Getting an obscure accessibility app
1mon 16d ago in piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com from play.google.comDid you try adding the web app as an instant app on your home screen? Just a workaround if you can't find it at all.
Proton Drive vs. NextCloud vs. Filen for cloud storage
1mon 27d ago in degoogle@lemmy.mlDepending on your need, you could also make do with Syncthing and multiple devices. It's mostly set up and forget. But that's if only having multiple copies is the point. If you have two way sync setup, it will of course delete if you delete in either place. If you don't want that to happen, you can just do one way sync. It offers quite a bit of control in what happens.
If you can host, nextcloud for sure. Comes with so many other things that it becomes a pretty cool thing. Don't have to pay more and more to get "features". Nextcloud has way more features than any one person will ever need.

Which AI model to run locally on android
1y 18d ago in privacy@lemmy.mlYou want to run it on the phone itself? I don't think any phone would be good enough for that. The issue with AI assistants is not just privacy. It's also the resource consumption (and of course stolen content). It's so high and only these big companies with huge server farms can do it.
If you just want a voice assistant for simple commands, I've heard of an open source local assistant called Dicio. But I don't think you can talk to it like ChatGPT or something.

Brightness control not working on laptop
1y 1mon ago in kde@lemmy.kde.socialI remember trying all this on GNOME before finding the extension. But I'll check again, thank you
Display & Monitor says Built in Screen. The brightness slider here doesn't work either. What else can I check?
But Solus is rolling release.
Linux distro recommendations
1y 1mon ago in linux@lemmy.mlSimilar thoughts and after hopping a bit I'm liking Solus really well. It's rolling release but what they call "curated" rolling release. They take a little bit of time to iron stuff out. There's a weekly update cycle.
The installation is through live ISO and was pretty easy, took only a few minutes. They have a Plasma ISO too, since you mentioned wanting KDE.
As a plus, I've not once used the command prompt in the past couple of months since I installed (GNOME first and then since the last week, KDE). I'm not averse to commands but I do want something that I can recommend to my less techy anti-capitalist friends. My games have all been working fine too.
Edit to add: I think they've also mentioned that their aim is for a personal desktop.
I want to make Debian work, please help
1y 3mon ago in debian@lemmy.mlSome stuff that works great with Lutris or Heroic on Fedora, just wouldn't even start up on Debian. I tried a couple of things but nothing worked. I thought it might be a new parts issue stable is 2 years old at this point.
I'm going to see if I can first try kernel+mesa backports (after trying the games again just on stable). If that doesn't work I might give testing a go.
Can I move my nextcloud account from a provider to my own server?
