Off topic slightly but for music VLC for Android is even better compared to its desktop sibling for the same purpose. I mean VLC for desktop will play anything and I dont deny how powerfull it is but afaik:
Bit indeed for Android its super.
If it's just bookmarks can recommend Floccus and LinkWarden.
Got a work related variant, a 3 letter domain we really liked was registered by a person asking a couple of hundred bucks or so. Which really was a good deal and we were more then happy to pay.
Our IT department advised guiding the transfer themselves. Instead our marketing department went ahead anyway and just agreed to "you end your subscription and after that we register it" ... instead of using transfer codes.
In the minutes between, a bulk claimer snatched it away.
The new owner of Simple Mobile Tools? Buying it and then adware stuffing? ZipoApps?
Thanks! And I will remove it from my search index to restrain from "decluttering". 👌👍
"He himself is a billionaire" ... Glad the forker made that clear in the first paragraph.
Old saying still applies if something isnt working:
Linux: be root
Windows: reboot
MacOS according to other metrics tho. ... https://xkcd.com/1056/
I prefer FOSS as much as possible and didn't read all comments on YouTube but ... desktop applications are not SAAS. eg LibreOffice and Adobe apps. But I guess it only requires a different title as the list itself is useful
For my family my setup slightly different for reasons in other comments:
Now do support for Notepad++ plugins and language linting 😁😎😂
This baffled me to no end, but the -P flag did the trick.
eg Win11: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P as a shortcut.
Got used to always start with profile picker.
Sorry but I fail to understand the relation between your question and the additional text.
Are the bulletpoints requirements for a less over-engineered attempt ?
Or are they examples of the current situation?
And just software without protocol seems. .... oversimplification.
I became nr 10 or so in my country just by adding nearly everything SC can ask in ... a 10 block radius around my house.😁
Notes: Joplin
Maps: OSMand, Organic Maps, StreetComplete, Vespucci, EveryDoor
Music: VLC

I learned a lot in these comments but in this specific context:
These don't need decluttering I learned, but aren't managed by package managers either.
Restic Backup!
And the others it spawned : https://github.com/kdeldycke/awesome-falsehood
To understand correctly: You have friends that care about moving files of their mobile by sync? Or is their only concern switching to Signal, but the lack of backup besides on the device?
Asking because:
So when their photos are in the cloud and their documents stay happy in mail attachments often there isn't much more to backup besides configuration. Which all those bigphone (Samsung Lenovo Apple etc) suppliers provide.
For the chat backup:
I came across something like that in a proprietary "epub" format. Not because of formatting/styling but because of crossreferencing and footnotes it stored every word in a database with its position.
Openstreetmap 👀 👀 👀 👀

A comment here at a post from couple of days back would suffice https://feddit.de/post/8087327
If you wouldnt mind getting rid of Google search entirely ... settings, search, select Google, remove. I assume there is nothing to pin after that?
I'm really annoyed by this, thanks for verifying. Still bound to a employer laptop which uses Win11 in a Microsoft collaboration setting but eager to learn how to turn it off.
Sometimes I wish we could re-allocate half the dev hours poured in to the 10th txt/code editor, music player or terminal app in to this kind of thing.
As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.
Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.
Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).
But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don't know so I dont ask for them.
But ... every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.
some people even change default system fonts used in the deskop environment (menu's, filemanager etc) 😎😁
Agree, also I never encountered other software so flexible in user interface. Every feature can be placed with panels everywhere to your own liking. The whole app interface is like a canvas. Took me a while to get the hang of it but after that ...
Wished other apps were this flexible.
One of the few times I miss Files-on-demand for Win11. Connect an Office365 library with 500 GB to my laptop with an 128 GB harddrive. Integrates with file explorer, only caches local what you open, after a while you can "free space", meaning deleting local cache version. NextCloud has the same on Win11 because its an OS feature.
Yep, that would be the ip adres of my €5 a month VPS somewhere in an german datacenter.
Employer on a job meeting on an employer device that is. Clients? Not so much ...
I believe Firefox had their fair share of problematic clones but they dont protect from that by licensing their code in a special way. They protect their brand and use of logo etc
So you can use the code and create something "new", you just cant call it Firefox anymore.
Was just thinking the same.
I prefer something:
Searched for "bio link site", "linktree alternative DIY", "profile page" but most of them are Wordpress or other cms variants. Needing a complete docker setup to serve one page also seems to much.
So just a clean (in tracker free meaning) template with html css and some assets?
Linux 24H1
AFAIK its "by design" meaning an inherent property of the fediverse.
If I dont follow someone or my instance isnt federated with those of other followers we cant see each others comments or likes etc
Yes I know of and use the bridged Matrix Room. But bridges can't mimic or replicate every function which has effect on dialogue between users on both sides.
True, but managing expectations is needed tho, mainly about exit strategy:
If a community needs to leave, the content on Discord must be considered "not important", "not transferable" and "not archive worthy".
If Discord changes freemium, limits users or otherwise applies enshittification just leave your stuff and start over.
Its in the original post. To create a distraction less or more less environment to prepare for exams.
