Many thanks. May I also ask if there is an alternate frontend client or perhaps an android app for kbin ?

Well, by “good” I meant general purpose, no NSFW, federates with bigger instances, consitent uptime … etc.

Kotatsu is a good one, people often don’t recommend kotatsu. Maybe that’s because tachiyomi offers more features.

I use nextdns in ‘private dns’ options on my android phone to block ads. This give me the option to use VPN, which I wouldn’t get if i use DNS66 or Adaway.

On my old phone i used Florisboard, it was pretty good and it’s FOSS as well.

These days I use the samsung keyboard as I recently switched to a samsung device. The keyboard customizations are really awesome, if you have KeysCafe module installed. Not sure how privacy friendly it is tho.

I have not used kbin yet. Is there any feature that really makes it worth using over Lemmy ? I’m curious as I want to try it out sometime.

P.S - I use Lemmy through wefwef

2 months ago I bought a regular samsung galaxy s23 and it’s been running great so far. I expected MIUI levels of bloat, but surprisingly it is not that bad.

I had to disable a few samsung apps and for the most part, the phone stays out of my way and lets me do whatever i want.

I wish the s23 lineup gets good custom rom support. Would love to run a lean LineageOS / any AOSP based rom with MicroG on this phone.

I’m not an iOS user, but I have seen something like revanced which can be sideloaded.

The app was called uYou+ or something, i don’t reacall the actual name.

You can go to their official website and download it - https://f-droid.org/

Personally I prefer to use fdroid through Droid-ify.

You’re right. I can’t imagine using windows without scoop or chocolatey.

Opensuse is great. Yast was more useful than I initially thought.

On a different note - For people who like tinkering, nixos can also be a great option, it also allows rollbacks but doesn’t use BTRFS snapshots out of the box like opensuse.

I don’t understand why moving to discord is a thing when we have Lemmy serving the exact same purpose as reddit but even better.

Check if ‘organic maps’ app is available on ios. Thats what i use on android.

I wish Graphene also supported other devices apart from Pixels.

It’s independent.

At first, I also told myself that I didn’t have the time. Then i tried it… felt like there’s a lot to learn, it was similar to when I first started using Arch.

Originally I intended to remove it after trying for a week, but it’s been over 2 months and I have yet to expeience any issue. I’m gonna be staying with this one for a while.

I’m curious how software can last shorter. Could you maybe give me an example ?

The only way i can think of is companies reducing software support.

It’s possible that Apple may do this, but for android - it’d just result in a thriving community for Custom ROMs.

Okay. So although all the apps support activitypub - only similar apps can replace each other ( like mastodon with calckey)

Apps with different feature sets will have to remain seperate, but will allow following users from different apps (lemmy and mastodon for instance).

Basically there is no single app that can do everything (as of now)

This is idea that i get after reading through the comments. Please correct me if i’m wrong

I used tumbleweed for about an year with no problems. The installer was a bit different and not much user friendly but it had a lot of options that i wanted.

I don’t know how it was 5 years ago, but these days I think it’s doing pretty good. I’d consider it over fedora if I need a rolling release distro.

Years ago I started out like this, then gradually started reading and understanding the stuff.
