I very much like the simplicity of "A discussion platform for communities". If one wants to highlight the one feature that sets Lemmy apart from others, then adding "decentralised" would do the job for me. As others have already said, I am not using "federated" because that can only be used when "federation" is a known word, which it absolutely is not. If you understand "federation", then you probably already know about Lemmy. So,

"Lemmy, a decentralised discussion platform for communities".

I have been using the previous version since before it was pulled down. I still think Raccoon is the best Lemmy client I came up across.

It is way better now, but it is still a work-in-progress, especially regarding some more advanced features (none of which I found myself missing when on trips) and some polishing (not enough man-power to polish everything as of now).

I am going on trips with Anytype as well. Worked fantastically for my last two week-long trips. Relatively quickly, you can prepare on your PC an itinerary with files such as boarding passes, tickets, both as a normal file and embedded images to show at gates and similar. You can copy-paste e-mails, information from the web, links (URLs, etc. with additional context). Prepare for your travels, tick off things to do before leaving for your trip as well as creating tasks (as reminders, though without an actual reminder in your notification bar on mobile. You have to check the app for them.) to do before each day on the trip. All of this can be dumped into a single “page”, or organized into a hierarchical structure annotated by tags, relations between the objects and more.

To put it simply, I always find something missing in various itinerary apps. Anytype gives me the freedom to input every and all type of information I need for and during the trip.

Slight warning: If you input the files on PC, you need to them click on them (download them to your local storage) in the mobile as well. Then you can access them without requiring connection to the internet from your mobile later on. If you do this, everything you put in your Anytype itinerary will be accessible offline. Ideally, try accessing everything on mobile when your Wi-Fi and data connections are turned off.

Aegis is so great especially because it allows you to set an automatic backup every time you add a new TOTP. This way, a backup is made immediately after modifying the MFA vault, stored in your phone storage, where it can be grabbed by your synchronization system of choice (e.g., Syncthing), replicating the backup on your other devices, for example. This way, you can rest assured you will always have your MFA vault no matter what.

K-9 is rebranding as Thunderbird for Android, indeed. But since many users of K-9 expressed their desire to keep the logo and name of K-9, Thunderbird agreed to publish both versions: one rebranded as Thunderbird for Android, and the other keeping its original branding as K-9. We will see whether that will complicate things for Thunderbird team too much yet.

Beside concrete suggestions, I would suggest having a look at the applications you use. (Decide whether you actually use and need them first.) Search for the application on AlternativeTo or similar sites and look for a FLOSS alternative there. And also search the internet for general FLOSS replacements for the use-cases of the applications you use. No need to rush anything. Even replacing one application a week is good progress.

GitUI is amazing. The only caveat to many developers is that GitUI is still unusable when you GPG sign your commits, even after so many years and with functioning PRs already created. This excludes, in my opinion, a large portion of the possible users from using GitUI. However, it might still be useful for everything Git-related which does not require creating/changing commits.

ConcernedApe thought so, too ;) He works on Stardew his whole game development career. It is difficult to stop trying to improve the game and let your baby go after so long.

You can revert everything they have changed. Depends on what you want to change, however.

You can redesign toolbars to however you want them to be from View > Toolbars. You can revert to the message list (the main area with messages) by displaying a message list header with View > Layouts > Message list header and opening the Message list display options at the top right of the message list header and selecting the list view.

Similarly, there are toggles for everything else. Just keep clicking until you get the desired look. Try searching on the internet when you do not know where to find some option.

I concur with you in that this is a great example on how to handle the situation in advance and prepare for when the situation is imminent. I really like the write-up and the @sunaurus@lemm.ee's stance on the matter. Prime example of a great instance administration, I think.

I fully agree. It is the reason I never had an account on Reddit, for example. I much prefer the small community that Lemmy is. I feel like that the conversations here are more real and people are willing to wait for a reply instead of immediately move to another topic.
