Are there any launchers that have Nova’s 2 best features?

1. Swipe-to-open folders (with tap to open the first item in the folder)
2. Set any icon you want as an app icon?

I’ve tried Lawnchair and it was missing these 2 features. I will switch to any launcher that supports these!

I didn’t read Solrize’s comment as saying “There shouldn’t be paywalls,” just asking the very legitimate question as to how they will interact with federation.

Interestingly, 404 just solved something kinda related: they developed a way for subscribers to get a custom RSS feed address, so they can access paywalled articles directly in their RSS reader. TMK, they are the first publication to do this. I imagine they would do something similar for federation. (I believe that if any of the custom RSS feeds show huge traffic numbers, 404 shuts it down, but I’m not sure)

Surprisingly, one of the only groups to use this calendar IRL was a giant international corporation: Kodak

There’s a push to get OpenReads to work with BookWyrm

My Asus Zenfone 8 is still going strong after 2+ years. Case and screen protector help, of course

It’s not real but I don’t understand who benefits from faking this

No 😔

Thank you for this great tool!

Is there a way I could use this to find a Lemmy instance that let’s me interact with desired instances? For example:

• I want to participate in Instance A, B, and C.
• A has defederated from B and C
• can I generate a list of instances that let’s me interact with A, B, and C? Then I’ll move my account there.

Thank you!

If you’re talking news media, much of their worst behavior is rooted in the ad-driven business model. Subscriptions would actually help make things better. Not sure if there’s a way to leverage the fediverse for a subscription play, though

Gonna need to know more. What method do you use to lock your phone? Is it rooted?

Also: did they return the phone to you, or to your friend? Could it be your friend who went through these apps?

My only wish is that they made a smaller version. I realize that that’s probably impossible, given their goals (smaller phones are probably harder to repair). But man do I miss small phones

Do I need Droid-ify, Obtaniun, and F-Droid Basic? Feels like there’s a lot of overlap there, no?

Wow, that’s crazy! Hey, would you mind linking to a comment where someone says “Gas the Jews?” I can’t seem to find one.

Also, if you have time, can you link to an explainer for “trans ideology?” Is that like Caitlin Jenner (pro-Trump, anti-speed limit)? Or something else?

Hey just out of curiosity, can you give us one of these “wrong opinions”?

Thank you. As someone who is very interested in Linux, and someone who has proselytized my tech choices in the past (“Everyone should use Signal”), one of my big fears about switching to Linux is that I’ll never shut up about it, and I’ll bore my friends.

Thank you for showing me that there is another way
