Hooray, it includes SingleFile!

In the sense I think you’re asking, never: contributing a fix or an improvement is never a one-and-done, fire it off and forget it edit. Each contribution is a request to open a dialog. Implicit in each pull request are multiple questions, perhaps including “is this a good idea”, and “do you like this attempt to do it”.

If the project maintainer who reviews your PR doesn’t like it, they can expend the effort to try to explain why, and teach you. So try to make their job easier, by opening with a clear explanation of why you’re doing it, and if what you did involved design decisions, why you chose as you did.

I regard “smart” as an epithet I want to avoid in appliances. Light switches, thermostats, refrigerators, and all the rest seem to work great without adding internet connectivity, security breaches, corporate surveillance, and vendors removing functionality, or ending support to turn the appliance into e-waste.

I got started with RSS using a TUI program on unix, whose name I forget. But then Google came out with Reader (and Listen for podcasts). When they lost interest and dropped them, I exported my OPML and switched to apps I could find on f-droid. Now I back up my OPML scrupulously and am currently happy with Feeder and Antennapod; Google taught me I didn’t want to depend on someone else’s server for something like this; it’s too important. If ever I find I want some feature that requires a server, I’ll self-host something (Nextcloud?), but I seem to be well enough served by purely local clients.

It did, then came the big rewrite, and nearly all extensions went away. Some eventually came back, but Singlefile never did; there’s no longer any way to save the html of a site you visit. So I keep Iceraven, which still supports the addons that firefox used to.

If this comes through, I might no longer need Iceraven (andoid firefox with full addon support, like before they tore it out; I use it for Singlefile)

For me, the key is FOSS. I was a keen fan of swiftkey, its word predictions worked great. Then it was bought by a company that I distrust, and when I was forced to choose another, I decided to try to ensure I’d never have to switch again.

A little while after I bailed on swiftkey, the news reports came that it was auto-filling random strangers’ credit card numbers; I felt vindicated.

I’ve got three soft keyboards enabled on my phone, to choose between as needed.

Unexpected Keyboard is my default; it’s a perfectly cromulent basic keyboard, that makes all the punctuation, ctrl/fn/esc available for comfy shell work.

When I need to type in non-ascii characters like accented letters, I have AnySoft available. And pwsafe has a soft keyboard in it to let me avoid passing my (exceedingly hard to type, long random) passwords through the clipboard.

I used to have Hacker’s Keyboard in the mix, but Unexpected Keyboard has made it unnecessary.

when I wanted a lemmy app, searching f-droid only pulled up Jerboa, and I remain happy with it.

I use jove (a small, lightweight emacs) within Termux, and M-X filter-region through sort
