And also, these sponsors should be at least somewhat relevant to you (ofc does not always mean it is.) ex. I watch The Linux Experiment channel, and he has Tuxedo Computers as a sponsor, who make hardware for Linux. Perfect match.

Other example is on mozilla’s developer platform (developer.mozilla.org), where the ads are not intrusive plus these are relevant for developers.

I just dont understand why cant we have these types of ads, instead of the tracking bullshit we have currently.

Yeah, Codeberg’s UI is almost the same as github, its good tbh.

P.S. i came to the conclusion that codeberg/github UI is good, when i went to sourcehut. Holy crap, my mind couldnt comprehend what am i looking at. (Could be a skill issue tho)

Even if you agree with something, you can play the ‘devils advocate’ and say what is wrong. You need to look at both sides.

I for example despise Apple. But i gotta admit their phones are pretty good if you just want a smartphone. Or if everything you have is apple, then the ecosystem is really nice.

Try to understand the other side, and be the opposing person. So these conversations can happen.

While I agree, but i tried Brave Search for a few weeks, and it seemed pretty good.

I wouldnt use Brave Browser, because Vivaldi is there (if you need Chromium.) But for a search engine which is free? DuckDuckGo maybe?

P.S. Kagi search is pretty good if you are willing to pay.

Holdup! I genuinely like this idea! On first startup it could ask for it, whether you would like to see this or not.

What they could do as well, is host their on git (forgejo is the name i think) and this donation built in. Basically what github is doing but without microsoft.

Here is a great list: https://github.com/nyas1/Material-You-app-list

Then you could search it up on Droidify or use Obtainium.

Ohh, I havent thought about backing it up with Syncthing! Thank you!

If you need a UI to have albums and share them then yes, the previously mentioned Immich. I host it as well, and it is truly awesome.

One caveat though: it is still pretty early in development, there might be breaking changes. For example a few weeks ago you needed to update the docker compose file because they changed dependencies.

Yeah, same. It just works™!

Syncthing is such an awesome app, it basically allows the usage of so many apps which just use plain files instead of the Cloud™. Obsidian, Signal, Aegis Auth, Grayjay to just name a few.

Yeah i guess you are right. Did not even think about it.

I dont know really, havent used paid versions of JetBrains products. I was always just eyeing with them.

Because you need to pay for further patches / newer versions, and need to pay 12 months worth to be able to use without a subscription.

It gets cheaper each year, so it incentivizes you to pay year to year.

Their explanation of the license

The best subscription model I have seen so far is for the JetBrains products. They call it the perpetual fallback license.

Quote: “A perpetual fallback license is a license that allows you to use a specific version of software without an active subscription for it. The license also includes all bugfix updates, more specifically in X.Y.Z version all Z releases are included.”

You dont ‘need’ custom CSS. It already adjusts to your firefox theme, so it actually looks as if it was native. Its such an awesome extension!

Absolutely agree with this one. Write down the problem and then the connections you made and the task that made you understand it.

For me it was interfaces (c# in this context). Like when do you even need them. How could an interface even be an argument for a function??

Then a problem came up, where a List or an Array could be a parameter in a function, but their length/count is not accessed the same way (still c#.) After this it clicked, that with interfaces you dont care whether it is a car or a cat, even a dog, if it can bark, it can be passed as a parameter into this function, and inside the function we only use these interfaced functions.

Yeah, its so much more interesting to edit code with only your keyboard. Always switching back and forth from mouse to keyboard is just too cumbersome.

Bonus points for Neovim: It made me understand my tools (LSP, linting, CLI tools, TUI etc…)
