I was wondering if anyone has discovered a Google Slides alternative web app where I could have, I can create presentations where in a privacy focused manner, something like proton docs. I just don't feel like using Google Slides even Though it's pretty well known and I might use it. I just don't trust Google if you know what I mean

Quick question? Since Firefox is open source couldn't you in theory modify where the password manager is going. Syncing your passwords from the browser to your local server. Idk, I just thought of that and know that that'll never work or it may be too much work when there's an alternative for that anyways. Just something I thought of from what you were saying about "if Mozilla may kill their servers" which they will imo.

I myself like Gnome's Epiphany browser. Yeah it's not perfect, but at least it works and granted the performance is getting somewhere. Also, I think its based on Apple's Webkit, but I couldn't be more far off.

It's really weird, and I don't get it either. The modpack doesn't have any affiliation or in my experience doesn't have lucky blocks within it. I know its weird, but It's sort of like a standard RL Craft clone IG.
I remember playing this modpack a while back in 2019/2020 where its filled with really fun and weird mods. Spite it being called "Lucky Block", there wasn't any lucky blocks in it, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless. The mod in question is the Crafting Table Icon you see on the right side of the screenshot. I'm not sure where to look, and I did attempt searching [curseforge.com](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/search?page=1&pageSize=20&sortBy=relevancy&class=modpacks&search=ForgeUser19520519), nothing, even searching the user ***ForgeUser19520519*** I couldn't find anything. I would love to start playing this again for a lets play series I'm making soon. > Thanks!
I was wondering if there was an Open Source OnlyFans Alternative dedicated to Linux and Computer Engineering Related Content. Same Idea but with Unix Porn. If this would exist, what would you do in its development, How would you improve it and make it profitable?

Just a change and because I don't want to pay a license ( if thats how it works...) for music.
I am currently working on a video game project, It's 3D, and in a particular feature where players can listen to the radio. I want to pull data from Odysee (LBRY) and a specific channel that I want to play in-game. If I can't pull data from the network, Is there another way for me to access either music or video content without breaking a ToS. I'm working with python if that helps.I am also new, or semi new to Python.

I was basically wondering if there was a way for me to make youtube rss feeds of channels I watch. I thought youtube blocked this a while back, 2022 or 23.
Also, newpipe is sort of broken for me, but the only thing that works for me is ViMusic, which I have to look at its code to see what is actually happening 😀.

Yeah, since not all videos are shown, someone in this thread shared a repo that allows us to host our own YouTube library, and there’s a jellyfin plugin for it. So I guess the channel not displaying all videos is fine, as for my use cases, I just care for updates and such.
Synther 2 months ago • 100%
What a great project! Love the idea. I’m going to check it out later as I’m a bit busy.
I was wondering if there was any way I could grab all of the content creator's channel (that I watch) rss feed from YouTube and make it into one html file to host it on my github pages. I can then go to my rss reader, I use YouTube music and AntennaPod. YouTube music for my iPhone and AntennaPod on android as a backup. Just wondering if this was possible, but also, I remember seeing a reddit post (or stack overflow) not long ago, like a year ago. A user asked about this and youtube shut that down due to, and I'm taking a guess, its because of this may block ads preventing them from making profit.

Do you know any resources on how I could tick off the bootloader?
I'll try the xda developers if that's a good place to start...
The update in 2023 that I heard patched the way I could even install lineage on the S9...
Let’s imagine a hypothetical scenario where an alien spaceship crash-lands at a specific spot where North Dakota and Saskatchewan meet. In this case, would the aliens face any legal consequences, such as fines or imprisonment, for illegally crossing the border? Given that this location is quite remote and sparsely populated, how do you think authorities from both the United States and Canada would handle such an unprecedented situation in terms of jurisdiction and border control? Just wondering because I do believe that there are other lives out there in this vast universe. Sorry, but the last post I made regarding Streetview, I checked out `panoramax.fr`, and found it really interesting and fun to use as a FOSS Google Maps Alternative.
I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade my phone to Android 11 (god for bid Android 13/14) on my Samsung S9. I remember back when I did this, back in 2020 I somehow installed Android 11, it must of been an update Samsung rolled out and I didn't noticed until in December of 2021, I accidentally factory reset, yes, ask me how I managed to do that. Just wondering if this is possible, as I know its not, and I know that the S9 is EOL.

