Discover - possible to limit download speed? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, sadly I have a very limited internet connection (10 Mbit). When I'm watching a video and then install something in Discover, it takes almost all the bandwidth and the video begins to stutter & buffer. Somebody knows if there's a way to limit the download speed for discover - preferably without installing additional software?

Android 15 will make it easier to deal with notification clutter in c/android@lemdro.id

Happy to hear that it changed for the better. I'm still on Android 10, where it sadly isn't the default. But thanks for letting me know :)

I'd prefer that notifications are blocked by default (should be opt-in instead of opt-out). The only apps I NEED notifications for, are messaging apps, everything else is just annoying.

Und wieder wird das Rad neu erfunden, statt das was altbewährt ist und gut funktioniert (LibreOffice) mit Förderung zu unterstützen.

Warum nur müssen wir uns immer das Leben so schwer machen?

Gibt es Musikstreamingdienste mit Sozialabo? in c/fragfeddit@feddit.de

Wäre noch gut gewesen, wenn du erwähnt hättest, auf welchen (Betriebs-)systemen du den Dienst nutzen willst ;)

Nichtsdestotrotz werfe ich mal YouTube Music in den Raum. Hat eine recht Auswahl und kann man auf Android mithilfe von ReVanced auch ohne Abo werbefrei nutzen.

Bei uns gibt es einen regionalen Radiosender, der auch Nachrichten via RSS anbietet. Langt mir (meistens).

Gibt es irgendwo eine Liste aller von der Bundesregierung/-ländern geförderten Projekte? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi,

ist vielleicht etwas nischig und unkonkret, aber gibt es irgendwo eine Liste in der man sieht, was von Seiten der Bundesregierung/-länder gefördert wurde?

Um es ein bisschen genauer zu beschreiben: Mich interessiert z. B. welche Vereine, Initiativen, NGOs gefördert werden (Beispiel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzV_9ruZryw&t=508).

Oder Software-Projekte (Beispiel: https://microg.org/ <- ganz nach unten scrollen)

Vielleicht kennt ja jemand etwas in der Richtung. Muss nicht auf die zwei Themenbereiche beschränkt sein, bin da für alles offen und dankbar.

Kannst dich bei Tuxedo mal umsehen. Ist ne deutsche Firma, hast also mit Support und Garantie auch weniger Probleme, als wenn du was aus dem Ausland kaufst. Die verkaufen nur Hardware die auch sicher mit Linux läuft.

How to get rid of factory applied laptop stickers? (lemmy.ml)

Hi, I got a used laptop from an family member. It did have this this annoying sticker on it (see picture). Apparently for years already.

So, how can I remove it without scratching the metal body or leaving residue behind?

Edit: Having some problems with picture upload, but here's a similar photo for reference: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jDV7-ehqF38/maxresdefault.jpg

Multiple Adblockers in a row - does it make sense or is it even harmful? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, I was wondering, is it useful to use multiple adblockers in a row?

I don't mean 4 or five 5 browser extensions more like a chain of adblockers, one on every passing network point.

Adblock DNS -> Pi-Hole -> Linux System with hBlock -> Browser with uBlock Origin

I have only a 10 Mbit Internet connection, so I fear that this would slowdown pageloads to much. On the other hand there are filterlists that uBlock can use where as Pi-Hole can't.

So what combination does make sense (is efficient in every aspect) and what do you use?

Keine Lösung des Problems (darum kümmert sich vielleicht Max Schrems), aber 1ft.io gibts auch noch.

What's an easy to use matrix messenger for family and friends? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi,

I'm searching for an "noob-proof" matrix messenger that is supposed to replace WhatsApp.

It should have E2EE enabled by default and a backup/restore function for contacts, chats and settings (preferably local backup, but nextcloud would be fine aswell).

It would be nice if you could also mention matrix clients that work on iOS, Linux and Windows as well (if there are any), since not all of my contacts use android or are always reachable per phone.

Happy to hear your recommendations and experiences.

Thank you!

Which FOSS FTP client app for android? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi,

till ca. 2018 I used clouds like Dropbox or Google Drive for storage. But since then I've moved more and more to FOSS, privacy-respecting software. Now I have a router with an USB port and built-in FTP (doesn't support SFTP) server. My plan is to backup some apps, pictures, settings etc. I would also store a copy of the most important files at a nextcloud instance. At the moment I don't have enough money to spend, otherwise I would have bought a NAS.

Q: Which FOSS android apps are available to up- and download from an FTP server?

Maybe you've also a little guide for me, as I was using only cloud storage for years and therefore have almost zero experience with this stuff.

Thank you :)

Online questionnaire to help choose an Android ROM (similar to distrochooser for Linux distros) (lemmy.ml)

Hi,

is there something like https://distrochooser.de/en/ just for Android ROMs?

It feels like there are hundreds of them and something like that would make the search easier.

For those wondering, I'm searching for suitable ROMs that could be built (from source), so I'm not limited by what's already available for my devices.

Thank you!
