Accrescent is in early alpha, but it looks like it's on its way to be a great, modern app store.
There's been an issue about this on lemmyverse's Github for about a month, link here. It seems like there's an issue where lemmy.world is responding incorrectly when it is scanned for communities, and since it hasn't been fixed lemmyverse hasn't been scanning lemmy.world.
I found the My Deep Guide youtube channel to be a really good source of reviews when I was choosing an eink tablet, here's a link to his 2022 roundup.
I went with a Supernote A5X around 2.5 years ago. My usecase was for college to take lecture notes and to read academic papers/epubs. I went with the Supernote over the reMarkable for the software support: I really like the concept of reMarkable's Linux-based OS and being able to use community mods, but it felt like I would need the mods to have all the features I wanted, while the Supernote wouldn't allow for modification but would have everything I wanted built in. I've been satisfied with the writing and reading experience, customer support is responsive via email and Reddit, and OS updates have been adding new features without a subscription.
Jerboa does maintain a list of instances for you to select how to open in the app - list here and see my other comment on how to pick the instances you want.
The list can be updated with this generation script, it seems to get all the Lemmy instances with at least 50 users from fediverse.observer.
Disclaimer: I've only tried this with my home instance and it's worked fine, I think I ran into issues with links from other instance, but try it out and see if it works now!
If you hold down on the app and click on "app info", then go to "open by default", you can select which websites should open in the jerboa app:
It's worked perfectly for me with links from my home instance.
(This "Open by Default" feature is very useful to know about for unofficial frontends like squawker, because if it isn't an official app this setting is how you choose it to be the default app.)
Kbin uses /m/ (for magazine), but Lemmy uses /c/ (I believe for community). So the url you want is https://lemm.ee/c/historyartifacts@kbin.social
(And to get a link that will work on any instance, not just lemm.ee, using !historyartifacts@kbin.social as a link should work and is generally preferred)
Starting with Android 12 (and maybe earlier, I think it may be a part of a Google Play update?), you can delete your advertising ID in settings - definitely worth doing!
There's a github issue about this if you want to add anything to it, this separate issue also has some details about the sanitation. The issue seems to have been introduced in v0.18.3.
Edit: fixed :)
Hi! Incredibly small note - it looks like the community name has a trailing space (it seems like it's "Android ", with a space after the d), so it looks a bit goofy on non-lemmy.world instances with a space before the @:
I don't believe Squabbles is federated/using ActivityPub, so you can't connect to it through Lemmy. We can connect to Lemmy instances, as well as some other ActivityPub communities (most notably Kbin and Mastadon instances), but Squabbles is not using ActivityPub, it's an entirely separate social media.
pdfcrop(commonly included with LaTeX) for cropping margins - it cuts the pdf down to its contents then adds a margin of your choosing, extremely useful for forcing academic papers to have consistent margins,pdfcrop --margins 72 *pdf here*will create a document with a ~1in margin all around (it uses bp as its units)vipsfor resizing/converting images - it's a bit faster and lighter than imagemagick in my experience, although the main reason I use it instead of imagemagick is just because I like playing around with stuff I haven't used before :) It has an officially supported python binding too

Just a note that the flatpak is not made by the Signal Foundation, it is maintained unofficially by the community. See the last sentence on the app description on Flathub:
There's a discussion about the community flatpak's trustworthiness on their repo here and here, a feature request for the Signal Foundation to have an official distro-agnostic release here, but for now the only official Linux release of Signal is for Debian-based distributions.
