Why are there so many apps that could be websites? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Not on GrapheneOS :)

You can scrub shorts on mobile (might have to pause it first), but not desktop for some reason...

iOS 17.2 hints at Apple moving towards letting users sideload apps from outside the App Store in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

I second that suggestion, just install GrapheneOS. I switched from my iPhone to GOS over 6 months ago and haven't looked back. It syncs with nextcloud for everything and it's seamless!

Good server OS for Jellyfin in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[–] bigdog_00@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago (4 children)

Proxmox. I've been using it and deployed jellyfin in a container, they have a bunch of one-click deployments and it's great. Or you can just use a VM to group Docker containers together. Having a beautiful web interface is huge, Plus being able to access that interface from anywhere via WireGuard/Tailscale is great.

If you do choose to go down this route, there is a "no-nag proxmox" script somewhere, and it will disable some warnings and give you deeper customization options. Well worth a look!

Is there a newer model of desktop/laptop/motherboard which supports Coreboot? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I'm out of the loop, what is the advantage to coreboot?

Being flashbanged by my fingerprint sensor in c/android@lemmy.world

I wish Google would implement what Apple does, when you click the lock button five times to dial emergency services it will also disable biometrics. I don't think doing that disabled biometrics, only calls emergency services on Android. Even better, install "Duress" from F-Droid and you can set a decoy pin that resets the phone (or just reboots it)

I will say, my used Pixel 6 (GrapheneOS) has worked beautifully so far, with no hardware defects. If I had to complain, the speakers aren't particularly loud, but I've had no hardware issues with it. I agree with other people, it sounds like it could be a bad motherboard? It would be interesting if you could post a video of the issue

Slackware is so boring, it just sits there and *works*. in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[–] bigdog_00@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago (10 children)

I feel out of the loop, what's Slackware?

You hurd me. in c/linuxhumor@lemmy.ml

I feel like I'm missing out on what "HURD" is, I'm ready for the downvotes lol

I actually went to GrapheneOS from my iPhone, after deciding none of the other option were going to work for me. Bummer about the encryption, maybe that can be fixed?

How is SailfishOS? I was keeping an eye on UBPorts (Ubuntu Touch), occasionally installing that on my Pixel 3a, but it just wasn't there for me. Same for PostMarketOS, but the new GNOME Shell on mobile seems great. How is Android app support on SailfishOS?
