      I’d love to use it especially since Android Auto is working on it, too. The only thing holding me back is not being able to pay with my phone. I’m currently only having my phone and keys with me. So it’s extra convenient to not have to take my wallet with me.

      But to be fair the devs can’t make anything against that restriction as of now. I still wish there would be some way to be able to pay contactless using your card with GrapheneOS.

        I’m in the exact same boat. If someone figures out how to get tap-to-pay working on graphene, I’ll be daily driving it so fast.

    xpra: it is like tmux but for X windows (works on wayland), but it can do much more than that. You can seamlessly run GUI programs from a container or VM on your main desktop while still sandboxing their X capabilities, forward windows from Windows desktops, and it has efficient encoding so it is usable over poor connections as well.

    LocalSend, a cross platform alternative to airdrop and nearby share.

    My family uses it for almost all of our filesharing. IPhone to android, iPhone to windows PC, android to macbook, etc. Its works really, really well.

    Shutter encoder, it has a ton of useful tools built in for quick video conversion, compression, trimming, etc, and it works very well for batch encoding of a lot of different video files

    Affine, its a surprisingly feature rich notes app (open source but all cloud features are currently paid)

    KopiaUI, an easy to use automatic backup program

    TrailSense, an easy to use, comprehensive wilderness tool.

    The goals of the developer are fun to consider:

    Goals

    • Trail Sense must not use the Internet in any way, as I want the entire app usable when there is no Internet connection

    • Features must provide some benefits to people using the app while hiking, in a survival situation, etc.

    • Features should make use of the sensors on a phone rather than relying on stored information such as guides

    • Features must be based on peer-reviewed science or be verified against real world data

    Likewise, the features being developed under those goals are great for getting outside:

    Features

    • Designed for hiking, backpacking, camping, and geocaching
    • Place beacons and navigate to them
    • Follow paths
    • Retrace your steps with backtrack
    • Use a photo as a map
    • Plan what to pack
    • Be alerted before the sun sets
    • Predict the weather
    • Use your phone as a flashlight

    KDEConnect - I use it on Windows and android phone. Very nice when you get security codes or links on phone, want to send files or when I want to control audio|video and I watch from the couch.

    in general: Freedroid nearly always has a os, more feature rich and performant alternative

    • Thumb-Key — A flick keyboard for mobile phones; a FOSS alternative to MessagEase created by Lemmy’s own Dessalines. It’s not perfect, neither was MessagEase, but for what it is it’s pretty damn good and definitely beats using a mobile QWERTY keyboard.
    • Ibis — A federated wiki created by Lemmy’s own Nutomic. It’s currently pretty barebones with little activity, but I’d like to see more interest in the project so that it can grow and improve. I think it has a lot of potential.

      I’ve been slowly trying thumbkey but seem to be struggling to get to the point where I feel comfortable using it over qwerty. I love the concept as I also hate using qwerty… Yet I still seem more accurate using the crutch of autocorrect. With thumbkey I have to go back and correct more than I thought I would. I can kinda touch-type at a decent rate now but I definitely need more practice.

      All of this is to ask: is there a point where I will be so comfortable as to not need to fear misspelling something without this crutch of autocorrect?

          The key just to the left of the # key, i.e. the A key in the default Thumb-Key layout, should have a ▲ for the upward swipe. That swipe is how you get into shift mode. Swipe up on that key again to enter caps-lock; swipe down on that key to release the shift/caps-lock.

        I can’t speak for how long it will take you specifically, but yeah, I absolutely think you can get to that point. I don’t really remember how long it took me to learn, but it couldn’t have been more than a few weeks, and I think I had some factors which were working to my advantage, anyways. Have you adjusted any of the settings?
