Dash really sucks. Use it as an interpreter for /bin/sh and thats it

Fork GNOME

No joking, have a look at GNOME circle apps in languages you like

The only address book I know is thunderbird any maybe the GNOME or KDE suite (their Personal Information Management (PIM) Suite).

Maybe the small desktops have alternatives.

Thunderbird supports CardDAV for syncronizing contacts too. But it is unencrypted so I wouldnt use it.

Careful with this!

You need to change the repo priorieties to REALLY low, otherwise your system may downgrade packages and stupid shit like that.

Trust me, I extracted PopOS repos from ubuntu noble based PopOS and installed cosmic apps on debian. It worked, until it started messing up my system.

Use nix, it is way cleaner. On Debian I basically use nix for everything because many packages are missing or outdated.

The Gemini Protocol was there way before

Interesting concept. But this does not allow sharing or backing up, or does it? It still binds to a platform

Well it is some electron version, does that support it?

what, why not mix audio files and share an actual audio file??

With a cd you gift them a physical media with (shitty but) unrestricted access

Doesnt this just work with caching? Is the media actually stored forever?

There are plenty of music players for local files, so while the idea might fulfill some issue, I dont see the use case.

These are some crazy big things!!

Plasma-login is nice, has some very needed things

Plasma-keyboard is essential for anyone on a convertible or even tablet, as the old maliit keyboard is abandonware

The usb portal will be really useful

Ocr support in spectacle! This exists on proprietary android but not AOSP, and on windows too. Really neat. I hope the integration is nice, this is a really big UI task.

Bro fears normal distros

Is there a list of good GIMP 3 compatible plugins?

Compatible with them? Was that a requirement?

So security updates are open source? Not like security preview releases that are under embargo?

Well that makes it less problematic. Android apps are independent from the core OS and half of the people is running old versions, so the ecosystem doesnt really depend on the latest and greatest.

Still shit, but less bad.

1. Install F-Droid basic from f-droid.org
2. Search for “f-droid known repositories” on the web
3. Add the izzyondroid repo
4. Reload repos
5. Search for “money”
6. Profit

So GrapheneOS and any other OS that cares a bit about security need to ship proprietary updates.

And if this is everything of 6 months, this is pretty insane

Many

KMyMoney, GNU Cash, many other independent ones

Wtf…

Celluloid is honestly better than VLC. Native Wayland, Pipewire, no filesystem permissions (Flatpak)

I am on Fedora Kinoite, I replaced Kwrite with Kate, all the other default KDE apps are great. Okular, Gwenview as Flatpak, and apart from that a mix of different KDE, GNOME or 3rd party apps as Flatpaks.

I made a list here, but it is a bit outdated

Fixing their damn sandbox would be something truly useful.

Implementing a fork server so Flatpak AND Android Firefox can stop being fucking insecure for no reason.

AI is massively wasting power that we need for electrifying transportation and more useful things.

There are many things more useful than AI, for example good internet search engines.

AI can be useful for dedicated things like being trained on relevant tutorials and documentation to help with Linux.
