Regarding SFTP. You can have the server on the PC or the phone. It's up to you which fit's better your needs. Having the server on the PC is more common. Then you can use any file manager to get the needed files from your server/PC. You can also use USB, Samba or other services, but at least here SFTP is the fastest variant.

Media Monkey uses SQLite as database. I have used Media monkey to, before I switched to Linux. So I extracted the last played timestamp and play count with a simple SQL select and migrated this info to strawberry, which uses also SQLite. But be aware that both stores the date in an incompatible way. It's not that easy to spot in Media monkey database.

You can also use a Windows program like Media Monkey or Musicbee on Linux through Wine. So you don't have to migrate your database. Syncing will work for both with Media Monkey and Musicbee.

My music workflow is the following: I'm using dynamic playlists based on last played timestamp. If a song was played, it gets a new timestamp and is removed from the playlist. Now a new song comes automatically in to the playlist where the timestamp doesn't exist or is older as x-days. That's easy to setup on strawberry and other applications. This playlist will be synced via whatever you want to your phone. In my case a SFTP service to keep it wireless. On the phone I use the same playlist with every player you want. Additional I'm using lastfm to scrobble the played music. This keeps the last played timestamp on the phone and can be synced with strawberry. I don't know if other applicants can do the same.

Sounds complicated at first but after initial setup it's a automatic process.

Can this client automatically update the installed apps? What advantages does the client have in detail compared to the standard F-Droid client?

Since a lot of API's are missing on Android and others have unresolved bugs since age's, it's no wonder that Extension developers are total unmotivated to bring more effort to migrate their extensions to the Android platform.

I have installed only some small extensions, but all of them are working after the update. But I have not much of them installed.

What's new in Gnome 45?

[–] laskobar@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Does this one has a RX 7700S as graphics solution? If yes, I would really love to hear how good it is going. From what I have read so far, this looks like the graphic card to go at the moment.

Currently I'm using a Nvidia 1060 but it's not that good.

Can you please update here, if you got your new toy?

Got it fixed. It was a broken mod.

Please don't laugh, this probably doesn't really fall into that category, but I wanted to keep it simple: Ark - Survival Evolved, Counter Strike but also games like Space Engineers. Ark causes relatively few problems. Space Engineers, on the other hand, does. Unlike Ark, it currently runs with very few FPS and often crashes or doesn't start at all. In general, I play more when I have time in the evening for 1 or 2 hours, comfortably on the sofa. So the laptop is more suitable.

Feel free to try it by yourself. Nothing easier than that. Reboot your phone and try to find it via Find My Device or ring it, without to enter your password before. It will not work.

BTW: it doesn't make sense to exclude security and privacy related things from encryption. Otherwise there would be an unusually high risk to compromise this sort of data.

Find My Device is completely useless until the device is unlocked. As long as it is rebooted and not unlocked, there is no way to detect its location. Since most phones (if not all), use an encrypted filesystem. With such, no service can't start if the device isn't initially unlocked after reboot, including Find my device.

This isn't only a issue with Google's implementation, it's the same with other implementations to.
