@angristan Spotify is not fine. They're actively trying to appropriate podcasting so that Spotify will be the *only* client for podcasts (which they will probably rebrand). I love AntennaPod, it's available on F-droid. gPodder works well on desktop.

@pekli I'm talking about the bootloader on Xiaomi devices. Unlocking it is necessary if you want to install another rom. The waiting times differ. I had to wait 168 hours. You apply for unlocking here: https://en.miui.com/unlock/

My just bought Poco X3 Pro has now had the degoogled #lineageos treatment. So far so good. (Not so) fun fact when it comes to Xiaomi devices: you have to wait 7 days before the phone is unlocked. 😯

@ericbuijs Lovely! Is that LXQt?

A friend of mine who's a professional photographer paid over 10k for a website redesign (along with some branding services). He just sent me a link and asked me what I think about it. I see now he received a boilerplate website based on https://elementor.com/hello-theme/

Seriously, is this the way they do it these days?

@clacke Funny, started using Iceraven a few days ago. I like it, but I'm still extremely frustrated bookmarklets seem to work on about 20% of the sites, so I can't use Pinboard.in with it. Kiwi seems like my only option for for now. Bookmarklets work with Kiwi.

@PINE64 Oh crap. I bought a new Chinese surveillance handset the other day and I'm currently jumping through hoops to install Lineage on it. Don't tell me this is a PinePhone with a decent CPU... I wanted to get the PinePhone for GloDroid use, but it judging from YouTube videos it didn't look like there is enough computing power for Android.

@praxeology Yeah, it's cool! Like js without js.

@oppen As for project overload, I feel you. A "touch first" Linux on the phone seems more like a tinker thing than a daily driver thing from what I've seen so far. Must say I'm quite happy with both Lineage and Graphene.

@oppen Is GloDroid still the only feasible way of running Android on Pine Phone?

@oppen In that situation I would probably chose feeding the machine with as much erroneous data as possible. 😀 Moar ⚽️🍺🏒🚗.

@mntmn Awesome, thanks.

@mntmn Will it be housed in a reform form factor laptop?

@mntmn RISCy business.

@pinafore Thanks! The UX of "Instances" is a little strange. I don't know what clicking the star next to the instance name is supposed to do (nothing seems to happen). It was not apparent to me that there were settings available for a particular instance either. Perhaps an edit button to the right of the instance name would be easier to understand. Anyway, it works now. 😀 The ability to change the width of .infinite-scroll-page would be awesome, but I can use Stylus for custom CSS for now.
