  • Understanding YouTube Frontend Options

    Jump

  • I'm unsure as to what info is sent other than your IP with Newpipe, but you're correct that it will get a VPN address instead. Commenting to suggest a fork of Newpipe known as Tubular. Has SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike functionality!

  • Do you have any recommendations for an opensource mood tracking app?

    Jump

  • Not sure if it has every feature you're looking for, but I was able to transition from Daylio to Daily You and be ok with it. Can't track what activities you did with buttons, but can track your mood every day with a journal entry for each day, and an image if you want. There's even a Python script to convert your entries from Daylio into Daily You!

    GitHub Repo: https://github.com/Demizo/Daily_You

    Repo for aforementioned python script: https://github.com/Demizo/daylio-to-daily-you

  • I'll admit I haven't watched a stream in a while, so twitch could have easily updated something, but in my experience, yes it blocks ads!

  • Use Xtra if on Android!

  • Mullvad VPN or Proton VPN?

    Jump

  • Mullvad is better imo, unless you need port forwarding. I'm currently using Proton since I pay for Unlimited for that encrypted drive space, and using their VPN saves me money since I just think of the payment as just for Proton Drive. This is a change I made just a few days ago though, for about a year I've paid for both Proton Unlimited and Mullvad, and I legitimately prefer Mullvad over Proton, it just made sense for me to switch money wise. Can't really go wrong between the two imo.

  • Linux Mint 22 is ready. The release date will be announced this week

    Jump

  • That's awesome! Thanks for letting us know!

  • Linux Mint 22 is ready. The release date will be announced this week

  • The update functionality for older versions to upgrade to the new version will be released a few weeks after the iso release of Linux Mint 22. It'll be an available upgrade in the Software Update Center application.

  • FUTO Keyboard: The Discussion Behind A Cool Product

    Jump

  • Ah, that height setting was hidden then lol. That fixes that issue! I'm also very aware of Heliboard, that's what I'm currently using (with the google proprietary blob for swipe typing). I just don't feel like the swipe is that good, it often just doesn't produce any word after I'm done swiping out the word. Thanks for the tip about the height!

  • FUTO Keyboard: The Discussion Behind A Cool Product

    Jump

  • Honestly, since I can see the source code and confirm that it isn't sending my data anywhere, I think it's ok, even if it doesn't meet the standard definition of foss. The keyboard is also pretty dang good, but I have two complaints. 1. I want to be able to resize the height of the keyboard. 2. The swipe typing sucks. As soon as those two things get fixed it's easily the best keyboard on Android for me.

  • Privacy on Cars. How to stop data collection and transmission?

    Jump

  • If buying new, I believe you can ask to have the modem removed from the vehicle, which wouldn't allow your car to access the internet. Haven't had the opportunity to try this myself yet, but very much plan on it for whatever vehicle I purchase new in the future.

  • Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions?

    Jump

  • I use Privacy Friendly versions of Sudoku and Minesweeper on the F-Droid store. I also really enjoy Nonograms (aka Picross), and haven't found a good foss app for it, but the app "nonograms.com" has been a good experience for me. I paid like $5 for the ad free version and that's been it, nothing else.

  • Do you prefer Gaming PCS or Gaming Laptops?

    Jump

  • They meant PCs, with the context meaning desktops. Not trying to be rude, to clarify, just giving context!

  • Colorado officials reach $8.5 million settlement with woman who was left handcuffed in a police car that was hit by a train

    Jump

  • Did you read the post you replied to? They said financially liable. Read through the quote you responded with and tell us where they are held financially liable. They are (rightfully) mad that it's the taxpayers that are effectively paying out the settlement instead of the police force.

  • Me with my VR sim addiction

    Jump

  • Could you tell us what this command does?

  • Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?

    Jump

  • Sorry, but I don't know how to do that. I use Cromite, not Brave.

  • Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?

    Jump

  • I have not experienced this, no. Unsure as to what that could be, but if another instance doesn't cause that issue that would be a good sign that it is the current instance you're on.

    Jump

  • I'm currently using searx.be with good results

  • Google Feed alternative

    Jump

  • I use Feeder which has been awesome so far for me

  • Scammers placing keywords related to a different app, hoping users get confused
