You can draw Amoonguss using 4 penises (number 4 is upside down making his face)

I agree with your hands and feeds suggestion. I'll also suggest starting the skirt folds from the center and then going to the sides instead of all going right.

Try fluffychat is more user friendly and with better ui than elements. I used the "every image can be a sticker" feature to move people to matrix.

Yes, it also let you change your DNS and block websites. There's also invizible pro which also adds tor and i2p but rethink have a better UI.

I used this many years ago, but their privacy policy was awful. I checked it before posting and it's way better now but it's still not the best, from their Privacy page

"We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. However, we may share your information with trusted third-party service providers"

Use mixplorer if you are going to use a close source file manager, is more private with more features.

I haven't found a perfect Foss file explorer, so I use 2, material files and ghost commander.

Material files

Pros:

It shows the disks sizes

Can deal with compressed files (zip, 7zip, tar)

Multiple windows support

Cons:

You need to reset the app to update disk size and to show new ones

Images are cropped

Multiple windows are worst and not as intuitive as multiple panels

It have issues when trying to open files with other apps, particularly librera.

Ghost Commander

Pros:

Many personalization options

Dual panel

Light weight and fast

Cons:

Can't deal with 7zip files

It's only view mode is list view

Don't show disks available space

One Foss app many people don't know about that is worth mentioning is

Index which try to bring a linux desktop file manager to android.

Are those part of the fediverse? I've used matrix in the past, but have no experience with xmpp or irc I don't want to scare them with something complicate.

 

I'm working on a project that needs a similar approach to slack or discord. I know about matrix, but the person I'm working with said to be open to use a fediverse alternate when I tell them I didn't want to use slack. I mention matrix and the fediverse as an alternative and they asked me a good fediverse option.

It's needs to be good for team collaboration, easy to set and be able to maintain original images quality.

The current best option is Firefox Beta with about:config

Other options are iceraven which is normally several updates behind and the Iodé browser, which is up to date but I don't know much about it to blindfully use it to replace Mull, this is the Fdroid repo link

Hopefully some options show up before the next Firefox update.

 

I use Fennec as my default android browser, but since it updated to 127.0.0 the Dark Reader extension has been broken. Some sites like github are in light mode by default, when I checked Dark Reader's option a message saying that dark theme is detected on the page, but the page is in light mode. Other pages like Brave search are also on light mode but the message, now said something about the site been on a global dark list (I don't know what that means but it's blinding me) this aren't the only websites with this issue by the way, so every time I browse the internet is like playing russian roulette with my eyes, not knowing when is going to be dark or light. Tried Mull but is the same problem.

Tried to change to Midnight Lizard and Dark Background and Light Text but neither work as smoothly as Dark Reader used to work.

 

I've been wanting to move from Mixplorer to Ghost Commander for a while now, but whenever I move an image, then it stops showing on Aves (fdroid) and whenever I move an audio file then the same happens with vinyl.

This files are still on my device, and Vlc and Fossify gallery can still interact with them, but not Aves, nor Vinyl.

Does someone know how to fix this?

All I want to do is move to Ghost Commander, I don't want to change my gallery or music app.

Is there any open source file manager not avalaible on Fdroid?

I've tried them all and Ghost files seems to be the one that can best fulfill my needs.
