Yeah I was of the same mindset for a good while and generally rocked with Nova since forever.

But when that Branch shit came about I dabbled with Neo/KISS/Niagara/Kvaesitso Launchers (which Neo is still the default on my backup locker phone) and others but when I got this Poco F6 I found the system Launcher works fine…🤔

Apart from this stupid thing which I think is more a “Xiaomi/HyperOS thing”, and not the Poco Launcher per se

https://support.google.com/android/thread/250904727/google-alarm-clock-blocked-in-virtual-reality-error?hl=en

Something I have noticed thou over these years is I really don’t spend too much time looking, or interacting with my Launcher so kinda don’t care 🙈

Do you worry about that Zero being deauthed since it uses 2.4 only still?

I ask as I’m having somewhat of a bit of lag / delay or something I need to look further into later with a Zero/DVBHAT + between my RPi5 / router which is using as its DNS provider (AdguardHome) and because I still use a 2.4GhZ camera (which has also been playing up recently…), got me thinking about having all the cams / Pi’s / SFF PC’s not only hard wired, but turning off the 2.4GhZ weefee altogether on the router due to Flippers and shit.

tldr: should I care?

Yeah me too, photos and videos I’ve recorded are the only things I’m bothered about. Backing up off-site all my arrrrr booty is redundant since I’ve shared it to a 2.1 ratio already and hopefully can download it again from people with larger storage than my family member has.

It’s how I handle backing up those photos / videos thou. I bought them a 512GB card and shoved that in a GLi AP they have down there which I sync my DCIM folder to (app was removed from Play Store since it didn’t need updating but Googles stupid policies meant it went RIP…), and I also backup that to the old Synology NAS I handed down to them. I suppose I could use Syncthing but I like that old app since the adage if it’s not broke don’t fix it applies.

Along with them having Tailscale on a Pi4 (on a UPS and is their/my backup TVHeadend server) and their little N100 media box I don’t even bother them with my meager photo collection and works good.

Your understanding is that you don’t understand what you’re trying to tout.

Which is telling. Toodle-pip beep boop

I think maybe you should just tell us what that 32GB is going to contain publicly, instead of dancing around questions with non-answers.

I bought two AXT1800’s for down at a family members house (main router + other on a Powerline in AP mode) and they have no complaints.

While I can’t speak for having to reboot them often since a few months ago I told them to schedule a reboot through the night, weekly, and I find them one of the cleanest router interfaces especially on mobile.

The timezone is different to your browser is my main qualm with them which I can’t seem to solve :/

That would be neat.

Like someone else said in here maybe the OP could use a really long cable to a USB drive away from the main server, but I do like the idea of something using hybrid wire(less) to auth.

They could even have a UPS underneath a Pi Zero and, have a PoE HAT too + travel router. Plug in LTE USB with backup SIM card, epoxy all that together and then hide it?

lol, paranoia fixed.

I like this, and I suppose it’s a shame a Rasp Pi can’t be WOL’ed.

But could another SFF single use/secured device on the same network that doesn’t have FDE, also provide that key only if and when you wake it up (manually decrypt the file after ssh’ing into it too?) instead of having a USB drive directly plugged into the main server so, if a nefarious person does have away with the main bounty they’re fugged without said second hidden device on the same network?

ninjaedit: I also at one point in the past did Wireless WOL (wireless NIC’s with WOL were prohibitively expensive at the time of me playing) via a Travel router that was acting as an Access Point, simply to wake up forward the magic packet. You could really hide that thing 😇

I haven’t seen no one mention it yet but you could simply buy a Rasp Pi and use it as a subnet router for your Tailnet.

It’s how I set up a family members Jellyfin/NAS/etc which I can access all their devices by local IP address, and you could do for your Roku too?

Fo’ shame, I kinda liked it but the writing was on the wall when they promised a V2 and things stalled, which, I suspect is because of things like Jellyseerr working on mobile not only just as well as Lunasea but, better?

I had the problem of someone who’s usually not too bad at setting things up remotely telling them to go to a locally hosted Jellyseerr page, instead of them inputting API keys into Lunasea was night and day. :/

Huh. The nearest I have to an actual “AOSP” device is my King Kong Cubot phone that has probably the cleanest version of “stock Android” I’ve ever seen, and I’m going to presume you mean like a Google Pixel / Graphene etc?

Tailscale and the QS tile / notification was solid on that Cubot but to be honest, I’ve barely turned it on these days and is now one of those drawer phones.

Miui / HyperHyperOS though is a different kettle of fish and exempting Tailscale from its App lel Killer does seem to work. 70-80%ish…

But there is something that just fuggs up and turn it off/on like most thingys I own 🙈

What device/ROM are you using?

It’s been very iffy for me on and off from Miui > HyperHyperOS, but just checking now?

Works fine

Like I say, the foreground notification seemed to be the lifeline to some of us using it and keeping it alive, even after IIRC some more restrictions came in with future versions of Android (forgive me, I’m very lazy these days and just skim Mishaal’s TG feed 😇)?

e: also comment ;)

It loses its foreground notification I’ve found that kills it for me

even thou the Quick Toggle and the app itself, shows as running

If I disconnect/reconnect the notification comes back, and I’ve found something even more weird on my device (A Xiaomi with its infamous OOM / background app killer…) is Tailscale still actually works fine most of the time without the foreground notification. I’m hazarding a 70% of the time for me?

A lot of us a while back found v1.5.2 fugged around with the persistent notification going RIP

You’re gonna be on an aeroplane for a month?

e: tongue in cheek and all aren’t SD cards are a thing these days? You’ve got the obvious network solutions but if you’re off the grid?

Why bother?

Damn, all this time using JF and I never thought of theming it.

While I use it on a SFF PC I have a couple of users that access my server via a couple of CCwGTV Chromecasts I handed them and so, unable to test since I don’t have one to hand but can you / does it theme the UI on the Chromecast too?

Cheers!

Kinda reminded me of this post

https://feddit.org/post/8032101

Albeit the kerning on those virtual keys are making me all itchy. Horrible horrible implementation from Google yet again when they could’ve done it right.

Aye!

I think one of the most concerning things for me thou recently is Google Play just chucking off dev’s apps from the Store because they don’t update them at a rate of knots / some arbitrary thing that hasn’t been disclosed to devs or left in a puddle of legalese in the TOS :/

I think your concerns about lack of updates is something while it worries some, I find it nice when updates are released only when it’s stable.

If you check the devs history they reviewed a pull on KISS launcher itself back in Nov

https://github.com/Neamar/KISS/pull/2345#issuecomment-2496214318

and I like slow burner builds and especially when the devs make the app for themselves to use like this one ;)

Hell yes.

I ain’t a lover of that kinda app (aesthetics plz) and why I stick with Boost being a RiF user but having lots of alternatives is one of the many reasons we all kicked off originally over in r/Android about the API bollocks Mr Greedy Piggy Spez brought in. That, and shitting on the disabled/spam whackers/translators you name it. Pissed us off enough we made this instance.

Does that official reddit app have decent Accessibility features yet, or was Spez yet again talking out of his pooper?

Good work btw, and obligatory fuck spez ;)

I haven’t built / tried it yet but would getting rid of the reddit logo up top too (leddit, perhaps?) work well? Or even load up your local instance favicon etc?
