Looks so cool! Hope you like using it. I just bought an ebook reader a couple weeks ago to try the exact same thing you were doing. I already had a Planck keyboard, and went for a larger ebook reader instead of the Palma. (Although the Palma does look so slick.) If I stick with it, I might end up replacing it with one of these “modern typewriter” devices like you did. Lately I’ve been liking the idea of having more purpose-specific devices that I use, instead of everything being basically an Android phone in different form factors.

I keep hearing positive things about the latest gnome mobile (and the distros that use it). I haven’t actually turned on my Librem 5 in a while, but I’m looking forward to flashing postmarket OS and PureOS and seeing whats new.

Wow, that looks fantastic! I like the light/dark pattern, almost like piano keys.

Also, I didn’t immediately see which community this post was from, and for a second or two I thought it was a little piece of cake from one of the foodie comms. It does look delicious…

Thank you! I’ve been ignoring that error, assuming that it was just about indentation.

Also I appreciate your use of the word “thusly” immediately after the word “tho.”

I’d also try asking on !simrallyracing@lemmy.world. Not the most active community, but still a fair number of subscribers who might have experience with this.

Agreed, I wouldn’t recommend Librewolf for casual users. I understand why Librewolf makes those decisions, and I’m glad that it exists, but you definitely run into some quirks when using it. I’m thinking about switching from Librewolf to Waterfox myself.

The thing I dislike about Brave is that Brave intends to be an advertising company. Brave’s original idea for revenue was that the browser itself should be the ad platform. Brave doesn’t block ads because it has a pro-user manifesto; it blocks ads because it dislikes competition.

That’s why it makes no sense for people to abandon Firefox for Brave. I understand the backlash against Mozilla’s recent ad-focused shift, but Brave invented that idea. So leaving Firefox for Brave is not an improvement.

It’s the browser I’ve chosen to use after getting fed up w/ Gecko’s terrible web compatibility these days (coming from Librewolf).

I’m curious about what those compatibility issues are. It’s been years since I’ve noticed any problems – and back when I was seeing problems, it was mainly because Google could afford to implement new standards faster than Mozilla could, not because Mozilla was doing anything wrong. Could it have been because of Librewolf? Librewolf has a ton of privacy-focused settings that can sometimes make pages behave in strange ways. (It doesn’t use your real time zone, it ignores dark mode, it lies about which OS you’re on, and it constantly clears your cookies to name a few.)

And on a meta-note: I dislike Brave, but I don’t think the parent here is a comment that needs to be downvoted. We can just explain why Brave is a bad idea.

Looking forward to reading it! awk has been a huge blind spot for me for a long time now.
