Yeah, Podcast Addict is proprietary and ad driven, unless you pay. I grabbed a lifetime ad-free upgrade years ago when it was like two bucks.
On some level I agree with you, I generally love open source, and if AntennaPod had the feature I was looking for I would have switched, but I also don't mind paying for software if it's good and reasonably priced.
I've been using Podcast Addict for years, and when I tried to switch to AntennaPod, I couldn't figure out how to configure it in such a way that I can listen to the back catalogue of a podcast in chronological order and have the app automatically download a rolling buffer of a small number of episodes. When I looked around online for solutions, I found a forum thread of someone who had the same issue, and the maintainers of the project responded with confusion and dismissal as to why anyone would need that functionality lol. So I'm still on Podcast Addict.
BG3 had a budget of over 100 million and several hundred people working on it, it's well into AAA territory

I'm tempted to get one, but I'm also tempted to wait until a fairphone 6 is released...
If you want a de-googled fairphone they sell and support a version with /e/os preinstalled
Blaidd doesn't strike me as an edgelord, if anything he's one of the most genuine and respectful NPCs in Elden Ring
Even the PS5, which is for the most part is just an x86 PC, still has a unique architecture that allows for loading and decompressing textures from disk into VRAM without putting any load on either the CPU or GPU.
It's not like they aren't trying to do new stuff, it's just hard to find new avenues to innovate when so much has already been figured out.
They likely want to avoid legitimising those existing emulators.
Both the 2019 Modern Warfare reboot and the 2023 sequel to the reboot Modern Warfare III had a remake of Rust in their respective map pools

Zero info about whether it has a headphone jack or a MicroSD card slot, how long the software support will last, how repairable it is...
