Have you tried fcitx with the Anthy plugin? I use that for Japanese.

Same. The UI is pretty good and modern, they support TOPT and cards as well and the development is being done at a good pace.

I used an app called Noice from F-Droid which has a lot of pleasant background noises (including white noises which I sometimes use while sleeping). One update, the author suddenly added internet permission, pulled out all the noise music files from the app and put them behind a server. Now it only works if you have an active internet connection OR you buy a premium.

Thankfully, I still have the last “good” version.

Do open an issue on GitHub for whatever you feel needs work. This project is being actively worked upon, I’ve seen stuff get implemented within a day even!

Have you tried this active fork of OpenBoard? The dev added support for multilingual typing months ago. This has Material You theme as well as glide typing (needs to be turned on manually).

Detroit: Become Human fits the bill perfectly! It’s a great game with some of the hardest choices you’ll ever make in a game period.

The ads Google must have personalised for you based on that would have been interesting. But everyone on Lemmy uses ad blockers so you prolly wouldn’t even have noticed xD

Great list! One suggestion: Try Helium’s OpenBoard fork for keyboard. It has tons of features like full Material You theming, glide typing, multilingual language support as well as autocorrect and suggestion support. I’ve been waiting for autocorrect to be added in FlorisBoard for more than an year now.

Avoid the browser but I’ve been using their search on Firefox. Really like the AI summarizer and the results are also good.

They should add login and subscription handling on their website as well like so many do, with 30% off on the subscription fee because there’d be no Google tax.

Damn I should have pushed harder when that incident with WhatsApp was all over the news. Only a few of my friends and a couple of family members switched.

The Gallery is also the most feature-rich one in FOSS with even a video editor. Couldn’t find any other FOSS video editors out there.

No end to the greed of these corporations.

That’s a video transcoder. Simple Gallery could crop videos, trim videos, merge them, add filters, text, music and what not. Good thing it’s forked by one of the devs who plans to maintain it.

It doesn’t have a video editor AFAIK. Any FOSS video editors around?

Yeah that seems plausible.

YouTube has also started attaching a Share ID of sorts:

The “si” query parameter is the tracker in question.

Presumably, it has your user ID embedded in it so all your efforts to concele your identity by using anon IDs on Lemmy/Reddit/Twitter etc routing through VPNs Tor whatnot can be shattered with a single share of a YouTube video. Plus, they can track and associate users with each other based on who all opened your link.

Using SimpleLogin, I create an alias for every new sign up and just turn it off if not needed. Only give your personal email to people not apps and websites.
