I am bilingual (non-english languages) and use those languages with friends and family. I also use English daily on social media etc.

I use openboard and it does exactly what I want it to do: it displays characters I can type out myself. I don’t use swipe typing, predictions or autocorrect as those never work well enough, usually exclusively giving shit suggestions or corrections. I also use three languages daily, so I’d have to constantly switch the keyboard language, if I had autocorrect/predictions/swipe turned on.

I do understand that my use case is not the norm, but I still wanted to give my two cents.

Same but with scanners. Plugged in a canon protable scanner, which requires their software to work on windows while it just works on linux. The cherry on top was that when I then had to make a single pdf of the things i scanned, I just ran pdfunite file1.pdf file2.pdf ... output.pdf and guess what… it also just worked.

I’ve been using FF for years now, probably since the quantum update. Tbh, the thing that prevented me to switch to any other browser since is the ctrl+tab functionality. I HATE cycling through tabs in any other order than by most recent tab. I didn’t find a setting to change it on chrome when I was forced to use it for work, but in FF it’s easily found in the settings and probably was on by default at some point as I don’t recall ever changing it.

In recent years the privacy aspect and the fact that it isn’t made by google have also played a role in why I’ve stuck with firefox. Also extension support on android, although the browser is still a bit slower than chrome on mobile.

Yes. I got my dad’s old LG B8 (2018 model iirc) when he bought a newer model and it still looks great to this day.

One thing to remember is that TVs in stores are likely using some kind of vivid color preset, which isn’t color accurate (some people do like oversaturated colors, I personally don’t). The perfect contrast, though, is as impressive home as it is in the store.

So what exactly is the problem here? If Sync gets bought and you don’t like the new owner, you can stop using it and move on…

This. Sync was so nice to use that I find myself trying to use all the swipe actions sync had in all of the not so good lemmy apps currently available. None of them are as polished as sync was (and hopefully the lemmy version will be).

Been using wayland on kde for about a year now on my laptop, and I haven’t had a single issue. I don’t use it for anything crazy, though, just web browsing and programming. I’ve been perfectly happy with it.
