Hell, Lutris can even set up the original 1989 Sim City for you. Seeing that game on modern display sizes and resolutions is quite something

Yeah. And I bet most, if not all of them would’ve been a lot happier with that feature. It makes things so much easier, so much more flexible.

It’s 2024 and GIMP will only now be getting the ability to do non-destructive editing through adjustment layers. It has been fine for many simple tasks, but for anything that’s more complex than a Lemmy shitpost, it’s been rough for that reason alone

It’s definitely more convoluted, but uBlock Origin can also selectively block pretty much anything, really. That being said, whatever tool you use, blocking any third party stuff per default is always a good start, to see how well any given site can work without it. Tells you a lot already

I was wondering where that issue came from

I had one big problem with VLC, in that it could not figure out which of my monitors I wanted the video to run fullscreen on. That was infuriating to the point I switched to MPV, and I’m very happy with it

Sadly, no

As much as I hate him, a large majority of the games that are given away on that platform are fully DRM-free, and that’s pretty damn cool

As far as I know, it’s all we have right now

I recently discovered Image Toolbox, it has the best editing capabilities of any FOSS Android app I’ve seen so far. That being said, if developing RAWs is something you need as well, I don’t think there exists anything besides Google’s Snapseed and Lightroom mobile.

As for taking pictures, I quite enjoy OpenCamera, but there’s not much else than that.

I still don’t get how cramming 108MP on this tiny of a sensor is going to help anyone with anything

I’ve never even heard of it. Anyway, use Graphene if you have a Pixel, and ideally DivestOS if you don’t

Most of them, that’s fair. But I do see a distinct lack of email apps supporting it.

Not common enough, when you look at the small list of apps that support it

If the content on a site is important enough for me to bookmark it, I’ll likely make a local copy for exactly that reason. I want to be able to go back to this information whenever I want, with or without internet access

It’s a pretty helpful tool, but I still prefer running an LLM locally, even though it’ll take a while to answer, then

It’s going to be part of the 3.0 release, after what feels like an eternity. The 2.99 dev release has it already, I might try that

It’s nice that the option exists, I didn’t know that. But I have to say, I’m still not a fan of the overall concept of bridges

They make things so much easier, having to make copies of every layer every time just to keep the original in case you need to re-do something half an hour later is super annoying.

Especially if you do multiple different things with a layer. Do you really have the patience to make backuo copies of a layer after every little edit you apply to it?

And then let’s say step 2 of 5 didn’t turn out like you want. Backup copies or not, you still have to re-do everything from 2 to 5 because of GIMPs destructive nature as of right now

Fossify Contacts, perhaps
