I got it last week and I absolutely love it. There are just a two devices I've got in my life that I think are perfect. This is one of them, other being my Steam Deck. It is so sma…

I tried it on my Samsung phone. Keeps crashing, "recovery" just deletes everything and you start over from scratch. No session lasted more than 5 minutes.

I've been a Kagi user for months now and was really looking forward to testing this. However, I cannot find the download link. The page does not really contain any information on a…

Thank you! I'll use it.

YouTube Row Fixer

It is incredible how many addons I need to make YouTube usable. Here's my list (all Firefox): - uBlock Origin - ad block - SponsorBlock - to skip in video ads (some other nice feat…

True, longer would be better. And if the platform was truly open, we could just treat phone like PCs. You can still install Linux on a 20 year old machine and it will work. At leas…

I agree that the platform should be open. I played with PostmarketOS on one of my old devices and I really wish I could just install Linux on my other devices to make it really usa…

> They should switch to an SOC with mainline Linux support so you don't have to throw it out in three years. Starting 20th of June this year (so 3 days ago) every new phone release…

It's right there in the article: > An important note: We are enabling the Assistant for all users in phases, based on regions, starting with USA today. The full rollout for ‘Assist…

I would absolutely pay for the development of an independent, open source, privacy oriented and user friendly browser. I would never pay for the shitshow the Mozilla Corporation is…

Let's not forget https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube for Android TV/Fire TV.

NewPipe/PipePipe are Android alternatives with background play.

https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube is an option for Android TV/Fire TV. Even SponsorBlock is included.

I love the idea as I listen to a lot of podcasts and an occasional audiobook. The first impression is not that great. There's nothing natural about the voice. While individual word…

I had a look at COSMIC on Fedora [1]. It is fast, stable and usable, but feels little unfinished (it is an early version after all). It is not my cup of tea (maybe I am too comfort…

I would love to try it out on my Android tablet. Being able to run Linux with a real desktop browser and development environment would be really amazing.

I use KDE Plasma 5.27 (6 with many improvements is around the corner) on Wayland and fractional scaling is handled very well, nothing is blurry, no hacks required. If KDE recognize…

That's not the first story like this. It seems like more and more often the QA is done by users who have not signed up for it. Why can't a multibillion company do a proper QA?

Alphabet (Google) publishes revenue for YT, but profits only for the whole company.

"Charity" made me chuckle. YouTube by itself had an exponentially growing revenue since first introducing ads. In 2022 the revenue was at almost $30 billion (maybe this will better…

Berlin and Brandenburg in Germany: https://www.vbb.de/fahrinfo/ (need to enable it in the top right corner). Includes ICE, regional, suburban trains, subway, trams, buses and ferri…

My personal opinion here. For a long time GDP and standard of living/well-being of a society have been correlated that people started to think that these are the same. These two ar…

Small bug: The signup form didn't like when my password had special characters. Kept saying "invalid data".
