Proton Pass is open source and has now passed an independent security audit
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    I've been using Bitwarden for a long time and I'm mostly pretty happy with it. I know that, other than the platform's level of security, there's not much to compare when it comes to something like a pass manager, since it only has to do one thing. But does this one have or do something that would make me move to it?

  • If you want to host something on a Raspberry Pi, you should consider using literally any other piece of hardware
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    Yeah, power consumption is never talked about enough when talking about that type of hardware. I do have an old PC I could use as a server, but I don't need more heating at home. Mini-PCs are cool, but how cool are they?

    But anyway, I haven't been able to buy a RPi at decent price in years, so 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • The text area for replies is tiny and you can't scroll back to the beginning of it to check for grammar errors or whatever because scrolling up closes the whole thing. Like a punch in the dick after writing four paragraphs of a reply. Anyway, I'm gonna have to use some other app for now, but I wanted to give the feedback in case it's useful. Cheers.

    Aonuma says Nintendo not thinking about classic style Zelda games at the moment. Does anyone think it likely they could use a third party developer again, like when Capcom made the Minish Cap ?
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    I disagree with all and every single point you made, to the point that I think the complete opposite about most of them. So I guess those are subjective, not objective issues, and the game is not for everyone. I don't think every game has to be for everyone, but it's clear looking at popularity, sells, and cultural impact, that both BotW and TotK are liked by a huge amount of people just as they are. And I for one would definitely like to have a third installment.

  • Microsoft Launcher crashed on my phone, erased all my settings and won't start again. What launcher are you using and why do you recommend it?
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    I love widgets! Ugly as they are, I love to have a bunch of info at a glance, and most act like shortcuts too. I'm still rebuilding since everything got deleted, but from memory, I got widgets for gmail, whatsapp, todoist, keep, a few music and podcast players, tv time (a tv show episode tracker), toggl, feedly, and something google made called action blocks that let you make button widgets that run predefined actions with google assistant. And I'm sure I'm forgetting at least a handful.

    I finally ended up going back to Nova too. There's only one feature I'm missing from Microsoft Launcher, the feature that made me move from Nova to it in the first place, the scrollable wall of widgets. But I guess I'll have to live without it.

    I get what you say, but the main screen is the main screen. When I tap the home button, it goes to the main screen. On the Pixel Launcher it would take me to the leftmost screen.

    I guess I'm just used to using my phone like that, I've had mostly the same set-up for about a decade. I could get used to something else, but I use a ton of widgets all the time, so I like being able to move fast from the main screen to a certain set of widgets. That's what I liked about the Microsoft Launcher, it had a scrollable screen where you could have any number of widgets on a single screen. I wish other launchers had that too.

    The thing is that I use a bunch of screens, so I want to have some stuff at the left, some at the right.

    The one thing that made me not use the Pixel launcher is that you can only add screens to the right. Even if you disable that stream of clickbait trash they want you to have on the left of your homescreen.

  • I was a Nova Launcher user for many many years, but then Microsoft Launcher came with basically the same features as Nove and a few new killer features, so I moved to it. But today I woke my phone up and everything was gone. My screens, widgets, folders... And even if I wanted to set everything up again, I can't because Microsoft Launcher won't start. So... yeah, fun times. Won't be using Microsoft Launcher ever again, even if they fix it. What are you guys using? And what killer features does you launcher of preference have that make you use it?

    Spotify couldn't care less about power users, and that's about all there's is to say about that. Sucks when the tools and the services are linked, so you can't choose a tool to use with a certain service. Kinda the reason most of us are now on Lemmy, I guess.

  • Are you guys tired of "Material You" design?
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    As a UI/UX designer myself (non-hobbyist), there's UI and there's UX. What differentiates a good-looking design from a crappy-looking design, most of all, is space (or padding). There are many other factors, of course, contrast being also very important for example, but space is number one. But that doesn't make a design good, just good-looking, which is a very different thing.

    Adding steps to take a common action (turn off wifi or whatever) because you used to have a certain number of buttons and now you have to hide some to add space... That's bad design. Good looking, good UI. Shit UX.

    Space should be added when needed. And you need it, when you do, to make thinks clearer. You shouldn't add space to make it look better if that's gonna make the experience worse.

    The number one rule of design is that form follows function. You should make things as pretty as possible until you find the wall of functionality, and then you stop. Going from six quick access buttons to four was breaking that wall. You wanna be just on top of the wall. Go to one side, you get a great looking interface people hate to use. Go the other side, you get an interface that's dense and full of things you want, but looks like a piece of nerd shit.

    I'm also tired of people repeating the same copypasted ideas about any new design system out there (as I'm sure most people are when hearing people talk about their area of expertise), but they are not wrong on that regard when it comes to material you. Shit name by the way.

    Yep. It's never an issue to fill a message board with memes and cats, the hard part is filling the niche communities. I hope it gets there.

  • I wish there were a more old-reddit style theme option for Lemmy.
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    Hmm... that's interesting, I didn't think about that. Definitely not gonna proxy, that's for sure, I wanted it to be serverless.

    Welp, I don't know how it could be done then. I would ping Dessalines or Nutomic, but I haven't really decided to start working on this, so I won't bother them. But if anyone feels like going for it, I'll be happy to lend a hand.

    Edit: I just saw there's an open PR to allow CORS. I guess we'll see how it goes.

    I took a look at lemmy-ui, but I'd much rather work on something more static and detached.

    Looking at the conversations they are having on GitHub, that doesn't seem like a great idea. If I was going to contribute to the main repo, it would be to help with whatever they are doing, not to push ideas that they are not looking to implement at this time. They are working on rewriting the UI anyway. I really don't see what would be the problem with having an alternative front for people with different tastes that those of the devs.

    It’s simpler than creating a whole separate client

    Maybe. But I wasn't really looking for the simplest way to tweak the UI, I'm already doing that with my own scripts. Making a web client with a different UI that people can fork and make their own just sounds like a cool project to work on.

  • I wish there were a more old-reddit style theme option for Lemmy.
  • Cosmic_Frog Cosmic_Frog Now 100%

    Let's say I start with something simple, like moving everything to the left of the screen instead of centering it. People like OP and me would like that, but from the POV of the lemmy devs, that's quite a shit PR, isn't it?

    I would rather have a web client that can go in a different direction UI-wise, and if they like anything there, they can take it for the main web UI. And of course, there are many other advantages of a client, like using multiple accounts from different instances.

    Edit: I also like the idea of a simple client anyone can fork and modify to their taste.
