You can’t change icons from the system/launcher settings. Individual apps can offer icon options, but they are internal to the app.

Yes, I think that's it. Their website really don't make it easy to figure out...

No users to answer questions? No problem…

Not surprising. The quality of their articles is usually mediocre at best. I occasionally look at their RSS feed and most of what I see is “How do I achieve <trivial task>”–style posts.

I look forward to trying Boost, even though I only used it for Reddit briefly, several years ago! On desktop, I like the Lemmy web UI just as well as Old Reddit.

What did they do?

Negative feedback is important.

Exactly. Without it, we'll have the same problem that YouTube has without dislikes, where a video with a hundred likes and a thousand dislikes appears as a generally liked video...

There are a few default instances in the settings page, and you can add your own as well.

That's it! If you don't specify a host path, i.e. the path before the colon, Docker will create an volume which saves any changes you make to that path in the container, but won't mount any existing path from the host to the container.

CarPlay and Android Auto actually work well, and you can use the apps that you already have on your phone. The screens are generally more convenient and restrict view less than a phone holder stuck to the window. But without those, I agree that I'd rather have no screen than one with crappy media controls and the car's own navigation.

I used to follow the OnePlus magazine on the old site. I can't remember the last time I read something good a OnePlus user said about their phone.

Personally, I think Ubuntu is the most friendly distribution when you're starting out, just because there are many tutorials written for it. I also think more things work out-of-the-box than on RedHat-based distributions.

If you're on iOS, some great options are (in no particular order):

• Memmy
• Mlem
• Liftoff

How is the battery drain for you? I'm under the impression that it destroys mine, even though I set it to only run when charging, so I often end up killing it.

I’ve used lemmy_migrate in the past and it’s good for one-way copy. I’ve also seen lasim, but I haven’t tried it. You may find other options on awesome-lemmy.

Yes, you can connect the device behind CGNAT to your existing VPN as a client. Then, from inside the VPN, you would use the its virtual address to connect to it. You can use a systemd service or similar to have the VPN connect at boot.

They've moved to a cloud-based, subscription model for the new version (Blockada 6). You can still get Blockada 5, which is offline and free, for now, but it may be phased out at some point.

To me it shows the GitHub repo (at the top of the results), but not newpipe.net.

The developer has just announced that Relay will continue to function and will switch to a subscription model, so there probably won't be a Relay for Lemmy, unfortunately :(

Glider looks great! Thanks for the recommendation!

Could you share what your favourite features of Infinity are? I’ve never used it before, here or on the old site.

I can't comment on zypper, but I suggest you use dnf -C when searching for packages. This will use the local index cache and will skip some of the overhead or checking—and possibly updating—the cache, thus making searches much quicker.

Yes. All devices connected to the VPN will have a private IP inside the virtual network. You can use these to communicate as though they were public IPs, except that they can't be used from outside the VPN.

But why would you need to disable mobile data when you enable WiFi? WiFi is automatically preferred, so having the mobile data toggle on or off doesn't matter while connected to WiFi.

The Meta bullshit. I get it, Meta bad mmkay, but it's been on my front page every time I've come here for the past few days. We really can stop now...

I was skeptical at first, but it’s great! It properly parses repos, it shows you a preview of where you’re about to download from, and if there are multiple assets in a release it lets you pick the right one. And then it does auto-updates just like an F-Droid client!

He claimed he DMed the admins. I can't see any public post about it.

I’ve had great experience with AMD GPUs on Wayland. Unless you run into specific issues, I don’t see a downside of running Wayland. With NVIDIA, chances are you will run into issues very quickly, unfortunately…

Yeah, this is the problem. If you watch YouTube every day, sure, I get it, storage and bandwidth cost money. But if you’re an occasional user who watches a few videos a week, no way is the subscription worth it.

Thanks! I'm leaning towards this option. Have you noticed any battery drain? Blockada seemed to affected my battery life sometimes.

PIF?

You don't need every device to be able to talk to every device. As long as devices don't become isolated, changes are eventually propagated to all copies, even if not all in one step.

It is also sometimes annoying when you try to crop the margin of a photo and the cropping area overlaps with the back gesture trigger area. But for me gestures win every time because the back gesture, which is the most common of the 3 operations, is available anywhere my thumb currently is, not just on the bottom edge of the screen.

Use opusenc directly. It preserves covers and the CLI is literally opusenc --bitrate B INPUT OUTPUT.

PairDrop is an improved version of SnapDrop that works both locally and over the Internet. I've found it more reliable to set up.

What do you use for you DAV server?

There is also an other approach: encode your media a priori into a format that you can play direct, and then you don't have to worry about transcoding performance. The advantage of this is that you can likely get better quality encodes.

I also don’t understand how not commenting is supposed to discredit Verge. And what does the Verge guy mean when he says “so we’ll just print this statement every time”? How is that going to help them?

You remove the instance's domain name from the URL, the same way you remove reddit.com when linking to subreddits. You then append it at the end of the URL with an @. For example, https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy --> /c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

EDIT: Starting with Lemmy 0.18.0, you won't need to do this manually anymore!
