Or add EA anti-cheat 6 months after release like they did for EA WRC.

Gatgetbridge (your link) has a breakdown of devices they support https://gadgetbridge.org/gadgets/ . You can click through the vendors to find devices which are both “highly supported” and “no vendor-pair”. Meaning most/all the features work without any reliance on the vendor app.

As for the similarity you are asking about with pixel->GrapheneOS, there are very few watches that can run an alternative open source firmware or operating systems apart from the ones that are already open source, like bangle.js, pinetime, etc. Wearables are even more specialized than phones, they require specialized code designed specifically for them and would likely require pretty extreme effort to reverse-engineer.

I use a pebble 2 HR with gadgetbridge but the watch it self runs the old pebble firmware which gadgetbridge talks to. This is fine for me, but if you are looking for a more modern watch you may have to make some compromises.

Does Bazzite use a gamescope session on wayland by default? Gamescope has a bug which prevents the wayland client from drawing the steam overlay. I suppose it’s unlikely to be the same issue but I happen to be dealing with it on my system (not Bazzite) so I immediately made the connection.

AOSP gallery that comes with GrapheneOS. The app info says it’s called com.android.gallery3d. There’s some info here in the docs about the relationship between camera, edit functions, and the gallery app.

No, I don’t have markup installed (it is there in apps but not installed from the mirror).

I think in my case the screenshot functionality is built into AOSP and the editor you get when tapping the resulting preview overlay in the lower left corner of the screen is part of the “gallery” app since using the “edit” feature from gallery launches the same editor. Maybe GrapheneOS just sets that as the default editor, I’m not sure.

What android OS do you use? On stock Android 14 (GrapheneOS, but it’s not a GOS feature) this functionality is built into the stock screenshot tool.

pwr+voldown -> tap screenshot that appears in the overlay after you take it -> tap the crop tool . I suppose step three could be removed but what if you want to do something that isn’t cropping? There are lots of other features so at some point you have to tell the tool what you want to do.

broad support for generic smart watches

Gadgetbridge is pretty well on it’s way to this. They roll out support for new devices monthly it seems like. Of course there are always feature X and Y that fitbit or garmin does that it doesn’t, but it’s quite an impressive project. I use it with a pebble 2 HR.

Memories and Gallery (actually deprecated by photos) are not the same thing, just to clarify. I’m not in a position to agree or disagree with any of the statements here since I’ve never used immich, but I don’t want people to think that the default photo viewer in nextcloud is what was being discussed here.

If you want to monitor sleep with it charging at night isn’t possible, and remembering to charge every single day during the day is annoying in my opinion. Not everyone wants sleep monitoring though, or likes to sleep with a watch on, so I get why there’s some division on the subject.

My pebble 2 hr lasts about 5 days and I’m very happy with that frequency of charging. I think it was a bit better when new but that was a long time ago.

Nextcloud AIO is not the only way to run Nextcloud in docker. For example you can use the Nextcloud docker repository and docker-compose for which there are many examples. I’ve been running Nextcloud this way for many years now without any un-recoverable issues, and no issues at all that weren’t caused by me. Upgrading is also very easy since you simply increment the version in docker-compose.yml and restart the service.

That said the NixOS suggestion from @StrawberryPigtails@lemmy.sdf.org looks really neat and I may try that out soon my self since I’ve never played with NixOS before and it seems like a good excuse to do so.

Is it on a tty in embedded mode? If so does switching ttys using CTRL+ALT+F{1…10} work? Usually the display manager is on F1 or F7. If it’s not in embedded mode, does Left Alt + Enter work?

EDIT: Re-read and realized I didn’t understand completely. You’re starting it with your display manager. I’m not sure how you would kill it in that case.

I think this one https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/5369 is probably the more relevant, and also open, issue. However even in that issue people claim you can choose not to. The argument is only that it suggests restarting explorer and also rebooting and that this is annoying. So you never get a prompt, it just dies?

I agree though that the amount of time where it was force rebooting is pretty bad, and it looks like the rollout of the patch was mishandled. I also should probably admit that I’ve never touched the windows client, my environment is entirely Linux and Android. The Linux client even with file manager integration doesn’t require restarts of anything.

