RIP Nova Launcher
  • Same... Though with the latest Android it's been so buggy I gave Smart Launcher a try for the past few months and have mostly been happy with it. It's annoying that I can't easily have 3 screens with one in the center being the start but I got over it.

  • What is your use case for navigating? I feel like if I'm in a new place OrganicMaps isn't so great for discovering POI. But if I'm in a place I already know decently it's pretty rare I need navigation anyway. I'd like to use OrganicMaps more though :)

    We might need to add some more logic to the recommendation algorithm
  • Huh. I saw cashback many years ago on tv or something but could never figure out the name even after a lot of googling. And here we are I've finally found it thanks to you. Maybe I'll give it another watch. For a long time I've thought about the thing of not looking at the clock when doing unpleasant activities. Thanks!

    Is there any tool to show a timeline github repository events?
  • Thanks these are definitely a step in the direction of what I'm looking for!

  • This is so freaking cool thanks for sharing! Would be cool if the author auto kept a gallery of before and after for each place to show how much it is improving places.
