I forget the name of the project or institution and I’m not sure if the book covers this. Either in the late 19th or early 20th century a set of libraries/archives were created that you could call on the phone, theoretically from anywhere in the world. You could ask the staff questions and they had a sort of database of punch cards they could use to find the information you wanted.

Nah I have no beef with the mods. I crossposted there at someone else’s suggestion and when it was removed I was curious so I decided to ask Lemmy. I imagine modding a comm that big is hard work.

Yeah, for being ‘Not onion-y’. Oh well.

Sounds good.

When I select the F-Droid link i get the message “No such app found”.

What scenes do they remember?

Apparently it’s a metadata bug, K9 shouldn’t be listed as Thunderbird. See comments ITT.

In F-Droid (not sure about Play or other app stores) K9 v8.0 (and above I guess) is now listed as Thunderbird Beta for Testers. I and possibly others thought that the K9 version of the app would keep it’s branding all the way through, including it’s listing name or title in various app stores. Perhaps it wont or perhaps it’s a listing error. We’ll see.

FYI this is from 2022 but is relevant because Thunderbird (and K9 v8) just landed in F-Droid (and other android package managers I guess but I haven’t checked).

The process of importing from K9 Mail worked without issue for me. There is also the option to import from desktop using a QR scanner (or some kind of scanner, again I didn’t go down that rabbit hole).

Drew DeVault noted the same in So you want to compete with or replace open source.

I think having ‘Open’ in the name muddies the waters a bit though. The full name almost makes the project sound anti open source, which it isn’t.

At first glance they seem to be. They could include ‘Do you agree?’ appended to them to make them more comprehensible. I didn’t create the survey nor am I involved in the project. Just following it’s progress. You could email Bruce to pass on your feedback.

That’s not the case with my parents.

lol

WordPress?

What would make it better than NewPipe?

They made it. They’re in the delta quadrant.

Aside from saving places what else can you do with google maps that can be exported?

In Voyager there is a setting to add instances you want to block.

I can block instances on Voyager. I assume that only blocks them when I’m browsing on Voyager though and I have no idea how it handles votes/posts/comments for any blocked instance.

Best of luck with your endeavours to find a place you want to hang out in.
