    Foot is the fastest and I use it as default. Second is Kitty because it uses GPU acceleration.

  • New Advertisement and Internet connection permissions for Simple SMS Messenger on Google Play Store...
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    I agree that F-Droid is great!

    What I usually do is to buy the pro version on Google Play and install it later on F-Droid.

    On the other hand I don't see anything wrong for non tech people to install FOSS apps from the Play Store. The apps are still FOSS

  • Where, and when, did you start using Linux? Where are you now?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 100%

    Startet using Linux in 1999. Then I did a lot of distro hopping:

    • Redhat
    • Suse Linux
    • Gentoo
    • Sabayon Linux
    • Debian
    • Kdenlive
    • Arch
    • Ubuntu Studio
    • Fedora
    • Fedora Silverblue
    • since 2017 NixOS

    NixOS feels very contemporary and will stay a while. It is very advanced and usable in many diverse environments. In the past I did learn a lot installing and maintaining Debian and Arch – which has a great community.

    Ich wünschte, die grüne Jugend hätte was zu sagen.

    Im Ernst: Die Schlagzeile ist mir zu reißerisch und unterstützt das Bilden von Vorurteilen.

    Was miss reading "we are a Spirituality community now" and thought that this is very unexpected.

    But to have c/spirituality as a community here is very welcome.

    Say "goodbye" to cookies and cookie banners with vanilla Firefox

    According to Mozilla setting both to the value 1 is the better idea. The fallback then won't be "Accept all".

  • Platform for suggesting FOSS ideas to developers?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 87%

    Honestly the best way would be to start coding by yourself. While trying to find solutions you might find the right people too.

    Almost every dev has its own ideas and ideals. There is no lack of ideas but everytime a big lack of time and men power. Software developers have more too much on the plate then too less.

    So sharing ideas is nice but contributing is gold.

    I would call it the FOSS Dev Paradox.

  • Non-commercial Open Source License?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 75%

    Historically the GPL seems to be not cermercial in the sense of taking care for developers rights. The GPL is also connected to the term Open Source. Because it was too restricted for some cases a derivation was made witj the LGPL with which it is posdible to use GPL licenced libraries easier in combination with other more restricted or more opened licenses.

    For some looking for Free Software all this was too restricted and the libre BSD license and all its derivations were made.

    There are several licenses which forbid commercial use. But where does this work? When I want to use a piece of software while working on a profitable project it is commercial use. It may be on purpose to restrict this but sometimes it is not meant to be not free.

  • Which FOSS smartwarch would you recommend?
  • tom42 tom42 Now 75%

    I have a Bangle.js 2 and there are two things I don't like. One is the display which has too low contrast and the second is that the hardware itself feels not very valuable because it is very light and plastic.

    Occasionally I get feedback that some listen to DJ sets I put together to work. So I took a look at what I actually listen to for deep work and recorded a mix specifically for that.

  • When working, I see that some people create a space for themselves by wearing headphones and listening to music so they don't get distracted. Do you guys feel the same way and if so, what tracks or mixes are you recommending?

  • Is [here](/c/music@beehaw.org) a good place for sharing DJ mixes or sets? Are there any rules against self promotion? On my search I did not find any community for this purpose yet. Is there any community anyone can recommend for this?

    I guess this is the actually best way to use Lemmy on a phone. Either Chromium or Firefox based browsers work.
