  • I just don't recommend using Neo Launcher if you have Android 14. Been having very annoying issues with it on Android 14, but not on any other Android version. Hopefully they'll release an update soon; the last update was 10/28/22.

    There is active development though.

  • I mean... These are what came up searching "Sodastream West Bank"

    "In October 2015, under growing pressure from activists of the Palestinian-led BDS movement, SodaStream closed its facility in Mishor Adumim and relocated it to the town of Lehavim in Israel proper."

    In the Code Pink page, if you click on Boycott Sodastream News, there is nothing newer than 2014.

    I don't believe so I googled before posting it to be sure and restricted my search to the last year.

    Your issue was restricting your search to last year, when there has been a lot of articles about this before then.

  • I prefer Steam. It has an official Linux client. I use Steam Remote Play quite often, either to play remotely myself, or have someone join my local co-op game.

    Valve also pays for Linux devs to help make Linux gaming better:

    Griffais says the company is also directly paying more than 100 open-source developers to work on the Proton compatibility layer, the Mesa graphics driver, and Vulkan, among other tasks like Steam for Linux and Chromebooks.

  • For my main computers, I've moved them all to Arch from Manjaro & EndeavorOS within the past 4 years. Though been meaning to try OpenSUSE Tumbleweed eventually. Haven't used OpenSUSE in over 10 years.

    I have a laptop running Proxmox for my servers, which is debian-based but uses a modified Ubuntu LTS kernel. Great to use to try out other distros in VMs as well.

  • Google maps is tough lol

    You could try to see if you'd like Magic Earth. It's proprietary, but has a good privacy policy, uses Open Street Maps, and has traffic data.

    Though if you're dependent on Google Maps for reviews and photos of places, then it's much harder to replace. Though I guess you could just use the website to look that up.

  • And it looks like Mastodon only even got full-text search very recently, like, last couple months.

    Also, this only works if the user opts in to being able to be searched/indexed. It makes it much harder to find content. If you're looking for more content from a hashtag, you'll only see people who knew to opt in

    On Twitter, anyone's content can be searched as long as they are not private. If you search a hashtag, you'll see every public post that uses that hashtag.

    Another annoying thing with Mastodon is that you have to go to the person's instance to fully check their profile. Annoying when you're using a Mastodon app, then it makes you open a web browser to go to that person's instance

  • Yeah, I also recommend URLCheck on Android. You make it your default web browser and you can manually or automatically have the query string removed. It can do other stuff such as resolving redirects before sending it to a web browser.

    Or you can use it to clean the URL before sharing it.

  • This version detects if you have Google Play Services when you first launch it. If you do, it'll use it, if not, it moves to websockets.

    If you installed GPS after launching Signal, you'll need to go to in and erase Signal's app data for it to reset again.
