You may like this pattern of starting all custom commands with a comma - benefits against a wrapper command would be shorter command names and built-in tab completion.

Accrescent is in early alpha, but it looks like it’s on its way to be a great, modern app store.

I found the My Deep Guide youtube channel to be a really good source of reviews when I was choosing an eink tablet, here’s a link to his 2022 roundup.

I went with a Supernote A5X around 2.5 years ago. My usecase was for college to take lecture notes and to read academic papers/epubs. I went with the Supernote over the reMarkable for the software support: I really like the concept of reMarkable’s Linux-based OS and being able to use community mods, but it felt like I would need the mods to have all the features I wanted, while the Supernote wouldn’t allow for modification but would have everything I wanted built in. I’ve been satisfied with the writing and reading experience, customer support is responsive via email and Reddit, and OS updates have been adding new features without a subscription.

Jerboa does maintain a list of instances for you to select how to open in the app - list here and see my other comment on how to pick the instances you want.

The list can be updated with this generation script, it seems to get all the Lemmy instances with at least 50 users from fediverse.observer.

Disclaimer: I’ve only tried this with my home instance and it’s worked fine, I think I ran into issues with links from other instance, but try it out and see if it works now!

If you hold down on the app and click on “app info”, then go to “open by default”, you can select which websites should open in the jerboa app:

It’s worked perfectly for me with links from my home instance.

(This “Open by Default” feature is very useful to know about for unofficial frontends like squawker, because if it isn’t an official app this setting is how you choose it to be the default app.)

Starting with Android 12 (and maybe earlier, I think it may be a part of a Google Play update?), you can delete your advertising ID in settings - definitely worth doing!

There’s a github issue about this if you want to add anything to it, this separate issue also has some details about the sanitation. The issue seems to have been introduced in v0.18.3.

For my 6a, when it gives me trouble I’ve run my finger against the outside of my nose and tried again - that’s consistently worked for me.

• pdfcrop (commonly included with LaTeX) for cropping margins - it cuts the pdf down to its contents then adds a margin of your choosing, extremely useful for forcing academic papers to have consistent margins, pdfcrop --margins 72 *pdf here* will create a document with a ~1in margin all around (it uses bp as its units)
• vips for resizing/converting images - it’s a bit faster and lighter than imagemagick in my experience, although the main reason I use it instead of imagemagick is just because I like playing around with stuff I haven’t used before :) It has an officially supported python binding too
