I really like Filen. They have an open source app on all operating systems, including Linux, which Proton Drive still does not support. They also recently added support for Rclone.

Signal still requires a phone number. What was added is usernames for contacts, so you no longer need to give other people your phone number for them to contact you. It is a step in the right direction, but it would be great for them to get rid of the phone number requirement all together.

Thunder and Voyager are my favorites on Android, but Mlem on iOS is my overall favorite.

Never. I have latex foam pillows that are a solid block, so there is nothing to fluff. It took me a while to get used to how firm they are, but I absolutely love them now.

Thanks for the update!

AudioBooth is a free and open source iOS app for Audiobookshelf.

There is Synctrain and Möbius Sync. They are not perfect due to iOS restrictions on apps running in the background, but they work well enough as long as I occasionally open them to make sure they sync.

HGST was created after Hitachi bought IBM’s hard drive business. It was then later bought by Western Digital.

Thank you for the script!

I wish the Flatpak developers would start focusing on the little details to solve problems like this. I have been using Fedora Kinoite for a couple of years and it heavily depends on Flatpaks. It works well, but due to many problems like this, I no longer try to fix Flatpak issues. I always try Flatpaks first, but revert to layering native packages at the first problem. I just do not feel it is worth all of the workarounds.

I will try to remember to give this script a try the next time I do a fresh install before falling back to native packages.

I no longer use Nextcloud. I use rclone with the smb remote for my NAS.

pCloud has a Linux client. Both GUI and CLI. But I personally use rclone for all cloud services. It is often even more reliable and offers better performance than official clients. It also allows managing multiple cloud services from the same place. It supports client-side encryption as well.

Valve is being sued because they are forcing others to follow policies that further entrenches Steam as the largest store.

Since Epic bought the game developer, it only applies to themselves. It is much harder to sue someone over a decision that only applies to something they own. How can a company be sued for not selling their product at a store? Should Valve be sued for not selling their own games on Epic or GOG?

Is Epic’s decision to only sell their games on their store annoying for users? Yes. But unfortunately, there is nothing illegal about. There would be a better chance of a lawsuit of Epic paying other game developers for exclusivity, but that would still not be easy as game exclusivity is still a significant factor on game consoles as well. Albeit much less than in the past.
