Anyone recommend a video app for Android?
Yeah, sounds weird, every phone comes with the ability to record video, right?
Problem is the lack of settings, I'm pretty sure the videos I'm uploading here are far bigger than they need to be, I don't need 4K here, I don't need anything fancy, 1080 is fine, heck 720 would prolly be fine here, but I don't get any control on my phone. I do have an editing app that could prolly do it, but it'd be easier if'n it was just built into the recording app in the first place.

looking for a #foss program that allows me to draw in a pdf without annoying "splitting it into pages -> exporting it as an image -> doing the drawing -> converting back to pdf -> unite all the page-pdfs" workflow.

I just want to use my drawing tablet to fill in some forms that were made for printing the pages.

any recommendations?

EDIT: xournalpp works for me!

Hiya nerds,

I need a software recommendation. I'm looking for a file comparison tool, sort of like Meld for GNOME but a little more tailored to the experience of reconciling duplicate files on multiple hard drives.

The requirements
- #FOSS / #FLOSS
- Compares Files, tells you if it is on Drive A vs Drive B

The Nice To Haves
- Recursive
- Bitwise comparison (in case the paths or file names aren't exact)
- Multiple drives? Might be a stretch.
- MacOSX compatible, but failing that, Linux only is fine too

The Use Case
My partner has multiple hard drives that have acted as her ad-hoc digital backup solution for years. But not every drive has everything on it, and she's pretty sure some of it is redundant, sometimes even within the same drive.

She'd like to slim down her storage needs and KNOW for a fact where and what she has, and how many copies.

Hey fedi, is LUKS over iSCSI over the web a good idea?

Usecase would be personal storage for mostly media.
Exclusive mount is not really an issue, but still feels kinda meh.

My main concern is: does this work good enough in practice over not super-reliable links?
secondary: does it perform well enough?

Are there other setups with data encrypted on client that do not statically leak a ton of metadata like file structure?

Going nutty, anyone know of a free (preferably open source) remote support app for android? I'm on a Linux PC but need to support an Android device in another location.

Love RustDesk but it has to be side loaded and I'll be damned if I can get remote input to work on android.

Been using @charmcli #gum for some of my shell scripts and it's so good and fun to use.

Is there a software for Linux (preferably FOSS) that is similar to Taskheat? Taskheat is a program that allows you to visualize your tasks as a flowchart (which is great for identifying the next actions for a project). Making an actual flowchart using vector design tools would not fit the bill; Taskheat does this efficiently.

What do you use to back up local files from Linux to external hard drive?
I have been using rsnapshot, but maybe there are better solutions out there?
Does anyone have an experience with btrfs and snapshots? Do you trust it?

Allez-y, recommandez-moi vos lecteurs de flux #RSS svp !

Je cherche un client :

+ centralisé (les mêmes flux synchronisés sur différentes machines), mais pas auto-hébergé car j'ai pas de serveur.
+ avec un bon système de filtres
+ voire avec un système de priorisation de contenu, car autrement je suis submergé, par exemple les RSS d'un site d'actualités comme BBC ou NY times y a juste trop…
+ open source

Actuellement j'ai testé Miniflux, spamal mais un peu basique.

@academicchatter
What tools do you use to manage the literature watch in your lab?

I feel that since it works best in collaboration, a plateform similar to a forum × reddit-like × mastodon-like would be great, but with this specific functions:

Posts would be centered around an article, ideally identified by DOI, and when you are about to share one, it checks that it hasn't already been shared.

Pre-defined tags would be used to classify by topic.

But hey, I'll ask here too, would you like to recommend an Android web browser? It needs to be modern and actively updated, have proper tab support including saving and restoring previously opened tabs, and ad blocking. A dark mode wouldn't go awry, either. #webbrowsers #browsers #mobilebrowsers #softwarerecommendation

Any recommendations for flatbed #scanner #software for #Windows, preferably #FLOSS and gratis, that can scan multiple #photographs or #drawings in a single scan, and auto-split them into multiple files?

#fediask I'm looking for a software kind of like a mailing list but when one list member responds to the original poster, the email is sent from the mailing list address... Any ideas where I might start looking?

Bonjour les geeks sûres et gens organisés, j'ai besoin d'une recommandation :

Quelle appli pour sauvegarder des liens (et leur contenu) entre plusieurs appareils, pour les lire plus tard ? Opensource et pas GAFAM.

Pour l'instant je mise sur Wallabag.
