The specific font isn’t as important for me. Mostly I’ll use whatever sans serif option is available in the reader, since I generally despise serifs. Very occasionally I’ll go for a serif font on a fantasy book for “atmosphere”, though.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What’s a graphical piece of software you wish existed or was better?English
3·6 days agoCan’t you already do that from Nautilus with bookmarked sftp locations?
I’m not commenting to discourage other tools from being made, just curious if there’s some aspect of that process that isn’t already easy to accomplish on Linux with existing GUI tools, or if you’d like to be able to do it differently is all.

Linux@lemmy.ml•[Answered] Video players that look like IINA, or can?English
2·7 days agoThanks, yeah I think so. At least, I’ve followed all the steps outlined here https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/Multimedia but VLC and gstreamer apps continue to tell me that I’m missing codecs. I am stumped, but happy that at least Jellyfin plays everything.

Linux@lemmy.ml•[Answered] Video players that look like IINA, or can?English
5·8 days agoI somehow keep running across videos that won’t load in Clapper, Showtime, mpv, VLC, or Handbrake, and Nautilus won’t show thumbnails for them. It’s very frustrating. Supposedly I’ve already installed all the available codecs from RPMFusion, but still get the “codec missing” error on a bunch of videos.
Jellyfin on the other hand, it plays everything I’ve ever thrown at it. I don’t know what the hell it’s doing differently from the other video players on my system, but it works great.

Incompatible with every website in which browser? It works for years in both Chrome and Firefox. Is this a meme for Safari users only?
The fact that Google invented this format is the most annoying thing about webp, but the complaints in this image haven’t been an issue for a very long time in my experience.
Aha oops I edited at the same time as your reply! Thanks for the elaboration, that’s helpful!
What does “ssd” mean in this context? I’m guessing it’s not solid state drive since that doesn’t make any sense in these sentences, but searching that acronym isn’t very helpful.
Edit: I guess it means “server side decorations”. I see that OP did use the full phrase once, but it didn’t click with me initially. Wikipedia says that means the window manager draws titlebar buttons, as opposed to client side decorations which enables the app developer to control the titlebar of their app.
This sounds like a perfect use-case for setting Junction as your default “browser”: https://flathub.org/en/apps/re.sonny.Junction
It shows a dialog when you open a URL, allowing you to specify which browser you want to use each time.

In theory, you could then open links in your host OS browser usually, but still be able to select the VM browser easily sometimes.
GNOME does this by default, so if it’s not working for your SO, they probably have installed some extension that modifies that behavior. I’ve never used Mint, but I think it’s pretty heavily modified from base GNOME, so maybe it has that feature disabled with whatever their suite of modifications does. I’d poke around in the panel settings if those are exposed to you in Mint.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why do atomic distros not contain good backup tooling by default?English
1·5 months agoThere are plenty of Americans who don’t speak English as a primary language, but you might be correct that they are simply not being diligent with their proofreading.
Either way, they’re perfectly understandable IMO, but it’s also valid to be frustrated with someone writing differently. I still don’t think it’s constructive to chastise them for it.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why do atomic distros not contain good backup tooling by default?English
9·5 months agoBased on their post history, I strongly suspect the OP has English as a non-primary language. They are doing fine, their posts are perfectly understandable. There’s no value in harassing them about that.
Also, Plex email blasted a few weeks ago about how nobody can share their libraries anymore without paying for a subscription. That was the push I needed to check out Jellyfin again, and the experience ranges from “good enough” to “that’s better than Plex” for me and my buddies.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Postiz (v1.58.0) - Open-source social media scheduling tool (new editor)English
41·6 months agoThis seems like a really nice tool, congrats!
Too bad there is so much focus on AI though. The UI looks nice, and templating and being able to schedule posts would be super handy, but I don’t need an AI to write things for me. I find that using AI is ethically icky anyhow; I’d rather not have it in any of the tools I use.
Is it possible to disable all the AI features when using Postiz? Like, a boolean setting in the deployment configs would be great.
The phrase “for profit” is probably referring to the corporation’s structure. It isn’t related to whether the corporation is currently profitable.
Dunno if it would meet your needs, but I’ve been using Input Remapper for binding macros to various key presses and mouse buttons under Wayland. It does prompt for root access, but it’s a GUI. It supports any input method, as far as I can tell. It even supports my tablet.
I use it to bind stuff like
hold(key(BTN_LEFT).wait(100))to some button to repeatedly left click while I’m holding that button down.

Linux@lemmy.ml•[blog post] what it's like to live with as much foss software as possibleEnglish
11·6 months agoYour website is refreshingly simple and also manages to be unique looking. I like it!


I’m always confused by people saying that Vortex doesn’t work on Linux, when I’ve used it for years now on both my Fedora desktop and my Steam Deck. I didn’t even have to do anything outrageous to get it working. Install with Lutris like anything else made for Windows, press play, it works great.
Edit: Realized this sounded maybe judgmental, when I didn’t mean it to. Not trying to make anyone feel bad in any way. More like encouragement, because once you get over the hump of figuring out how to use tools like Lutris to run games, running Vortex is the same process.
