Wanted something to open and search my markdown cheatsheets and I couldn't find anything with all of the features that I wanted so I made bleamd, a powerful standalone Markdown renderer for the terminal with advanced search, hyperlink support, and extensive customization options.

I'm new to open source development, but if you like the app please consider sponsoring me or giving me a star on github. Up votes are also appreciated. I'm a moderator on Ask Ubuntu, and an advocate for privacy, security, and free and open source software. Interested? Check out my other repos: https://github.com/guttermonk

Jambi’s mission is to transcribe audio to your clipboard, as quickly and accurately as possible, while staying privacy-focused and open-source.

Jambi aims to help computer users with disabilities, such as vision or physical impairments, by providing real-time transcription of their speech. It’s also a great tool for anyone who wants to transcribe audio quickly and easily.

This is the alpha release and the project is still in early development. Currently looking for feedback and contributors. If you are a developer, you can contribute to the project by submitting pull requests or reporting issues.

If you like the project, please show your support by leaving a star. Thanks! https://github.com/guttermonk/jambi

Preferably something that doesn't require login or registration. An online app would work too, I suppose.

Well bite my shiny metal ass - how is there no wikipedia entry for "meh key"? They have alt key, control key, and even super key, but no meh key. I'm curious if the meh key came from a specific keyboard or what the origins are.

According to this issue, it looks like there are no plans, understandably, for making a version/fork of nsxiv but with native Wayland support.

Any recommendations for a simple image viewer in Hyprland?

I noticed the AppOutlet repo has been archived, but I really liked the idea of one store to rule them all (I.e. snaps, appimages, flatpaks, etc. in one place).

Any current recommendations for an alternative?

Looking for a music player that will do a good job of loading album art. It all looks great in PlayerPro, but I tried Auxio and Aplayer but they didn't do a great job of pulling in the album art. Tracks were also incorrectly lumped together with mixed albums/artists.

Any recommendations?

Looking for a FOSS way to backup my encrypted Blueray disks so I can stream them with Jellyfin and not worry about the disks getting scratched.

Much like the linked post, I hope this thread serves as a snapshot or "state of the industry" as of April 2024.

Any privacy concerns with using the futo-whisper open source voice library?

I was able to add their apk repo to Droidify, but am hesitant to install Futo Voice Input. Although it looks like it integrates nicely with OpenBoard.

The other option is to install Sayboard, which works with the native Graphene keyboard. Although OpenBoard with Futo Voice looks like a more streamlined experience, IMHO.

Any thoughts on privacy here?

Any recommendations for a ZigBee RGB Lightbulb w/o 3rd party app - at least not a closed source app.

I heard the Phillips Hue works well but I'd like to be able to install and configure the bulbs with Home Assistant (or another open source app at a minimum). Any suggestions?

I have a Nvidia TitanX in my HTPC, which is known for its high heat output, and it keeps overheating when I play 3D games. The case has two intake fans on one side and two exhaust fans on the other, but lacks ventilation on the top panel. I'm tired of the random shutdowns during game play and was wondering if anyone had any recommemdations for a more efficient GPU.

Running Windows 10.

Would really love a launcher that can format icon shapes so that they're all uniform in shape, like Nova Launcher ...but open source.
