It does, you can turn it on in the YouTube plugin settings.

Transparency is awesome, the more something feels like floating glass the better 🥳

Nice. It's not often you see a cityscape that isn't nighttime, I like the white hazy presence.

This is a very meta answer to give 😄
Short answer I think you may be out of luck. Firebase/MicroG, websocket (must be included as a part of the app itself by the developer) or some NTFY workaround are really the only options that I'm aware of at this point.

Not the OP, but there was a time about a year ago (can't remember if it was pre- or post- Daniel leaving the team lead role) where graphene was very vocal about how they felt that the Google play store security model was superior to that of F-Droid and Aurora. They poured massive amounts of development in to making it possible to use the play store directly in the OS through the sandboxed plag services. They expressed very clearly that they felt the only safe places to get apps was either directly from the developer or through the play store.
Graphene hasn't been as vocal about this kind of stuff since Daniel stepped out of the limelight, and I did a quick search for the old twitter posts that covered the topic but couldn't connect to them on twitter. That could just be because I don't have a Twitter account and Elon is jacking up Twitter access these days.

I've been using GrapheneOS for about a year and I've never seen F-Droid bundled in their installer or app store. They've been vocally against F-Droid for quite some time. Other more FOSS focused projects bundle F-Droid.

If it's only been a day, I might wait a bit longer before writing it off. The issue could very well be resolved soon. Even the big tech companies have a service go through problems for a day or two.
I only tested Notesnook for a few days, so I may not remember it's key elements well, but Standard Notes seemed like a very similar product (the downside is the subscription, it was basically unusable to me without paying).
The NotesNook UI is the best I've seen, it's hard to find that level of polish in a FOSS android app.
I think you'll struggle to find what you're looking for without a subscription model unfortunately. If you do want to retry Joplin that is my recommendation, I run it with a locally hosted Joplin sync server, it's fantastic for my use case. It's been recieving a lot of solid updates lately too.

Awesome! Yeah the initial time buy is high, but it's super nice to have it organized and archived from that point on.

Haha that is just the way it would be, only some of the seasons on sale 😅.
I don't know how technologically adventurous you are, but I'd recommend using Jellyfin as a library for all for any digital content you might have. It does require setting up a media server, but it's pretty great for managing special features and extras in with the episodes themselves.

Yeah they definitely increase re-watch value. I enjoyed the director/writer commentaries too, gives you appreciation for more subtle aspects of the episodes. It's sad to have generally lost all those extras in the current streaming landscape 🥲.

Not the original commenter, but just a +1 for Calyx from me.
It is very easy to install and it clears away a lot of low level Google tracking within the OS itself. It also comes with some nice additions like a firewall system for blocking internet access for that one google app (like keyboard or camera) you still need for whatever reason. Can't recommend it enough.

Makes me consider changing launchers just for the icons 😅

That's a great flat icon style, I love it.

No it does not increase subscriber count unfortunately. It basically treats that channel like an RSS feed for you. Views are also not counted due to the way newpipe accesses the video content.

My thoughts exactly

I've basically agreed with you this whole time, see my initial comment regarding the difference between the previous comtribution model and the new request for purchase:
Yeah, functionally it's the same.
However we're drawing different conclusions about the situation. You say it's misleading and morally wrong to refer to "buying" this software, I say it isn't and that it's actually a helpful perceptual change in fostering support from their users.
I don't really think there's anything else to say beyond that. If you don't like how Immich is handling their software, don't use it.

Evidently there's some difference to the approach. I'm not familiar with the WinRAR days, but they specifically address that in this video. I don't know if it being similar to WinRAR is a good thing or bad thing in your book, but maybe you'll enjoy the video.

Hello everyone! I can't count how many good open source/FOSS apps I learned about through the FOSSdroid subreddit over the years (super happy that we're on Lemmy now btw). There are quite a few that have brought huge QOL improvements to my degoogled android experience, so I want to show them a little love every so often. Here is an app that I use every day while at work or while traveling, sometimes hours each day... # Podverse Fdroid: https://www.f-droid.org/packages/com.podverse.fdroid/ Github: https://github.com/podverse/podverse-fdroid ## Highlights 1. Can be set to auto-download specified podcasts while you're on WiFi so that you have them locally saved for when you are on cell data. This is great if you're like me and don't have a huge data allotment while also often forgetting to save episodes while I'm on WiFi. 2. Has a value for value option that allows you to donate bitcoin to streams and podcasts that you like. I don't actually use this because I'm not in the bitcoin world, but it gets me thinking about other ways I could support my favorite creators. For someone who does use bitcoin I would imagine the V4V option could be very convenient. 3. Manual settings and accounts import/export. This should be a feature of every app, but sadly it isn't. In my experience, it's a leap of faith to trust seedvault to transfer app data when changing phones or flashing a new ROM. It's awesome when an app includes a manual backup option, and podverse does. It's a simple app, but it saves me from a proprietary podcast app like Spotify and I don't have to hope that the podcasts happen to be uploaded to youtube. What is your favorite podcast app? I haven't tried a huge variety of them, just Antennapod then Podverse.
**DETAILS** Launcher: NeoLauncher (fdroid) Wallpaper: Doodle live wallpaper app (fdroid) Icons: Arcticons Icon Pack (fdroid) If you're like me and prefer a simple home screen but still use quite a few apps regularly, Neolauncher has a nice feature called cover mode where you can choose a single icon to represent a folder of icons. I don't like the chaotic feel of the standard folder with several miniaturized apps smooshed together.
