I found it in the F-Droid app, although it looks like at the moment it’s just in the IzzyOnDroid repo. I’m not up to speed on the ideological differences between the repos, but I know many apps are available on both and IzzyOnDroid is often a little quicker to add apps. It just showed up there this month, so who knows?

Yes, you can use your own image/s if you choose.

It was a really excellent keyboard.

Most launchers have an adjustment period, so it’s not just you. Some are more customizable than others and some are build around a more rigid design philosophy.

You might also want to have a look at Lawnchair, which is designed to be a more “stock” experience, but with some additional customizations.

I’ve been using Kvaesisto as my daily, which is a nice hybrid of the drawer-style launchers and search-based launchers. It’s coded from the ground up, has an impressive number of integrations, themed widgets that slide out of sight, etc.

KISS launcher is the original and still the best of the search based launchers. Okay, I have no idea if it is really the original, but it’s been around for over a decade now, and still has an active development community. It’s been forked hundreds of times into similar projects which add some additional features, but if you want a minimal launcher that gets out of your way, then this is what you’re looking for.

A similar, minimal style launcher is OLauncher, which has also been around for a few years and has been forked like crazy.

One of the best traditional drawer-style launchers is Lawnchair, which has sprung back to life after a hiatus from updating. It’s built on the Android launcher, with lots of additional customizations.

I don’t know of any current project that approaches the maximal customization philosophy of Nova Launcher. It was really one of a kind. All of the above are FOSS, but even in the closed software space, I don’t think there is anything like Nova.

Also, you will need to do some preprocessing of your files before importing to immich. Something like this to fix the metadata. I can’t remember which one I used, because there are a few out there.

Well, you won’t like it. If you have very fast internet and a managed downloader, then you may be able to get all of the files. Google seems to throttle the speeds to make large takeouts almost impossible to download in the limited time allowed.

For this size of download, your best option is to get a subscription to a compatible service (Dropbox, etc.) To transfer the files, which will happen much more quickly than downloading yourself. Then download the files from that service at your leisure, and then cancel the service.

It’s pretty backwards, but it’s really the best option for large takeouts (over 5 gigs or so).

Seems outdated. Maybe submit an update if it is bothering you. That’s the beauty of community led software.

Fixed! Sorry about that.

It is definitely worth a shot for anyone looking for this type of app! It is really great.

I personally did not find KDE connect on Windows to be a good solution for me. I had a lot of connection instability, high battery usage, and lack of additional features.

KDE Connect does have some neat features like connecting via bluetooth, or using your phone as a remote mouse/keyboard. Those are not relevant to me, but could be just what someone is looking for.

Huh, odd. I’m using it on Firefox and no issues whatsoever. I don’t have chrome on any device.

Where does it say it’s dependent on Chrome?

I’ve found radicale more stable in my implementation, but both are very good and are pretty similar to use.

If you already have NextCloud/OwnCloud it would be a good to use the Calendar that is already built in, but it doesn’t make sense to install those for a calendar when there are better options available.

I set up mine through docker and it works great. I’ve switched from other CalDAV / CardDAV hosts and it really is the most stable and reliable.

I use a third party VPN without any issues (USA)

Wow, comes with container tabs out of the box. That’s one of the most requested features for Firefox mobile.

One last comment on your edit: Tempo is great, and I used that as well, plus it’s open source. The symfonium dev is actually pretty cool about helping you work around Google if you want to buy it another way, but it has to be activated manually by the dev on each device. I just didn’t want the hassle.

I’d probably go with Tempo if I were still using navidrome since it’s open source.

I did this for a while, and only switched back to Jellyfin/Finamp while degoogling (needed for paid version). I thought it was definitely worth it while I was using it. I also listen to music on the TV and Jellyfin handles it better than other options I tried (including side-loading symfonium).

I currently use a separate music library manager on my server to organize my music collection, then Jellyfin just does the server work.

I think you’ll be very happy with the setup you are using.

I started off with calibre-web and Kavita, but transitioned to calibre-web only. I found that I have a lot of weird formats for comic books that are not handled well by regular comics hosting. If you have everything in standard CBR formats (etc), then you should have no issues.

I found Kavita and komga basically equivalent, but some people have said it makes a difference for manga series.

Calibre-web-automated is a different project with more features and more active development. I’d probably choose that if I were setting it up today.

This is a great platform, especially if you are just beginning in self-hosting. I don’t use it on my deployment “version 2.0” because I found it unnecessary once learning a little more about docker, etc. While I was using it, I loved it, and would definitely recommend it!

Great! Absolutely great app, and already perfect for me, but it’s always nice to have options.
