This song makes me nostalgic for a reality I never got to experience - slow paced American countryside.

Today I found out that it's actually a lot easier to contribute to Open Street Map than I thought. There are some serious gaps in house addresses in my area and I was painstakingly using the built in browser editor in the browser.

But, you can use a FOSS app (available on fdroid) called StreetComplete that makes it a lot easier to help out filling in the gaps in your local map data.

It's really fun - kind of like Pokémon Go but you are actually making an impact 😁

When I was looking to replace my google tools, I couldn't find an easy to to alternative Google Photos. Things that were suggested like immich or Synology or ente required some level of technical know how or dedicated hardware. I ended up buying a Synology drive but I have issues with loading images/videos (it's extremely slow).

Today I stumbled upon https://stingle.org/

I haven't used it yet, but it looks like it might be a good option for anyone wanting to degooglify, but without all the extra fuffing around.

It also has a F-Droid distro!

Pricing starts at 1gb for free or 100gb for three bucks

If anyone get's a chance, let me know if it's really that good.

Is anybody interested in making something on this canvas thing?

Never participated in r/places, figured I might give it a go

Only writing here because it seems to be GrapheneOS related, not app specifically, and I'm not award of other community dealing with this software.

I currently have OpenBoard with two languages installed- English and my native. My issue happens no matter if I have open board or GrapheneOS stock keyboard setup.

When I'm trying to erase the first two letters of a word I'm currently working on, it will then highlight the whole word + the space before it. Any change I will make from now on, will delete that space and will merge these two words together. It only happens if I already finished working on this word and I'm going back to fix this.

Video attached below to maybe better explain the issue. Any help greatly appreciated

I recently acquired a second hand DS216j with 6TB (SHR1 so only 3TB is usable). I moved all my Google Photos images and videos onto it, but now when I access it through QuickConnect it loads them really slow, the videos are constantly buffering and when they load they have a messed up framerate (really jittery). I have a 500 fibre connection and the station is connected to the router through an ethernet cable. Any idea how I could possibly fix this? Thanks

So I'm looking to disconnect myself from Google and their tracking (as much as possible) and I was thinking about installing GrapheneOS on my Pixel phone. I mostly use my phone for Lemmy, Signal, NewPipe and taking photos. The last one is my biggest bother at the moment. The Google Photos environment is so convenient - I take a photo, it uploads it to my Google Photos collection, and after a while, it deletes it from my phone to clear space, keeping only the cloud backup. Is there a functionality like this disconnected from Google that I would be able to implement on my GrapheneOS phone? I'm looking to invest in the Proton environment (mainly Mail and Drive) so I could use that for storage. Cheers
