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

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

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.

Another NixOS user.
At the Chaos Communication Congress #37c3 I played some forward Drum’n’Bass at a pop-up party stage. "[DJ? Tasmo - Unlocking Stage H @ 37c3](https://hearthis.at/tasmo/37c3/)"

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.

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

If you are open for something very goid but a little different take a look at the fabulous Niagara Launcher.

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.

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.

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.

Great idea and project!
I am afraid you already have a bot problem.

Fun fact: I use NixOS since six years now and at least in the first two years the Arch Wiki helped me a lot to understand the NixOS configuration options.

@Sintamo@beehaw.org Very nice!
I made a fork and put in a one file solution with @media
queries.

If you want to I can open a pull request. If not, never mind. :)

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?
tom42 1 year ago • 100%
To open a thread sounds like a gooid choice.
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.
While today's campaign for #Juneteenth, Bandcamp is donating 100% of their share of music sales to the #NAACP Legal Defense Fund > to promote racial justice through litigation, advocacy, and public education.

The process to ask simple questions like these is not a barrier for users looking for honest conversation.
That is one of the facts I did choose Behaw, because it shows the will for maintain a non-toxic community.

Also a big fan of notesnook. Just miss some formatting extensions which Osidian's community provides.

Nice, thank you for this recommendation! I am looking for an OpenSource replacement for Obsidian. Just miss a mobile app here.

This is how I run my daily driver since a time. Coming from Redhat -> Suse -> Debian -> Gentoo -> Arch (-> Fedora) I feel very stable with NixOS.
The main system is NixOS with Flakes enabled, the user apps are installed with home-manager and on top a couple of desktop Flatpaks.
In between I did try to switch back to other distros taking less compilation time but there are so many features in Nix keeping me.
- the immutable system
- reproducible builds
- switchable generations
- easiness to maintain in a Git repo
- very fresh
tom42 1 year ago • 100%
There is a huge difference in the result. With NixOS you run a immutable system where ths main configuration is built during the startup and not editable during the run.
With Ansible you can generate the configuration as well for every run though. But in most cases you will write hard config files.

Also switched recently from Fennec to Mull on GrapheneOS. Thank for the arkenfox hint!
tom42 1 year ago • 100%
It is more about a user's posts its reactions and corresponding comments. To switch means to loose everything.
tom42 1 year ago • 100%
Agree completely.
In my eyes the features that make email successful are the decentralization, that it is not a product of a company, the wide client support and that can be used offline.
The successor should have equivalent features.
I wonder if it is possible to move my own account to another Lemmy and take all content with me?
