GCam requires the Google Photos app to be installed to load previews.

One way to fix this without installing it is to use GCamPhotosPreview. I use it myself and it works as expected

Their app is still in alpha though...

Bottom, I got used to having it down there from the Windows Phone days

I use postgres for my install and had a similar thing happen to me. I tried moving an org credential to a folder, which moved the folder to the org, and kicked all other credentials to "no folder".

Also, this support thread points out that folders aren't actually folders in the backend. Maybe batch moving credentials to an org breaks the connections to a folder?

Neo launcher + arctic icons dark

There's an open issue on the Github repo, but there hasn't been much progress

It has a compact mode with 2 columns that I find pretty neat. Otherwise, it's mostly the same as aegis with custom icons, groups, password and biometric unlock, etc.

Waterfox is already a thing

The last few characters were trash anyways

• Pixel 6 pro: my main day-to-day device, degoogled
• Pixel 4a: previous phone that I still keep around, mostly because I like the small form factor, also degoogled
• Galaxy Tab S6 Lite: for videos and movies, sometimes for doodling, lineageos
• ZenPad 8: previous tablet, for games

sorry, I meant piped instance (will still check out lemm.ee)

have you found a stable instance? Seems like all those I've tried are either throttled or periodically stop working for a few days

My first encounter with Linux was in 2008-9 when my dad bought a secondhand PC that came with PCLinuxOS. We mostly used it to play SuperTuxKart at the time.

Then a friend showed me Ubuntu (must have been 10.04 or something like that) when we started a website project together

I tried using Mint in college and ended up using it full-time by the end of the year. Then had a brief period of using Ubuntu (drive issues with Mint) before heading back to Windows when I bought a new PC for university.

I've been using Windows for study and work, and Linux for personal development when possible. I'd like to go back to Linux full-time, but I'm not sure which distro to use

Kaiteki aspires to be just that, but it's currently in alpha

Smaller homelab than average, but gets the work done

The pi would be fine for a lightweight music server (ex. gonic), maybe a lightweight photo app and pihole.

Fedi software generally requires a decent machine, so it's probably better to use something else; same for matrix.

I run a restic backup to a local backup server that syncs most of the data (except the movie collection because it's too big). I also keep compressed config/db backups on the live server.

I eventually want to add a cloud platform to the mix, but for now this setup works fine

According to the documentation, the allowed instances field is to restrict federation to specific instances.

I'd recommend leaving it empty and leaving federation open

how's kimai been for you?
