I did not know that about Magic Earth. I’ll have to test that out on my next trip into the city.

Can’t wait for some people to cite increased voter turnout as evidence of fraud!

I think you’re on to something w/ transition scale or animation scale, even though I’m not seeing them in GrapheneOS settings even after activating developer mode. I may just need to request this feature in GrapheneOS or look for a third party app that unlocks this setting. You’ve also given me a new phrase to search for, so thank you for that.

EDIT: I found Transition Scale and Animation Scale in GrapheneOS after activating developer mode, not sure what I did differently this time. Alas, neither of those settings solves the problem, so the hunt continues.

I’m not using any screen protector on my new phone (not yet anyway). I don’t think it’s an issue with screen sensitivity. How I see it, the issue is that in order to advance the screen left or right (say in an image carousel), I have to stretch my thumb really far over to the left side of the screen. If I don’t reach really far over, and just do a lazy right flick instead, the screen registers the touch and moves right a little bit, but when I lift my thumb, the current screen just springs back into place instead of advancing to the next screen. It’s most noticeable when viewing screenshots in the app store.

I’ve tested with Smooth Display, but still have the same issue. I think that setting has more to do with screen refresh rates and animations. I don’t think Touch Sensitivity is it, either. This seems more to do with making it easier to register touches with a screen protector. The problem that I have is not registering touches, it’s that when I swipe (e.g. left or right to sift through an image carousel), the original screen springs back into position instead of advancing to the next screen. It happens a lot in the app store when I’m using my thumb to browse the screenshots. I swipe left b/c I want to view the second screenshot, but the first screenshot moves over but not enough to advance to the second screenshot. It just snaps back into place and I’m still looking at the first screenshot. Same issue in reverse when I’m using my thumb to swipe right, it’s like it wants me to start the swipe gesture from too far left on the screen where it’s not very easy to reach, and it’s not ergonomic to have to basically wiggle the phone in my hand to reach that far over to start the swipe gesture. In summary, it’s a navigation issue, not a touch screen issue—I hope I’m making sense. Thanks anyway for chiming in, though.

I don’t see this option on GrapheneOS, even after toggling on developer mode. Thanks anyway for chiming in.

Editing to clarify that there is a setting called Smooth Display, and another called Force Peak Refresh Rate, but neither of these helps with the issue I’m having, which is that I’m constantly having to swipe multiple times to get the gesture to take.

Thanks for the tip—I did not know that. I’ll give it some more time and practice w/ quicker swipes. I’m on the Pixel 7a.

Got it, thank you so much!

Thanks, I’ll take a look at Revanced. The top two search results on DDG are revanced.net and revanced.to. The third and fourth results are two different githubs with “revanced” in the name. Is there a tried and true community approved way to get it?

I’m not sure about bicycle=designated in this case. From the wiki page that you linked:

Note that signed bicycle route is not something that makes road explicitly designated for use by cyclists and there are cycleways without any signed bicycle route.

Judging from the confusion and guessing in the comments, it’d probably be best if you posted a link to the area you’re asking about.

ETA based on your description of the road in question, I’d suggest cycleway=no to indicate that there is no explicit cycling infrastructure on that stretch of road, bicycle=yes to indicate that bicycling is allowed on that stretch of road, and tag that stretch of road as a member of the bicycle route relation.

Got ‘em.

As mappers we can link OSM objects to images, but the images themselves must be hosted elsewhere because OSM is not an image hosting service. You can upload the images of your parkour landmarks to wikimedia commons, flickr, or really any image hosting service, then update the tags for the POIs in OSM.

As for saving the POIs, most apps that use OSM have favorites or bookmarks, for example, I know OsmAnd does, and I’d bet Organic Maps does, too. I know OsmAnd also has a way of displaying the images linked to a POI, so what you’d do is bookmark your parkour landmarks in an app like OsmAnd, then you should be good to go.

Mind if I ask which VPN service you use?

I think the original commenter is saying they do not plan to replace it with something running W11.

Keep in mind that instances (not just communities, but instances) come and go. Worst case, if an instance dies, yes, a community can move to a new instance, but you might want to consider several factors when choosing an instance to start a new community.

• How long has the instance been around?
• How is the instance hosted, governed, funded? Donations, non-profit, some rando’s spare laptop, etc.
• Which other instances are they federated with, and which instances are they not federated with?
• Are the instance admins active?
• How often do the admins update the instance to the latest version of Lemmy software?
• Other personal preferences, e.g., does the instance have alternate front ends, etc.

If you decide to just take over one of the existing communities whose current admins are no longer active, you can request for the LW admins to appoint you as moderator of said communities. Do try reaching out to the existing admins first. But yeah, if nothing else, you could then facilitate a transition to the new instance, e.g., poll the active users to see if they want to move, and if so, then lock the community and post a link so new users can find the other instance.

Keep in mind that executive orders can be easily rolled back by the next chief executive without going through the legislature. Executive orders are a tool that can be used for good, as in this case, but it’s just something to keep in mind.

Sauce? I tried searching and couldn’t find anything (at least not on the first page of results). Thanks.
