How are you liking OMV5? Pros/cons?
so is mine 💁♂️
I used Ubuntu for a while and distro-hopped before deciding to land on Debian. I figured major distros used it as their base for a reason. The older I get the more I appreciate the "it'll release when its ready" approach that Debian takes. There's no economic pressure to release with major bugs hoping the next sprint will fix most issues, like a lot of "enterprise" software. The Debian release cycle is not 100% predictable, but it is reliable. I've had a server go through a few major upgrades for nearly a decade before the hardware itself gave out. The OS was rock solid the entire time. Additionally, with flatpak, outdated desktop apps are no longer an issue and I use docker for hosting services.
I will admit that Debian is pretty "bland" from a fresh install, but I don't mind that at all.
Wow. I've struggled using the "traditional" method and this is so much better. Thanks!
ah, well that's a reasonable take. cool profile pic btw!
okay? so stop making progress because some games might not work? doesn't sound reasonable.
I get that, but Meta/Facebook has a massive track record of not giving a shit about its users. I wouldn't recommend trusting them, they've shown their true colors many times over.
I agree, but I'd say it meets the needs of most users. Anyone that needs additional features should try osmand.
but still leaks a lot of metadata to Facebook/Meta
I'd recommend Organic Maps before OsmAnd+ nowadays. I've found it performs better and is easier to navigate. Power users may want to stick with OsmAnd+.
From their site:
Organic Maps: Offline Hike, Bike, Trails and Navigation
Organic Maps is a free Android & iOS offline maps app for travelers, tourists, hikers, and cyclists based on top of crowd-sourced OpenStreetMap data. It is a privacy-focused, open-source fork of Maps.me app (previously known as MapsWithMe), maintained by the same people who created MapsWithMe in 2011.
Organic Maps is one of a few applications nowadays that supports 100% of features without an active Internet connection. Install Organic Maps, download maps, throw away your SIM card (by the way, your operator constantly tracks you), and go for a weeklong trip on a single battery charge without any byte sent to the network.
you could set it up on a non standard port like 99. you have to manually add ":99" at the end of your domain name, but it works.