It appears to be, thanks!😊 I personally really like that feature that Android has.
I am trying to find this application that's in fdroid (repo on github) but I am unable to find it again. It's an application designed to help bring the music finder feature from android 12+ to older versions. Android compute core. > shazam foss alternative built into AOSP Just something I like that Android has, no Google from what I've read back when I got my pixel. The music that my phone detects doesn't get sent to google. Anyways, I can't find app, and the icon is literally the same as the official one from what AOSP has.
I was wondering why there isn't or if there is, an Open Source (Free, or not) Street View like Google Maps. I like geography as a hobby, like my other hobbies, and found [GeoHub](https://geohub.gg) which sparked my interest in being a free geoguessr alternative. I just don't understand why Google is the only Mapping service people go to, is Google the only one that has street view? is this a hard business model to achieve? Please, I'd love too know :)

I watched this video where they talked about how someone installed Linux on their Google drive. Like, installing everything in Google drive, not finding some Google client. Storing the /* in Drive. I am currently attempting to do this as well, but with Microsoft OneDrive. I'll update you all on my progress!

I tend to forget movies and such lol. I thought it was something short, just couldn’t get the name.
I forgot the name of this particular marvel series that I wanna watch again. The plot is as followed: In the beginning, a female X-Men saves her boyfriend who is also an X-Men, she gets kidnapped by the CIA. Later the team, (her boyfriend included) and another family that kids also have X-Men abilities help save her. These, I would say a small group of X-Men are isolated in a single house surrounded by forest to “protect” them. > This is obviously live action.

Yeah, in fact. The Linux kernel does use proprietary software (Blobs) for it to run. Or stuff to function like Bluetooth and shit like that.
Idk, just a Twitter post I found.
> When I refer to Linux, I am referring to a computer with the kernel **and** other software that makes up a Personal Computer. I like to think that Linux is great, and always will be, a Personal Computer. Windows, I will always remember it being the best thing for business’s as Microsoft pushes licenses and such business related features. I switched to Linux in 2020, Ubuntu, and slowly learned my ways around, and understanding how everything works, but most people don’t have to now, it’s so simple to get started.
I found a Similar logo design to thunder, and was wondering where this is originally from? I was browsing TikTok, yes, judge me. Haven’t been on in years, and still hate it.

Yeah! I did ‘rest’ for rest api support. That works too
I was thinking of making a Free Open Source Resturant, with free food and drinks made purely out of free software components. I was thinking of licensing this under the GPLv3 for a freedom living experience, and not only that. I was also thinking it all in Rust!!
I was wondering if there was a Web Application where I can work on Android App Development. Think of it like if vscode was only built for Android Development, and how cool it would be to develop android apps directly into your browser, just like vscode.dev. Now, I was thinking of using `vscode.dev` and installing Gradle and Kotlin packages from the marketplace, but I was wondering if there was another alternative instead of using a Microsoft Product. Likewise, I'm on an Xbox One where I can only use the Browser, can't install anything.

Alright, thanks. I thought of this like idea. I also have little to no, or some knowledge of how Minecraft world generation works lol. So I was just speaking theoretically
So idk if any of you know of the Minecraft program’s, amidsts or MCA Selector. Two programs I absolutely enjoy using for my worlds, plus, their Free Open Source Software. Anyways, there my story… So I’ve been a Minecrafter since 2014, since the Xbox 360 days. I then switched to the Java edition of Minecraft in 2019 when I obtained my first pc on my 11th birthday. I made a server that I made for me and my friends / sister when they occasionally jump on and wanna play. In that server, we had an amazing time, building and creating memories. The seed is what’s most important here. ****> Main Point**** Is it possible for me to create program, preferably a GUI, that lets the user draw out the seed of what they remember. So similar to how you would draw things in krita, but more for a Minecraft top down world view. Amidst or MCA Selector POV. I’m not sure if it’s possible or if Minecraft will even allow such activity. Which I’m not sure why it wouldn’t. _Using the MC Seed API if they have such thing??_ It’s just when your in a seed for more then 2 years, you get attached and just love the terrain it has. Idk man, I just spent forever in that world seed, built amazing stuff. Regardless if I used commands, cheats etc, I just wanna find the seed again using this technique that I hope it’s possible.

