Then users can pick between MAPS.me, Organic Maps and CoMaps. Crazy!!

I could not find any word of an iOS version of CoMap. Does someone know?

There seems to be a global option to reduce opacity, too. Anyway, I agree, contrast and readability is a problem with ideas like that.

Now, Phosh and Gnome look even better and more usable in comparison. But without Android apps or open APIs for all major services (to build native apps), postmarketOS can never be my daily driver for now.

At least, iOS changes like that increase the chance that the postmarketOS ecosystem will catch up. I whish I had the time or ressources to contribute in any fashion.

Can waydroid run on postmarketOS?

Is using the web version no longer possible? And: Will Xwayland not help you with that?

Yes. I can confirm, it works even on Gentoo. But I stick to the Flatpak version, anyway, because there I was able to tell it to use Xwayland instead of wayland directly (through Flatseal).

It seems the wayland support isn’t great yet and it tries to grab keys combination that are reserved for my window manager (Gnome). In the flatpak sandbox I don’t have any issues.

Only game running game detection will not work in the sandbox.

Or is there even a setting to tell it, using the X11 backend so that the keybind issues for the native version go away?

The “penguin” on the right is using a lot of LLM (“AI”) to get the job done.

If it enables the use of Linux at work I would install it, too. And use Edge for corporate ressources as well.

I am using it, too. I whish the vim-mode was a bit more complete.

and linear window managers: niri.

Yes, I tried PostmarketOS with Phosh on my old Lenovo Ideapad. It just works without tinkering.

I have gone from borgbackup to rdiff-backup to reduce complexity and dependencies. rdiff-backup’s incremental strategy needs more space than deduplication from borgbackup, but you don’t need fuse and borg itself to restore your latest backup.

With rdiff-backup you can just use cp -a to restore all your files. Only if you need a file you deleted ages ago, you need it.

I relied on borgbackup for a long time, never had an incident. But then I wanted to try the new replication borg2 feature and almost lost my original borg1 repo. With rdiff-backup you can just rsync the repo to another drive and have two copies of your offline offsite redundant backup. Encryption is a non-issue, you can run it on top of every other filesystem and LUKS or over SSH.

Granted, I just switched to rdiff-backup, but I am loving the simplicity of it already.

Finally I found the time to write down, how I use Ghostscript:

gs \
    -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
    -o /output/gs_file.pdf \
    -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress \
    -sProcessColorModel=DeviceCMYK \
    -sDefaultCMYKProfile=/path/to/ISOcoated_v2_eci.icc \
    -sColorConversionStrategy=CMYK \
    source/file.pdf \
    -f

I don’t now which of ProcessColorModel or ColorConversionStrategy is the important one. I kept both and did not bother to try to omit one of them. -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress makes sure that embedded bitmaps are in 300dpi and I think -f prevents Ghostscript staying in interactive mode after all pages have been finished.

I am also interested in any experiences, especially regarding the computers you can attach to these small displays. I often see RPi as an option, but I heared about RocketChip, too. What are the best platforms to drive these displays?

We learned the hard way that on a RPi4 you want a very good SD card if you are running nextcloud on it.

Why is it stagnant?

For my my father I only have to make sure it looks not so different after each major upgrade. I have to be careful when there are new things, but apart from that he can do everything for himself except these major upgrades and backups.

So, he is happy with Fedora and Gnome classic.

ghostcript can add a color profile, too. I use the regular ISO coated v2 (without the 300%). This is just a step to not do all things in Scribus by hand and make sure colors are not out of gamut.

I don’t now the command line from the top of my head. Just ping me again, so when I am on my computer I can send the complete ghostscript cli line that currently works for me.

The final profile is set up by Scribus, where I have set it to the ISO coated with 300%. Ideally I would like to have less steps in the chain, so that a change in the Inkscape-source involves less manually steps. One can dream of it. (:

I basically use it only for mail, although I have set up my calender there, too. The evolution-data-server makes it possible to access the calender entries using gnome-calender which has a modern gui.

You can still accept email invites in evolution and see them in gnome-calendar. It works very well with my radical server.

And second bonus, it integrates your dates with gnome-shell. Just disable notifications in evolution to don’t get them twice. (:

Evolution.

I have used Thunderbird a lot, but finally decided to go back to Evolution 2 years ago.
