I'm into privacy, but I really enjoy my pixel as it is too. The main concern is my Dexcom continuous blood glucose monitor. It gives annoying warnings about not being tested with the current os version every time I update. I don't even use betas.

That is tempting, especially if I knew I wouldn't lose some picky software. I think I'm in a reasonable state of balance between Google and privacy at the moment.

 

I want some of these features without blocking installs from F-Droid

It is my default launcher too but it requires a different mindset if you're used to arranging icons. You spend more time choosing wallpaper instead of arranging things. Just, tag your apps and search for them. It's much better than it sounds. And any widgets you want just scroll up from the bottom.

I already tried F5 for volume up instead of the XF86VolumeUp or whatever it already had there. I'll have to check out wev. Is that a terminal command or an app from the Apps menu?

I'll look when I'm back home.

What's the shortcut for function keys?

I use Firefox with Phoenix on the desktop so the standard profile is just a little less strict than librewolf and the hardened profile is a little more strict. https://github.com/celenityy/Phoenix

I was using (and really liked) Librewolf until I heard that they were having trouble keeping up with Firefox updates. Now I'm using the Phonenix configurations for Firefox and keeping the FF updates separate from the privacy configuration settings. Avoiding forks lets you get the best of both worlds.

I'm on mastodon.social and a search for .threads.net accounts shows many pages. I follow some that I couldn't find on mastodon otherwise.

I auto delete all history after 28 days but I keep tabs open for sites like this that I'm logged into so those cookies aren't deleted because the history is never that old

Thank you for the reply. What is the key sym for a function key? I have tried F5 for example but that wasn't right.

[–] Delusion6903@discuss.online 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I've been on mastodon for 8 years and it's ok but it can't catch the masses. It has been paralyzed from advancing by a vocal minority.

It shouldn't take 6 years to get search and quote posts. They also need optional algorithmic feeds.

 

All I want is to take my F5 key and assign it to the media key for volume down. BIOS will not do this. Gnome lets me do it.

When I try to hit F5 the key does nothing in the input field.

 

I share screenshots with the wife every day but somehow Tusky has grabbed the share sheet target, and always wants me to share to a mastodon account I rarely use and I can't seem to replace it with my usual Signal target for my wife. Ideas?

 

In Gnome, I was able to make my media keys work without hitting fn by reassigning them. I honestly don't even remember how I did it.

Is there a way to do this in Cosmic yet?

 

Has anyone else received stuff like this?

 

I know it's early yet, but right now my laptop screen stays awake all day while I listen to streaming music. Is there no way to return to the login screen and blank that screen after a certain period of time?

 

Does fennec get around this?

 

Same question: Can you follow Lemmy communities from PieFed?

 

Until recently, when I took a screenshot with my #pixel it showed a direct share target which was usually the most recent person I shared to. Now, it's got no one. How do I fix that?
