This program is a client for the very solid Tvheadend TV streaming server. Tvheadend supports pretty much any source you can think of, but is a little more complicated to setup.

Tvheadend is a selfhosted service meant to be run on your own server with your own TV dongles / IPTV channels / etc.

If you only want to watch TV on your PC, doing so with something like Kodi is probably a better idea, as Kodi also supports USB tuners and is simpler to setup (doesn’t require a separate server).

I really like Pop!_OS, AFAIK it doesn’t have any telemetry. It’s basically a Ubuntu fork but without the stupid Ubuntu stuff, and they’re currently even working on their own Desktop Environment.

Lügennudel ._.

Ist tatsächlich keinen Monat her.

Magic Earth (while not FOSS, it’s privacy oriented though) can do this.

There’s also Transportr, but AFAIK it’s been unmaintained for quite a while now, so it may not work / stop working soon.

Adding to what others here have already said, I’d definitely download Signal and see if you can get any people to move from WhatsApp/Telegram/whatever to Signal.

I don’t know much about iOS apps, but you could look into more privacy focused YouTube clients, and possibly 2FA clients too (although that’s a bit of a controversial topic on iOS AFAIK).

I saw you mention in another comment that you use Amazon Alexa for smart home appliances. Depending on interest in selfhosting / time / motivation to move away from Amazon, you could look into using Home Assistant instead. It even has a Lemmy community: !homeassistant@lemmy.world.

Yep my mistake, I confused ShadowSocks with Cloak.

Nen Kumpel und ich haben mal direkt am Anfang um Australien gekämpft, wir sind beide mit 2 Truppen pro Person da raus gegangen…

Bei uns werden die knallhart eingehalten. Das ist dann so nen ‘boa ja taktisch gesehen wäre das perfekt, aber ich darf dich erst in 8 Runden wieder angreifen’. So bilden sich dann ganz zügig die 2 Großmächte die alle anderen platt machen.

I’m afraid your best bet here will be using WhatsApp.

Edit:
FindMy (for Android) might also be usable for that, but honestly if you just want it to work I’d still vouch for WhatsApp.

Signal supports a single momentary position, but not live location.

Ach, aber dann ist die Reise doch kein Abenteuer mehr.

What worked for me at my old school was using a ShadowSocks proxy. Basically what this does, is it takes all your traffic and just makes it look like random https traffic (AFAIK). ShadowSocks is just a proxy. The description fits the Cloak module, mentioned below.

I believe multiple VPNs support this, for me with PIA VPN it’s in the settings under the name “Multi-Hop” (PIA only supports this on the Desktop App, not on mobile).

This technique is pretty much impossible to block, unless you ban every single VPN ShadowSocks Proxy IP. If that is the case for you (chances are practically 0), you could also selfhost ShadowSocks in combination with the Cloak module, however this method is a lot more complicated.

Yes definitely, here’s my Steam ‘Local Multiplayer’ collection:

• Biped
• Move or Die
• Overcooked! 2
• Party Animals
• (Portal 2)
• Rayman Legends
• Screencheat
• Stick Fight: The Game
• Tetris Effect: Connected
• Ultimate Chicken Horse
• Unrailed!

Nintendo also has some great couch co-op games,for example:

• Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
• Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
• Nintendo Switch Sports
• Super Mario Party

I also very much agree with the other commenter here, it’s such a shame that couch co-op is dying. The only ones still believing in it seem to be Nintendo.

Another game that’s fun to play is Unravel 2, but for me the Steam version had all sorts of problems so I ultimately ended up refunding it again.

I find it even more puzzling as surely it has to be a decent increase in server demand to constantly be streaming video. How can that be worth it??

Push Notifications don’t really exist for Lemmy yet, as they aren’t supported in the backend currently:

As someone else here said, your best bet is probably monitoring your Inbox RSS feed.

+1 on OnlyOffice, it has 1:1 formatting compatibility with Microsoft Office. Unlike LibreOffice, it doesn’t have to translate documents between odt and docx in the background.

In the same vein, OnlyOffice has poor compatibility with odt files etc.

Quite a few cars also still have a SIM card hidden somewhere, which can be removed. The location of it varies widely though and they’re usually pretty hard to find.

That’s incorrect, Graphene OS has Android Auto support.

I was very disappointed with the (default) Camera after switching to Graphene, luckily you can just download the Pixel Camera (including all the Pixel optimizations) from Play Store on Graphene OS or download it as an APK bundle from some other sites (downloading the normal APK won’t work, it has to be the bundle).

Not OP, but this instantly made me think of the worst-case scenario PDFs I stumbled upon on Lemmy recently.
