¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sorry, works for me on both Voyager and the aussie.zone web interface. No idea what could be wrong

If you’re already in the repo it’s “Watchy 3.0 Review.md”

Potentially relevant for anyone considering a Watchy

Gecko doesn’t have a WebView implementation (GeckoView is not a WebView implementation), so it has to be used alongside the Chromium-based WebView rather than instead of Chromium, which means having the remote attack surface of two separate browser engines instead of only one.

This seems to be the main thrust. GrapheneOS has a hardened WebView, that using a Gecko browser bypasses and adds more attack surface because you still have the WebView.

Outside of Graphene this is less relevant (because of the lack of hardening) and outside of mobile only the isolation comments are relevant, which they note are being improved rapidly in desktop.

Arguments in favour of using Gecko browsers are typically about preventing a single corporation from monopolising web standards, and having continued access to proper ad blockers, things that are not part of Graphene’s focus.

+9 appears to be currently shivving +10, so my money is with them

I may have misunderstood the assignment

Conversations.im

Has an onboarding wizard, includes text, voice and video calling, OMEMO encryption, group chats etc.

But more importantly, what have you tried and why didn’t they work for you?

The vast majority of micro USB cables are A to B cables, but USB A to micro USB B. Maybe if they had been introduced now when super thin laptops are a thing they micro USB A might have become more popular. Or more likely, the problem with the A/B distinction would have become more obvious sooner

Micro USB also has an A and B connector

The name is really just branding - Chromecast, Google Cast and Google TV have all been used for radically different Cast Receiver products. The important part though is that my device doesn’t have Android TV installed on it; it doesn’t have Apps and I can’t install VLC on it.

(If you meant VLC was on the mobile device, I believe this is a separate system where you stream from the mobile device to the Cast Receiver thingy. The big value of Chromecast (the standard) is that the mobile device doesn’t do any real work, just tells the Cast Receiver where to look for the stream. If I misunderstand the situation let me know, I’m eternally hopeful)

Yeah, I’ve got an actual Chromecast, not a Google TV, so I can’t install anything on it. I have enough computers around that buying anything new would be redundant, but nothing works quite like a Chromecast.

The only reason I’m on a Google rom is because I can’t get confirmation that I can cast Netflix to a Chromecast with microG. It’s the only Google ecosystem thing that matters to me. If they try to break my phone then I finally get to get over that hump, no loss. Almost everything in my phone is F-Droid (“side-loaded” is such a loaded phrase)

I’m also hopeful that this move will get struck down given the recent anti competitive practices cases they’ve lost.

It’s easy to win a war when your enemy is strangling themselves to death.

I still appreciate it in this list, but the caveat is important

It’s not what you’re looking for in this post, but you might be a good candidate for postpost.social (note that the dark reader addon kills this page)

It’s an alternative shell for Plasma, so theoretically you should be able to do anything in it that you can do in Plasma.

On my Arch box it installed a minimal set of Plasma utilities to support it, which means my setup is still very limited (and I can’t turn off screen lock!), but I haven’t tried if it would change if offered a full Plasma install.

I can most certainly launch Steam, Kodi, Jellyfin etc.

This has been happening to me in embeds for ages, and I am logged in. It doesn’t even give any option to sign in or watch on YouTube, I just don’t get to watch embeds anymore.

I’ve been an Arch user for more than a decade and I’ll usually be first in line to defend it from dodgy claims about unreliability.

But that forum response is bizarre. Literally the last two RSS items right now are about how splitting packages will require intervention for some users (plasma and Linux firmware). VLC is an officially supported package, and surely this change would impact almost every VLC user?

New opt-depends is a nice pacman feature, but it hardly implies that things have been removed from the base package.

You can do this on Arch too and it will work great until it doesn’t. Manual interventions are rare and usually don’t affect everyone.

Hopefully this will help
