Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.
And then immediately cancel them.
I don’t trust anything Netflix makes. It doesn’t matter how good it is or how much the fans love it, if it doesn’t immediately blow up and eclipse Stranger Things, then it’s not big enough for them and gets axed.
In that case, something is invalidating the login. Are you sure that it is happening due to leaving your LAN, and not just coinciding with that?
Does restarting the laptop log you out, or temporarily disconnecting from the internet? Could you test by switching to a wifi hotspot on your phone, and switching back, for example?
The client stores your session token in the OS credentials manager (kwallet for linux kde, for example) and the issue can lie there, as well.
That’s definitely not how it should work. Leaving your LAN should not invalidate a session.
Is this in your browser, or are you talking about the desktop client?
Flathub and the AUR are by far the most comprehensive, and flatpaks works on a lot of distros. So I checked those.
They’ve also been getting their kinks worked out over the last few years and work much better than they used to.
That review you found is two years old and was for version 1.1. Current version is 1.4. Try it out today, if it’s been fixed leave another review letting people know. It seems to work just fine for me, but I haven’t used it before.
Material Maker is on Flathub, the AUR, and on Snapcraft (not up to date, but you shouldn’t use snap anyway).
No need for a manual install.
You’ll find a lot of software is available via package managers. Linux people don’t like installing anything without it being managed by a package manager so the installation and subsequent updates are automatic and occur alongside system updates. So when people find software they like, they’ll go out of their way to package and distribute it for others as well
Yes. But you didn’t.
Knowing what something does is important.
If you install a piece of software expecting it to do something it actually doesn’t, that can leave a security gap.
I wasn’t just correcting you. I was making sure you knew that if you install a “firewall” it won’t do the thing you’re looking for.
As for an actual answer, most distros will already ask you to confirm if you try to run a random appimage you downloaded.
But you shouldn’t need to do that in the first place. On linux, there’s not really any need to go running random programs downloaded using your web browser, since you can just download software from trusted reposotories that aren’t going to host malware to begin with.
Unlike on windows… You don’t need to risk it in the first place.
And I’m telling you a firewall won’t do that.
It won’t have anything to say at all about something you download and run.
It’s a completely different security feature. It handles potentially malicious network activity. Not software on your computer.
It’s not federated tho?
What do they mean when they call it that?
oh with the firewall saving me from myself I meant if I download something thinking it’s safe but isn’t
A firewall would not save you from that.
A firewall stops random incoming connections. But if you download and run something bad, that’d be an outgoing connection, since the malicious program is then already on your system.
Almost everything you do on desktop linux is already “outside the core os”.
This is mostly relevant for server software configuration, where you should run services with as few system privileges as possible. Preferably you isolate them entirely with a separate user with access to only the bare minimum it needs.
This way, if a service is compromised, it can’t be used to access the core system, because it never had such access in the first place. Only what it needed to do its own thing.
By default, nothing you run (web browser, steam, spotify, whatever) should be “running as admin”.
The only time you’ll do that on desktop linux, is when doing stuff that requires it. Such as installing a new app, or updating the system. Stuff that modifies the core os and hence needs access.
Basically, unless you needed to enter you password to run something, then it’s already “outside” the core os.
Huh?
Didn’t this already land in non-beta last month?

I used it just last week.
Why tf would I want capcut?
Well, you can apparently also use supercritical carbon dioxide.
That might be fun.
But you’re basically still boiling something to make it spin a magnet.
For real.
The law in a lot of places does not allow police to do anything to help someone, before their life has already been risked.
Unfortunately the first attempt on someone’s life can be just as lethal as a hypothetical second.
That’s nice.
Can police start believeing women who tell them they feel they are in danger, and do something about it before someone kills them, now?
That’s the one.
I also need to work out how to do automatic certificate renewal and if that’s even worth doing
This is what certbot is for. For example, with nginx, you just set up the webserver to be reachable via your domain.
You then install and run certbot, and it will aquire, install and configure, and then set itself up to auto-renew, a certificate. All with just one command.
With Nextcloud specifically I also don’t like the fact that you can’t change the domain after the initial setup
Yes you can?
I’ve done it thrice now.
Is this some limitation of the docker AIO stack?
FolderSync pairs nicely if you want some sync features on android.
On a desktop or laptop I’d just mount it as a drive.
If you really want automatic sync with offline availability, the Nextcloud desktop client has been solid for years now.
Indeed.
I’m not saying there aren’t NASes that do this. Unfortunately, there absolutely are.
Bionicle?
