Have you tried Material Files (it’s on fdroid)? It’s genuinely great and it supports different remote protocols, although I haven’t personally tried this feature.

Can you not try them on? You did mention a local climbing shop after all… I would not recommend buying shoes without having tried them on, much less to a beginner.

I don’t know about “simple”, but it’s very good. Been a happy user for many years

Looks nice, but please be careful. Stacking big glass containers like this seems like asking for trouble…

Ich mag die Suderthreads und fände es schade wenn damit aufgehört wird. Kann aber verstehen dass es öd ist wenn niemand mitmacht.

Zum Thema: Im Büro wird seit heute gebohrt und gehämmert, das ist so laut ich kann mich nicht konzertieren 🙄

What an amazing project. I used to love Oblivion so much, but sadly the gameplay hasn’t aged very well…

Wunderground was great before they got acquired by IBM

I once made a batch of mead using literally bread yeast and it ate up all the sugars finishing at around 16% ABV. It didn’t taste good though …

I totally get where you’re coming from and if there was a lean and stable app for files, calendar, contacts and tasks I would be very happy to check it out. But last time I searched there wasn’t anything I would trust.

Also, it looks like roundcube is now part of nextcloud 🤷

Fair enough, I guess, but what if I wanna selfhost?

This is great news! 👏

Honest question… Is there a better alternative?

It really isn’t. While the requirements are less strict than for the main repo, there is a review process to add a new app and I think they also have some automated checks. Additionally, Izzy (the maintainer of izzyondroid) is (was?) a member of the fdroid team.

Does this mean that every app there is legitimate? Of course not, but the same can be said about any other app store/repository.

Unlike Osmand itself, the Osmand Tracker app is not open-source. While that’s not a quality the OP asked for, I think it is important to note in this context.

Also, I found that Osmand Tracker drains your battery like crazy, but ymmv.

That’s cool… but what really pissed me off about the default camera app on the FP4, is that the “show in gallery” feature is completely broken if you disable Google photos.

EDIT: Holy shit, they fixed it. I can’t believe it!

Yes it does, but it is not part of nextcloud itself, they require you to host a collabora CODE server. It works quite well but it’s a bit of a hassle to set up

I think what you’re referring to is the Mozilla UnifiedNLP backend, which is also affected by the removal of UnifiedNLP.

I don’t think there is another way to offer this API to the system.

Apps could of course use the Mozilla location services directly, but that requires some sensitive permissions most apps would not need otherwise.

I don’t disagree with you but I think these kinds of posts are just the result of mastodon federating with Lemmy. That would explain the very different style of post. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

You can actually try kagi for free. 100 searches/month should be enough for you to decide if it’s worth the money to you.

The website works for me and seems legit (looks like a regular uni website…). It reads:

JAP (called JonDo in the scope of the commercial JonDonym anonymous proxy servers - AN.ON remains free of charge) makes it possible to surf the internet anonymously and unobservably.

Without Anonymization, every computer in the internet communicates using a traceable Address. That means:

• the website visited,
• the internet service provider (ISP),
• and any eavesdropper on the internet connection

can determine which websites the user of a specific computer visits. Even the information which the user calls up can be intercepted and seen if encryption is not used. JAP uses a single static address which is shared by many JAP users. That way neither the visited website, nor an eavesdropper can determine which user visited which website. How it works

Instead of connecting directly to a webserver, users take a detour, connecting with encryption through several intermediaries, so-called Mixes. JAP uses a predetermined sequence for the mixes. Such a sequence of linked mixes is called a Mix Cascade. Users can choose between different mix cascades.

Since many users use these intermediaries at the same time, the internet connection of any one single user is hidden among the connections of all the other users. No one, not anyone from outside, not any of the other users, not even the provider of the intermediary service can determine which connection belongs to which user. A relationship between a connection and its user could only be determined if all intermediaries worked together to sabotage the anonymization. more…

The intermediaries (mix providers) are generally provided by independent institutions which officially declare, that they do not keep connection log files or exchange such data with other mix providers. JAP shows the identity and number of organisations in each Mix cascade in detail, and verifies this information by cryptographic means. The users are thus able to selectively choose trustable mix cascades.

Seems like a fun research project. But not sure how much I would personally trust it.

Also, no idea about the app but at least the project seems legit.
