If you have an email workflow that you like then something like rss2email might be an option. You simply feed your incoming rss into your email. You’ll want to auto-tag (or otherwise organize) these emails to keep them separate from regular emails. Then you use your usual email tools to organize them further.
I’ve been using such a setup for the past 15 years.
I’ve done many hours of phonecalls on mine. Mic quality is acceptable, slightly mushy. Wind is an issue for example when riding a bike at higher speeds. Wearing a hoodie over them can block the mic too.
I’ve been using various Aftershokz/Shokz models for many years and well over a thousand hours. They are a great option for speech-focused contents like podcasts, audiobooks and that’s what I use them for. I almost never use them for music, the lack of bass (even with earplugs) just doesn’t do it for me. But I don’t find any earbuds satisfactory for music either so maybe I am more picky than most.
I agree with OP about the controls. They are workable but could be much better even considering the limited inputs. I particularly hate the choice of triple-click for backwards-seek and I mess up the timing half the time. Another pet-peeve is the loud beep on play/pause that cannot be turned off. Using the phone/computer controls instead of the on-device ones avoid these issues.
As far as models I originally got the Aeropex and later on “downgraded” to the OpenMove. The audio quality is comparable between the two, the only thing you are missing with the lower end model is comfort - but that is highly subjective! I actually prefer the way the OpenMove feels.
I really wish that there was more competition in this space. The Shokz products are a bit overpriced and slow to evolve and the rest of the options I’ve seen seems lower quality and worse form factor. Would love to hear if anybody has found a different brand that they prefer over the Shokz models.
SearXNG is great at what it does but it falls into the Bing/Google/etc-frontend category since it just forwards your query to one of the search engines it has modules for. It doesn’t have its own crawl and index.
I wish that was the case but sadly most of them are basically Bing or Google frontends or belong to entities that I trust even less. As far as I can tell there are very few independent crawls out there.
Small bug: changing the sort-order loses the filter settings.
But looks great overall! I’ve already rediscovered some of my older favorites and looking forward to finding new stuff too.
Also, any chance of making the filtered/sorted list downloadable as a CSV? In some cases this would be more convenient than paging through the web UI.
The App Store and Android Market launches were pretty damn close. The iOS app-store launched July 2008 and the first Android consumer device (G1) shipped September 2008 and it had the market from day 1.
Worth noting that iOS users had to wait a full year for the app store after the iPhone 1 launch because Jobs didn’t want it at first. I had both devices fairly early on and on the iPhone side we were running “apps” on jailbroken devices months before the app store existed.
phones are going to ruin everything
they kinda did.
There hasn’t been any real form factor innovation in a very long time so cycling through the same styles is what we are left with.
And another one from a few days ago: https://lemdro.id/post/201279
Termux for ssh, scripting and other terminal goodness, Antennapod for podcasts, NewPipe for Youtube, Fennec for web browsing with extension support, Fedilab for Mastodon, Mupdf for a no-nonsense PDF viewer.
That reminded me of Catan Dice Game which is a version of the roll & write of the same name. Very simple especially compared to more modern r&w games but I find the beat your own score is addictive.
Same for me, or at least around that time period. First class hardware keyboard support too.
I often use just plain old CLI adb push/pull. For Emacs users the built-in tramp-adb support is neat, you can use dired and other Emacs operations as if it was a local filesystem. I also run sshd in termux so scp and rsync are very handy too. Even sshfs mounts work but I use that less frequently.
This looks neat except for the keylogging potential. I’d want something like this to be open source before I can use it seriously.
Being able to ssh back to my home machine has always been the killer app for me going back to the G1 (and Palm Treo pre-Android). From the ssh session I access my Emacs session (which I use for a ton of stuff) and the usual shell things. Nowadays this is done using Termux. Besides ssh I also run some small personalized utilities and services locally in another Termux session.
Other advanced stuff are mainly related to the physical keyboard: Keymapper for custom keybindings, vimium in Fennec (Firefox) for keyboard-driven browsing.
Just did, thanks! Looks promising so far, didn’t realize it was so far along already.
It’s open-source and it’s available at no cost on F-Droid. The Play store version is a way to support the developer.
BTW, I just noticed that Fedilab is apparently the #1 paid social app now, that’s pretty funny.
AntennaPod is the best. I have 1432 hours on it since 2018.
