I tried osmand~ from f droid (which is essentially the paid version) and for browsing it works great. Navigation was pretty bad however. I had a lot of issue where when I click to find a route to an address it would get stuck and never route. Also in my testing, it would take you some pretty bizarre routes where I couldn’t trust it. I am unfortunately back to Google maps that I dowloaded through the aurorastore using as anonymously as I can without any Google account on my device.

Yep I’m very impressed with syncthing. I just started using it a few weeks ago.

What’s amusing is I am purposely not paying for bitwarden because of the check against darkweb leaks or whatever type feature when you pay. That’s seems like an anti privacy thing. I understand it’s a good idea albeit seems to expose a lot of information about you. I would like to do vaultwarden but don’t think I can trust self hosting myself without paying monthly for a vps which I don’t want to do. Home Internet hosting seems to unreliable to me for something that important.

Just random thoughts of mine here.

Fwiw, pop!_os doesn’t have snapd by default but has a Ubuntu feel. Flatpak support is by default with their app store.

I’m in the honeymoon stage but I’ve left win 11 behind earlier this week. Jump full into it I am loving pop_os… the tiling feature is a refreshing thing I didn’t know I needed. I’m hooked to it already. Flatpak is something else new for me that I’m really enjoying the thought of. Really like all the seamlessness of the virtual desktops too. Pop calls them workspaces. I can send windows to another workspace. Keep selectef ones on all workspaces. I’m a devops that has been using wsl for anything I needed Linux locally for since it came out. Now that I know how to interact with Linux and my remaining Windows infrastructure at work (primarily Ad) I am full into it. The only game I’ve spun up on it so far was cyberpunk 2077 and it runs great on it. Got Plex going, virtual machines, docker/podman, the foss possibilities are awesome. Really enjoying freetube right now too.

Out of Egypt is fire.

Best thing I’ve seen all morning.

Amazing work.

I do aks. I can’t say love is the right word for it. Lol
