I've shared a lot of exciting news about Jellyfin 10.9. Today is a bit different as this announcement affects all Jellyfin versions:
The @jellyfin#WebOS app is now available on all WebOS versions, for everyone! No more sideloading, just open up the LG Content Store and install #jellyfin!
Nobody talks about how the term #webOS often makes Spanish speakers laugh because it reads as “huevos” (= eggs, which is informally used to refer to balls 😁).
It's both weird and sad to me that some of the easiest phones to degoogle are Google branded phones. Why aren't more mobiles just plain open?! I did like my Pixel2, but I generally flip flop between Android and iOS. It's now time for Android again, and I picked up a nice #thinkphone and am annoyed at how much on here I just can't remove. It'd be nice to just run one of the many choices out there such as #lineageos, #postmarketos , Mobian, or #droidian. I miss #luneos#webos and #sailfishos .
@arstechnica so it only took the rest of the world 15 years to catch up to the best phone (and OS) there ever was, the #PalmPre
The UX of the #Touchstone charger was just perfection!
Other things is just messing around with old tech, currently I'm messing with #webOS (pre-LG). I've been fascinated with the platform since I was a kid and now that I got my hands on one I gotta say it has lived up to expectations even 13 years later.
#Palm#WebOS, at the time it was developed mainly for smartphones, had this rather simple approach of “give me your logins, I’ll build a unified local stream of all your interactions on social networks” and I sometimes think it’s time to bring that concept back. #activitypub but with translators/connectors where needed. #Serverless. Locally on your device.
I hear a lot of people complaining about the prevalence of Electron. I get it, but at the same time, what's the alternative, especially for Linux?
Few companies are going to develop a desktop application for Linux. They want write once, run everywhere. So what are the options? .NET? Java? Please no. Qt? Licensing nightmare.
If not electron what you're probably going to get is a Windows only binary. I too would prefer a native binary but it's usually not realistic.
