IMEI and GSM in general is one of those "industry standard" that are so heavily paywalled that the effort to reverse engineer it is pretty hard. You can look at osmocomm, the umbrella open source project that tries to make mobile communication more accessible and open

I can already feel that my Cooler Master mouse 2.4GHz dongle doesn't need to get restarted / replugged every so often

It MUST spread. Like the article said, we should speak up and spread it anywhere we can. This is a good way to fight the legislation by playing by the rules

Sure you can only determine if "user is of age or not" with zero knowledge proof. But collect enough proof and statistics can de anonymize that anyway. How is no one addressing that?

Lol, thank you. It is my personal homage to how free the fediverse is, and that the responsibility of exposing oneself to the net rests upon themselves or the guardian.

Then why can't QT provide the same benefit of delivering cross platform developing experience? See, that is the core issue. You write FOR the platform not for yourself. In the web space, the platform writes FOR you lest they want to break compliance with the rest of the web standard. When you are writing web application, you are writing program in a standard that the platform WILL follow instead of you following whatever the platform dictates at the time of their convenience

This is an interesting perspective. I have not thought about this even as a developer.

Cloudflare workers provide a good free tier

Developing cross platform native apps sucks a lot no matter the tech stack. Compared to web technologies where the burden to follow the spec is the platform if they wanted to have interop with the web, the dev doesn't have to fight the platform.
