But the Android app is already available. Although I can’t log in… Is this because the server is overwhelmed or are Android users indeed blocked? Why would they release the app then?

I think it’s a joke (maybe)

The low WiFi signal in the play store screenshots is stressing me out lol

Idk. I agree that it’s a bad practice, but I also don’t understand the downvotes. I think in this context it’s valid to share your preference whether to update or not. Maybe some people just click dislike because it has lots of dislikes? Who knows :)

I use it for explaining stuff when studying for uni and I do it like this: If I don’t understand e.g. a definition, I ask an LLM to explain it, read the original definition again and see if it makes sense.

This is an informal approach, but if the definition is sufficiently complex, false answers are unlikely to lead to an understanding. Not impossible ofc, so always be wary.

For context: I’m studying computer science, so lots of math and theoretical computer science.

I hope this is not true

But they run locally on the phone, if I’m not completely mistaken. So no use for a server.

Or do they offer this option? I think they explicitly advertise no internet access.

I’ve posted to ich_iel and I think it was funny 🫠

Made me think of this YouTube video :) Also check out the comments for more examples.

I only know that I was pleasantly surprised how well GNOME ran on a surface device of a friend.

It’s funny how my brain makes the cat look huge whenever I focus on the CAT logo.

As it probably has internalized the size of things with this logo

The cross looks like a “T”. That’s why, I think.

Explain please. What’s the true meaning and what’s the intended one?

Also this goes to show that F-droid needs a rating system IMO 🫠

Thank you for this awesome list! I had terrible experience with OSS Document Scanner and Image Toolbox though.

The scanner would just distort every image like crazy!! Would 100% of the time utterly fail to detect the paper edges even against high contrast backgrounds without any patterns and under very good lighting. I did like 20+ photos and immediately deleted the app, it didn’t produce a single usable result.

And image toolbox was just a pain to use. If you compare how you apply filters in e.g. Instagram to this app, the UX is purely frustrating :( Though the app looks nice and has lots of features :)

Sorry for all the negativity 😅 I’ll try to be more positive by sharing my favorite Spotify alternative, which is basically a YouTube music client with premium features. The service remains proprietary but the same applies to discord. InnerTune

Why downvote him? He made an observation and comments even explained why. I learned something, it added to the discussion.

The toolbar padding looks weird (top padding too low) and the toolbar key size is too small as well. But all in all totally usable alternative.

And OMG I love the glide typing it just works 🫠

I agree. Especially as the app is already 20 MB in size… 1.5MB wouldn’t make much difference IMO.

It’s better. Not good. Better than other tools, at least in the eyes of the many people using it. But as I stated at another post, to me this speaks to the fact that we need better FOSS alternatives for whatever purposes discord is used. I don’t like Discord either, don’t get me wrong! But so many people using it means something’s missing and I don’t think it cab solely be explained by the lack of knowledge of existing solutions but at least partly by the existence itself.
