I has 64gb so I know your pain lol
Is it better to try and fail 10% of the time, or to not try at all and fail 100% of the time?
Play protect is an extremely useful feature that deters uneducated people from installing APKs because yes, the vast majority of times for normal folk, they are malware ridden. Google does try to prevent malware from getting on the play store, and they actually do a phenomenal job, but in the end, it's always going to be a cat and mouse game, and shits gonna slip through. It's still better then not trying at all.
I use fennec fdroid quite often, and a myriad of firefox forks like iceraven. But chromium based browsers are undoubtably the better experience for me, they kill my battery far less, they perform better, and have less bugs, especially when you go to utilize things like desktop mode, and ofc you also inherit many of the same issues that desktop browser has like not being able to properly render gradients https://degmods.com/ is an example of one such website.
and while many people may not care about features like webusb, firefox does lack said features too. This all makes it a very hard sell to replace chrome with firefox.
this is the correct answer. over bluetooth audio does not work.
Personally I use cromite since it integrated ABP with ublock filters so it is fine. If you do want a chromium based browser there are multiple out there. I know a good chunk of people uses misses browser, which while it does look scammy on the webpage, it is open source.
Are there any of them that are actually any decent however? Firefox mobile is fairly slow and a battery hog compared to chromium based browsers.
realistically, it's not like they will replace them with anything else. Chrome just doesn't have any actual competitors on android yet. Every promising alternative is more or less just a webview wrapper. Maybe one day we might see servo based browser for android take off. It does actually perform quite well on android for what it is currently.
yeah the main issue is a lot of times if you know where stuff is, you don't need to use it. so its a bit less then convenient.
I wish there were tools that when you searched a place you could import into oom, but then, that would be a violation.
Apple maps are better then google maps I found for UX. Sadly OSM based solutions (I do like organic maps) are often just far too lacking.
I have tried both flatpak as well as native and via wine
Sadly kdenlive is still extremely buggy and slow for me.
Even when using proxy clips which are an absolute necessity to get decent performance I still can't edit at decent performance. This is on a ryzen 2600 and arc a380 which has no problems with other tools even when editing 4k timelines so long as I use low impact codecs on the timeline.
The insane amount of crashes it has makes it really hard to use, I can get by using autosave but its more tedious then it is worth. I keep coming back and trying kdenlive, but I can just never use it. I hope it does good eventually, but for the forseeable future I dont see that happening.
Android 15 (LOS) on my LG G7 thinq 4gb ram, when I have a large number of accounts when syncing them android will run into oom issues even after tweaking oomd
Still using k9mail since fairemail causes me oom issues.
I still find myself looking for other emails tho since i need something that supports mailing list stuff better.
Ungoogled chromium. It's faster then firefox in nearly everything I test, doesn't have stupid issues like not rendering gradients properly.
I use firefox on my desktop for one single reason, and that's because there is literally nothing for chromium, that is remotely close to simple tab groups.
yes, because the rest of gnome is trash too
S76 already stated that maintaining the tiling extension for gnome was more effort then it was worth
Gnome upstream is notoriously hard to work with and will insult it's users and make up bogus reasons to reject perfectly good feature requests and bugreports.
Gnome is slow as balls. On low end hardware gnome bloody chugs compared to KDE let alone the "light weight" DEs.
Gnome is insanely slow to implement many features.
Gnome is hostile to working with upstream wayland protocols like window decore.
S76 want's their desktop to look and work a certain way, and making gnome look/work like that is difficult especially when upstream is not prepared to play ball.
Gnome devs have insulted S76 devs in public forums, have complained about S76 not funding gnome's A11y efforts despite S76 donating quite a lot to gnome over the course of 5 years, $100'000 https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/xwtns5/does_it_seem_like_gnome_wants_system_76s_cosmic/ira4e8o/
Personally, not needing to deal with gnome developers alone is a feature. Rust is just a tool which makes developing your own DE, compositor included, very easy.
It wasn't open source, but it also wasn't against TOS. All it really was is a custom environment that builds RPCS3 in.
I'm not sure if it was a termux like environment or a proot, but it was termux X11 fork.
