Syncthing.

Amazing that you could sync your android phone's data to a PC locally. No cloud drive needed.

Yeah I love that list. I contribute to it when I can. This one is also great, I just found it recently.

Didn't hear before from Futo voice Speech to Text, nice! I'll drop also Kaldi for FOSS Text To Speech, and Heliboard for swipe/gliding typing keyboard, Lille swiftkey or gboard..

Briar and Futo Voice sound cool.

How do you trigger Futo Voice?

I tap the microphone icon on my keyboard.

Obtainium seems very cool! Installs/Updates apps from GitHub GitLab releases.

Cherrytree. It's a hierarchical list-making application which you can easily use to organise your entire existence in a single encrypted file.

In the case of "app", for what platform?

I mean, virtually all of the software in the Linux distribution that I use is privacy-friendly in that it doesn't send data about me elsewhere.

[-] Interstellar_1@pawb.social 4 points 6 months ago

Any platform, the question is purposefully broad

[-] ace_garp@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

F-Droid

It's a FOSS app store for Android. Contains many privacy apps.

F-Droid website

(I usually assume everyone on Lemmy already knows about it)

What does simple x do better than signal?

[-] iiGxC@slrpnk.net 2 points 6 months ago

Idk all the details, the difference is probably negligible for most people tho

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Warpinator also works on phones.

It's a device to make phone calls, but that's not important right now.

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Surely you aren't serious!?