I mentioned the client in there (4th paragraph), but mine was more of a general rant on the overall low effort that seems to have been put in to figuring out what the actual problem was. And that it is relatively common among people in the self hosting community to assume that Nextcloud is a lot simpler than it is. It’s a huge cloud suite consisting of many applications, clients, plugins, proxies, caching, database, etc. You need to have a pretty good understanding of how it all works, and how to investigate a problem, and ideally you should be testing before upgrades. Large organizations often even test endpoint applications like the desktop client and push out only tested versions to users via policy or some kind of endpoint management.

I can’t really draw many conclusions from the very little information provided in this post, but I suspect OPs windows machine is not in an entirely stable state, which is what is causing some of these update issues.

And, I put some of the blame for Nextcloud under-representing it’s complexity on Nextcloud’s marketing and AIO. You absolutely can install it without understanding anything, and that’s a little dangerous in my opinion because it is actually quite complex and you will probably end up breaking it at some point and need to dig in to fix it.

Ok, I’m prepared to be downvoted today so here goes.

Nextcloud is an enterprise cloud suite. The one you run in docker on your rpi (or whatever) is the same one that is run at a company, albeit with more high availability and redundancy, but the same application, proxies, caching, db, etc. Nothing is stopping you from running the stable channel and testing your upgrades, or even rolling out specific stable client versions to your devices.

Said companies often have teams (more than one person) to run it, stage upgrades, automated testing, automated backups, monitoring, etc. They go to work and do just that, maybe not every day but at least a couple times a week their focus is Nextcloud and only Nextcloud.

What many people in the self hosting community do is spin up docker, without ever having touched docker before, and try to run Nextcloud, forget that it exists, and then upgrade it a year later across multiple versions without maintaining the database. Then they obsess about how fast an app loads by refreshing it a whole bunch, and then complain on internet forums that it sucks. This, like many posts, doesn’t have a specific problem for us to help with, no logs or stack traces have been posted, and the subject of the complaint shows just how terrible your understanding of application security is.

So, while there is legitimate criticism of some of Nextcloud’s design choices, this isn’t it. And at the risk of sounding a little gatekeepy, if you post “nextcloud updates break everything” with no context you probably should spend some time gaining a better understanding of how internet facing services work and make an attempt to fix the problem (probably misconfiguration, and in this desktop client case probably a heap of un-updated local software installed alongside the client), which I’m sure people would find if they did the bare minimum of reading a few log files or any of the other things that come with being an application admin.

The fact that “toms” hardware is reporting on this is pretty coinci(dental)

I don’t think AC is ever going to work without some workarounds to get it to start. AFAIK the only one required right now for vanilla AC is protontricks 244210 dotnet472 corefonts and then I think it will start. GE might implement a fix for that I guess but honestly the vanilla game isn’t worth playing without content manager at this point and that’s a whole multi-step process to install inside the wine prefix and in the game root outside of steam, and not something GE can do anything about.

Anyway the process is much simpler than it used to be. Here’s my notes from last time I did it about a month ago or so. I race (badly) in AC pretty much daily.

Install game
select GE-Proton8-25 (get it from github if you don't have it)
run game and let it crash (takes like 15 minutes)
protontricks 244210 dotnet472 corefonts (about 20 minutes)
add fonts from here https://files.acstuff.ru/shared/T0Zj/fonts.zip (readme)
Install Content Manager in .steam/root/steamapps/common/assettocorsa/
set launch options to c="%command%";sh -c "${c::-17}Content Manager Safe.exe'"
mkdir -p $HOME/.steam/root/steamapps/compatdata/244210/pfx/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Steam/config
ln -s $HOME/.steam/root/config/loginusers.vdf $HOME/.steam/root/steamapps/compatdata/244210/pfx/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Steam/config/loginusers.vdf
protontricks 244210 winecfg, then add library override for dwrite.dll (native, builtin)
Run game, will launch CM
echo 'Z:\home\'$USER'\.steam\root\steamapps\common\assettocorsa' then paste that in the AC location when prompted
install your key for the full version
install CSP, then upgrade to 0.2.2 (will say Can't find INIReader::cache when launching if you don't), then upgrade to the preview if you want.
install anything else you want like SoL, pure, etc.
Drive!

I’m currently running AC in GE-Proton8-25… a little out of the loop I guess, what is broken?
