I don’t think my kids have ever used a Windows machine. I have a couple of machines at home that both run Linux Mint and they use Chromebooks at school. There is not much software that they need that is not either a web page or also available natively.

Much of the time, the sites only put a small blurb and a link to the actual article in the feed, so you still have to click through to read it all.

Yes, obviously, I could Google this, but I’m looking for real peoples’ opinions. I’ve owned OnePlus and LG android phones previously to my current Samsung. I loved my OnePlus phones, but my current provider doesn’t support them.

Edit: LOL. I just realized you were suggesting Google as an android phone manufacturer.

What is the best Android phone manufacturer after we count out Samsung?

Oh, look. An U.T.B.A.P.H.

I abhor those Temu YouTube ads.

TikTok is correct. Ban them all.

My ADHD would not allow me to function without reminders.

Best side effect of the insulated bottles is not having to use a coaster because they don’t sweat.

Not sure I could get used to using transparent bags for dog poop.

I’m totally going to try this.

I still use Windows for work, but the last version I used on any of my personal computers was XP.

If AI is better than the existing voice-prompt systems, then I’ll take it, but I doubt it will be.

I see what you did there.

Navidrome is still the best music server, even with all of its limitations. For what it’s worth, the developer is currently working on features intended to support multiple music libraries. It’s going to happen eventually.

Does nextcloud deck have recurring tasks yet? I didn’t think it did.

Testify!

I always thought that the word “island” was just short for “isolated land” – There has to be some reason there’s an ‘s’ in there right?. But some etymologist told me it didn’t come to be in that manner.

I currently use AntennaPod with NextCloud’s version of GPodderSync; which is…adequate.

My ultimate solution would be one where a self-hosted app that tracks and download my podcasts, and then proxy them with some sync mechanism to an android app, but keep them as separate shows with artwork and stuff rather than consolidate them into one feed. I could then choose to listen on the self-hosted web interface or the Android app, and they would be kept in sync.

I use it! It is miles better than other Jellyfin apps for music, but there are still things I wish it still had.
