Just your friendly, neighborhood, geek who loves to crochet.
I would probably evaluate it based on what sort of gains could be expected and for how many people? If it’s only going to be a couple of percentage points for a couple of people, then I would say don’t bother. But if it could make a substantial difference, or impact a larger portion of people, then that starts to sway the decision.
I can’t see the pictures at all. Neither on my desktop (web browser, Firefox) or on my phone (Voyager)
Why not just let Firefox open the PDF? It will read them on its own. Is it missing a feature you need?
Beautiful!
I haven’t needed one since I somehow managed to uninstall the new one and downgraded it to the Windows 7 version of the photo viewer, but ImageGlass looks nice!
Thanks, that’s good to know! It may have been around the 2.8 timeframe. But it definitely sounds like it’s gotten better. I’ll definitely be trying again.
I use it on Windows. Admittedly it launches better in Linux but it takes an age to launch in Windows. But yes, that was some time ago. Version 2.04 or something like that.
My question is: does it launch faster? I love GIMP for how powerful it is while still being free, but I hate how long it took to load. I was using less powerful alternatives on a regular basis just because I didn’t want to wait for GIMP to open.
I’ve been looking for a new launcher. Though this one isn’t selling itself with no screenshots. I don’t use telegram, so I don’t know if there’s screenshots in there.
Edit: They posted screenshots in the Google Play page. Found them.
I’m using Voyager and everything’s been good for me.
I wasn’t aware that we all had to adhere to YOUR standards of which softwares are useful/needed.
Sometimes people just want something. Maybe it doesn’t align with what you want, but that doesn’t make it wrong.
I use bypass paywalls clean on Mull by activating the Secret menu and choosing to install add-on from file. Works great for me.
Secret menu is in the About Mull page (tap on the logo 5 times) then back out to the settings pane to see some additional settings items added like install add-on from file.
How extensive of editing are we talking? If you just need some of the more basic features, there is Paint.NET which is surprisingly useful for a lot more than you’d think. Definitely not as feature-rich as Photoshop though.
Ya… I’m with you 100%. It really feels like commercial software is the “minimum viable product” rather than a complete and quality piece of software. I’ve opted for FOSS solutions wherever possible for me and it has worked out swimmingly. Only place I’m still struggling is my home PC. Making the jump to Linux and potentially risking game compatibility is still a bit of a hurdle for me, but once my Win10 license loses support, Linux will be a very strong contender for my main OS.
I think (but I have not tested) that if you can use the DeDRM plugins to import your books into Calibre… You might be able to use Calibre’s conversion function to make them all ePubs (which are Kobo friendly). I don’t have a Kindle but I do use a Kobo and have had to run DeDRM and some conversions to make books compatible.
Good luck!
Jellyfin? Or SubSonic? I don’t know if SubSonic is still around, but I’ve heard good things about Jellyfin.
Android auto definitely doesn’t work (I tried Calyx briefly earlier this year).
What also doesn’t work without a lot of finicky tricks is Google Calendar. I myself haven’t quite gotten rid of Gmail and my calendar in Gmail yet, and that was a big headache I was not willing to live without just yet.
Outside of those two things it served my needs but I did not try any of the Microsoft products so I can’t speak to those.
I’ve not used it personally (I use Plex), but I have heard great things about Jellyfin. Does it maybe have the feature you need?
As long as it’s optional.
I am so sick of algorithmic crap it’s not even funny. As long as I can turn it off, then by all means, develop away.
I’ve been using this keyboard for a couple years now and I really like that it’s just a keyboard. No fluff, no bloat, no internet required. Just a good keyboard.
