That was where it was uploaded first, the takedowns were for it being later hosted on azure cloud services

I believe the reason Fedora does this is to satisfy their regulatory goals, I don't know the full story behind why they have their own seemingly broken build of OBS on their repo but I would imagine it has something to do with a codec's worldwide licensing rights or similar. I believe the approach that should be taken is that Fedora should stop offering this package in a broken state as compared to continuing to do so, but that's an outsider opinion.

They put their repo first on the list. Packages will default to Fedora's repo if available. You may specify which version you want, if you both know that it's happening and know that the package you want in particular is available at both.

I really again do not know how this could possibly be the fault of another repository. Fedora is making decisions for ther distro that circumvent FlatHub, this is not FlatHub's fault.

This isn't about Flathub. The problem is that Fedora has their own flatpak repo and the packages there take priority over the properly-maintained ones in FlatHub, per OBS.

Not that what you've mentioned is wrong, but in this comment section that's a different topic than what we're discussing.

He's funny when he cares, he stopped caring about family guy a looooooooooooooooooong time ago. Eh, whatever.

I'm genuinely glad you were able to employ an amount of critical thinking that it would appear that OP had not done. It's unfortunately incredibly necessary with basically anything you can find on the internet, and equally unfortunately lacking.

"But it had shitty URL hijacking redirect ads and I had trouble finding it in search engines! IT'S BEING REPRESSED!"

Goddamn not everything has to become a hypercapitalist merch moment. Don't fall for unofficial unaffiliated "promises" to donate "a portion", just fucking donate directly and save yourself the trouble that the shirt or mug or whatever would give you after the second wash.

Meanwhile I had crackling audio after resume the last like 5 or so times I resumed my steam deck from sleep.

Sorry this meme wasn't relevant to you, I guess?

I don't understand, are you bemoaning that the company in question who owns benchy is ending things amicably?

They changed the license on benchy, which is the thing that they needed to do to end the whole fiasco. I saw plenty of discussion and the internet is really good at inflaming passions. I wouldn't classify what I saw as panic, but I think concern and confusion was rampant.

Reporting about how the maps team reclassified the US as a "sensitive country", a la: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/28/google-reclassifies-us-as-sensitive-country-like-china-russia-.html

Step two of the plan you outlined was inverted by Google, but the effect is the same: IIRC it only shows up that way for US users.

Edit: apparently that was either a lie or incomplete info, see comments elsewhere in this thread.
