Auto-updates are enabled on my system, but they're so very unpredictable. Just now had one running, I was thinking "why is my PC lagging" until you hear a symphony of USB connect/disconnect sounds and you realise, "ohh, it was auto-update".

So the question is, is there some kind of way to receive a notification when auto-update is running? Preferably with progressbar. Or maybe a way to get notifications when there are updates available? Thanks!

If your area isn't shown, you can use the "/release" command to show it in your local time zone!

With the 2020 release, I took the classic C172 to a local grass field and flew straight to my home. I think I'll make it a tradition and do the same with this version 😁

Hi all, I've had my FP5 for a few months now. I usually have my notifications on vibrate only, simply because I think even the lowest volume level for notifications is too loud.

So I'm wondering, is there a way to go below the lowest possible volume for notifications somehow, and preferably without rooting. Or should I try my luck making a feature request at Fairphone?

Stumbled on this program called Anytype a while ago, a note-taking application similar to Notion. It's surprisingly well polished and works for me.

They have a lot of aspects which seem like they'd appeal to more privacy-conscious people. Plus decentralization should appeal to Lemmings of course. But as far as I'm aware I've never heard anyone talk about this program. I was wondering if this is just due to obscurity, or if there are reasons it's not often recommended.

Hi all, looking for tutorials online is cool and all, but sometimes you just wanna sit down and read a physical book to understand something. So I was looking for suggestions on which books helped you the most, or which you've heard positive things about. Thanks!

Seeing some content from lemmy.world from ~1-2h ago. I checked the instance list on .world and it seems like we're in the federated list. Anyone else seeing content as usual again?

Hey all, been looking to curb you YouTube addiction. One easy step would be to get an alternative frontend which does not display shorts, and maybe even does not show suggested videos.

I've been looking at alternatives, but most seem to want you to import subscriptions from YouTube, and I assume that if you subscribe to a new channel from there, it will not show up on your YouTube account. Which is a functionality I would really like, as I also watch on desktop.

So does something like it exist? Or should I just install ReVanced? I've been kind of hesitant because installing from .APK is just so much easier...

This one is from 2015. Back when I overestimated how much fuel you need... 😅

Making full use of the new parts. Thing is quite manoeuvrable, plus with SAS it's even better. The rover itself is not all that special, just the new pod and some fuel tanks...

With a bit of a ridiculous rocket I got it to land on Minmus
