I switched over to Pop OS and Regolith 2 about a month ago and I'm very happy with it, it's the same experience as using it with Ubuntu.
I have had some trouble with the Pop Shop leaking memory, freezing, and crashing, but you can disable it and use Gnome Software if you want a gui.
For what it's worth, when I modified the dialer app to add a feature the developer didn't want, I discovered that there is a nag built into every screen that triggers randomly for "unofficial" versions: https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Commons/blob/5ad...
Just to be clear, is apple's icloud photo storage E2EE? From what I've been able to find it isn't, but I couldn't find anything official one way or the other from apple directly.
I've been very happy with this fork of newpipe that has sponsorblock built-in (it's been kept up to date with upstream so far): https://github.com/polymorphicshade/NewPipe
It started with this rejected PR: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/pull/3205
Looks like an interesting podcast! Unfortunately, my podcast client doesn't load anything earlier than episode 22, and Spotify doesn't either - it looks like the RSS feed doesn't contain the earlier episodes. Is that expected behavior?
I was particularly surprised to learn that Moodle is open-source. I used it in school before the world of software development and open-source was on my radar.
Is there a way to do this for the maps search? I only see an option to change the directions provider.
KeepassCX + FF extension: Works decently for password management. Though there's no solution for FF mobile as far as I know.
Not sure what mobile platform you use, but on Android I have been very happy with Keepass2Android (https://github.com/PhilippC/keepass2android). It uses the android password-manager API so you get autofill (or at least a quick-access button) on login fields in both apps and websites.
Edit: It also supports a lot of methods for syncing the keepass database between devices, I point it to a directory that's managed by Syncthing and it works pretty flawlessly.
Wow, those are some impressive results! I've been wanting to do some ascii art on a dot-matrix printer for a little while now, and I was thinking of something similar to your "sub-pixel rendering" but had no idea how to research/implement it. I look forward to reading through your code and references more, and I really appreciate the history that you've written up here.
