  • The hardware is pretty good. Not a fan of Exynos tho.

    The software feels really bloated. I usually have LineageOS on it instead. Compared to One UI, the Pixel-like UI feels very clean, and the OS feels very lightweight.

    If it was impossible to have something less-bloated, I'd probably switch phone to a cleaner Android.

  • Would you mind sharing the picture?

    It's really nice :)

  • I forgot to mention that both of them are open-source.

  • Material Files is fantastic.

    FOSS (free and open-source), and supports root, if you need it.

    Amaze is amazing (I'm sorry, it was stronger than me) too.

  • There was that Amazon incident, but now I don't think you should be worried about that. If you have other reason to move off, like snaps and other reasons, that's a different story.

    Anyway, Linux Mint is great, and based of Ubuntu. You have LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition), that based on, you guessed it, Debian, if you don't want Ubuntu-based distro.

    Fedora is also great, pretty similar to CentOS, and have a big community.

    GL.

  • Telemetry, supposed to be only sending data that would benefit the user, by helping the developers to understand what the users really need.

    Microsoft and Apple abused that term and it became just 'data collection'. FOSS telemetry shouldn't, and usually - hopefully - wouldn't collect unnecessary data, to sell it back as adverts.

    So if you trust

    <project-name>

    , I don't see why not to enable it. It just helps the devs, and you too, at the end.

  • BTW, can share the Aggretsuko template?

  • I'm not sure that's the problem you're having, but worth a shot.

    You have two 'types' of downloads on Firefox.

    There is the 'Files and Applications' section, and right below it, you have another option for 'other files'.

    Try to change the second option to 'Ask whether to open or save files'.

    No idea about Windows right now, but on Linux (on 2 distros) both of the options work for me. Both on Firefox itself, and on a fork called Librewolf.

  • I use NerdOS BTW.

    (That's fantastic, I absolutely love it.)

  • The idea of those window managers is to 'skip' having to use desktop environment.

    On WM you do stuff differently. Mostly configured on your WM config. You don't really need to use DE.

  • Honestly, I watched Barakamon, and have really (like, really) liked it. I was thinking a lot about watching Handa-kun, but every time I read the summary, I get this feeling it has a completely different vibe :/

  • (I don't want drives to to be auto-mounted.)

  • Signal considered the best between those 3 apps.

    • Signal have E2EE. Facebook decided to copy the idea to Whatsapp. AFAIK, attackers have always gained access only by other methods.
    • Telegram created their own protocol, MTProto. E2E is only enabled on private chats. By default private chat exist only on the device they were created on. So a lot of people don't really use them.

    So, in terms of encryption alone, Signal/Whatapp are safer.

    I don't know about you, but for me, the last company I'll trust with my information is Facebook.

    So if you can, use Signal.

    If not, decide who you trust more. Telegram or Facebook.

  • Also, you can try to launch it in troubleshooting mode. It disables extensions and custom settings.

  • Have you tried to change your user-agent?

    You can do it with Chameleon.

  • Did you try to change your user-agent?

    You can do it with Chameleon.
