Androids can generate a qr code as well. I guess it’s the same result but non-tech people can use it. This would be cool if it was part of KDE/GNOME or a somewhat standalone app.
I assume the webapp runs locally, right? ianharris.io/wifi-qr-web/ if so, it would be nice to have it stated somewhere that it’s save to use (although you should probably not use a website for such things as the info is too valuable.
It’s just an app like any other. No special treatment
You can use a work profile but don’t have to. Grapheneos’ team don’t support fdroid or aurora store, hence they propose installing everything via play store.
I can’t find the source right now. It’s about the whole app installation process. They prefer play store. Aurora store isn’t enough. I guess fdroid isn’t good because fdroid signs every apk. Haven’t read it in a while. Iirc, their stance was that every app should have its own updater.
Update: i found a source
Official grapheneos account:
GrapheneOS includes our own app repository client which provides a way to install the sandboxed Play Store. There is no advice for this fitting everyone’s preferences because all of the available options other than our own app repository currently only used for our own apps have major flaws.
To me, a front end doesn’t make the thing open source.
My ibretranslate experience is unfortunately bad :( sometimes it works but most often I have to wait for a couple of seconds and then it doesn’t show the word or something wrong. Moreover, oftentimes there are multiple translations for a word and it only displays one.
As long as trash like mrbeast is watched by so many people, I have no hope that the broad public will use anything like what we want in the near future.
Usually, I try to find the problem. If I can’t find it after (half) an hour or so, I’ll reinstall. It’s not worth it for me. There’s no gain in being a pro at grub (for me). Luckily, since being on atomic fedora I’ve never had any grub issues.
I’ve got two internal SSDs, of which one is smaller (128) and one is bigger (1TB). How can I tell podman (or docker) to use another folder? Currently, it sits on the smaller drive which has less and less storage.

the “ads” aren’t shoved up your ass. It’s not bad.
their customer service helped me a couple of times. (And a couple of times they didn’t)
they have a dedicated site for feature requests. Yet, they still choose what they implement and don’t comunicate it perfectly. They’re still a company. They do it better thab most others.
they don’t artificially limit the features on ine os, because it’s not yet implemented on all. That’s actually a good thing, not a bad one.
on linux it’s incredibly easy to add a vpn. No idea why we scream for an app.
VideoLAN @videolan App Stores were a mistake. Currently, we cannot update VLC on Windows Store, and we cannot update VLC on Android Play Store, without reducing security or dropping a lot of users… For now, iOS App Store still allows us to ship for iOS9, but until when?
Traditionally Fdroid signs every app. Not with the developers key. The future are reproducible builds. f-droid.org/…/towards-a-reproducible-fdroid.html this is a futuristic app store, not what google has.
With Play App Signing, Google manages and protects your app’s signing key for you and uses it to sign optimized, distribution APKs that are generated from your app bundles
You can use google’s play app signing. It’s not mandatory.
