F-Droid

Searched if Imagetoolbox had that option, but didn't find it.

Are there any good FOSS apps that can convert videos to gifs?

I remember Video transcoder from the past. It does not seem to be in Fdroid currently, as it is probably too old.

Checking out @fdroid in earnest for once (hope this is the Fdroid official account) and it looks a bit intimidating but still want to explore! Fastfrwrd could probably list ourselves there as a green social app. Anything to get away from Playstore!

NeoStore is a pile of garbage

Hello, I'm looking for a gallery app that can tag images and can display pictures inside compressed files, mainly .zip and hopefully .kra.

Currently I'm using Aves, which is really good at tagging, but it can't show images inside .zip or .kra.

If you read scientific papers, you know how hard it is to keep up with the hundreds of new ones published every day. So I built a private app that learns your interests locally on your phone. Your data never leaves your device, and the app shows you the relevant new papers in your field: computer science, engineering, biology, medicine, chemistry, law and more.

Here's the website and the code under GPL-3.0. I hope you find it useful as much as I do!

Dear @fdroid , why did you remove the information on app permissions? This is essential!!!

To study I need to used at least 2 pdf files at the same time in windowed mode (so I see file A to the left and file B to the right, or file A on top and file B on bottom). I cannot do that with fossify file manager.

I write to you from Germany, where I work. I use an android device.

The transportation authority I am in is called Mainzer Mobilität and because my employer only covers 50% of the transportation costs if I use the digital travel card, I'm basically forced to use google wallet, which I hate. This transportation authority doesn't offer pkpass files I could use with FOSS Wallet or pdf cards with my full name and a small qr code I could download. It has to be google wallet or use a physical card (and pay double).

I used to take a screenshot of the qr code and download the receipt as a pdf each month. On the receipt everyone can see the relevant data, including my full name, address, expiry date of the travel document, type of travel card and what I paid, but 5 days ago a "Kontrolleur" (an employee who boards buses to identify passengers without valid travel documents) fined me for not showing him the google wallet app with my pass there.

Yo read that right, it MUST be google wallet, otherwise I'm not carrying a valid travel document. The qr code alone together with the receipt with all my data and my identity card are not enough.

Is there any FOSS wallet or application that would work in Germany like google wallet does?

I really hate being forced to use google crap like this, I really don't want to trust them with my data but I need to save as much as I can.

Feel free to suggest other communities where I could ask this question.

Remembered about this a Lemmy convo.

It is good. Animations or pictures beyond the selected size are replaced by a red border. Clicking it will load that image. Or you can temporarily turn it off for the website and reload the tab.

There is an option to exclude Websites from from it too. e.g. You can exclude Lemmy instances where you want to see images by default.

Sharing it here since I had heard that uBo with full capabilities is now only available in Firefox

Pretty much what the title implies. I enjoy the feature itself and find it useful for browsing and discovering applications on F-Droid that I didn't know existed, but there are certain categories of applications that I have no use for and would find it easier to filter them out rather than ignore.

Hands off AI programs, where for example if I get a text message, without using my hands it read it to me, and I can use my voice to reply.

And any of other features like reading notifications, emails, whatever else! :-)

This seems to have come out of nowhere (dev has no other repos) but very polished and addictive. Anyone else enjoying this new game?

Parents live far away, so I sent them a qr code generated by my local SimpleX per email.

All they have to do is open their local SimpleX, go to one-time link and scan the qr code, right?

Once our devices have been connected, connection details remains saved in our local SimpleX and I don't need to send a new qr code before I want to talk to them again, right?

I hope you guys understand my question, as somebody who has used VOIP on very limited times.

On a regular phone call, there is a constant line of communication, meaning both sides could talk at the same time if they wanted. I thought VOIP would be like this, but in my experience VOIP is a short audio message you send, the other side hears it and sends you an answer, nothing wrong with that.

I want to talk to family, I don’t want to use whatsapp and I’m experimenting with SimpleX Chat. It allows me to send short audio files as audio messages, but it’s still not a continuous LOC. Would whatsapp be the same?

I want to convince family to use SimpleX, user experience would have to be as similar as possible to whatsapp

don't know if this is an appropriate community

I don't particularly like this application, but my whole family uses and they simply won't use any foss alternative I've proposed so far.

I'm even thinking about joining them.

I only need audio, no video calls, no file transfers.

ETA: what free droid apps can do simply that, not needing for me to provide a phone number or my current location / country?

@fdroidorg @fdroid l felt the urge to take this up with you. I'm from Vishal Bakhai's city. Now, a very tyrannical point number 13 exists in the TOS of the forum. It looks absolutely fine with a corporate, but it violates the spirit of a community. I believe that l've been done an injustice. I've always looked upon f-droid as an ally, but the forum team has treated me with great disdain.

@gadgetbridge @fdroid what's going on here? A new Gadgetbridge app in the fdroid store, from "zoop"?
Looks pretty strange to me.
