  • Where would I find the Android releases of Stellarium to do so? Their github only hosts Linux, Windows and MacOS releases.

    Looks to me like Stellarium mobile is closed source because they want to monetarize Stellarium mobile +.

    More FOSS apps on my notebooks with Fedora, but not on a daily basis.

  • Opinions on /e/OS

    Jump

  • In my personal opinion it's significantly better! Though me testing /e/OS was in its early days.

  • Opinions on /e/OS

    Jump

  • I'd recommend iodéOS instead of /e/OS as the former is considered a bit more secure than the latter, see overview of Custom ROMs here (summarized from a well known German IT-Security Blog). You can also buy a FP5 with iodé preinstalled.

  • Getting this error when updating KeePassDX from F-Droid. Is it safe to update?

    Jump

  • Which device, OS, and app for F-Droid are you using?

    I don't get this error (using NeoStore on a Pixel 7 with GrapheneOS).

  • Auto update not working on GrapheneOS

    Jump

  • Opinions on that really differ es you might have read, too. I would look at the alternatives in general and choose a well maintained one.

  • Auto update not working on GrapheneOS

    Jump

  • Running GrapheneOS 2024111800 on a Pixel 7 I get notified, when updates where downloaded but still have to install them manually.

  • Auto update not working on GrapheneOS

  • Symphony, One of the best open source lite weight offline android music player

    Jump

  • I loved Pretty Good Music Player and am since then looking for a good FOSS folder based player. For now I'm using Foldplay.

  • New phone, new OS? Is it worth switching from Lineage/microG to Iodé?

    Jump

  • No app is completely uninstallable. But the one app in Iodé that can't at least be uninstalled via system settings is the Iodé tracking protection.

    Iodé is considered one of the more secure custom ROMs and friends of mine and me are quite happy with it (running on a Terracube 2e, a Fairphone 3, and a Fairphone 4).
