have been using FairEmail and it works really well. I have to admit it is a very verbose client which offers a vers large number of options and settings even as you just want to send an email (there's a popup with how you want to send it) but it has never failed me and has a very good support for updates and guide for setting it up. It's free but if you like it I highly recommend to support the developer who is fully committed to it (not personally related to the project in any way). I would be very upset if this project were to die and I had to find another client.

I'm a big fan and enjoy it but there's a few things I don't like. That said, K9-mail is currently missing simple features like always remember for simply showing images from this sender and that's annoying. But I'm really looking forward to synchronicity between clients, which Thunderbird will have out the box and FairEmail doesn't.

[-] Pantherina@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Not to forget OpenKeyChain is not developed anymore and cant generate keys! So they have to take that all up too!

The developer for Moshidon (for Mastodon) is rebuilding the app based on the newest official app. Really looking forward to it because the official app lacks a lot of features

[-] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf 4 points 1 year ago

Lucas is brilliant

[-] zettajon@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

My favorite way to use Mastodon. The share feature that resolves the fediverse links is so handy (the small option on the right of the popup after sharing to Moshidon). The official app's only share option is to post the link, which I would not be doing 99% of the time.

2004scape is an open source remake of RuneScape as it was in 2004: https://github.com/2004scape

[-] Sproux@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Woah how did i not hear about this that's amazing.

[-] GerryMandering@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

It kind of works with gamescope already

GNOME 45 Mainly because of libadwaita 1.4 being released with its newfangled widgets

Cassia - new app from Skyline devs for running Windows games on Android

Element X - complete rewrite of the Element messenger with new backend, design and feature

[-] carzian@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I'd really like wikijs 3.0 to release. The current version is almost good, but 20 minutes into using it I found it missing a lot of features I was hoping for.

[-] doomkernel@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

I've been patiently waiting for the release of version 3

[-] csolisr@communities.azkware.net 5 points 1 year ago

The upcoming version of YunoHost for Debian Bookworm. Mostly because the latest old-stable version, Bullseye, is already deprecated for several apps such as Lemmy itself. I'm seriously considering to move to an all-Docker setup, but have no idea of how to handle automated certificate updates.

[-] Swimmerman96@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

I assume you mean SSL/TLS certificates for internet accessable applications? I use a reverse proxy called Caddy in a Docker container, which handles requests from the internet and directs them to the proper docker container based on the subdomain. It also handles my certificates automatically, requesting a new Let'sEncrypt cert just before the old one expires using a community made plugin.

[-] csolisr@communities.azkware.net 1 points 1 year ago

Correct, I'm talking about Let's Encrypt certificates - specifically, finding a way to port my existing private keys out of YunoHost and into said Caddy/Docker setup while keeping the monthly automated renewal. Same goes for all my ActivityPub apps - Pleroma/Akkoma, Lemmy, PeerTube - which will make servers that follow me freak out if I suddenly change keys by reinstalling from scratch.

[-] Nyoelle@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

I am always looking forward to new KOReader releases :D

[-] ExceptionalCow@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

Hopefully Connect app on Android (Lemmy client). Also, if it ever happens, Redreader for Lemmy.

[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Have I missed something? I'm writing this comment using Connect for Lemmy

[-] lckdscl@whiskers.bim.boats 7 points 1 year ago

Connect isn't FOSS, as far as I know

[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

So, there's another Connect out there for something else? Or the poster above wants the maker of Connect for Lemmy to release their source code?

[-] willya@lemmyf.uk 5 points 1 year ago

FOSS means free and open-source software…

[-] ExceptionalCow@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Exactly. The developer might open the source according to some reports in the past.

[-] ExceptionalCow@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

The developer of Connect said they might release it as FOSS app one day. That'll be the day I reinstall it. For now I'm using Jerboa.

[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Ah ok, now I understand ... though it's not something that I'd get excited about I'm glad the idea has you feeling enthusiastic :-)

[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

I just found Haiku R1 Beta 4 exists yesterday, and today read that it has an X11 API interpreter, so I'm going to give it a try over the weekend by chucking an old HDD in my laptop and running it natively ... if it recognises my old laptop's WiFi I'll try it on a longer term basis :-)

[-] Nyoelle@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

It is comfy to see Haiku development

Though, I will consider actually running Haiku, when quicklisp is working =w=

[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Apparently it already has the stuff I use, so full steam ahead for me! :-)

[-] Nyoelle@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago
[-] LucyLastic@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks! So far it's really really good and everything works (the WM is so nice), except I can't use HDMI from my laptop which might be a show stopper :-/

[-] jcg@halubilo.social 5 points 1 year ago

NextCloud Text is going to have websocket support soon. Should make it run significantly better.

[-] Pantherina@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

Kde 6: a great dude fixed fractional scaling, UI cleanup, great internet popup, new design, unified code, spectacle working again

Gimp 3.0: maybe it gets even better?

IEM ambisonics plugin Flatpak: Best and only GUI ambisonics Linux plugin, I have no idea how to use all this but really want to do binaural surround sound stuff. And I dont want to switch to debian lol

Cosmic desktop maybe?

Fedora 39 getting even better, Kinoite with automatic updates

[-] MangoKangaroo@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

OBS 30 (if it releases this year.) Give me that AV1 encoding on my A770 baybee

[-] qwerty@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Version 0.34 of unstoppable wallet by horizontal systems. It will add chain switching to walletConnect for dapps that support it.

[-] Satan@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I don't have an apple computer, but the Asahi Linux project has made me consider it. I'm amazed by all the reverse engineering stuff they've done.

Asahi Linux is a project and community with the goal of porting Linux to Apple Silicon Macs, starting with the 2020 M1 Mac Mini, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro.
