@heavyboots@lemmy.ml avatar

These are a bit unique from the lists everyone else has, I think:

  • Lemmy Keyboard Navigation (like the kbd shortcuts from RES)
  • Google Popup Blocker (stop the annoying log in with Google popups everywhere on the web)
  • OneTab (this one lets you collapse a whole window of tabs down into a list in the OneTab tab that you can later reexpand into a window again when you re-attack whatever subject all the tabs were about)

These are the more standard ones that everyone seems to run:

  • UBlock Origin
  • Reddit Enhancement Suite
  • 2FAS Extension
  • BitWarden

Metamask, excellent extension.

i was held back a while because no Roblox on Linux but I’ve resorted to using my phone if i really want to(ps: little mad at Roblox for killing off vinegar and the rest).

I get cheap hardware. A hardware intensive OS seems stupid to me. I want my computer running the programs that I want, not wasting memory and CPU usage on the OS instead.

Plus I’ve gotten a notification on every laptop I own from Windows telling me to upgrade followed by something saying that they are below specs for the upgrade

barsquid ,

“Time to upgrade!”

“Ok…”

“Sike! Buy a new machine so we can force you to subscribe to it.”

passepartout , to gaming in I uninstalled RDR2 out of frustation after 100+ hours
@passepartout@feddit.org avatar

I have left about 70 hours of time in this game for playing the story one time and most of the side quests. It would be even more if they fixed the frickin vram memory leak causing the game to crash after one or two fast travels, but it’s unplayable for me this way. Search for “rdr2 FFFFFFF” if you’re looking for another reason not to buy this game.

Gleddified ,

Oh that’s what that is. I just assumed it was Linux things happening. lol

along_the_road ,

The issue was fixed for me in that update they did earlier this year. Also the horse stable glitch was fixed after many many years.

Just switch over, if you like! I want you to feel comfortable with the decision and feel motivated to give it a good shot.

If it’s not for you, I understand. Maybe in a few years it’ll be a better fit but it’s no rush.

lolcatnip ,

Careful, comments like they might get you banned from Lemmy.

ShaunaTheDead , to asklemmy in What web browser extensions would you highly recommend to others?

I haven't seen anyone mention these yet

LibRedirect - redirects common proprietary sites to a free and open source alternative
Tampermonkey - allows you to find and install custom open source scripts that add functionality to websites

WhyJiffie ,

Check out ViolentMonkey, it’s an open source userscript manager

ShaunaTheDead ,

I think that's basically the same thing as Tampermonkey. There's also GreasyFork which hosts custom scripts.

Drusas , to nostupidquestions in How much salt water to kill a tree?

Maybe there are no stupid questions, but there are bad questions.

Librera for books.

Too Good To Go for food.

Bring for grocery list.

DRC, Flowtones, and Mini Piano Lite for screwing around with musical ideas.

multifariace ,

Is it easy to find specific books on Librera?

I use Libby for my local library system and books I want to read are often not available or have a waiting list.

anon6789 ,
@anon6789@lemmy.world avatar

Librera only reads local files, so you need to already have your books. It has a few reading modes, does text to speech to turn regular books into audiobooks, sheet music mode to flip pages for you, and some other fancy stuff I haven’t tried.

I used to use MoonReader, but this is FOSS so I switched over. If you get it from F-droid, you get the pro version and it also has no Google Play services.

If you have a source of book files (PDF, epub, Kindle, cbz, etc) such as Project Gutenberg or another alternative repository of books, you are set. The archive source I use has the things I look for: older fiction, sheet music, programming books.

I hope fusion 360 gets a Linux version

barsquid ,

I will hope I can decipher FreeCAD’s interface instead.

JohnDClay ,

The problem is I’m addicted to Fusion’s generative design topology optimization. I haven’t seen anything else like it on the market, much less open source. It’s shapes are so cool and material efficient for 3d printing.

barsquid ,

Luckily I am not smart enough to know how to use the more powerful tools in Fusion, so I can still escape and not know any better

umami_wasbi , to selfhosted in Is there a fork of telegram that works with a self hosted XMPP or other chat server?

OP, I understand what you look for, but that’s not easy task. From my limited knowledge of apps development, achieving what you requested would likely be:

  1. Identify and remove all relevent code to the backend. Easier if it’s modular, very hard if they’re litrered everywhere.
  2. Chose a XMPP client library that have relavent extension support that can translate to features in XMPP.
  3. Write an adaptor (if modular) to match the methods signature and translates calls to the client library. Or reimplement all the code you removed (if littered everywhere) with the client library.

This is akin to swaping to a new engine for a car, with incompatible mounts. Diffcult to execute, and (I believe) low interest. You can try if you got the skills. I don’t and even I have, I will just use SimpleX which fits my needs.
