I learned while gardening that when you lay manure to fertilise, the direction of the wind will determine the neighbors you upset. Just being yourself is going to upset someone at some point and it's entirely out of our control.

    I would disagree my friend, everyone deserves a vote. The segregation of any people from democracy, including "dumbass rednecks", is a view that promotes seperation in a time when unity is the only solution. From a position of inclusion, love, patience and compassion, we must lift up together as one.

    similar to what's happening in the US and will eventually be 'solved' by age verification and digital IDs. Don't be fooled by the different names of the countries, this is a global initiative.

    Help installing and using ydotool in Wayland Ubuntu (lemmy.world)
     

    I am a new Linux user and have settled on Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS in Wayland. In Windows, I used AutoHotKey to automate the keyboard to type repetitive text strings with a hotkey e.g. pressing Alt+E to type my@email.com

    I believe the solution in Linux is to install an application like dotool or ydotool and then create a custom shortcut command. The problem is I cannot get dotool and ydotool to work. I'll document the issues I'm having with ydotool as there seems to be more awareness and support for this application.

    I am following the instillation instructions here:

    https://askubuntu.com/questions/1413829/how-can-i-install-and-use-the-latest-ydotool-keyboard-automation-tool-working-o

    Everything seems to go fine until I get to this step and get the following error:

    sudo systemctl enable ydotoold

    Failed to enable unit: Unit file ydotoold.service does not exist.

    I came across this issue which suggests it could be a permissions issue on /dev/uinput and tried to the solution provided in that post but I still can't enable ydotoold after a reboot.

    Running this command works:

    ydotoold --version

    v1.0.4-38-g708e96f

    But I am stuck here and not sure how to troubleshoot or progress further. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

    QOL Improvement Suggestions (lemmy.world)
     

    Would be nice to see these QOL features added:

    1. When changing account using the left pull out bar, uit would be nice if a user could tap the currently logged in user name to drop down the list of users instead of only being able to tap the three dots. Very frustrating when trying to change accounts one handed.
    2. Pressing Android system 'back' button when in settings minimises the app when it should move back to the pull out drawer and again to go back to the feed.

    Thumbnail image scaling or cropping issue (lemmy.world)
    submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by to c/lemmyconnect@lemmy.ca
    comment fedilink
     

    One issue I wanted to discuss is when a post thumbnail image is cropped or not-scaled to fit on my screen.

    I have the "Limit thumbnails height" setting turned off, which mostly ensures the full image of a post is displayed. However, more and more I'm seeing thumbnail images cropped due to width and I have to open the image to see the full image.

    Is anyone else having this issue? Is it the expected behaviour of the app? Is my desire to see the full image of each post on my feed as I scroll ridiculous?

    Thanks.
