Hi, I’m sbird! I like to make all sorts of things!

I like floorp, it’s very customisable!


as a recent linux “convert” running fedora workstation, it works fantastic :D


I’m not done with it yet! It’s mostly complete, this weekend I’ll probably polish it up a bit. The deadline for this project is monday, so it should be done by then :D


honestly, the little decorations (grasses, flowers, rocks) turned out REALLY NICE. I also think the dialogue UI looks cool too.


vscode is actually a pretty decent code editor for my needs. I use VSCodium which is basically the same thing except lacking support for a few proprietary extensions (most notably the Microsoft C/C++ extension, so I use clangd instead which for some reason was way easier to set up with copr repo on fedora than either on windows or with flathub on fedora…)


I recently installed Fedora on my own 2-in-1 flippy laptop, and it works well. The screen rotates when I rotate the device, touchscreen works, and the stylus works as well.


Email is always insecure, it was never designed for that kind of thing. If you want that, use a messenger like Signal or Element.
Proton Mail means that the email can still be read by malicious actors if you send or receive emails from non-Proton Mail users so it’s best not to use it for anything secure. No email is secure, and that includes Proton Mail. It’s still a pretty decent email though, if you’re okay with using their slow app over things like Thunderbird then it’s perfectly fine!


no custom domain. I’ve switched between I think four different gmails, one protonmail, one tutamail, and one disroot (my current one right now). I have set up mailfence for a sibling. Don’t know why I do that, but I do. Changing up the email helps clear out any old accounts I don’t use. I also change between my email name to various different things and such which is fun.


Cryptee is pretty decent, but I prefer using Joplin + Backblaze for syncing. Just my preference I guess. mailee and runbox seem quite good too, thanks for sharing!


But that only works with other ProtonMail users, and most people use other providers


Yeah but don’t think you could get Proton Mail working, for example, on your favourite mobile mail app.


I currently use an old iPhone that likely won’t need replacing any time soon. I hate Lightning and I hate Apple’s closed ecosystem, but this is what I’m stuck with. If I do get an android, f-droid seems like a good place to look for apps!


never heard of this one before, I might try it out! For me though, using invidious as a web app is perfectly fine, but Unwatched seems pretty cool


I have tried as much as I can use things like Organic Maps, NetNewsWire, etc. on my iPhone though. Unfortunately Apple isn’t very keen on opening up its ecosystem and most apps are not so open. If I ever get a new phone (it will probably be a long while until I do need one) it will be an Android since they are more open, have way more choice, and much better hardware (cameras, battery, etc.)


just sharing my experiences and such! :D


seems pretty cool. Never heard of Soulseek before, apparently it’s a peer-to-peer music sharing thing


unfortunately I still use an iPhone and it probably won’t need to be replaced for a few years. Reducing waste and all that, right?


Storing 2FA into your password manager kind of defeats the point of having two factors (one password to get all your passwords as well as 2fa). Besides, it’s just six digits.
Also, I don’t like the idea of “putting all my eggs in one basket”. Hence why I never really used Proton Drive, VPN, etc. Proton Pass is pretty decent though, but I like Bitwarden and KeePass more.
Also I HATE that Proton Mail doesn’t support the IMAP protocol that almost everyone supports (even Apple, the king of walled gardens, supports it!) and only kind of support it with their paid “Bridge”.
I mean that’s fair. I might get to doing that at some point
