I've been using krita for a while now to do pixel art on android, it works great, but you need to play with the setting to make it work properly.

Recently I found Drawpile, which is based on krita but optimized for android. https://f-droid.org/packages/net.drawpile/

"And move to what?"

To having a better life.

I like YouTube as much as the guy next to me, but at this point we have become to Dependant to it. Instead of watching quality content like movies, series, documentaries or animation; we end watching someone talking about that on YouTube. When we find nothing good on the platform we end watching something we don't care about just to have something to watch or having as background noise. Some people can't even enjoy a meal or sleep without YouTube. At this point YouTube is more numbing the TV ever was.

I hate what they are doing, trying to block Invidious, Newpipe and the ability to watch the platform without ads. But at the end it'll be the best for all of us except for YouTube.

Eventually YouTube will die and a new shitty monopoly will step in.

Yes, I use App Manager. On APKs chose open as, app manager, scan. If the app is already installed you can also use the scanner option

It works, thanks!

 

I use Fennec as my default android browser, but since it updated to 127.0.0 the Dark Reader extension has been broken. Some sites like github are in light mode by default, when I checked Dark Reader's option a message saying that dark theme is detected on the page, but the page is in light mode. Other pages like Brave search are also on light mode but the message, now said something about the site been on a global dark list (I don't know what that means but it's blinding me) this aren't the only websites with this issue by the way, so every time I browse the internet is like playing russian roulette with my eyes, not knowing when is going to be dark or light. Tried Mull but is the same problem.

Tried to change to Midnight Lizard and Dark Background and Light Text but neither work as smoothly as Dark Reader used to work.

I didn't knew Friendica could interact with Lemmy. For whatever reason Lemmy and Kbin had been in their own corner of the fediverse.

What's keiyoushi? Can you use it for anime like Aniyomi.

When Tachiyomi went down I migrate to Aniyomi and have since them enjoyed the anime feature. It's still working, but it'll be such a pain to migrate all my anime and manga library.

Try Nova https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.courville.nova/ It scan your videos for movies and series and then it downloads the poster, background art, information of the serie/movie and information of each episode, you can also download subtitles.

There's also kodi https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.xbmc.kodi which I think is a more complete option, but it was designed for TVs and not for phones. I also think the fdroid version is generally outdated.

Krita. I got a low end table and it works fine for my needs. Just be aware that you can't intall plugging on android yet, and while you can animate, you can't render the animation.

You can make kirta work on a phone by increasing the dp inside the developer options in your phone.

I downloaded it years ago from apkmirror and update it via the app itself. It has never made those connections before until last week. I think that maybe the connection it made to Google fonts was because days ago (maybe a month ago) I changed the language and it needs to connect to the Internet to do so. But I can't find a reason to why it connected to telegram, which I don't use.

I've been using Mixplorer for years because is simply the best file manager on android, but I try just using open source.

But the reasons I'm finally moving is that it doesn't update regularly and a couple days ago I find it making connections to google and telegram.

No, Happychick is malware, stay away from it. All the emulators they use are stolen from the .emu apps, from MAME and if you want to play Nintendo DS it literally just installs a moded version of drastic.

It ask for a lot of permissions, including location and contacts.

You can also used it to download untrusted Roms and even android apps.

On top of that isn't even open source.

 

I've been wanting to move from Mixplorer to Ghost Commander for a while now, but whenever I move an image, then it stops showing on Aves (fdroid) and whenever I move an audio file then the same happens with vinyl.

This files are still on my device, and Vlc and Fossify gallery can still interact with them, but not Aves, nor Vinyl.

Does someone know how to fix this?

All I want to do is move to Ghost Commander, I don't want to change my gallery or music app.

Is there any open source file manager not avalaible on Fdroid?

I've tried them all and Ghost files seems to be the one that can best fulfill my needs.
