  • That wouldn't change the conclusion. Also, we probably don't have all the ocean floors mapped out.

    Nephele WebDAV Server now supports deduplicated file storage.
  • I looked into a bit more, and the fact that I can put it on top of an S3 compatible filesystem, with encryption and deduplication, is huge. I am seriously considering it as a backup system now.

    Nephele WebDAV Server now supports deduplicated file storage.
  • That's a great feature! Currently I am way too invested in Nextcloud ecosystem to try anything else. But if I ever want to leave Nextcloud for a simple webdav server, this will be my consideration!

    I am a victim of the network effect who wishes to degoogle. What do I do?
  • When people say degoogle, most of the times what they mean is they want to use software (preferably free and opensource) that respects their privacy. How does switching to ios help with that? You are jumping from Google's ship to Apple's and your hardware is going to be even more restrictive. And all the proprietary services OP has to use now (like Instagram) will remain the same in ios. So I don't see how switching to ios solves OP's problems.

    Heliboard goes into 1.0
  • If you're satisfied with it, you don't need to update. But Openboard lacks a lot of features many people want. The biggest of them is probably the glide typing, which Heliboard supports. And it also added a lot of quality of life improvements.

    Is there a way to make Subscribed my default feed instead of All?
  • Thanks. That works. I overlooked the three dots button. I was mostly looking in the settings, and couldn't find any option.

    Playtron's Linux-based gaming OS aims to be a cheap, versatile option for handheld gaming PCs (and other systems) - Liliputing
  • Competition is good. But I'll be glad only when that competition is viable and pro-consumer. So far I've seen a bunch of gimmicks and misrepresentations of facts from Playtron. So I am not glad yet. We'll see when they actually release something.

    The starting guide of de-googled user
  • Even though Sav is good, you should know that it has serious security vulnerabilities, which is most likely not getting fixed anytime soon https://github.com/Sav22999/sav-pdf-viewer-pro/issues/28

    Many other FOSS PDF viewers have this issue as well. For this reason, I would recommend using MJ PDF reader.

    google scholar alternative?
  • Yes that's the one. It's not specifically asking for a Google account is it? You can create an account with any email address.

  • Semantic Scholar is the closest I found to be a replacement of Google Scholar, and in so many ways it's better.

  • The ad-supported free option is still there. But yeah, if you want premium, you'll need to buy again.
