I haven’t watched them myself yet, but I think watching those three will sum it up, am about to watch through them myself
I think they’re actually planning on adding that soon, one of the devs mentioned it during their AMA that it’s one of the next big features they plan to try to tackle. (Edit: looks like the work is mostly done, it’s just under review https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3869)
Also kbin already has it, but I prefer Lemmy’s UI much more so I just deal without having user instance blocking for now
They also offer a version with KDE Plasma preinstalled as the desktop, but the dev/maintainer personally uses Gnome so the KDE version gets less attention from them, though that doesn’t mean it’s bad, just not customized like the official Nobara version, it’s just vanilla KDE Plasma
I’ve been keeping my eye on them, I personally am not going to use them until they get some reputation both to know if they can be trusted, and to see if they won’t randomly disappear or shut down.
They refer to themselves as “Web3-native” and are affiliated with cryptocurrency stuff for anyone that this plays a factor into deciding to try them or not. Personally it makes me hesitant about them, but to each their own.
They’ll still get sold because the reseller sometimes doesn’t bother to unlist it. Devs can deactivate keys, but some are hesitant to do it because if someone buys from the shady reseller site thinking it’s legit, if the key gets deactivated after they buy and redeem the key, the game is removed from their account with (usually) no way to get a refund. Ends up as bad reputation for the dev even though it’s not their fault.
The only ones I know of are ClamAV (ClamTK for a GUI) on PC and Hypatia for Android (F-Droid link)
Just out of curiosity, since I’ve had a similar problem, can you try to disable KScreen 2 in your Background Services settings near the startup applications/autostart menu, then try to let your monitors go to sleep?
My monitors always wake from sleep repeatedly on their own on both X11 and Wayland, but disabling it fixes it for me (but also resets my monitor settings on every boot/log in). I’m still working on finding a permanent solution for mine, but if this also acts as a workaround for your issue it might help narrow down the cause a bit.
Don’t know much about Hexbear myself, but wanted to add that it’s at least 3 years old since that’s the first post I see sorting by old under the featured section.
They used a custom fork of Lemmy that couldn’t federate with Lemmy, and was only recently was able to federate with vanilla Lemmy again, that’s why we’re only seeing posts from them within the past week or two.
I don’t know how accurate the user count is, but they do at least have the time to back up the numbers
Yeah on mobile it hasn’t been the best experience comparatively so far on its own, but the extensions have made the difference for me. They’re planning to open up mobile to a lot more (all?) of the extensions soon and I feel like it’s gonna get a lot nicer to use after that. Could technically already use them all via beta or nightly using collections or something, but I prefer to use the release version.
Best place would likely be their Github issues section, here’s the one for Lemmy backend/server, and here’s the one for Lemmy-ui for UI/frontend requests which is what you’re looking for.
I’ll try to be unbiased during this, but I am biased against Manjaro personally.
I think as a distro they have good defaults for someone who wants to just dive in and start using it, I like that they have a ton of editions where you can pretty much just start off with whatever one you like.
However, they have had quite a few issues, some innocent mistakes, some larger, but these have had some bad effects that have caused many to lose their trust for it in terms of stability and security, including me. Whether that causes you to trust or not trust them though is a different story. Some of these issues are listed here.
In terms of user friendliness, they make a lot of things very easy, especially graphics card driver and choosing kernel versions via some nice GUI tools they use, and there is a decently large community to find support and ask questions on, but best to make sure you’re asking specifically for Manjaro, as it is far enough away from Arch that some solutions or fixes won’t work and vice versa.
They also have a consistent visual design/color theme, some like it, some hate it, but it’s pretty consistent for those who it matters to.
I would consider using them again personally, but I am on a different distro I’m happy with currently, and will keep an eye on them to see how they improve over the years. I think some of their methods are flawed, but they are passionate about what they do.
I can’t really recommend for or against using it directly, but I hope this info helps you make a decision for it.
Ouch, thought that if you used the extension with a self-hosted local server that it was fully open source. Looks like I’ll be uninstalling then.
I’m okay with some proprietary extensions and stuff, but when it comes to the stuff that I type, I’d rather be able to know exactly what it’s doing with it.
I’m focusing on it because the open source license is what allows this to happen in the first place, if the developer didn’t intend to allow this to happen, they likely wouldn’t have made it open source. I think it’s a big part of the discussion. It didn’t happen with Sync or Boost because of the closed source license, which intends to not allow derivative works, while open source does.
I don’t think this is shady behavior, because the dev is responding to this responsibly. I also haven’t seen anyone thinking that it is the original developer though it may happen, but the original developer is credited in multiple places, and anywhere that you can download the app explains that it’s a fork of Lemmy for Reddit. I’m not sure what more the developer can do, but this is a pretty common thing that usually goes down just fine, and if it’s not fine the developer of Infinity for Reddit would reach out.
I personally think that credit was given where it was due.
Edit: Reworded for clarity
Sync for Reddit is not open source
Boost for Reddit is not open source
Infinity for Reddit is open source
The Reddit developer allowed to it to be used in this way by making it open source, the point of which being to be modified and forked by other developers. The Infinity for Lemmy developer is already changing the name with the intent of making it known that it’s a separate project. Infinity for Lemmy is only a temporary name.
I don’t see an issue when the creator of Infinity for Reddit specifically licensed the app in a way that this was allowed to happen, especially when credit was properly given. The first time that I saw someone mention the naming thing, the Lemmy developer made plans to change the name in the replies, as far as I can see, there was no malicious intent and they just wanted to do something nice for the community and put proper credit to the original developer.
Edit: Reworded for clarity.
I like this a lot
Piped and Newpipe have similar names, but Piped is a separate project that is a frontend and relies on someone hosting an instance, it’s more similar to Invidious than it is to Newpipe
My main question is if there are plans to allow users per-account to filter out all communities from a specific instance from /all. There are some instances I don’t really have an issue with and don’t mind chatting with people on it, but the general theme of the instance isn’t posts I want to see on my all feed (Ex: porn) and just disabling NSFW doesn’t help because there a lot of non-porn NSFW posts that I still want to see. Defederating or moving instances to one that defederates from them also isn’t a solution, because I don’t mind seeing other content from the users on the instances.
I feel like this will improve everyone’s user experience, because a user can avoid content they don’t want to always see, but not have it be an all-or-nothing kind of thing.
Edit: This question was answered here https://lemmy.ml/comment/2352489
I can kinda see it if I look at the mouse upside down, but I only see if I’m looking at it with a gas mask in mind
Symphony on F-droid handles all my music pretty well, it’s not exactly what I’m looking for in a music app, but it gets the job done while I’m looking for more. Most of my music is m4a because I did the same as you.
I’m using Debian 12 stable and I do everything on it, even gaming. I use flatpaks to keep certain apps that benefit from being up to date, and I install backported kernel and mesa when they release for more performance (amd gpu).
I’ve been on and off with vanilla Debian for years while distrohopping, but I tried out Debian 11 testing and everything just worked for me, am still using that same install but I’m sticking to stable branch now.
Also, proprietary drivers are now officially supported by Debian as of Debian 12, and are available to install out of the box without needing to search for them or add the non-free repositories now, which was a pretty big roadblock for a lot of people.
