  • JustMarkov@lemmy.mltoPrivacy@lemmy.mlWhy do so many people still hate GrapheneOS?

    People have to learn to separate software from its developer.
    For example, I don’t care about Hyprland lead dev being an asshole sometimes, if the WM he’s developing works good. I don’t care about Cider devs political positions if it doesn’t directly affect my experience with the software.

    And people also have to learn, that if someone uses any particular software, they aren’t necessarily using it the way developer pointed out they should.
    I use GrapheneOS on my device, but that doesn’t mean that I completely follow devs philosophy. I don’t use Vanadium, 'cause I don’t wanna support Chromium monopoly. I use F-Droid to install my apps, even if developers think, that I should get my apps directly from its devs.

    Does GrapheneOS founder or developer philosophy that you don’t agree with makes Graphene a bad OS? Of course it doesn’t. GrapheneOS is still one of the best options on degoogling your device if not the best.

    I use KDE, because it runs perfectly on wayland and covers 100% of my needs.
    Budgie looks very promising now and I want to explore it further. Also LXQT is perfect for older devices or if you want a KDE, but simplier.




  • fooyin is a music player built around customisation. It offers a growing list of widgets to manage and play your local music collection. It’s extendable through the use of plugins and many widgets make use of FooScript to offer an even deeper level of control.

    Audio playback is supported by FFmpeg alongside multiple options for output including ALSA and PipeWire, with more to come.
