money on… whatever this is, money wouldn’t be so tight.

I imagine a world beyond proprietary software, and GNU/Linux is the most promising implementation of that.
I don’t agree with reducing software-freedom to an issue of mere privacy-friendliness. I’m willing to be realistic about the security shortcomings of Libre software but not if the alternative is locked down silos and walled gardens.
People are going to complain no matter how they try to make money, but this should at least have been opt-in with clear consent. The alternative of course is being beholden to Google search referrals. They can’t photosynthesize funds.
Vivaldi, Brave, and their stans are getting their pitchforks ready, forgetting that they don’t have to do the hard work of developing an engine because Google already does that for them.
Being a free software GNU distribution is also the point of Guix, and it’s part of what attracted me to it (although its practical abilities are nice as well).
You’re being heavily downvoted because this instance is “a community of free software and privacy enthusiasts” as the title on the front page suggests, and this in particular is the !opensource@lemmy.ml community. Discord is the complete antithesis of this, as it is a proprietary application locked to a centralized server that also spies on its users.

That being said, there are modern alternatives to IRC, such as Matrix, XMPP, Zulip, Mattermost, or RocketChat. However, I think IRC is fairly good at what it does.
this, it’s a cryptomoney scheme. They need to promote Brave in order to increase the value of the cryptomoney token. There’s also an affiliate referral link program I’ve seen spammed a couple of times
Except this isn’t a privacy community, this is a FOSS community, and OP mentioned they wanted an app on F-Droid, not anything about privacy.
I believe the idea that “FOSS is only about privacy and nothing else, therefore proprietary apps with no network access are the same as FOSS apps” is absurd and harmful to the free software community, so I downvoted you based on that. Privacy is important but free software is much more than just privacy.
Why advertise proprietary apps in a FOSS community? Especially when there are FOSS options available
What’s that looking like? I’m aware of Anbox but IIRC that runs a full Android runtime and I’ve seen mixed reports of it working.
Personally I’ve been kicking around the idea of an API compatibility layer for Android, so an Android app could be built as a standard Java jar and run on top of OpenJDK. I’m not concerned with binary APK compatibility, but there are many apps on F-Droid that I would like to run on non-Android Linux, perhaps without the baggage of something like Anbox. I don’t know what it would entail, if there is any interest, or if it’s even possible though.
