I have been investigating if there is a community dedicated to Photon (a great Lemmy front-end) that doesn't seem to have an exclusive option to search for communities, does anyone know if there is an exclusive community for Photon (or Lemmy front-ends in general)?

I really want to try Filen as my main cloud provider but my main brake point is that the app doesn't automatically upload my images in the background. I'm not sure if this is because I'm on the free plan or because of my device, has anyone had better luck with the automatic image upload in the background?

Thoughts about Posteo? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 6 months ago by Xirup@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

I've thinking about ditching my Protonmail email address with Posteo since I need IMAP support (because I hate using the Protonmail app) and honestly paying for Proton Mail Plus didn't worth the money because they are pushing me to buy the Protonmail Unlimited but I don't need all those capabilities nor would I use them and the best alternative I've found is Posteo and honestly I like it, I even got CalDAV support which I didn't have in Protonmail, but personally I don't know anybody who use Posteo, so I post this here.

I've thinking about purchasing Proton Mail Plus only and just only to have IMAP support, but I've looked all the features that the Proton Unlimited Plan have, and honestly I believe it's worth, but I hate having all the eggs in the same basket.

The features I believe worth the most are the 500GB storage, IMAP support, all the VPN servers with P2P and unlimited SimpleLogin aliases, but when I ask if it is worth the price I mean, the majority of those features I can have them having individually with others services and even at lower price.

I just saw in the admin Mastodon account that you need to clear your cookies, and that's it, which actually worked for me. I'm not sure why.

I have been an active user of different Lemmy.ml communities for a long time but for personal reasons I want to migrate from Dbzer0 to Yiffit, unfortunately to my surprise Lemmy.ml stopped federating with Yiffit a few months ago and honestly it saddens me because there are communities like c/linux, c/privacy, c/firefox, c/fdroid that are extremely useful and I love to participate in them.

Is there any chance that Yiffit will be federated again? And why was it defederated from Lemmy.ml?

The admin of Yiffit is an incredibly nice person and I'm sure he will want to come to collaborate to be able to federate again with Lemmy.ml. As a user I find it a little unfair not to be able to participate in these communities from this instance but I understand and respect that each instance has its own policies and decisions.

I have been using Linux for about 5 years and although I don't consider that I know much, I know enough to fix my own problems and that's usually enough for me.

Since Plasma 6 was announced I wanted to test something other than XFCE, Gnome or Plasma (or any DE) so I give it a try with ArcoLinuxD i3wm and is increible the amount of things I learn the 'hard way' because there was no GUI to do the things I want to do, or maybe I was too lazy to do it with the terminal since there is always the 'easy way'.

Things that might be very easy for a lot of people, but I never take the time to learn, like mounting drives, running programs from startup, setting environment variables, creating desktop entries, and a lot of other things I didn't even remember. I even learned to use things that used to give me a headache just looking at it, like Vim, xdg, the Archwiki (that is super useful) and the manpages.

It's ironic because something that started as an experiment is now my daily drive, and now that Plasma 6 has been released, I don't want to leave i3 behind.

For a moment I think this was a Linux community talking about X.Org.

When you use Alt+Number you automatically switch to the tab that is assigned that number, but when you have more than 9 tabs Alt+9 just switches to the last tab instead of opening tab number 9, and you can't go beyond tab number 9 either, is there any way to go to tabs beyond 9 with Alt+Number?

Maybe I'm forgetting something, but according to something I read, per week a user can get up to 10 random drops but I've been playing for almost 10 hours and I haven't got even one, why?

I recently started using Violentmonkey and there are hundreds of absolutely great scripts like some that help you go straight to the download link instead of shorteners (very common on pirate sites), and there are also some scripts for downloading music from Spotify (I guess using Youtube), but I hardly know any more, anyone know of some scripts for general use or useful for pirating?

I wish to change the default Nautilus file dialog that Firefox uses, to Dolphin (my main file manager) but I cannot find any solution. Every single time I download an image, Nautilus is opened instead of Dolphin.

I tried adding GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to my env variables, and It didn't work, then I tried changing mimetype and also did not work, I also tried modifying the xdg-portal (sorry if I'm wrong) to use xdg-desktop-portal-kde instead, but I cannot accomplish this since I didn't understand at all the Arch wiki and IIRC some files aren't exactly where the Arch wiki was pointing them.

As a last attempt, I open about:config in Firefox and search for widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal and set it to True, and still I keep having that old Nautilus as my file picker in Firefox, and this last thing usually worked well for me in Plasma.

Edit: I just restarted my pc and now randomly seems that Dolphin it's the file dialog for Firefox, I don't have a single clue how this happen.

I've been using Linux for the past 5 years, and recently I change from DE to WM (i3) which change it my whole workflow. Now I use a lot more the command line to do even simple things.

Recently I note that some relatives called me 'hacker' and I find that kinda funny, may be because I'm so accustomed to the terminal and to i3 that I don't notice that "it looks like a hacker thing".

One more reason to switch to Linux! (It can't run Valorant)

I personally don't use Youtube (I prefer using Libredirect with Piped/Invidious) but I tried Youtube on Firefox with UBlock and I didn't have any problem. This might sound dumb but what filters do you use on UBlock? I have read that turning on some filters would help with this but I'm not sure.

[-] Xirup@lemmy.dbzer0.com 43 points 11 months ago

My migration to Firefox and starting to use uBlock, definitely the best decisions I've made.

Vanced is dead, but ReVanced isn’t.

PollyMC is a Prism Launcher fork but with "offline mode" and works perfectly on my opinion. I recommend downloading the flatpak version as the appimage asks you for certain versions of Java that are easy to install but sometimes gets a little complicated.

And yes, Micro$hit can eat shit. I personally bought Minecraft but on the day I was forced to migrate my Mojang account to a Micro$oft account with the threat that "If I don't do it I'll lose access to my game" I delete my Mojang account and use PollyMC since.

Drama aside, Skidrow really does "cracks"? I thought they were only repackers.

Voksi, you fokkin prick, DRM exists for a reason in this world, it protects legitimate interests of actual hard working people, that are entitled to get a decent income from their hard effort!!!!

I'm not on any "side" but wut? We are talking about a repacker to a cracker, I think they can be considered equally "guilty" in the sense of "making hard-working people lose money" by distributing the games themselves. And what the hell, I'm pretty sure that's not the reason DRM exists, and if it is, it's to secure the income of companies, not their workers.

I'll be honest, the only way to listen to music privately is to download it. (And using an opensource music player)

There are Github repositories with CLI programs to download complete Spotify playlists with Youtube and also download their metadata.

In case anyone is interested in an alternative, I personally use LanguageTool because it is open source and works very well.