Alright, yeah, I'm using KDE. I don't recall downloading anything, like clam AV, ever.
I knew that .db stood for Database.
Likewise, I guess this could be, like you said, some sort of program I previously installed that checked for a list of URLs that are malware. Again, I have never installed any program like these, and if I did, I would probably delete it after a minute of checking it out lol.
So I normally clear up storage every once in a while, let's say about every four months. I noticed this a while ago, and didn't think much of it. But I was wondering if anyone knew of what this meant, or if this is actually "Malware". I know whenever I delete a program, using ``dnf remove program-name``, and remove the following folder in local/apps or.config, and this will delete it to save some space. As I'm not using said program for now. I have never seen this before, and was wondering if anyone would care to help me describe this for me. My best guess is part of Wireshark, as I remember installing it once, but who knows, maybe It's something I shouldn't have. I know what I'm sort of doing on Linux, and if this is network related, I probably don't care.

am I able to download all the transcripts of each video from one channel? I was planning on doing this with a few channels. If this is even possible with YT-DL.
Is it possible for me to grab (download) a full list of transcripts from a youtube channel's videos. I am working on a small project, of which I need a list of the videos, like all of them to *control+f* and find specific words. I was wondering if anyone knew of such program I could use. However, I wrote this AppScript in Google Drive, of which I'm not sure if this will work. It **uses high level Google Account Access.** ```gs function getYouTubeTranscripts() { const CHANNEL_ID = "UCtMVHI3AJD4Qk4hcbZnI9ZQ"; // This below is what, before Oath (ing), is what Google is saying its unsafe, and does not let me continue... const youtube = YouTubeApp.getOAuth2Service().getService(); const videoIds = youtube.search().list("id", { channelId: CHANNEL_ID, maxResults: 50 }).items.map(item => item.id.videoId); videoIds.forEach(videoId => { const captions = youtube.captions().list("snippet", { videoId }).items; if (captions.length > 0) { const captionId = captions[0].id; const transcript = youtube.captions().download(captionId, { tfmt: "srt" }).getContentText(); DriveApp.createFile(`${videoId}.txt`, transcript, "text/plain"); Logger.log(`Transcript for video ${videoId} saved.`); } else { Logger.log(`No transcript found for video ${videoId}.`); } }); } ``` Just wondering of anything else I could use...

Agree with your stance on closing an app. I will probably end up doing this for my app, both on iOS and Android just because of your reason.
Synther 6 months ago • 100%
Alright, yeah, I had a feeling XCode allowed that. I am planning to test if he app works before uploading to the store because I wouldn’t bugs.
Do you also mean that it’s free to make a developer account, or is that $99? or just to allow the app (in tesflight) for testing purposes and not actual use.
I am planning on making an android app because I have a Google pixel 6 I got as a birthday gift and I love how open Android has gotten over the years. I was wondering if it’s worth saving up to develop an iOS app. (The same app on Android, but for iOS) I know that the AppStore can be a good revenue spot for my app, not sure. My app will be free + Open Source Software, GPL (Version 3) of which I plan to add my own premium features or either a donation option for the privacy advocate folks. I’ve had an iPhone 12 since 2021, and I’ve gotten used to our iOS works, how the system works in terms of iOS background and process’s. One question; > can I use GPL (version 3) for my iOS app on the AppStore? I’m just want your thoughts if I should… Thanks!

I was just wondering why my instance in particular chooses to block threads and instead let us choose to do so. I find it relates to big tech as, it’s there servers yeah, but running Free Open Source Software on top of that. Idk lol. Sorry if this posts seems weird.
So I want to make this post because I don't know why instances, mine specifically, choose to block others. Now, don't get me wrong that blocking instances that are CP related and anything illegal is something that should and needs to be blocked and/or removed. but if its something like Threads, let **me** choose to block a user myself, give me the freedom to do so. I've seen Brodie Robertson's [video](https://odysee.com/@BrodieRobertson:5/threads-is-going-to-destroy-the:8?r=UvSKyv4eJqiCmhmQBWuDfaRdPo1aj8zx&t=712) talking about this, and I whole heartily agree with his stance on this where letting the user have the freedom to block a user or instance themselves. --- I just feel that some lemmy instances are turning into big tech companies where they are controlling everything, and don't get me wrong, its their server space, do what you want to do, but at least since you are using foss to run your lemmy server, at least be different then Reddit or YouTube etc. I created a lemmy account just to have a more private experience from Reddit without being tracked all the time. guess I was wrong. --- not trying to get on the wrong foot here, I am just a fan of internet freedom, and I think you should have the right to do anything you want online, that's within legal waters.

