Apps (apks) must be signed before uploading to distribution sites like play store or f-droid. Some devs are signing their app releases with different keys, because for example the google play version of the app has to contain stuff they don’t include in f-droid versions. These are mostly privacy related things, google does not allow in their play store. In case of bitwarden the two versions are most probably the same and they’re signed with the same key. So if there’s an update in either of the two distribution sites it will show you, that there’s an update. Now I use Aurora Store instead of play store for apps that are not available in F-Droid and you can blacklist apps there, so I only get updates from F-Droid.

the Google Play version of an app is likely to have more privacy than the F-Droid version?

No, the opposite

I installed OpenWrt on my home router and set up wireguard on it. If you have dinamic IP address assigned by your ISP, like me, you also have to setup a dynamic dns updater on the router. I use duckdns.org. Then you have to open the port for wireguard on the router. Here’s a video guide on how to do it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo2AsW4BMOo

It’s exactly what you said: improving an existing app. For certain reasons, the original Bromite branding can’t be used and since the original project’s developer is basically left the project, this was the only way: forking and rebranding. The owner of this fork project was one of the main, most active contributors to Bromite anyway, so it should be fine. I wonder, though if there’s going to be a Cromite WebView as well, because I still use the Bromite WebView… Does anybody know?

Yes, apparently it has to be on some kind of builtin list of allowed browsers, otherwise it won’t work. But sadly the PR is still stalling…

Has anyone used or contributed to OpenStreetMap?

I’ve tried using it over the years but I never liked it because there was no information. So last night I looked at my local city and there is almost no information at all. I spent a few hours last night adding buildings and restaurants and removing incorrect items. It was actually kind of fun and therapeutic and I plan to do...

I already did a small modification on our street we live in, because it was not a one-way street anymore. But we also have a vacation home on a vineyard where the road does not even exist and I figured if I can log gps coordinations while going up to the gate then maybe I can use those coordinates to import them as a way in OpenStreetMap to be precise. Or, since it exists on google maps, maybe getting coordination data from there and use that to create the way. Is something like this possible?

Lower scores are better, right? Based on that speedometer graph.

Ever heard of surfingkeys? 😃 If you’re a neovim/vim enthusiast like me, you’ll enjoy this 😃

Thanks everyone, then I will go with the subdomain approach.

YSK: If you want faster and less buggy User experience, move to a smaller instance that is hosted close to you.

I have been using Lemmy for 20 days, at first I opened an account at Lemmy.world because you can join without writing a text and waiting approval. I have been enjoying the experience overall but despite the admin teans best efforts Lemmy.world has been experiencing some serious performance issues. If you want to avoid that join...

You can check this list and find an instance hosted in/close to your country.

I think your best bet would be to buy your own router and then use that one instead of the ISP provided router.

If you want to go more deeper, you can maybe choose one that is supported by OpenWrt. You can use the Table of hardware or the firmware selector to check if your desired router has OpenWrt support.

There you go, I believe, this is the one 🙂
