i use firefox with a lot of extensions, making the shortcut widget with the built-in add to home screen function won't work because it'll open the site with extensions disabled.

i've managed to make it work better by making the shortcut with internet disabled which opens the link in the actual firefox app but that gives the shortcut app a generic icon which looks bad.

i've searched around and there are apps that make shortcuts but no luck finding a foss one.

i feel like lemmy skews older than the rest of the internet

i also made an anonymous poll because data is cool

or to make the worst impression ig

Any media in any format, sequels not included.

i found one on fdroid but it was old and the directory selector was broken and couldn't really work outside of it's default for some reason, it also rendered the page i'm trying to use really weirdly, like it wasn't sending some file over and the css got borked.

Found one that wasn't foss, installed it, opened it, "buy premium to unlock this feature", uninstalled it.

i've been searching for a while but none of the ones i find are great, the one i landed on hasn't been updated in over a year

i've been trying to get rid of non-foss garbage as much as possible but i haven't found anything to replace the microsoft launcher yet, a few good candidates but they were all either underbaked or too unstable to use. Any suggestions?

that you're willing to share obviously

I'm pretty comftable with linux mint right now but i want to peruse the wares so to speak, what are some cool or interesting distros that do things differently than mint?

Edit: i dont wanna distro hop people cool your jets, i just wanna look around cos i find it neat :3

Funds are limited at the moment and i'd rather not have a monthly subscription to worry about.
i'm not in the US, if that changes anything

i installed tor to use z-lib cos the clearnet site got taken down. wondering what sites to use to find cool or interesting stuff, and which ones to avoid for the aforementioned horrid images

I've seen multiple people here talk about lucky patcher and wanted to try it out, found the official site though reddit (cos I've had google give me badware links for things like these before) and the site rang every alarm bell in my brain.
From the too-good-to-be-true premise to the red text before the download saying that the app is Perfectly Safe, scanned the apk with virustotal (not perfectly accurate i know) and it returned a bunch of flags.

So is luckypatchers.com the actual site?

Edit: got the apk from the direct download link in the subreddit's about page and ran it on waydroid, seemed legit but also very old and the custom patches would just make the app (YouTube in this case) close instantly.
Might be some google service detecting something's off or maybe the patch is just outdated.
