Notes:

I don’t like that most notes apps don’t let you access to your files, relying instead in cloud synching. One of the few that gives you full control is https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.gsantner.markor/

It let you chose a folder where to save your notes and can manage many types of files (markdown, txt, todo, csv, etc)

I like saving my notes on my SD card, I created different folders to work as notebooks, so for example, I have a folder named “comments” where I edit my comments before posting, one for lists, one for lyrics of songs I like and I’m thinking about making one for cooking recipes.

Music:

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.poupa.vinylmusicplayer/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/player.phonograph.plus

and https://f-droid.org/en/packages/ch.blinkenlights.android.vanilla

Are the best for offline experience. I really like vinyl’s and phonograph’s plus UI, simple, yet powerful. Both supports lyrics, metadata editing and at least vinyl can connect to the internet to grab artist picture and bio which can be displayed offline, I’m not sure if phonograph can since it’s main focus is privacy and to work fully offline.

The issue i have with both is that they don’t work properly on my Samsung tab, I think is the awful Samsung bloatware that makes them stop, and not make full use of all their features.

Vanilla UI isn’t the best looking but it has many features when combined with the extensions. The best Foss metadata fetcher and editor. The problem the app have is that it isn’t update frequently, and at the moment it has a problem with the notifications. There’s already a PR opened in github, so hopefully this get fixed soon.

Keyboard

I’m currently using 2 keyboard apps https://github.com/Helium314/openboard as my main and https://f-droid.org/en/packages/rkr.simplekeyboard.inputmethod When I’m tire of the autocorrector changing what I write. I know I can disable it on openboard, but most of the times I actually use it and simple board is just more fluid.

I use Firefox everyday on my Samsung tab and works fine

Let’s said I use AI to write a book, in that case, AI will just grab what someone’s else wrote.

Let’s said I use AI to Write code, AI will just copy someone’s else code.

Let’s said I use AI to make art, AI uses Someone’s else art.

Then, let’s said I sell the book, use the code and make nft’s with the art, since AI “did it” I don’t have to follow any license or give credit to anyone.

About using only public information, that should be an opt in, but instead AI companies are just taking public internet, putting it inside a can a selling it, you like it or not.

I think to remember it’s something related to sports. Many sports logos resemble an abstract human figure and the stars may be the the continents (like the Olympic rings) or the version of the event.

Yes, but it suffers the same problem the rest of the fediverse does: the lack of people.

If you are looking for an alternative to consume content, maybe odysee will be a better option.

Anyway, you can watch peertube using the newpipe app.

Hashtags are basically tags, if put a # before a word, the post, it’ll create a link to that tag and I’ll be easy to find similar content.

So for example if I use #bunny and you tap the link, all content with that hashtag will be displayed.

Upboost

Here are some alternative:
https://alternativeto.net/software/imgur/

At the moment I’m using mastodon, it works.

Instead of reddit use Kbin/Lemmy

Instead of twitter use Mastodon

Instead of YouTube use Peertube/Odysee

By the way, we should stop using imgur for pictures

Without knowing which notes app you are using it may be difficult to help you.

I hate that most notes apps save your files somewhere you can’t easily access, fortunately I found Markor which has the feature to let me chose where to save my notes.

https://www.f-droid.org/packages/net.gsantner.markor/

As I said, without knowing which app you are using is not easy to give you a valid advice, all I can think right know is using the clipboard to copy/paste the notes content to an app like markor, Notes or Collaboration Office and save the file on an SD card.

This.

Plus some instances like searx.tiekoetter.com replace links to page that contain ads and trackers with their alternative (twitter with nitter, YouTube with Invidious, reddit with libreddit, etc).
