less really is more with more features. and more IS less with less features

Yeah.. todays social media is more a commercial ad platform than social media.

the fediverse is the new 'futuristic' social media since its main goal is to connect people and make social media more social

RIP to people who never shutdown or restart their PCs

Glad you like it!

for images, i use squoosh.app. it is a webapplication and not a desktop app. it can compress, convert & resize various image types. it is opensource and running offline (locally on your computer). github

Thanks for your reply!

ATAK may be a nice piece of software but the wrong app for my use case. It offers too many features I won't need, and the setup for it to work is probably too complicated.

I looked into Owntracks (just the app, haven't installed the server yet) and it looks more of what I was looking for. I tested the list of locations, but the location only gets displayed as coordinates and not on the map. Eventually, I will see some more features when having a server, but idk. Is there like a public server, so I can play around before putting too much time in installing the server?

I dont like Instagram at all, just all my friends are over there. And I hope some of them join here soon.

Im aware of that, thanks. Its just that all my friends & collegues still use Instagram. And if I quit there I dont have any contact over internet at all with them except for a few.

I also have a PixelFed account but dont really use it.

But does this also work for saved locations and not only the location of the device? Since the device location won't be the car location most of the time, I need the saved location synced and displayed, not the device location.

i love that comment😂

Actual definitions (my opinion):

  • HTML is website
  • CSS is style
  • JS is everywhere
  • SQL is data
  • Python is simple
  • PHP is backend
  • Markdown is README
  • YAML is config

as a young IT with friends who dont know much about IT i have to say that most around 20 use reddit, instagram, ... cause its the only thing they know. everyone they know uses them and many of them want likes, ...

if they would join the fediverse:

  1. they wouldnt understand how it works. what is a server? why choose an instance? its just too complicated
  2. all their friends dont use the fediverse. they would be alone and have nobody who they can share things to
  3. they would mostly see tech stuff and less in categories they are interested in
  4. none of the people they follow on instagram are here. the cant follow their celebrities, ... and see their content
  5. the fediverse still has to less users to be successful worldwide. its growing. and just like facebook in its first years, its growing slow.

=> give it a few more years and get your friends, family & collegues on here and see the fediverse grow

There wasn't an app called osmplus, but OsmAnd. It is kind of what I searched, except I haven't found a feature for sharing with my family. But thanks for your reply, it is the best app I tried so far.

Ohh that sounds great since I want to set up a nextcloud server anyway in the near future. I searched in the app marketplace of nextcloud for an app but haven't found anything matching...

Thanks for the reply! Although Mapstr wasn't built for my use case, it provides all the features I need, thanks. I can create multiple locations and give them a tag, and they automatically get shared to others. I'll test this app in the following days/ weeks and hope it is what I was searching for.

On Owntracks I only see the option for sharing the coordinates. They don't get displayed on the map with an icon or something similar. I have to manually put the coordinates in google maps to see the location

I have 2 sharing options: via Link or file. But I need a sharing option where I don't have to manually create and send to others.

my laptop is pretty good, its just windows using much resources. yeah i'd be able to but i only use it like 3h per week for one buggy app. its not worth it

my laptop probably has very similar specs to your laptop. also, windows just uses more computing resources than linux in general.

i dont care about if its few seconds faster at booting or has few percents more resources availabe after hours of configuring.

all i need for my apprenticeship is just a windows laptop to work with office365 and a few specific apps, which dont need full resources. but it has to be windows because of domain policy from ADDS.

my apprentice will end in a few weeks and since i wont need these apps anymore tomorrow in a week, ill delete the windows partitions from my laptop.

id appreciate you helping me and others with articles how to get a bit faster windows system, if id asked for it, but i didnt.
