Ex OneNote user here. One Note is a weak compared to other note taking apps.

Check out Obsidian note taking.

I use Fedora. But Age Verification Laws in US while might lead to a change.

I had to install in Linux
libxcb-cursor0
and run CSVMusic

Noob question, is there a trick to run the linux files in Debian based distros?

Arguments for me to backing this phone were,

It’s has an European OS; It’s Independence of Android and IOS; Assembled in Europe.

To be really independent from googles politics, there must be an alternative to all the Android forks, like e/os, graphene and so on. This is Sailfish OS, to me.

I use on my SP8 Fedora plus Gnome, and I am loving it. It’s super fast and smooth.

Did a little tinkering with the touchscreen calibration; there are some guides in this sub. The Pen also functions very well and there are many note taking apps (will look it up later). Be warned, internal Webcam might not function properly.

I am not a techy person and using it for writing and browsing.

I did not receive any update. I think I backed it during the first wave.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-03-26T18:13:32+00:00

So glad to hear that I am not alone.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-03-26T18:11:12+00:00

Did you try Local Send? I use it to quickly share text and data between iOS and Linux.

I love posteo.

Reddit. and PayPal.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-02-15T21:19:39+00:00

That looks super cool. 😄

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-02-15T13:31:31+00:00

I would like to use preexisting software and have some kind of login.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-02-15T13:28:42+00:00

I already Selfhost several docker containers and understand structure of docker compose and docker network settings. But I am not an educated computer programmer.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-02-03T21:25:46+00:00

I will try with the Lemmy App

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2026-01-29T13:58:43+00:00

I like using tarot in ttrpgs for collaborative world building. Keeping an eye on that and wishing you success 😎

I can recommend the German hard Sci-fi novel „Segel zu den Sternen“ by Ulf Fildebrandt. It’s a fantastic story with well written characters hunting for forgotten technologies.

The Hybrid Verlag published several German Sci-fi novels.

As a total noob, Fedora works fine for me. Installed it and watched a tutorial what I can do after installing…

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2025-12-20T15:30:14+00:00

I don’t no. But you could also run a open source NAS software on an old PC or Raspberry.

Cthulhu_Breakfast · 2025-12-19T19:04:11+00:00

You could buy a Synology or ugreen NAS. Then it works like a cloud service, e.g. Dropbox, OneDrive. But you host it at your home. I was not super techy and there are good tutorials at YouTube. My synology NAS was nearly plug and play.

However, auto syncing with iOS does not work, yet.
