Pffft, killing football in Italy is as impossible as killing baseball in the US. Italians will go extinct before their favourite teams.

+1 for the GIMP3 excitement, and ×1,000,000 for the YouTube gripe.
All the more reason to !degoogle your devices.
That’s the kind of reassurance I needed to go ahead. Thanks!
Cool, cool. Will give it a shot when I have a couple hours to install it 👍 Thanks for your help!
One followup question, might be out of your ballpark since you’re happily using Iodé: in their FAQ, they answer the question “Can I uninstall iodéOS and go back to Google Android?” with
Yes you can. Please follow this link [to their installation page 🤔] for iodéOS uninstallation.
Caution : uninstalling iodéOS requires coding skills.
I hope those “coding skills” aren’t more involved than being able to run a couple of adb
and fastboot
commands. Have you seen anything to the contrary, in support forums and similar?
to be clear, I’m not “going back to Google Android”, but I might get adventurous with other custom ROMs.
Uh, okay. Weird use of “uninstallable”, but this is definitely good to hear! I was looking at Calyx that has a suite of apps that will just always be stored on your device whether you install them or not. Glad this isn’t that sort of situation 🙂
Oh, good one! I love a good comparison table, and this one I didn’t know of!
Yeah, I’ve been on LOS/mG for a few years. Sorry if I didn’t make it clear. I’m just wondering if Iodé is a decent replacement or they have too opinionated a setup…
I don’t have anywhere near your experience, but the key points (customizable, no bloat, good wiki) all scream Arch, as you predicted 🙂
“The” RARbg, as opposed to the RARbg that closed last year? I’d be glad to hear that somebody picked up where the original site left off.
No idea what the John Tucker thing is about 😆
Fingers crossed it’s just temporary maintenance!

Give it three days, it’ll rise again.
I’ll grant you that their tech column is dismal, but I happen to agree a fair bit with their ideology so I’m pretty much fine with their (so far) unpaywalled news site…
Yeah, Newpipe is pretty great. It’s also a Peertube/Bandcamp/SoundCloud client 🙂
Ugh, let’s never mention simplemobiletools or Zipo again.
That’s the one. Thanks!
Youtube — try Newpipe for background playback. There is a version with Sponsorblock, I believe
Gallery — I use the Fossify one. You’ll find a lot of other FOSS utility alternatives searching for Fossify.
Media players — I waffle between different ones, but I always have VLC installed as a fallback. It feels clunky on Android, but it will play almost anything.
“Can LLMs think like us?”
No.
"Can LLMs think—?”
“Can LLMs—?”
Sounds pretty cool! Obviously, as a Linux user I’m not satisfied until I figure out how to make my own with Rofi, but kudos for the idea!
Good discussions can arise from bad takes, and the idea of “failure” can often be an impediment — especially in a forum where users’ yay or nay to a post literally decide its currency and ranking.
Assuming that the poster in this case deleted their post out of “shame” for a “failed idea”, however, is a bit of an overreach without access to their thoughts and motivations. And trying to pass principles about what “we” should or shouldn’t do on that basis is equally flimsy.
I do agree that deleting a post with several replies can be damaging to a discussion — emphasis on the potential, not the actual value of any given Lemmy conversation — but becoming the target for criticism or even ridicule for an ill-considered post isn’t exactly pleasant either. And after a few decades online, I’m not faulting anybody for deleting one post or another, even though I probably don’t understand the reasoning for doing so.
In the end, everybody is on here for different reasons, and all of them are valid. It would be nice to make a noble agreement about what “should” and “shouldn’t” be done when you get massively downvoted, but if people want to curate their pseudonymous online presence to appear less daft than their worst — let 'em.
