Mini Text is an ephemeral text editor. It doesn't save your text to files and doesn't allow for complex formatting. It's for writing thoughts down quickly - your digital scratchpad. Most useful after turning on "Always on Top" for the window. For somewhere to save your ideas, to write down something quickly and without fuss, try Mini Text!

Linux Mint 22 will hide unverified Flatpaks in the Software Manager app by default. Users will be able to choose to see and install them, albeit with warnings - https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/06/linux-mint-will-hide-unverified-flatpaks

I use on wayland and keep getting various apps showing the generic Wayland icon in the dock. I found a relatively easy fix at this section of Nick's @thelinuxEXP video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sungl8gWU_8&t=129s

Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.

The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍

ollama's becoming just an every day tool. First via the Alpaca #flatpak for chat, but also via charm.sh's mods tool, which lets you pipe commands, etc into a model. Here I'm using codestral to explain my status back to me. Neato! 😀

#Flatpak verification is a lie and #LinuxMint buying into it, disabling all unverified Flatpaks citing ‘safety concerns’, is incredibly dumb

@brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

#Flatpak also has no way of marking packages as ‘permitted by OG maintainers (OGM)’ without setting a false assumption that the package comes from the OGM. So you either mislead users that the package is officially from OGM where it isn't which harms OGM when they provide support for the software, but only official distributions, or you keep it ‘unverified’, making it inaccessible on distributions like #LinuxMint now

This is sooo bad

Sorry für weiteres #NixOS Simping, aber man kann sogar #Flatpak den Nix Way installieren. Einfach geil. :owi:

Wie kommt es, dass NixOS nischiger ist, als #ArchLinux oder #Gentoo? Das ist der beste Weg eine #Linux Distro zu konfigurieren, den ich je gesehen habe. Ich wünschte, ich hätte es früher gekannt. Von NixOS habe ich das erste Mal vielleicht von vor ein paar Monaten oder so gehört.

So we all know snaps on ubuntu are dodgy (thanks canonical) but to be honest is no better. Faux containerized 'sandboxed' apps with all dependencies is a waste of hdd space! I will take an or file over flatpak every time.
Maybe I am old school, or maybe I just like my hdd space for other stuff, not duplicate dependencies!

Need your online messages to stand out? Need to really emphasise a specific word or phrase? Calligraphy can generate ASCII banners that impress. Input your text, sort through a catalogue of many distinct and varied typefaces, then pick the one that best emphasises your message. Next, just let the app copy it for you and paste it wherever you can write text!

You can follow the app's creator here: @GeopJr

You can get the app on Flathub here: https://flathub.org/apps/dev.geopjr.Calligraphy