Listen, it’s a screenshot from when I was using windows back in 2020. It’s from Facebook messenger, I just didn’t feel like downloading and uploading when Lemmy has a url link I can drop here. Sorry, I get why you hate Facebook, me too. I just find it convenient to use the link feature. Again, privacy badger is a useful add on I use that helps blocks Facebook and X (Twitter) widgets.
I was a windows user back in 2019 - 2020, and moved over to Linux in 2021. I honestly forgot how i found Linux, and when I was using Windows, I remember using this feature "Game Bar", which I used to make game clips on my PC. Although, when I got my NVIDIA Card the Game Bar Stopped working because of the HDMI cord that modern GPU's use. The Real Question, is there a program that replicates the Xbox Game bar? I really like the functionality that the game bar provides, and would like to start using it again, but on Linux. I was hoping if anyone knew of such program, or if you know the steps for me to build it myself. I found this [Repository](https://github.com/KPRCB/XboxGameBarExample.git) where someone made a clone, although it's for Windows, and not what I expected.
So I like this MacOS feature where your cursor displays in large. I was hoping if anyone knew of such software that replicates this functionality for Linux. Considering MacOS and Linux are both Unix, and libraries are different, could X or Wayland help replicate this? > [Source](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/312821/what-causes-a-random-giant-mouse-cursor)
Hi Game Devs! I am currently developing my Open World Video Game in the Godot Engine, and the only thing I need is a world. I got done most of the game, (character models still need work, but I can get that done once I figure out this world problem I have) I'm just not sure what to do in making the world. I know I could use Blender, and yeah that does sound like a valuable option and it could work, but I also found RenderDocs, which I saw a video on where you ~~used a chrome shortcut and RenderDocs captures that shortcut and grabs 3D~~, I actually have no idea how RenderDocs works, but I know I could use it too grab 3D locations using Google Maps. But I couldn't figure that out. I just can't edit the map afterwards if I choose this option. I'm also not saying that I want too make a massive world, especially like Fortnite or Grand Theft Auto V, I just want a simple but small sized world, but not too small if you know what I mean. I'm aiming for a map like [this](https://imgs.search.brave.com/WsToa7QrmFSb5u3cnZeLdOegprSfnrpWjIUpVdwVXxc/rs:fit:860:0:0/g:ce/aHR0cHM6Ly9uZXdi/aWVrZW5vYmkuZmls/ZXMud29yZHByZXNz/LmNvbS8yMDE3LzA1/L2xlZ28tbWFydmVs/X3N1cGVyX2hlcm9l/c19pbXBvcnRhbnRf/bG9jYXRpb25zX21h/cC5qcGc_dz05MDA). (I'm not making a lego game, I'd thought I mention this here.) I then remembered Unity was another option, but I don't feel like using it because of the whole debacle that happened with the engine. I also don't know if It's easy to import it to Godot. The last resort I can think of is using Godot to make it, and I did also find a video where someone made a map in Godot, like a very simple world. Options: Godot? Unity? RenderDocs? Blender? I'm just not sure what is the best choice.
Does anyone know how a map works, specially a woodland map? I’ve been playing the game for years, since 2013, and even from taking a long break for 4 years. I kind of forgot how maps work lol. I think I get it though. As the image I’ve added, do I head north west? Or is it south east as maps are opposite. I know I could travel through nether, it I like walking in the over world. Just a preference. But yeah, I’ve kind of forgot how maps work, but I’m not sure if it’s south I’m going or north.
So I've been customizing my system for a few days now to look more like a mac-book, and I've found this program called "plank", which is supposed to be a mac-like dock for Linux. However, it doesn't operate or function correctly, as I use fedora KDE Spin. I was trying to install Pantheon, but I don't think its supported anymore, or at least the package does not exist. ```bash No match for argument: pantheon desktop Error: Unable to find a match: pantheon desktop ``` I would love to know if anyone has any ideas to make my system look like MacOS, without a massive headache.
