  3. Stefan Voigt asked forum participants to raise hands of who uses Windows/macOS vs a FOSS OS and then iPhone vs Google Android vs non-Google Android/Sailfish/et al.

    Enormous portions of macOS, iOS, and Android are FOSS. Let’s not discount that.

    Let’s also not shame people for not using more ideologically pure products when Linux still doesn’t “just work” and there is no Apple-quality hardware with Apple Silicon performance alternative. Hopefully one day you can shame me.

    There are tools to transpose (raise/lower pitch, if you're not a music geek :) recordings you'd like to sing along with.

    Notably, on Android, you can shift the pitch of YouTube videos (and/or change the speed, independently) with the free, open-source, lightweight, privacy-friendly, ad-free, third-party client NewPipe.

    (Tap the "1x" for the speed and pitch controls.)

    newpipe.net/

    Among other things, it lets you listen to a video in the background, and lets you download video or just audio.

    I recommend scrolling down in the installation instructions, and getting it through F-Droid, using NewPipe's own repository.

    (No connection to them here other than as a satisfied user.)

  6. Due to an unforeseen issue in the source code release, Gugal 0.8.2 has been deleted and will be re-uploaded later.

    The direct (GitLab) version of Gugal is unaffected. If you use it, you can install 0.8.2 from this link: gitlab.com/gugal/releases/-/ra

    The F-Droid version won't be updated until Gugal 0.8.2 is re-uploaded.

  7. After a long hiatus, Gugal 0.8.2 is finally out, with a fix for an issue where searx instances without HTTPS support wouldn't work.

    It also brings a number of minor improvements. Finally, Gugal is now available in Italian and Spanish.

    The F-Droid version is expected to be updated soon, and the direct version is now available: gitlab.com/narektor/gugal/-/re

  11. Frage: Könnte das die Rettung für fdroid und andere alternative app stores unter android sein?! Wie schätzt ihr das ein?

    Aktuell überlege ich, was meine nächstes Mobilgerät wird. Wenn fdroid stirbt, will ich ggf. auf "mobiles Linux" wechseln.

  15. GitNex 13 RC4 is available now for updates. It is the last RC release, which will be followed by a stable release later this week.

    This RC improves the UI and fixes a few bugs.

    It's time to translate it into your language.

    #git #gitnex #gitnex13 #codeberg #gitea #android #app #foss #opensource #forgejo

  16. A bug fix release of NexNode 3.0.7 is out now.

    Fixes:
    Fix crash when selecting region and plan in creating new instance
    Fix plan background color

    #nexnode #android #app #foss #opensource #linode

  17. GitNex 13 will go through huge UI changes, and it is time for the app to refactor the UI for the better. It may not be fully completed in version 13, but the foundation will be there.

    Stay tuned, you will love the changes.

  18. Wolke's new phone (Fairphone Gen 6) arrived today! After trying E/OS/ Wolke decided it like customisation and instead now installed iodé, which Wolke is very happy with.

    (BTW E/OS/s servers are real slow for downloads, like 200kbit/s slow. iodé hat 35MB/s - yes bytes! That is what Wolke's ISP allows it)

  21. "If it were to be put into effect, the developer registration decree will end the F-Droid project and other free/open source app distribution sources as we know them today," said Prud'hommeaux.

    Over the last 12 years, F-Droid has been my only source of Android apps I could confidently trust not to be full of antifeatures. This is a big step backwards.

  23. Came across the app ProofMode in the Guardian Project repository for F-Droid. Cool photo app that automatically creates a hash of pictures or videos you take and can share that with others.

    I have no need for it personally, that I can think of now, but it's nice to know it exists.
