I just found out you can use Obtanium to make this process easy, you can just add the repo URL into the app.

Interesting, seems you have to download the .apk directly from their repo though, rather than any store. So I'm guessing there's no automatic updates?

I think I might give IronFox a go, just a bit weary as never heard of it before, not sure who is the owner of the project and where they are based, GitLab project only has ~125 stars.

Have you ever used the Accrescent app store? That's their recommended option for installing it.

Recently there has been controversy around Mozilla Firefox.

I've been looking for an alternative but really struggling, seems like every alternative has a downside:

  • Vivaldi: Uses some proprietary code and likely not doing much better on the user data side of things, also based on Chromium.

  • Tor: Uses Tor protocol and so is quite slow, my ISP would probably also think I'm a drug lord.

  • Fennec: Basically looks the same as Firefox but guessing less up to date, F-Droid has a warning about it's using Mozilla services for tracking.

What are you guys using? Have you found anything good?

If you highlight text in nano using your keyboard I think it uses nanos built-in highlighting and doesn't allow copying to the clipboard. It has it's own built in cut and paste system, and not on the keys you would expect.

If you highlight the text with your mouse it uses the terminals highlighting and copying to your clipboard works!

Just lot's of inconsistency is what I'm saying, similar to your Firefox experience!

Yeah I know about Ctrl+Shift+C I was joking, I think we've can all relate to accidentally sending a interrupt signal every now and then!

Now tell me how to copy text from nano and paste it elsewhere! 😆

Cool the user count is going up, just hope it's not going to be all bots and trolls 😆
