genuinely just a horrible take

it lacks Wayland support.

It lacks wayland support in the sense that the UI won’t run on Wayland. It can take screenshots on Wayland.

I know.

Not only have I written about this before on related forums, but also have I talked and partially written about the AVBRoot Project and others which bring root access closer to the Android security model.

well expecting to use a tool made for X on Wayland is expecting a boat paddle to move a car.

Should be as simple as a shader on-top of Weston or sum 🤷

There’s other reasons to use Magisk for this instead, like not having a VPN slot free or wanting to use another DNS Server

PiHole allows temporarily disabling, including a time (e.g "disable for 30 seconds/2 minutes/1 hour) and setting different filters for different users ;)

It’s pointless, but it’s customization.

Either way, XFCE already has plans for Wayland support

There’s elementary/pantheon tweaks for titlebar editing, other than that you just click the app’s icon on the dock again.

On the topic of void, note that they offer a glibc version too

On the startpage of the settings there’s an animation speed slider, including an option to turn them off entirely.

Late reply, but piped.adminforge.de is my server of choice, with piped.smnz.de and piped.lunar.icu as alternatives

horrifying

ScottTheWoz ain’t who I expected here, but I guess it fits the topic

lol that sounds like an existing old-YouTube bug that ReVanced also suffered of a while ago.

You’d wanna use an up-to-date version, but that’s hard on such an old android version

I’d suggest - even tho it isn’t 1:1 the same - that you export your subscriptions from Google and import them either into LibreTube (closer to the official YT app) or NewPipe.

Because LibreTube uses the (awesome) Piped Project to load videos and info, you can also sync data using it and your favourite piped instance. (piped.video, piped.smnz.de, piped.adminforge.de are personal recommendations)

I agree! It’s actually it’s own protocol, being built on top of the IP (internet protocol) ofc

The webpages are essentially pure text. No JS, and everything is designed to be super privacy-friendly. Gemini is like the pinnacle of the SmallWeb

Well yeah, LibAdwaita is the flagship implementation of GNOME’s design guidelines.

It recommends new users to just install everything with it, instead of looking for native alternatives.

There’s actually the “Zorin-exec-guard”, which runs when you wanna use an AppImage (for integration) or windows app and tries to match the filename to a known list of either native versions of the program or native alternatives. It then prompts you if you wanna use those instead.

They’ve also released a migration tool for a future Z16 > Z17 migration and migration between Core & Pro.

Another thing, the extensions and everything needed for pro layouts is all in the repos but disabled by default. You can all enable it manually.

Make sure you really only selected YouTube subs, otherwise they’ll give you like 6 50gb ZIP Files (depending on how much they know about you 😉)

I would wager a guess and say that many joined long before they got this bad, probably because back then their visions and values were a lot more aligned

Nowadays I rarely see more than hectic startups and Big Tech, both of which have massive downsides which affect people outside of their field too.

Additionally, especially at the HQs of Google and others, many SWEs live in vans on the street because rent is too high, they cannot just work somewhere else as that won’t actually change the situation
