Thanks I just tried PassAndroid, pretty slick! I was using KDE Itinerary (way more features and always improving, but not too polished yet) to manage tickets before, now I have an alternative.

Regarding wireguard I always used WG Tunnel from f-droid, I’m looking at the official Wireguard app screenshots and it seems to have the same functionality (easy config import via QR scan, notification shade button), maybe it looks prettier. Not on f-droid, that’s why I didn’t come across it before.

A lazy option to set up a player (what I do a t least), is installing via flatpak Jellyfin Media Player. For android, installing from F-droid.

Awesome! I love this app for its widget, it’s very quick to jot down some notes during the day, and you can scroll the note contents from the homescreen.

Together with the Gallery they were my must-haves from Simplemobiletools, now from Fossify

This is a good approach. I would not even use Izzy’s repo shown by OP (at least not on a daily driver device - great for testing newer apps I’m sure) because I don’t see it as advantageous to get updates so quickly or access to apps that are not yet (or will never be) fully open source.

Basically I see most of the value of F-Droid in their build server and official repo. So I only add repos with a very short list of apps, like microg and KDE.

I can always install the odd apk manually, or use Aurora store (preferably in the work profile)

I like Kde Itinerary for traveling so I add the Kde Android repo

It’s all about having the .lrc file, it gets read automatically (as long as it’s named like the song file) by mpv player and many android players.

It’s a simple text file containing the lyrics with timestamps. You can get them from deezer for example with certain downloaders. Or look for them on Soulseek.

TIL about MPR, thanks mate

Thanks for these infos, it’s very interesting to get a glimpse of what goes on behind the “scene”. Makes what you do even more impressive, keep it up 🙂

And I’m sure if dwarfs gets more popular and well maintained, it’ll get distributed more, so it’s not an issue. Also after commenting here yesterday I tried a quick tiny game (Jetstream) on a debian install and saw that dwarfs release on github comes with a dwarfsextract package that’s usable standalone, no installation required, in a few minutes I was playing the game’s exe bypassing the script.

Appreciate the response, I guess my point of view is of a patientgamer, that would not add extra pacman repos just to check out a game…

But I see how you guys have/want to keep up with the cutting edge to offer serious competition, and so from there the need of standardization and not doubling of the efforts makes perfect sense

I’m probably in the minority of gamers, but in the majority of linux users, and most of those that I know even forget they can play casually on their machine and instead rely on consoles or secondary pcs for fear of breaking their main system

In any case your collection is incredible, so if it makes people interested in installing a rolling distro and avoid that windows partition or closed up console, that’s a huge win in my book. Thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻

I like their work a lot but I wish they didn’t use dwarFS, simply because it’s not easily installable on most distros.

They suggest Arch or other very up-to-date distros to play their games (and it’s true that you get the best experience with the latest AAA games) but in reality 90% of their releases are tiny indie games (that they insist on compressing with dwarFS) or older games that’d run very well even on a Debian oldstable, it’s a pity they’re kinda cutting out a lot of potential users

Lately I’ve been playing only small games on my laptop, I’ve been getting the windows gog releases (freegogpcgames.com) and installing them into Lutris, it’s super convenient

This is true but if you open tens of websites as many people do every day (some keep them open for months!), what kind of monstrous VPN setup should you have to have tens of IPs?

I don’t think there’s a realistic solution other than using TOR as much as you can bear…

CookieAutoDelete and Temporary Containers fool 99% of websites and trackers, especially with uBlock Origin it’s the best you can get without losing convenience…IMHO

But all the incognito tabs share the same “container”, if you keep a lot of tabs open like me, try the Temporary Container extension with automatic mode. Also CookieAutodelete on Auto (it deletes cookies and local storage after a tab is closed for e.g. 15s)

Was about to write the same thing as your last paragraph, the “wanting to be first” aspect. But you also made me realize how Cam rips might have been an important service in the past. Today we are drowned in new web-dl stuff constantly

I’d even get the Xvid DVDrip of it, but never the cam rip they are vile 😂

A 2tb sata ssd goes for like 65 coins nowadays…pick AV1 & HEVC and you won’t be able to watch that amount in a year…so you can seed for a year too! :)
