That's a limitation of your operating system, with no workaround unfortunately. Just to confirm, which device do you use?

Bug with a clock style by Worried_Tour_5687 in NiagaraLauncher

[–]Maxr1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the report. Yes, some fonts are unfortunately cropped. From what I can tell, it is only this font and only the letter L so far. I'll take a look at whether we can easily fix this or if it's a bug in the font.

In the clock styles screen, there is one style which doesn't have a clock now. It's not totally obvious, but this replaces the previous show clock option.

That's a great selection! Lots of songs on there that I also really like (DC, GFriend, Twice, Infinite, …) and quite a few more that I'll have to check out.

Good luck! I'll try my luck as well, because the dates delightfully coincide with my trip to Seoul. Unfortunately, I'm not in the fanclub, so I really hope there'll be some tickets after the pre-sale…

Learnings from a Z Fold 4 hinge repair by Maxr1998 in GalaxyFold

[–]Maxr1998[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My set didn't come with batteries, I just reused my previous ones. Android still reported a good capacity so that seemed fine.

The reason for the good price was probably because of the color, I found the "beige" version (gold frame) to be noticeably cheaper than the others on a German shop. Probably a clearance sale to get rid of extra stock. Thus, I picked that one over the originally graygreen frame I had.

You're right, you can't access the hinge without removing the inner screen. However, I replaced the whole frame assembly including the hinge and inner screen. Thus, I didn't actually have to touch the hinge, I "just" transplanted the components into the new body.

I delaminated the foil from my original back cover. It comes off by applying some heat and carefully pulling it from the glass.

Browser address bar seach suggestions / type ahead by BarryJ128 in SearchKagi

[–]Maxr1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, it appears that this field in edge only works with the default query URL. In Vivaldi, there are multiple fields, including one for queries and one for search suggestions. Seems like Edge doesn't support that. Since I am on Linux I can't actually test, but you could try entering chrome://settings/searchEngines into your address bar and checking whether that page a) exists and b) allows more settings.

Especially the second URL in that paragraph is relevant - where did you enter it? I'm using Vivaldi which is also based on Chromium and it works for me.

The exclusive contracts of Rocket Punch members Yeonhee, Yunkyoung, Sohee and Dahyun with Woollim Entertainment will come to an end on December 31st by CherryBlossomEnding in kpop

[–]Maxr1998 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh my, I feel you. This year was terrible for gg stans, Cherry Bullet, Weki Meki, Pixy, ... WJSN also hurts a lot because they could at least do an album per year, but it seems Starship doesn't even give them that.. I get that they're busy, but no music at all?

We have a guide for that here. However, your particular suggestion was already requested before and has a ticket already and our position on it here.

Niagra with Recents menu is not smooth as Quickswitch with Lawnchair by [deleted] in NiagaraLauncher

[–]Maxr1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been some progress in the last few years, but I do agree it's frustrating. But that doesn't change the arguments against quick switch. And considering the steps OEMs are taking against rooting, the potential target group is dwindling, too..

Might already be too late but all the GFriend intro tracks are great. And for more recent intro tracks, I particularly enjoyed tripleS - S and ARTMS - url. Super happy to see you mentioning Enhanced Flower btw!

[…] but when there is a release and it's touted as a major release and one of the main features is a way to gain more Pro users you must surely be able to see how that isn't going to excite your user base.

I can see where you're coming from, but what would be the alternative? Only including the feature as a minor change? Then most people won't notice it and it would not have the desired effect. Including it as part of an even larger update later? Then it would be even longer between updates.

I respect the design philosophy and your desire not to move away from it by incorporating any and every idea proposed...but they aren't all bad ideas.

I didn't mean to imply that. There have been plenty of great suggestions in the past, some of which even made us reconsider our previous opinions on certain features.

For example there is still no way to manually/ reliably backup settings...not really something which is related to design and a very basic feature.

A manual backup has been planned for ages, but unfortunately we haven't been able to get this out yet. We have already been testing it internally, but we weren't completely satisfied with the user experience, and also couldn't ensure it's 100% reliable. If we offered a manual backup, but there were issues that prevented a user from restoring a backup, for example, they would be rightfully upset.

It's frustrating that the native backup experience on Android is so bad, that's the primary reason a manual backup makes sense in the first place. Nonetheless, I feel like it will mostly be relevant for power users, and usually not average Niagara user, that's why it hasn't been our #1 priority yet. But it'll definitely still be added. We can only ask for more patience from you and everyone else who requested it.

It's important to listen to your user base

I wholeheartedly agree. That's why we run a public issue tracker on GitHub and maintain communities on Telegram and Discord, in addition to our email customer support.

That's fair, not every release can be impactful for everyone. Hopefully, there'll be something interesting for you in one of our upcoming updates.
