  • Can do homescreen icons. It has a widgets “pane”. You don’t place them on the home screen but put all widgets together than swipe to widgets. You can configure kvaesitso so it’s not too different from stock android experience.

    I have 5 “favorite” apps at bottom of screen, above the search bar, similar to stock android.

    I swipe left for my app drawer, which allows for more pinned favorites above full list.

    I swipe up for all my widgets.

    Swipe down for notifications, like stock.

    Swipe right for my camera app.









  • Well my fiance likes the cat even more than me, so she loves the ramp. The stone wall just outlines a yard. I didn’t do the original landscape, but the backyard was sloped, so the previous owner flattened out a lot of it and then surrounded that part with the brick wall stone/things. You can see the max height of the wall, and that goes along the back fence (the side fence is pictured). I actually turned the back raised area into a garden several years ago, which was also a ton of work, because as I mentioned, the ground is like concrete, and I had to dig it all out and replace with nice soil.



  • No. But I can try to describe it.

    I cut small lengths of 2x4 (about 6 inches) and screwed these from the top of the catwalk, so that this board is parallel to the walking surface. The posts have a 18 degree cut at the top end, and then I used pocket holes to connect the post to the 2x4 on the underside of the catwalk with 2.5 inch pocket hole screws. If I were do again, I might try dowels. It was basically impossible to clamp properly to screw in the pocket hole screws, and it kept separating a bit. But in the end, everything ended up being very secure.



  • Personally, I don’t mind settings being in the bottom bar. But at the same time, I think what you have in mind would be fine too. I do like the idea of bookmarks in the bottom bar, as honestly, this wasn’t something I was aware existed until I read your post and found bookmarks in the profile menu. Of course, it seems obvious now with the common bookmark button next to the upvote/downvote… I noticed I had some items bookmarked, likely accidental presses as a result the button’s proximity to the up/downvote.

    I came from eternity, which had that the profile and settings in the left bar, which I also thought was fine.

    The one thing I do find inconsistent with the UI is how the app treats Subscribed, All, and Local versus individual communities. Clicking on Subscribed, All, or Local gives you the default UI with the navigation bar at the bottom, and then you can swipe to quickly go to another. However, clicking on a community in the left bar does not give you the bottom navigation bar and while you can click on another community to go to it, you cannot click on Subscribed, Local, or All to go to those aggregate feeds. You instead have to click the back button in the upper left on each individual community you navigated to.


  • “Sailing is like standing in a cold shower ripping up $100 bills.”

    I had a sailboat for a bit when I lived in Vegas. I absolutely loved sailing. I had a relatively small, cheap boat which was fine for lake mead. It was still expensive though. Everything continuously breaks on a boat.

    If I hadnt gotten my dream job in Colorado I would have wanted to live near the ocean and own a sailboat.
