I wasn’t using hyperbole and I specifically added this at the end:

(at least nothing you can see)

I know that it’s installing but as a user, I don’t really see anything happen or any indication of the progress. I just have to wait for some amount of time without any idea of how long I will have to wait. That makes it feel so long.

And don’t call me an idiot for doing something I never did. I don’t even know what you misinterpreted. This whole post is about how the time it takes to install an app was reduced and I shared my own experience to show why I think that’s a very good change. In response, you told me that an app has to be installed after downloading it. I never said that that wasn’t the case, so I didn’t understand what point you were trying to make, which is why I asked you.

Yes, I know but why are you telling me that?

I just said it’s annoying and making that waiting time shorter is a good change

I know, what’s your point?

It’s honestly pretty annoying when you have to update an app and after it’s done downloading, you just sit there for like 10 seconds while nothing happens (at least nothing you can see)

Downtime in this context means the time where you can’t use the application while its update is being installed

They’re the exact opposite of a fascist…

But those are just for music, that’s why I didn’t list them. I assume most people use Jellyfin (or Plex) for video content.

Speaking of third party apps, here’s some recommendations:

Android: Findroid
Works absolutely great, it’s very rare that I even find a bug.

iOS: Swiftfin
I don’t use iOS but this is the one I installed on my friend’s phones.

Linux (and maybe Windows): Delfin
This is a GTK 4 app for Linux and maybe it has a Windows build too but I didn’t check. It’s not perfect, there’s bugs here and there but it mostly works fine. The developer isn’t very active (which is understandable), so it would be nice if someone, who has the time for it, would help out.

Here’s also the official page with Jellyfin clients: https://jellyfin.org/downloads/clients/all
It doesn’t seem to include Delfin though.

VR on linux actually works just fine from my experience. I’ve never had a game not work. The big issue is just headset support. The HTC Vive and Valve Index are the only headsets with official drivers, since they were made by Valve. Standalone headsets, like the Quest for example, also work using ALVR. Anything else doesn’t really work. There are open source drivers but they’re not complete enough to be useable unless something majorly changed there since I last checked.

Can confirm that yt-dlp works perfectly for TikTok videos

Thank you for telling me about Podlet. I’ve been using podman-compose for all my containers but I’ve thought about converting them to systemd units. The only thing I’m unsure about is whether it’ll still be easy to access the container files. Currently I have a containers folder with a folder for each service inside it. Inside that, there’s the compose.yml and the folders with the container data. I map all container folders, with data that needs to be kept, to a folder that sits right next to the compose file. If it’s just temporary data (like caches), I oftentimes map it to a volume because it doesn’t matter if I lose it. Do you know if I can still do it like this (or in a similar way) if I use systemd units?

I don’t really know what you mean by checking. I’m pretty sure you can import from there but I haven’t used that yet anyway because not a single food I’ve looked up there has had enough data for it to be usable for me and a lot haven’t been added at all. Might be because I’m in Germany tho.

Edit: I’ve actually imported a product that did have all the information and it worked perfectly fine. You just share the link from OpenFoodFacts to Food You. Only monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats didn’t import but I’ve already opened and issue for that and it’ll be fixed in version 3.

Food You is the one I use. Looks like they’re pretty similar tho, at least from the screenshots.

I use podman too and I set up hardware acceleration for Jellyfin. I’ll update this with how I did it once I’m home.

Edit: Here’s my compose.yml (I use podman-compose):

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
    container_name: jellyfin
    dns:

OSM does have speed trap warnings but someone would have had to add the speed trap for it to work. Organic Maps (or rather CoMaps, which I now use) shows me when there’s a spred trap.

yt-dlp supports a ton of sites (not just youtube). It’s a command line program but there’s a lot of different GUI frontends, like Seal (Android) or Parabolic (Linux and Windows).

I don’t know if it supports the site you wanna use (someone else already said that 9anime was shut down, so the site you’re using is likely a fake and you should use another one) but there’s this list of supported sites.

Have you tried just removing German and rebooting your phone? I really can’t think of any reason why this would be happening, so this is the only possible fix I can think of.

That’s really weird. I have it set up the same way, English (US) as the first language and German as the second and I’ve never had that problem. But maybe I could download one of the apps where that happens for you and see if it’s the same on my device.

On GNOME you set the GTK theme using Tweaks or Refine (Tweaks is preinstalled most of the time but Refine is a newer replacement that’s a lot nicer to use). Using one of these two will probably work on any other desktop or WM too.
