Does anyone know of a good way to share #recipes? There's gotta be a git repository of recipes somewhere, right?

Rumors have it that iOS 18 will be a complete redesign. I'm looking forward to that. But the rumors say that they're going to circle-style icons for the home screen. Not great if you still can't put them wherever you want on the screen. Can you imagine all the wasted space?

I need a new phone since my current one died. I was thinking of getting a second-hand/refurbished Android phone that supports #Linux

I only have 2 major requeriments:

  • Calls.
  • Whatsapp & Signal.

Is this even possible? If so, which device/s should I look for?

#Postmarketos #mobile

@SrEstegosaurio the OnePlus 6 (or 6T) seems to have the best hardware support (i daily drive it).

I'm not sure about whatsapp, but for signal you can use flare: https://flathub.org/apps/de.schmidhuberj.Flare

I'd recommend installing postmarketOS edge with Phosh: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/OnePlus_6_(oneplus-enchilada)#Installing#Installing)

Also, it is worth noting that the camera doesn't work, and that MMS requires manual setup in Chatty's settings.

I'm going to end up spending 3000 on parts for a homelab setup. Vast majority of that is hard drive space.

Day 2 of attempting to daily drive postmarketOS Linux on a OnePlus 6T:

At the moment, I'm still carrying an Android phone which provides a wifi hotspot.

The most important things have been established: Fediverse access (via Tuba) and messaging (via Fractal). After initial problems with the repo-version of Fractal, the Flatpak version works very well. I've already been messaging my wife, family and friends from Linux.

I also successfully purchased and downloaded a public transport ticket for February.

The battery life has been very very good. I think the automatic suspend is working it's magic. However, I'm not sure if this affects notifications yet.

@fell Suspend stops most notifications (except SMS/MMS/Calls), though on my OnePlus 6 I get a decent day's worth of battery without suspend enabled, but YMMV

Always double-check these things, or get them from a reliable source like Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/org.gnome.Fractal

Joe_0237, to stackoverflow

I don't like because i feel that it is wrong and dangerous for the developer community to give one entity so much control over us. But I go on there all the time and I have never seen the toxicity that people are always ranting about.

Is it toxic to make corrections or help a person ask the right question so as to release accidental self imposed restrictions?

Does anyone have an example of something that people do there that is toxic?

@captainepoch @Joe_0237 Yup, they do. I dunno why tho

In a peculiar turn of events, Apple is going to implement RCS on their devices!!

https://9to5mac.com/2023/11/16/apple-rcs-coming-to-iphone/

This is great for most people, but we don't have this yet in Chatty/Phosh (we'll be stuck on SMS/MMS!)

I would really appreciate if some awesome person could take this on: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty/-/issues/219 :blobcat3c:

(I might be able to donate to that cool person too if im in a good spot financially by then, but no promises)

So I've been working with GTK4/Libadwaita in Python (in Flatpak), and I'm trying to get notifications to work.

I keep getting this error: "gi.repository.GLib.GError: g-io-error-quark: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.Notifications: Timeout was reached (24)"

Am I missing Flatpak overrides? (Docs seem to say no https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/portals.html )

Am I doing this wrong? (Code at https://github.com/TheKrafter/Groupings/blob/rewrite/src/groupings/internal/push.py#L31 )
