  • Would it be possible to dumb down a linux phone?

    Jump

  • That makes sense. On Ubuntu Touch (if you find a compatible device) you could just delete the apps you don't want and keep the rest.

    Two issues I can think of is updating the apps that you do keep without the app store - I'm not sure there's an easy way to do that. Maybe transfer the new package via cable or ssh (as you've also uninstalled the browser) and install it via the command line? The other issue could be uninstalling system apps. I haven't tried that myself, but I have heard of others doing it and breaking things.

  • You could do something like that with Ubuntu Touch, but why waste the battery life and money on a smart phone when you can do this with a feature phone?

  • Where do you discover new music?

    Jump
    • Blogs/sites like Pitchfork for internationally hyped releases
    • Smaller sites for more local content
    • I check local calendars for release parties or concerts
    • I talk with my colleagues.
    • I go directly to labels that I trust and check out all of their new releases
    • I stop by my local record stores and ask the staff for a couple of album recs
    • I use the search functions of Bandcamp and follow a bunch of bands there
    • Ditto for Soundcloud, where the reposts of independent artists are especially useful for discovering other bands and musicians.
    • Recommendations from Qobuz or Spotify
    • I have a couple of radio stations that I spend a few hours with each week, like fip.fr, local student radio, local insert political leanings radio

  • In your language, how do you describe butch and femme lesbians?

    Jump

  • Some people use it proudly about themselves, but if somebody who doesn't love and respect you use it about you, it can be an insult.

  • Bruker noen dette eller ikke?

    Jump

  • Ja, det er fint!

    Hvis du trenger et forum med mange norske så kanskje du kan søke det opp utenfor lemmy, basert på noe du er interessert i? Det er fortsatt ganske mange forum som driftes uavhengig av plattformer som lemmy og reddit. Har du hørt om 'Gaysir' for eksempel, for skeive? Eller 'Kvinneguiden', et stort forum der kvinner og andre diskuterer alt mellom himmel og jord?

  • Det er nok mange med norsk bakgrunn på Lemmy, men fordi alle kan engelsk, er det ikke så mye aktivitet i de norske foraene.

  • Jeg vet ikke hvor alle henger for tiden, men jeg abonnerer i alle fall på denne lemmyen!

  • Yoshihide Otomo, Bill Laswell, Yasuhiro Yoshigaki — Soup [2003, jazz fusion / improvisation]

    Jump

  • Oh my, how did I miss this. Thank you!

  • What are y'all reading this week? [27/2/26]

    Jump

  • Reading Lake of Darkness by Adam Roberts. I'm not that far in yet, but the world building is really fascinating. It seems like such a beautiful yet creepy future for human kind.

  • yup yup yup yup

    Jump

  • I hear these two guys while listening to the curling matches during the olympics. Yup yup yup!

  • Community feedback request regarding Rule 6: "No Politics"

    Jump

  • Keep the rule as it is, and take those kinds of discussions in communities meant for political discussion. There's already enough of US politics everywhere else.

  • Onebagging by train

    Jump

  • I guess I'll be traveling with a baggie of white stuff, then! I'll bring some from home, as well as a line for air drying. Thank you for the link, I had completely forgotten about inflatable hangers.

  • Onebagging by train

    Jump

  • We'll be traveling for between two and three weeks. This will be my longest trip with only a small ish backpack, but I have done a week before.

  • Onebagging by train

    Jump

  • I'm hoping to get by on around three to four days of clothes, but it would be fun to try no-bag sometime.

    Jump

  • I had no idea about the aquaplexes, that's so nice. I'll add wet wipes to my list. That seems like a very good comfort item with many possible use cases.

    Thank you also for reminding me about ticket validation in Italy. I need to make a list of dos and don'ts for each country.

    Jump

  • OH, bikes! That would be so much fun.

  • Thank you for all of your ideas! I will remember the ziploc bag. I've usually only done that for planes, but it is undoubtedly practical and less space consuming for other kinds of trips too.

    Luckily we already share most toiletries, but I'll suggest making a shared list and remove any duplicates.

  • Unlocking Samsung bootloader worth it?

    Jump

  • While your model may not be supported now, it may be in the future. I would join some of the communities that make custom roms and operating systems and lurk a bit to see if someone is doing a port to your phone and are near the stage where they need testers.

    Look at deGoogle guides to see what you can do to make your phone safer in the mean time. Every little bit can help you be more secure.

  • Is Linux Smartphones any good?

    Jump

  • The Waydroid container runs Lineage, a degoogled android based os. Many apps require Google play services to run, or they do other checks that fail in that environement. Most stuff from F-droid will run.

    Signal does not have a native UT app at the moment, but some use Matrix bridges to send and receive messages. Others run it in Waydroid, or do experiments with the cli version. The first works very well, but you need to find/make a bridge host that you trust.

    Oh, it feels very nice to use! Most of my troubles these days stem from me experimenting and running the devel version of the os. I can go days between serious issues, and the issues that do appear are never deal breakers as they don't tend to affect basic phone functionality. It feels great and it is way too much fun.
