It upsets me to no end that this isn’t a standard package 😭

Gross. Nice catch. I need to have a new account indicator.

I cannot possibly fathom how no one seems to catch on to bait and switch. At this point I’m just like “well duh” 🤷‍♂️

AdAway (F-Droid) will do the same but on-device (so it works everywhere), and if you’re rooted it’ll do it without the VPN by directly updating the hosts file.

Oh there are huge problems with my viewpoint - I wouldn’t even say it’s rational lol! I think that’s probably why I have trouble with the great rational arguments like yours (and many others in this thread).

I didn’t know there was a proper name for the 80/20 rule, thanks!

The reason I struggle with this rationale is that if everyone did this we’d be even more worse off. Kinda like I struggle to get around the apathy-is-the-enemy philosophy.

Oh indeed not deprecated, my bad. Wayland is default and “preferred” (how they’re deciding what to prefer I can’t imagine), and X11 is confirmed to be removed in a future release.

Plasma deprecated their X11 session in v6 pending removal in the future, and Redhat has already dropped it in Fedora & will do for EL in the next release.

Apart from fjordbasa’s caveat RE “ubiquity” above, this is probably the most succinct answer 😐

I think you’re looking for “anachronism”: A thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists.

I agree that what you’ve said is correct, but I don’t see how it would impede someone using the official repos. If telemetry is of major concern, there are alternative approaches (e.g. PiHole).

How does enabling third-party repo use prevent one from using the F-Droid repo?

I’d say continued improvement of third-party support suggests the main repo could be losing its value to users. There are apps in there over a decade old without even an anti-feature warning.

Nice, thanks!

Thanks 👍 That’s not available in AU AFAIK (I didn’t mention that limitation so that the post could be useful to everyone, but it’s true in my case). I have seen doshea/nyt_crosswords which is probably what I’ll start with despite expecting it to be a bit too advanced off-the-bat.

This is a fascinating concept, thanks! Just based on looking at it I get the feeling it wouldn’t be as quick/easy to pick up and put down as Sudoku or typical crosswords. Would you agree?

Sorry for posting and then passing right out 🤦‍♂️ Definitely American-style, but I could see her getting into cryptics as she got better at it. There was a progression from easy through to the hardest sudoku I’d given her. Thanks for the reply 🥰

Just because the phrasing of this post implies Obsidian is OSS, just FYI to others, it isn’t 😢

Also +1 for Vikunja! 👍

Need more beans.
