Don't worry, eventually you will reach a point where going back to Windows becomes a LOT harder than fixing any issue you might run into on Linux. Just that on Linux it's real easy to get tempted to switch to another distro that will surely fit you perfectly :D
Literally my morning trying to solve input lag on a arch vm. I use arch btw
Workouts too: am I sore because I'm doing it wrong, or am I sore because I'm doing it right and muscles I'm not used to using much are tired?
When I first started using a rowing machine I thought for a not insignificant amount of time that my form was bad and I was hurting my back.
Turns out my form was good and I was just getting that GOOD ache from my back muscles getting stronger π
This kind of explains a lot about my life
Love how this isn't funny at all until you realise where it's posted
... Twitter?
This is me trying to switch to Graphene OS. π
What issues are you having with GrapheneOS? I've installed it on several different devices and it's been super easy.
Not OP but I'm replying anyway with the hope that there may now be a workaround that I'm not aware of. My initial issue was that the Google Home app no longer worked at the login screen so I couldn't control my lights without unlocking my phone but I believe they fixed that.
Currently the deal breaker is the fact that we apparently can't use Google Wallet on Graphene so I'd have to start carrying my physical wallet again.
I thought since I'm already switching away from Google, I could also move away from Microsoft, but whatever I try, I can't find a replacement for To Do. We have family accounts with mailbox.org, where we can share task lists/folders, but I can't get the PWA to send me push notifications. I can import my task folders via DAVx5, but CalDAV doesn't work with shared folders, so I only get my personal tasks. And this is the same for all tools - either use CalDAV (no shared lists) or a web interface (no notifications). I've been running in circles for days and I'm very frustrated by now.
Did you enable push notifications on your browser and/or try a different browser? I ran into a similar problem when I started using PWAs because I disabled notifications a long time ago because why would I want my browser to notify me but I forgot that PWAs ARE the browser. You'll also want to check if it is an actual PWA or just saved as a bookmark on the home screen. Try deleting it and then saving it again and noting if it asks to install or not. If not there may be a more specific URL to use as a PWA. You may have to have Play Services on for notifications, use an alternative, or give the browser unrestricted battery.
Also, we sometimes have to do what we have to do. I redownloaded Snapchat solely for my sister because she is busy with her many kids and is used to sending pics/videos of them to multiple people at once and can't be bothered to move to Signal. And that's not a problem with Graphene, you're just having trouble completely detaching from big tech. You're not alone in that. Don't get discouraged though, it's a journey, not a destination.
I enables push notifications and unrestricted battery usage for Google Play Services and multiple browsers which I tested. I always used "install" to create the PWA. Nothing works and I still don't know if it's me or the stupid website/PWA.
You have to enable network, notifications, and unrestricted battery for both Play Services & Play Store (even if you don't use it), and Play Services Framework if that installed alongside the other two (usually on older phones).
Did you install Play Services before the first time you launched the browser? If not or you're not sure, uninstall and reinstall the browser.
Thank you for trying to help, you're very kind. Thanks to a comment on one of my posts on Mastodon I found out that I can get browser notifications, just not from a PWA, or maybe just not from that one. I now found a hopefully better way to manage my to dos and get notifications for them.
You're welcome. Nice, what was the method you found?
For me, it was definitely a hard thing I was supposed to work through. There are things that don't work as well after transitioning to GrapheneOS, but more than anything it's just helped me use my phone less (which was an ongoing goal of mine). I do most of my banking on my laptop now, which is probably better for my mental health than constantly checking my finances and stressing myself out. Outings are a lot more enjoyable now. I also switched from an unlimited data plan to a plan with 2GB a month, so I just leave my mobile data off unless I really need it.
Dark Souls baby!
Unpopular maybe opinion:
Hashing things through / working things out refers both to letting go or doing hard things you don't want to do, to be sure.
The reason that there is almost no confusion between what things are hard to do, and what things are difficult to let go of, is that although we generally acknowledge they are similar in nature, they require completely different solutions, and we often instinctively know which is which, to the degree that we can talk with buddies and just know they are processing a "threshold task" or need to let go of something.
If we do not instinctively know, it is almost always the latter, something that is difficult to let go of, that is pretending to be a hard thing you must do. They can fill your mind with mind traps and masquerade as things it's not, by appealing to your aversion. What to remember with these, especially if recurring is that when that task is complete, you aren't really finished. Revenge is a good example of this.
You will easily identify these by asking yourself sincerely what would happen if you completely ignored the problem. Often it would not be fatal and can then be categorized forever as a hurdle that is meant to fly away, and handled by rehabilitizing your Mind step by step.
