overview for Megaf

That's quite amazing, for CPU it's not a 386, not a 286 even, it's a 80186! At 7.9Mhz and up to 4 MB of RAM, indeed it could run win 3.0 quite well.

Problem was the display.

Oh, and it has a numeric keypad!

So, how do we think this ends? in c/[email protected]

I agree that it does work, and very well. It just needs some work on the responsive design I think, and maybe aesthetics. But that's just a subjective opinion, not really an issue I might give it a go myself at it when I have some time and maybe I send a PR or two.

Shade Launcher. It's a bare bones Open Source launcher, while having a traditional look.

Pasting images in Flatpak applications, what permissions are needed? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I'm actually having issues pasting images on WhatsApp web on regular Firefox. That might be a thing with WhatsApp itself.

About the permissions, if you are pasting an image that is in your computer, then the app needs to be able to read the file from the computer, aka read the file from disk.

Would you care to give Mastodon a try now?

How many plan to stay on lemmy post blackout? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Well, I've been here since before the blackout. I've been following the Fediverse for a while, registered on Diaspora, Mastodon and others.

The only reason I wasn't really using Lemmy much, or at all, is because there were not many people to interact with. But look at it now!

I have indeed already left Twitter for good, using only Fosstodon, I might as well leave Reddit for good.

I can actually see plenty of people and communities permanently migrating over to Lemmy instances. Some are actually creating their very own federated Lemmy instances.

So now, for those who created their own instances, there will be no more censoring and imposing from a higher organization.

I don't see why to not use Fediverse, Mastodon apps are great already, and Lemmy apps are getting updated and improved as we speak.

Yes, the web front-end still needs work, and yes, Lemmy still lacks in some features, but that is being worked on as we speak, and I believe that some of the users migrating over, are devs, that will actually help to improve Lemmy, which is Open Source. So, if there's a feature you'd like Lemmy to have, just open a Pull Request!
