For those that aren’t familiar, Anki is a very popular multi-device flashcard app with spaced repetition. It’s one of those FOSS apps that’s fairly popular even outside the tech/FOSS community, and it is used by a lot of (most?) med students, pre-med students, etc. It’s definitely the best flashcard software out there....

Just like piped for youtube. I remember bibilogram but it no longer works.

Hi, According to https://www.kcsoftwares.com/?sumo, their services are going to end tomorrow. Is there any alternative to it that functions in the same way? WingetUI works, but it cannot find all my installed apps outside of Microsoft Store,

So, a relative that all she plays in her tablet is solitaire, saw ads of some mobile crap full of microtransactions and now wants some of those. I said i’d check if there was games kinda like those (all puzzles of some sort), and would highly prefer if they’re all FOSS to avoid or at least highly reduce the chance they’re...

My life is pretty disorganized with stuff at school, work, and extracurriculars. For a few months now I’ve been encouraged to get a planner instead of keeping it all in my head. Now don’t get me wrong, I love taking physical notes and doing homework on paper with my nice pens and such. However, I do need a planner that syncs...

Android auto for OsmAnd is a paid feature either through subscription or one-time purchase. Has anyone tried it and do you think its worth it?

I’ve been using HabitNow since February and it’s a nice app. But I’d much prefer a FOSS alternative. The problem is that I’d like to keep my streak from HabitNow and apps either don’t let you mark in the past or they require multiple clicks....

Today FUTO released an application called Grayjay for Android-based mobile phones. Louis Rossmann introduced the application in a video (YouTube link). Grayjay as an application is very promising, but there is one point I take issue with: Grayjay is not an Open Source application. In the video Louis explains his reason behind...

I don’t understand what problem they are meant to solve. If you have a FOSS piece of software, you can install it via the package manager. Or the store, which is just a frontend for the package manager. I see that they are distribution-independent, but the distro maintainers likely already know what’s compatible and what...

Are there any you know of?...

Open source translators for Android and CLI are mostly using proxy for Google Translate or barely working LibreTranslate....

This would probably fit in better in the technology community and I’m pretty sure it has been shared already, so sorry for the duplicate, especially since it was already on the !privacyguides and and !europe communities....

Abstract:...

Was curious if there were FOSS solutions since I really would like to avoid using anything Google related

I’m on Linux mint, and I’ve been wanting to reorganize and clean out my online footprint for a while now, starting with Youtube. I realized that a very useful way to do this would be by compartmentalizing my youtube activity. This would have the additional benefit of each “compartment” having a very specific algorithmic...

EDIT: Lol, it doesn’t actually work +___+ It is enabled in KeepassXC but it just doesn’t do anything. Welp....

I’d like to have a tool to break down my free time in a week and try to get some schedule going on, while also keeping track of upcoming events (import from google calendar would be nice). Ideally no cloud service - would like to have it offline on my PC, and would be nice if it can run in the background and play...
