  • Just use dd. It's not that hard. You pass it 2 arguments: if= the file you want to flash, and of= the destination. If you're feeling fancy, pass in some status=progress. And don't forget to prepend it with sudo. That's it.

  • Not sure why we need an abstracted layer for F-Droid.

    Because the default F-Droid repository has some security issues: https://privsec.dev/posts/android/f-droid-security-issues/

    IzzyOnDroid avoids this by using prebuilt binaries that are properly signed by the actual developers, instead of building and signing apps themselves like F-Droid does

    It also doesn't have as strict inclusion criteria as the default F-Droid repo, so it is able to offer more apps

  • Don't recommend Voyager as a desktop client to new users. It just looks like a stretched mobile app, and the UX on desktop is piss poor. Just go with the default Lemmy UI, or Photon.

  • iTorrent is pretty nice, but you have to sideload it

  • The first step would probably be to try and revoke their tax exempt non profit status. But I'm confident the Signal Foundation would at that point just move to another jurisdiction. Maybe Canada, Switzerland or something like that.

  • I personally like Flood, never tried it with qBt, but I use it with ruTorrent all the time

    I also recommend qBitController if you want to access it from Android, or qBitControl if you're on iOS (has to be sideloaded from AltStore)

  • The annexation stuff might be nonsense, but nevertheless, previous US administrations always treated Canada as a partner. Trump treats them like an enemy, despite them having done absolutely nothing wrong. So I fully understand the Canadian people, why would they continue to give money to companies in a fascist dictatorship? The US under Trump are not much better than Russia, China, Iran, Israel, North Korea, etc.

  • I locked the previous thread, because it was kinda offtopic and far from a constructive discussion

    I'm not the one who locked this thread, but I can fully understand the decision, considering that there are 4 reports for this post alone

  • WPS Office is proprietary, Chinese spyware

    Check out OnlyOffice if you want a FOSS alternative to Microsoft Office

    But I agree, LaTeX is the best choice for academic writing, there are great apps like Overleaf and Typst that significantly simplify the process
