@slavistapl @kuba I've successfully done that with a phone and a tablet, so I don't see why two phones wouldn't work

@aral @Mer__edith not sure about iOS, but on Android the content of Signal messages doesn't go through Google's servers.

hopefully that'll still push them to look into alternative options like ntfy.

@kuba the Yas Queen's Gambit

@kuba mnie najbardziej wkurza ten ich słitaśny marketing. dzień dobry to ja, Twoja paczuszka, z pewnych źródeł wiem że nie oglądam się za siebie uwu

@arek @michal wliczają się w to boosty

@kuba Kamil Pawlicki czekał całą swoją karierę aż ktoś zada mu to pytanie

AntennaPod https://www.f-droid.org/packages/de.danoeh.antennapod/

one of the most robust podcast players. I'm not much of a podcast listener, but whenever I feel like pulling something from my tiny (show-wise) huge (episode-wise) backlog, this is the one I fire up. they've been around since forever and only continue to improve.

they've also got a Fediverse account, so make sure to give them some love! @AntennaPod

Obtainium https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/dev.imranr.obtainium

lets you get apps directly from their GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg sites instead of F-droid repos. it doesn't work with all projects, which is why I keep both it and Droid-ify, but it's often a faster way of getting an update since it can take a few days for F-droid to make updates available, and I'm a spoiled milennial and need shiny new stuff RIGHT NOW

if you look closely at the URL, you can see it's available on the aforementioned IzzyOnDroid repo.

what this thread is going to be:
- F-droid goodies that I use on a daily basis! free stuff! privacy-friendly! no ads! with a toot-long review!

what this thread is NOT going to be:
- explaining what F-droid or FOSS is and why you should bother, because people much smarter than me have done that in the past many times.
- me explaining why I use app A instead of app B that you like better. good for you! you can make your own list, you've got the power! toot them toots!

starting off with two of my favourite ways of getting the apps and keeping them updated:
Droid-ify (https://www.f-droid.org/packages/com.looker.droidify/) is a much more pleasant looking F-droid client than the official one. it comes with several third party repositories ready to enable, including one maintained by the one and only @IzzyOnDroid , which serves many apps that either haven't made it to the official repository yet, or ones that don't completely fulfill F-droid's strict requirements.

okay, it's a slow part of my 24 h shift, so it's finally time to make a thread about the #FOSS apps that I use on my phone, most of them obtainable through @fdroidorg . I've trawled through its repositories many times over years, and managed to find a bunch of great software fitting my needs, so hopefully someone finds this useful as well.

@rzeczyspisane chyba w końcu muszę zrobić nitkę ze swoimi poleceniami i podpiąć w profilu. przekopałem się przez tony aplikacji na F-droid i korzystam z mnóstwa, ale ciągle mi się nie chce tego wszystkiego udokumentowywać ^^'

@kuba w każdych czasach było malo customowych dzwonków, Nokia Tune w 2009 rozbrzmiewało na świecie 20000 razy na sekundę https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_tune

a mój customowy dzwonek to od roku wibracja Mi Banda z Gadgetbridgem i sobie go bardzo chwałę

@kuba no i bobem a prawdą, marimby i skrzypce bywają irytujące, ale i tak wolę niż "HALO TO JA, TWÓJ TELEFON, JA PIERDZĘ PRBBBBBBBBBT"

@kuba nie korzystam z Tindera, ale jeśli ktoś zaznacza "gdy piję" zamiast zwyczajne "tak, palę", to logika nakazuje mi wnioskować, że ma na myśli rzadziej niż regularnie - zwłaszcza że z doświadczenia znani mi są tacy ludzie, więc nie jest to dla mnie obce zjawisko.

a poza tym nie ma tam też przypadkiem rubryki z piciem, żeby poskładać sobie fakty?
