I have been out of the loop for over a decade, where do I begin? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Why is port forwarding important? Sorry if it's a dumb question, lol.

Use a password manager in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Quick question - what are your opinions on using Firefox's inbuilt password manager? I've installed Bitwarden as an extension, but I find Firefox to be more convenient.

I mostly use FF on Linux, Windows, and Android and have no issues with using FF cross platforms.

I watched Nvidia's Computex 2024 keynote and it made my blood run cold in c/technology@lemmy.world

This ironically(?) made me go read it. Normally I don't.

Thank you.

What phone do you use, if I may ask?

That really sucks, but I appreciate you looking!

So unfortunately either I couldn't find the option or what I thought was the option didn't have any effect in game mode :/

And as an extension - how do I change my controller layout while in game mode? I understand I can press the Steam button and then use my trackpad as a mouse, but I'd rather it just permanently behave as a mouse in game mode.

Basically I'd like to use the trackpads as mouse/scroll while browsing my library in Game Mode.

Thank you!

I'm so sorry, I was sleepy when typing out my question. I meant to ask how well it ran Switch games! But thank you for this, I have recently ordered mine and I'll keep this in mind!

Also have you tried any other games apart from BotW?

How does a deck perform for Steam games though?

Edit - oh fuck me, I was sleepy - I meant Switch games.

I've been using SwiftKey for over a decade now, and I didn't really realize how potentially horrible it is for privacy. What are some good alternatives you guys can suggest, ideally open source?

My ideal keyboard includes swipe to type and a notepad (to paste certain emoticons like shrug emoji and such).

Thank you!

Edit, for any future lemmings/internet people who want the definitive answer (so far, as of October '23), OpenBoard works great.

Download the latest release apk from here

And if you want swipe typing as well,

Download the "libjni_latinimegoogle.so" file onto your phone from here

Then when you open OpenBoard, go to Advanced and select "Load gesture typing library". When it asks you to select a file, select the "libjni" file and swiping should work just fine.
