  1. #GoogleDocs added a new "feature": the text cursor now keeps blinking even while you move it by keyboard (e.g. arrow keys). That means, half of the time you cannot see where you currently are. Grrr.

  6. LaCrOs on chromeOS - multiple chrome profiles -

    "I have been using the LaCrOs version of Chrome for more than a year, and I was devastated when I read Robby’s post about Google shutting down the LaCrOs experiment in the near future. “Devastated” might seem like a bit of an overstatement, but let me explain.

    Don’t take away my profiles!
    The most valuable feature of LaCrOs was the ability to create multiple Chrome profiles. To those of you who use a Mac or PC as your primary device, [chrome profiles have always been available.]"

    For some reason, chrome profiles were not available on chromeOS until the lacros flag was made available in 2022. this greatly increases the utility of chromebook by allowing users to seamlessly switch between chrome profiles as can be done on windows and mac.

    update: draft - Ok so i figured it out. via search online:

    “View > Disable "Separate Pages”

    in addition “layout > orientation > landscape “ helps so its bigger. nice.

    i logged into one other account to make sure the view held there as well and it does. nice.

  8. @Jeze3D I am a big proponent of #foss and you are not wrong. #Google products a stable and reliable. Just look at products like #SkiffMail who was here today gone tomorrow.

    The issue of course is #dataprivacy. I like using #protonmail and #duckduckgo, but I am still looking for an alternative to #googledocs #googlesheets and #googleslides.

    It would be nice to have one ecosystem for all of this.

  9. As a #researcher, whenever I can't use a service hosted by my #university, I use #framasoft tools:
    - Framadate, not #doodle
    - Framagroupes, not #GoogleGroups for email lists
    - Framatalk, not #Zoom
    - Framateam, not #Slack
    - Framaforms, not #GoogleForms
    - Framapad rather than #GoogleDocs (if I don't need formatting, fortunately I have uni-hosted #onlyOffice + a #CNRS hosted #overleaf too, #plmLatex)
    - Framagit for #git, not #github/ #gitlab
