    Screenshot of #SignalDesktop I took last year on #Librem5.

    Regarding browsers, the default #FirefoxESR does not need any zooming in, and neither does #GnomeWeb, #Kumo or #AngelFish. On #BraveBrowser, I zoom in 125%.

    Btw, being able to use desktop apps on #LinuxMobile is generally considered one of its advantages!

  3. Remember how all the data stored locally from Signal Desktop is completely unencrypted?

    Since the developers clearly aren't interested in changing this, I've written a shell script that makes it a breeze to encrypt and decrypt your Signal Desktop data using VeraCrypt.

    It will also create a launcher for you (an .app on MacOS and a shell script on Linux) to automatically mount the encrypted storage before launching Signal, and automatically unmount it when exiting.

    Just run the launcher instead of the app, and pretend that the password prompt is a Signal feature :)
