Recently flashed my #Librem5 with byzantium. And wanted to restore the data for the apps I use on the #librem5 (podcasts, rss feed, mastodon account, online radios, email). I simply copied the directories of those apps from my laptop home folder to the #librem5 home folder, and it was all there, and all the apps worked.
Yes, I know that for linux users the idea of syncing data across home folders is normal. But it still feels kinda cool to be able to do that between a laptop and a phone.
Insightful. We can't repeat often enough that @mobian , @debian , @postmarketOS , @manjarolinux and others would not be where they are now, without @purism adopting a cooperative upstreaming policy. We would wager that everyone purchasing a (true) Linux device now, benefits from your investments. There is plenty to criticize and nag about you ๐, but you are doing the whole FOSS community a service that could not easily be replicated by volunteers.
Do you like puzzle games? Box World 3D is a small but fun puzzle game made using #minetest, inspired by Box World/Sokoban
Have Single-Page Apps Ruined the Web? | Transitional Apps - Rich Harris, NYTimes @ JAMstack TV: https://invidious.hub.ne.kr/watch?v=860d8usGC0o
I'm very much a "traditionalist" as Harris calls us, I don't trust the code arbitrary servers have me run. But I'll be satisfied with "Transitional Apps"!
I do acknowledge that today JS might be required to build your best website, but I think that's less often than you think. And I aim to make it even rarer by extending the capabilities of HTML/CSS
@loke https://idiomdrottning.org/perfect Signal is the perfect example of what we should avoid, of the type of โgoodโ thatโs an enemy of perfect.
The improvement over FB etc isnโt big enough since we are still beholden to one corporation, and
getting people to switch to Signal will make it harder to get them to switch to something else in the future. You only get so many โyou should switch to such-and-suchโ per lifetime.
Weโre painting ourselves into a corner by recommending Signal, Telegram, Discord. It breaks my heart every time I see them recommended.
TIL that iphones regularly transmit the Mac addresses of devices attached to the same WiFi network to Apple. In addition to their geographical location of course.
So essentially you can be tracked across all locations where an iPhone is near you (and you haven't disabled your WiFi).
Wow.
