Well who knows?

I have no problem switching to an alternative is Cromite bellies-up tomorrow.

For now though I’ll stick with it.

The biggest problem is the scarce availability outside the US.

Or should I say, that the biggest problem is software (OS) compatibility with other devices than the Pixel?

My money is on the latter.

Why?

Cromite is excellent.

Too bad it’s chromium based, but works a whole lot smoother and snappier than Firefox based browsers, oh and safer as well… So for the time being, Cromite it is.

Librewolf on desktop Linux is my weapon of choise.

Hmmm. That could be what’s slowing down the GPS locking on my old android phone I use for my fitness app.

No SIM card or WiFi access. Takes a good 20 min just to get a GPS lock.

That means it fucks up my distance monitoring and time intervals, if I don’t have patience to wait, which I honesty don’t!

The app is basically a fancy timer at this point.

;)

“Old age” disks!

Hahaha. That’s hilarious.

Just like society labeling.

Yes I’m sure.

Not really searching for 'em though. :)

Ouch!

Pierced my heart, that one.

Even Picard gets some metadata wrong on auto. Don’t trust it blindly.

Be careful and only do changes manually.

Key features:

• Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)

• Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.

• AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.

Sorry to budge in like this, but I don’t use any of these garbage social platforms, at all. Copilot is also strongly against my belief of the right to online privacy.

The reason why I started to selfhost and use opensource apps/OS, was to get away from all this nonsense.

Lemmy is the only platform I use, used to be on reddit, because the main purpose is to help or to get help/advise on issues. Like the old forums.

I’m a firm believer that social platforms are destroying generations with its toxic/competitive environments.

Rant over.

Shower me with downvotes if you believe I’m wrong.

Personally I use gonic with the Subsonic API, and Ultrasonic on Android.

Gonic is a super lightweight subsonic API server with a very basic static stats “dashboard”. As so, it’s great for lower end devices. Only problem is that it sometimes fails to pick up the album art is some cases, if that don’t disturb you, then it’s great.

Airsonic (abandonedware) is the best subsonic server in my option. It displays all album arts correctly and is folder based which works much better than Navidrome’s Id tag reader, which is a dumpster fire.

Airsonic is on the heavier side on ram usage, around 1GB. Can probably run just fine on 500mb. Probably around what Jellyfin uses.

Ultrasonic is a great android app. It is just not updated for quite some time now.

I’m also running Jellyfin and I’ll experiment with Finamp. Let’s see if it takes the number one spot from Ultrasonic :)

Edit: Ultrasonic’s strong point is also the caching of music for offline listening. Not sure if Finamp has the capability.

Edit2: Yes, it can cache music.

Yeah WTF happened?

A tool I use daily!

Edit: see screenshot posted on syncthings page on github about 6 hours ago.

I’m hoping for a new fork comes along. If a new fork is only available on F-Droid/Github and not on playstore, then I’m ok with that. Fuck Google.

Edit 2: Maybe Syncthing-Fork can pick this up as mentioned here.

I just don’t like the layout of Tempo. Don’t like side scroller, with bunch of stuff showing up in tiles. I’ll stick with Ultrasonic until something better comes along.

That’s why I don’t like Navidrome, have to click on “more” to update the lists, as well as being a horrid id tag app. Fucks up your music unless all your idtags are set up perfectly.

I love the artist list in Airsonic. It just works. Still use it today although dead for a long time. Even if it looks like an 80’s app. Been using it with Supersonic on my Linux box.

Oh well.

Wonder IF this is better than Ultrasonic. Had been a while since it was updated.

Let’s see.

Good to see more love to subsonic servers for the homelabbers.

Yeah, Tumbleweed has a good track record with NVIDIA drivers in my experience. As with updates in general.

Although I still use X11 as Wayland still has graphical issues in some apps for me. Usually Flatpaks. That makes it unusable for me for the time being.

Edit: I have an older card (1050ti), so maybe I don’t get the latests drivers anymore?? On version 550.

Yes, Docker apps are more appropriate for servers and most apps are “made” to run 24/7 to serv the home or workplace.

They are very much worth the “work to setup” as they can be transfered/replicated to any system.

Flatpak and the alike are for running apps on a desktop/laptop.

That’s funny since Nextcloud is a bloated mess.

“Unreliable Backup” is probably the worse.

Wait, I have a better name. Duplicati!

Found a Swede in this joint! Cheers.

Criminals according to what standard ? In some countries, activism or sympathy with a cause is considered criminal behavior.

Exactly!

It is a slippery slope.

Even with services like Proton (big company in the privacy realm) etc, you can only fully trust yourself.

That’s why documents are always client side encrypted before I send my data, to any cloud platform.

I’m really on the last page with Whoogle.

It’s a great app, been using it for privacy a long time now. All creds to the developers.

But as Google Search continues to get worse and has been for a while now, I’m going to start to selfhost Searx instead. I’m currently using a public instance.

Truth to be told, I think all search engines are getting worse. But with Searx at least you have more sources in one app.
