    1. About fucking time.
    2. RIP Tasker.

    João, Tasker's dev, already gets hit with enough random shit from Google because of how many permissions, accessibility items, and other things that Tasker requests.

    I've been subscribed to his Patreon for several years, and if you're a paying member, one of your perks is that João offers a free (yeah I know, "free") APK download not tied to Google Play services, with permanent licenses. A few months ago, I finally just said "fuck google in the ass for this", uninstalled the Play Store version from my phone, and got my Patreon Tasker APK.

    Also I just checked and apparently I have 53 licenses available...

  • I keep seeing people mentioning Syncthing with KeePass... I use both, but not together, between 3-4 different devices. I have a central Syncthing server to which all devices sync everything, but my KeePass database (keyfile & password protected is stored on Google Drive, in a G Suite Workspace account that I pay for. The keyfile is stored individually on each device that needs it, with a printed out copy (with instructions!) as a backup.

    Would my keypass database survive Syncthing the way I have it setup?

  • Apple has $50B+ in literal cash. Epic's entire revenue is under $7B/yr. Apple can afford to run Epic for decades on their cash reserves alone without impacting their bottom line.

    That's why it took 4 years. I'm surprised Apple didn't bury them.

  • I love the command line. A terminal window is always open on whatever computer I'm using at the moment, even when I was running Windows.

    But I also like having a dashboard to see what's going on, all right in front of me. I have ADHD, and if I can't see it, then I will forget it exists. I use command line to handle more granular tasks, and have various UIs to help me handle other things, like Proxmox (obvious), Dockge (docker stacks), OMV (NAS), Cockpit (all of my computers have this, really good for remote control), and a few other things I'm forgetting.

  • OP also said they're willing to learn the terminal:

    I would like to find an OS that is easier to setup with less of a neccesity for the command line (I would still like to learn how to use it though, I don't want to get rid of it entirely!).

    They're essentially asking to start with a working and well-known platform that any Joe Regular can use. In car terms, this would be akin to the Chevy 350 V8. Pretty much every car guy knows that engine and how to make it run well without needing to rebuild the entire thing right off the bat.
