Thanks for the replies everyone. I've decided to not let my concerns overcome the most important thing of releasing the project as fully open source.

Just going to go with GPLv3 and not worry about the clones that will happen regardless of the license type, if the program becomes popular.

Thank you all for your insight and for helping me come to what I believe to be the best decision.

Thank you for the link :)

Hi. I answered this question here: https://lemmy.world/comment/4851408

Thanks for the info. I replied to your question in a similar comment here: https://lemmy.world/comment/4851408

I replied to a similar question below. Here it is:

Thanks. To be honest, I couldn't care less if people use parts of my code in commercial programs.

The only thing I'm trying to prevent is someone taking the entire project, changing some strings and icons and releasing a paid Android version based on my work. Especially as I will be releasing mobile versions myself after the desktop versions for free.

Have you tried flatseal?

I was talking about broadband at home via a 4g/5g router, not on a phone. They offer plans specifically for people who want internet at home, but who can't get DSL/fibre.

Phones usually have a lower cap, like 50>200GB. I get 50GB with my phone provider for instance.

In my European country, there are no bandwidth caps for DSL or fibre connections. But if you're not in a town (which most of us aren't) and can only get internet via a 4g (or rarely 5g) connection, you have to live with a shitty 700GB cap, which is fucking ludicrous.

I thought you were joking until I clicked the link.

I believe there is a setting to disable showing the volume on applications open in the taskbar in the settings app (naturally, in desktop mode).

Or it might be an option after right clicking the taskbar. Can't recall which one it is.

Disabling this should prevent you from being able to mute them accidentally in the future.

The only problem I foresee in doing this is adding every possible save location for games. They seem to save all over the place, so finding out the right directory to sync for each game is extremely time consuming.

I wanted to do this before, but gave up. If you want to only sync the game saves and not a ton of unrelated data, it's a chore.

Even tools like ludusavi don't have directory's added by default for anything non Steam due to this.

If anyone has a good solution to this, I'd love to hear it!
