User Notes

Reply in thread

Sorry for the confusion. Im not sure if users actually use the local only "user tags" in summit, for me at least it would be best to just replace those with the notes that are synced with the servers.

Im actually not sure what "user tags" are on lemmy or piefed only saw that term used in summit.

EDIT: Thank you for putting it up on the roadmap :)

I believe its these endpoints here, is it not?

PieFed

Lemmy

Just checked with Photon and it also sends it against this endpoint.

curl 'https://piefed.social/api/alpha/user/note' \
  -X POST
  --data-raw '{"person_id":1080,"note":"summiteer"}'

My Nokia 7110 is online

This is really cool! Thank you for providing the link to the guide. I have my old Sony Ericsson T310 laying around and just checked it also has WAP! (Version 2 though I am not sure if this is a problem) This is really enticing to give it a try, but I should know better and focus on my current projects :(

A question for GNOME/KDE users

Reply in thread

I wanna say yes, but it really does not make a whole lot of sense.

GNOME is less space efficient which on a smaller display is crucial. It does have better touchscreen support in case your laptop has that (and the bigger margins do come in handy here). But i know it might sound weird but GNOME fits the vibe of a laptop better. No surprise it gets often compared to macOS and KDE being the Windows equivalent. Its just less serious... just as a laptop is. Not that you don't get shit done on there, its just a bit more cozy :)

I have an eye on https://sinty.dev/ as well though I think there is already a alpha out, but I have done enough distro/de hoping this and last year :) From what I can tell its GNOME but with less margins. The design is still very libadwaita like which makes modern GNOME apps not look out of place. It is from the same developer that did Vanilla OS and Bottles so this won't be abandoned too quickly. In the age of vibe coded and quickly forgotten garbage you can't be too sure about that.

These wonderful people are behind LibreOffice, offering a free alternative to Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Remarkably, most of them contribute on a completely unpaid volunteer basis

Just the other day I was reading their RSS feed where they often post pictures of their meetups and thought the same thing! Even thought about posting something like this myself.

Maybe also because just before that I was using an unconfigured edge browser with all the tabloid media on the new tab still activated. Its full with all the latest drama and gossip from celebrities and I was like "who TF cares?!?!?". This is so much better, just humans being really cool!

GrapheneOS: The initial devices with GrapheneOS support should be available in 2027. The initial devices will be flagships so they'll be higher end hardware than Pixels at a higher price.

Totally with you. For me a perfect phone consists of:

  • Big Ass Battery (BAB) (Also make it changeable, so i can bring one with me and "charge" it in a second)
  • Headphone Jack
  • USB-C (Obviously)
  • 60Hz Display (Once you look at 120Hz you can never go back so I dont want to, also it drains battery)
  • microSD-Card (You can change, maybe with support to up to 1 TB just for funsies)
  • 4G (It is more than enough. 5G also drains your battery)
  • One Camera (Honestly still not over how goofy those 2+ camera sets look, they are even on cheaper phones nowadays)
  • Latest Security Patches
  • Normal sized and light (Have to be able to reach the top with one hand.)

I just want phones to last longer than a day again :(

A question for GNOME/KDE users

KDE is too inconsistent when it comes to margins and font sizes. I still have it installed on my Desktop PC which ever so often use to see how things are going.

My daily driver (laptop) runs GNOME though. I do not like the slightly too large margins and the flat design (old skeuomorphism icons was peak). It is consistent and despite what everyone says thanks to Extensions customisable enough. Here is my extension list:

  • ArcMenu
  • Dash to Panel
  • Grand theft Focus
  • Gtk4 Desktop Icons NG
  • Rounded Window Corners Reborn

and of course:

  • Activate Linux

It is really cozy and I like it very much. :)
