Well, it's the one we've got for now

Go to advanced settings on your HeliBoard app and look for "Load gesture typing library" or similar. Go to HeliBoard GitHub and look for instructions on downloading the library.

Make sure the downloaded library architecture is the specified by the message you'll see when you click "Load gesture typing library".

It's just 30 seconds and you'll be gesture typing.

I just tried HeliBoard. Ditching Florisboard for now. I still think Florisboard has potential but it is undeveloped, and HeliBoard has everything you'd expect for a Gboard open source substitution. Let's go! Finally we have our first open source keyboard alternative without drawbacks!

That is for waking from sleep, or from shutdown?

Don't worry, we are sure you Wayland haters will keep up some obscure X distro with a spacebar-heater feature while the rest of the world keeps moving forward.

Looks good, but seems a bit outdated? Are you using it?

[โ€“] unknowing8343@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As I said... I know of its existance but it seems like distribution channels are non-existant, which makes me precautious about using it.

Can you turn off the computer with KDE Connect?

The main goal of these projects (SearxNG, Piped, Invidious, Nitter...) is to make it way harder to track users by having thousands of users make requests from one single place. If you host this service just for yourself... you'd get the same tracking as using the service itself.

Self-hosting just for yourself damages the community a bit because your data will not be used to confuse Google and the other guys.

I don't think it makes sense to self-host these services, unless you plan to open it up for everyone.
