Rofi also has a wayland fork which I use rofi-lbonn-wayland. All of the previous rofi configs work fine with this.

Make a .desktop entry in .local/share/applications and any launcher will be able to launch it

Edit: You could also change their names to match your alias

Thanks, I will definitely try that

I think what you are looking for is a network share. You can browse files and download the ones you want

Then How is Google different? From my view, It also manipulates search results.

I don’t understand what US problem with China is.

Note: I am not an American nor a Chinese. I have never used tiktok before. I am just an outsider trying to get a perspective.

thequantumcog,

Yes, I know about that. But why is US limiting technological advancements in China? (By banning GPUs / companies).

I don’t see China doing the same.

I was not talking about censorship. I was talking about technological advancements.

But you have a fair point as this post is about censorship.

I was not talking about tiktok. I was talking about them banning sale of high performance gpus to china

In my country every platform is pushing some kind of bias from the government.Government can ask to remove any kind of content from YouTube, Facebook, tiktok, etc. Especially political ones.

I have seen YouTube favoring one party in particular in their breaking news section even on a new account.

On a sidenote, its good for tiktok to be banned, I hate short form content.

GSI are dominant now, device specific Roms are rare these days.

thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

Here you go: GSI List

thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

No, it’s not at least in my case. Actually GSI Lineage is a little bit faster due to less bloat than stock. But performance could be different for different devices.

Note: I experienced some bugs but all of them were easy to fix.

I am using Infinix X6831

thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, it’s an Asian brand. That’s why you have never heard of it.

thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

Even if your device is not listed, it is still supported. Every phone launched with Android 8 or greater support project treble. Thus, it also supports gsi.

  1. DSU works properly for Android 12 or greater.
  2. If fastboot works you don’t need twrp.
thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

Both N10 and N20 do not support DSU because they launched with the Android version less than Android 12. But you can still install GSI with the traditional method. Check you VNDk version with this app and I can tell you which gsi’s are supported by your device.

which launcher would you suggest and why?

so I finally got the motivation to install lineage os to my phone after thinking about it like year. and now that I finally modified this phone I started thinking about ricing this phone a bit. I’m looking for a launcher that isn’t too minimalistic and with a decent amount of customization. kinda like kde bit you know…...

What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?

I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....

For this very reason, I have aliased rm -rf with trash-cli

thequantumcog, (edited )
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

Could be varoius reasons. Some common ones:

  • distros can have different kernel parameters
  • unloaded kernel modules
  • different kernel parameters
  • older kernel/packages
  • missing packages

You can narrow down which distros work and which hardware support is missing. Also look at archwiki for that specific piece of hardware. You can find a lot of useful information even if you don’t use Arch.

thequantumcog,
@thequantumcog@lemmy.world avatar

No, look up what drivers/modules/packages your hardware need and load them/upgrade/install on the buggy distro
