    The craziest thing I discovered when I started using it was when I noticed that because my desktop was now connected to my phone and my phone was connected to my watch, I could completely control the media on both from my watch and the integration felt natural - but also something I haven't seen work that well in the proprietary world.

      LocalSend should be called God Send because it'll save your life. It's AirDrop, but for everything and open source. Works really well, no setup, no server.

        I wish I could send a whole folder of files at once with this, mine seems to only work one file at a time.

          I love mullvad but im getting more and more captchas recently. Plus some streaming services only work without it. This is very sad, do any of the alternatives reduce this anti user behaviour or do i just have to live with it?

              PairDrop like Localsend or Airdrop but working on anything that has an internet connection and a resonably new web Browser! You can share files even when on different networks, by pairing devices. Works like a charm.

                      to publish ios apps you need to run xcode, last time I checked (admittedly it's been 7ish years) - and you need to build on mac hardware. none of which is cheap, especially for devs who don't see any additional revenue from their ios apps.

                        MakeHuman is a 3D character creation software designed to simplify the creation of virtual humans through a graphical user interface. The software allows users to create realistic human characters by adjusting parameters like gender, age, height, weight, and ethnicity through slider controls. Characters can be customized with clothes, hair, poses, and materials from the built-in library and exported to 3D soft, like Blender.

                                Forgejo (pronounced /forˈd͡ʒe.jo/ (hear an audio sample)) is inspired by forĝejo, the Esperanto word for forge.

                                Or simply for-jay-oh
