A broken device won't be running the default OS anyway.

The point of this is to take all the working hardware that is currently running a soon unsupported version of Windows, which can't be updated to a supported one because the hardware does not support the newer version, and make it run supported software, so the user does not discard the hardware.

So you are actually asking for a self-hosted email server, that has an Android client and supports push. ๐Ÿ˜†

My latest campaign of about 5 years wrapped up just late last year too. It's a great feeling when people have done what they feel they needed to do and you sunset a campaign.

This year I have started as a player in a new campaign. It's weird not having to prep for a couple of hours before each session.

Indeed. I missed that. Thanks.

Frontend is open source, but the server backend does not seem to be.

So not sure why this is in Self-hosted, as you can't really selfhost this platform. Or I'm missing some repo that sets up the backend...

That's really sad to see. I hope the courts dismiss the cease & desist because it's different name, and lack of popularity of the trademarked name.

software that connects to Chinese servers

You can set up your own server, so it doesn't have too.

only place to get Rustdesk is from the developers.

Shouldn't it be like this though. Rustdesk is in the AUR, which downloads the source from Github, like a lot of other software packages does. You can also build it yourself.

The developers behind it are effectively faceless

https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk has contributors listed, so not exactly what I would call "faceless". Sure, there is not really any real names on it, but having real names on Open Source projects in github is not the norm.

Please elaborate on this. What risks are introduces?

I use The Movie Database (https://tmdb.org/) to find things to watch.

Ah, I'm certain you can use sshfs from KDE Connect on your desktop to browse through the files on the phone. Depending on how the videos are stored, you should be able to find them on the Internal Storage drive. Unless it's DRM enabled videos, then it's locked down behind the app sandbox.

Just to clarify.

You want the KDE Connect app to have direct access to video files on your Samsung phone?

Is there a specific reason you can't just use the media browser on the phone and use the "Share" feature in that to send it to KDE Connect Send To Device?
