Sadly most manufacturers still don’t care about linux support. If you are lucky sometimes there’s a community alternative. But even then some of the advanced features may not work.

What you can do is check on their website which drivers they have available, and avoid buying stuff that doesn’t have Linux support when possible.

With more adoption I hope that it becomes increasingly available, although in practice I’ve seen several products drop their Linux support due to low users. 😢

It has an app, altough i never managed to set it up correctly. (I can log in but it shows empty)

I dont see why it need blockchain unless it’s needed to keep a registry. Which for day to day communication I think it’s excessive

Charging for themes and tech support seems fine to me. As long as it’s possible to do it yourself.

They need to make money, to continue the development and that seems a good compromise

I don’t understand what’s the bonus of suscribing for those updates. Are they better or come before everyone else gets them?

Don’t give them more ideas

Sadly its really hard to change habits. But it goes both ways, every time I need to use windows I find myself grunting for every minor thing that doesn’t work as expected.

At least to compare software you can use alternativeto.net

It seems that the best way to avoid AI slop is to find a small community on the the topic.

Came here just to say that. Avoid WD.

The generic displays I’ve used are always too fragile. If possible get the original

Planka is a good option, altough its more like an alternative to Trello. You should check it out and see if it works for your use case

I just use that for sharing memes with whoever sees it.

Yep, I went to check it as soon as it got announced thinking it would be a couple bucks for a monthly mystery album. but it’s the same price as a regular one. Maybe if could be worth it later when it gets more clubs since you could find one that fits an specific niche. Rightnow the four ones feel a bit generic

For smaller folders I like using syncthing, that way it’s like having multiple updated backups

Or a pair of great tits

• Are you still left handed?

You can check their capacities and speeds with software like cpu-z.

You can use windows freely without activating, or at least you could last time I needed it.

I’m looking for the same. I’ve used moon reader on android and it can sync progress between devices. Also it supports WebDAV, so calibre may work but I haven’t tried it

I mean that the abstraction and “security” measures have made it very difficult to get where are the files. It’s not thinking in any app in particular.

To give you an example:

• descent( boardgame app), we tried to get a backup of the campaign in progress to change the phone. But there was no easy option on the app and the phone wouldn’t let me access the directory where it should be saved. (Funny thing is that it was only blocked on the phone we wanted to backup, on other phones we were able to access those files)
