Parental controls? (lemm.ee)

Hi all,

I'm getting a pc for my daughter. I'll install Fedora KDE Spin. I'm looking for a parental control solution that also integrates with her Android phone. I'm currently using Google's Family Link which while not great it offers enough. I'd be happy to move to any other solution that can count both device's usage screen time as one so she doesn't use up her phone and then move to the PC.

Any cool recommendations?

The goal of ActivityWatch is simple: Enable the collection of as much valuable lifedata as possible without compromising user privacy.

We've worked towards this goal by creating an application for safe storage of the data on the user's local machine and as well as a set of watchers which record data such as:

Currently active application and the title of its window Currently active browser tab and its title and URL Keyboard and mouse activity, to detect if you are AFK ("away from keyboard") or not

It is up to you as user to collect as much as you want, or as little as you want (and we hope some of you will help write watchers so we can collect more).

Well, they linked to the releases page instead of the main page for the project, for one.

I also linked to the readme as well.. If you click on "ActivityWatch".

I need to change my default colors then, because it was way too easy to miss that first link. That's on me.

My bad.. I should make it all text with hyperlinks instead. --> fixed

I appreciate it, but genuinely, the best thing about Lemmy is being in control of how you view your own feed, and so (especially considering I'm fucking red-green colorblind lol) it really is my responsibility to make it readable for myself. Thanks for being a good fellow, regardless.

Mbin also does have a lot of theme options, layout settings and different colored themes.

Hmm, I couldn't find that anywhere. Thanks again.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
