Trying out #Tokodon on the desktop, since I'm gradually shifting back to #KDE these days. So far it's...alright?
I've always loved the idea of a Fediverse client that integrates nicely with the desktop, while offering full access to whatever features that platform gives you. But, I'm hard pressed to find a client that does everything I want. 😅
hmmmm my beloved Tokodon cannot login in Flatpak version (packaged by Flathub) hmm... SSL error... actually not only mastodon.social got this issue, urusai.social, too, just a short video Tokodon alongside with logs
Gonna report this, since no-one reported it #Tokodon#Flatpak
I finally decided to get a proper second device to run #postmarketOS on, so I bought a Pixel 3A! Fully mainline and #PlasmaMobile is very fluent on it, it's great!
I'll keep my sim-card in my Android phone for now but I'll use it to browse the fediverse (#Tokodon), watch YouTube (#Plasmatube), browse the web (#Angelfish), chat on Matrix (#Neochat), etc. I'll probably find a ton of bugs, so let's get these reported and fixed!
I gave KDE Plasma Mobile another go. It improved a LOT over the past few months. No crashes yet! It's a lot more stable now. Although not as stable as Phosh.
I like their whole "just copy Android" philosophy. Everything feels familiar and intuitive. I might keep it like this.
I have recently taken interest in reviving old tech, which people have stopped using but the hardware of devices is still pretty much working fine.
Recently revived a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8 (2015) which was last running Android 7. Hardware of the device has no issues. Found out a build of #postmarketOS and installed it. And now it has Linux kernel 6.6 and Plasma Mobile running well enough to be used to read RSS feeds, listen to music and browse the web. Even to toot with #tokodon
And … it’s live! With @3dEyes pushes for the #KDE frameworks up to latest 5.115.0, I’ve pushed #Tokodon 23.08.5 to #haikuports and builds have finished for 32bit and 64bit, for those using a mastodon client you can now install this on #HaikuOS.
One sidenote (haven’t been able to fix it, but can live with it for now), on 32bit it crashes when you close it down.
Thanks also to @carlschwan for this nice peace of software!
With @3dEyes new pushes to #haikuports to bring up our #KDE frameworks up to 5.115.0 I was able to build latest #Tokodon for KF5 on #HaikuOS 32bit (posting this from the install). :)
So i finally switched to #wayland on #manjaro with #nvidia 545.29.06 and it is the first time it worked for me... i have some issues like vivaldi flickering like hell randomly.
Since i run #mastodon in vivaldi (because reasons) I am giving #tokodon as desktop client a try.
While it has some nice features i would like something more like the deck-layout with multiple columns, be able to search who you want to mention while writing and having a way to create threads. Any #fedihints for that?
@ActionRetro Thanks for your nice reports on #HaikuOS! As one of the #haikuports team members I'm blessed here to have a nice HP Ryzen7 laptop running Haiku as my daily driver, this is also used to build and checkout new ports (including this #Tokodon from #KDE ) :)
New one (on the way?) for #HaikuOS, @LabPlot2 (with #KDE frameworks 5.112.0 and #Qt5), also did on earlier with #KDE frameworks 5.248.0 and #Qt6, patch (first one for me on KDE) is upstream waiting in a PR. :)
@santiago I am posting this from witthin #Tokodon 23.08.4, I've got a PR/MR up at #haikuports, but getting crashes when I build/launch this on the other installs I've tried out so far, so it's not available in the depot yet.
I've been exploring #Tokodon, as my desktop #Linux client for #Mastodon. I seem to have an issue where each of my accounts, I'm logged into 4 at the moment, are listed twice. Anyone else come across this?
