Here's a JSON export of my current Obtainium library
I was just looking into Waistline. I wonder if there's a way to download the Open Food Facts database, keep it locally, and have the phone query that instead of the internet when scanning barcodes.
Can anybody else vouch for unobtainium?
It has 6.4k stars on GitHub and a very active repository (also it's "Obtainium" without the "un")
I am not as funny as I think I am.
I checked it out, and it seems awesome. I might even be able to reset my tablet, and not even login to my Google account.
How does organic maps compare to other OSM frontends like OsmAnd?
OsmAnd has tons of features, and steeper learning curve. Personally, Organic maps is just too simplified for me.
Not OP, But for me, it's just a little bit more intuitive and runs so smooth. I think it has the best interface for directions, viewing maps, and zooming in and out.
is there anything like obtanium on Linux (fedora) desktop? there are several apps I use that dont seem to be part of dnf or flatpak and its a pain to manually check for and install updates from github
Antennapod for podcasts.
Futo keyboard instead of gboard.
Newpipe for YouTube.
Notally for notes.
Firefox browser.
I just downloaded Futo!
How is it?
Not OP, but it's decent.
If you're used to swiping to type on Gboard, the predictions aren't as accurate. 10-25% of the time, manually typing is faster than swiping because the predictions are so wrong, or because there's no prediction at all.
It's supposed to train locally in order to improve the predictions, but I don't know how long it will take for it to "catch up" to the swipe-to-text experience that I'm used to.
I could not live without swiping. Used SwiftKey but then switched to Google like 2 years ago after it got too bad.
Does notally work by syncing online? I haven't found one that allows me to share notes with family that still is more trustworthy than Google (apart from setting up my own server that I can connect to when I'm out).
Notally does not have any account or syncing capabilities.
How do you feel about using Syncthing? I use it to sync my notes and files between myself, but it could work in a family setting.

Does it work between two cell phones? I thought it required a server.
It does! And there's no server, it's all sync'd locally or encrypted over the internet. You just need to install it on both devices and point them at each other. I don't believe it works on iphones though. Or at least without jumping through a lot of hoops.
Very cool! I'm going to check it out
One word of caution, the folder ID (xxxxx-xxxxx) has to be the same for each folder you want to sync.
Forest is a simple step counter that shows you the steps you did today, with a little extra info.
Doable is a tasks/reminders app. It's not the most feature rich, and notifications are only in beta, but I love the design and it does what I need well.
Data Monitor shows you how much data you've used in your current plan, and you can see which apps use the most data (or wifi).
Quillpad for notes.
LibreOffice Viewer lets you open word documents and the like.
Squawker lets you open Twitter links more privately, and even follow users to see all of their posts, but requires you log in with an account.
Breezy Weather is a really nice weather app.
Love seeing Forest get the love it deserves. Beautiful UI.
Standardnotes for notes
Newpipe for Youtube
Organic maps for maps
Proton Mail, Calendar, VPN, Drive & Pass
Voyager for lemmy
Loop habit tracker for habit tracking
Breezy weather for weather
Antennapod for podcasts
Brave for web browsing
On a Pixel 6 running GrapheneOS
Wow I checked out Breezy and it seems it's exactly what I have been looking for in a weather app. I've been using Clima for some time now but it was never really a good fit for me. Thanks for the recommendation.
You're welcome! Glad I could help.
Here is my personal setup on a phone running GrapheneOS:
FlorisBoard Beta for keyboard
Grayjay for Youtube/Peertube/Twitch, etc.
K-9 Mail for mail
QUIK SMS for SMS
Mull for browser
Self hosted ente photos for cloud image/video storage
InnerTune for downloading/listening music
Taler Wallet for payments in the future
Keyguard for bitwarden password manager
Translate You for translator
TranslateYou is great! I use it for quick translations. For longer translations and conversations, there's the less feature-rich, but incredibly powerful on-device translator, RTranslator. It is truly and incredibly impressive.
Also, there is a whole suite of "You" apps. I've used the recorder and the calculator and liked them a lot.
It may be surprising and it may not be a viable solution for many here but, as much as I can, I try to use... analog tools.
Analog tools have zero tracking, zero spying, zero code. They're also reliable, sturdy, long lasting, don't need daily charging, update, upgrade or subscription fees. They work great. There is no one to tell me what I'm allowed to do and to not do with my analog tool or how I must do it.
I started browsing the Web using Mosaic.
Some people don't realize this was the starting point for Netscape that later became Firefox. They wanted to create a browser that would be faster and better than Mosaic. A Mosaic-killer, if you will. So they named it Mozilla.
So they named it Mozilla.
I had no idea about that.
I do remember how much I liked their various logos, be it those of Netscape and how madly I loved the old Mozilla t-rex logo — I still wear their old t-shirt from time to time, just because of that stupid but gorgeous head ;)
No subscriptions? Sounds to me like you're deep into a subscription to big paper, old man.
I have been drawing with pencil since the 1980s and I have tried and tried and tried to get used to digital, but nothing compares to physical pencil and paper for me.
Yep, as well as for writing I must say. I'm no stranger to high-tech but I have yet to find a digital writing tool tool that makes me consider retiring my fountain pens.
Agreed. I’ve been working with computer tech since I was a kid. I wrote by first program on an Apple in like 1985 or so. But some things don’t have to be teched-up, and although lots of people use it, I personally could never get used to how it feels.
Photo edit: Gimp, over Photoshop but, here, I can tell I dearly miss the simplicity/ease
I strongly recommend to switch to Darktable.
You need 2-3 youtube tutorials for your start, because at first it is not intuitive at all. But then it is so much faster, easier and your results will be better.
(there are things that gimp can do and darktable can not, but these are deep expert features that you, the occasional non-pro, don't use anyway)

Thx for the suggestion.
I tried it, already (as well as its fork, Ansel). It's too complex and definitely not intuitive, like you mentioned, and it's also too powerful for my humble needs. Really I'm more than happy with something as simple as Apple Photos and would use its Libre equivalent if I could find it ;)
I thought the same for several years. Tried it. Dumped it. Then I finally :) did the tutorials. Now it is all easy.
I use the duck-duck-go browser on my phone. It has kinda private mode enabled all the time.
Some wild websites complain about my adblocker then, which does not exist :)
Warpinator, use it to transfer files wirelessly between my PC and android phone.
What would be the difference between Warpinator and Local Send, I wonder.
They function the same. After using both, I get faster transfer speed and less errors on warpinator.
