### How To Navigate on DeGoogled Phones

There are great open-source navigation apps for Android available on the F-Droid App Store, but they have one serious drawback ... and that is they can't find most addresses. Fortunately there is a work-around for this.

On F-Droid, the GMaps WV app will use and abuse Google Maps to get the coordinates of the address you seek, and then forward them to the open-source Navigation App of your choice, all the while blocking Google's telemetry attempts.

Two popular open-source navigation apps are OsmAnd and Organic Maps. Both are available from the F-Droid App Store.

Thanks to GMaps WV, the issue of not being able to find addresses has been mitigated until OpenStreet Maps gets to where address lookup works. OpenStreet Maps has made huge improvements in this area just in the last year.

Libiquity is a company located in the rural mountains of Pennsylvania that offers Linux computers that try to adhere to the FSF (Freedom Software Foundation) standards, which run only FOSS software, and FOSS firmware and hardware drivers on their computers.

Although Libiquity is currently on holiday due to a family emregency, we are adding them to our list of merchants offering Linux computers because they will likely be operating again in the future.

Their Taurinus X200 laptop comes with Trisquel Linux, which is one of the few officially FSF approved GNU Operating Systems, and boots using Libreboot.

If you are curious about other Free Software Foundation (FSF) approved Linux distros, you can see their list here.

>The Cosmic desktop environment is a new DE brought to us by System76

System76's long awaited Cosmic desktop environment is finally here in it's first Alpha release.

If you want to try out Cosmic, running on the PopOS! distribution, you can grab a copy of the disk image ๐Ÿ‘‰ here.

Ventoy would be great for trying out Cosmic on a USB stick. (Just note that running anything from a USB stick is much slower.)

### Flameshot Screenshot Tool
(Applies to All Desktop Environments)

>Bind Flameshot to your "PrntScrn" Button.

Flameshot is a better screenshot tool than the screenshot tools that typically come with distros by default.

## Debian Based
To make Flameshot your default screenshot tool on Debain based distros, follow these steps.

1. Install flameshot

<br>sudo apt install flameshot<br>

2. Make sure xbindkeys is installed

<br>sudo apt install xbindkeys xdotool<br>

3. Add these lines to the .xbindkeysrc file.
(.xbindkeysrc is in your home folder. If it's not there, create it.)

<br># Bind Flameshot to PrntScrn key<br>"flameshot gui"<br>Print<br>

4. Restart xbindkeys

<br>killall xbindkeys<br>xbindkeys<br>

5. Add xbindkeys to startup applications.
(This varies between
desktop environments.)
## Additional Steps for Cinnamon Desktop
6. If you are using Cinnamon, you need to change the "Take a Screenshot" keyboard shortcut to something else, such as Alt+End so Cinnamon's doesn't override xbindkeys' Print key.

- System
- Screendshots and Recording

Sure there are more, but mostly just six are used. A package manger is kind of like an app store. You don't get to choose your main package manager. Your Linux distro picks that.

The three most common main package managers are:

  1. apt/dpkg (for Debian based distros)
  2. pacman (for Arch based distros)
  3. dnf / yum (for Red Hat based distros)

Then there are newer methods for installing packages across multiple distros. These are:

  1. Flatpak
  2. Appimage (doesn't install system wide)
  3. Snapcraft (avoid this one, not true open-source)

Nick Explains

Nick from "The Linux Experiment" does an excellent job of explaining Linux package formats in this video over on TilVids. (Nick left Odysee because he doesn't like platforms that support true freedom.)

If you are a understandably a little confused about all the Linux options, watch Nick's video a couple of times.

In the end it is usually best to install your distro's official repository package unless you want or need a program's latest, greatest features, then you would go with Flatpak or Appimage.

Avoid Snapcraft.

### PineTab2 and PineTab-V

Linux tablet options are very limted, so it's nice to know about all options. The PineTab2 and the PineTab-V Linux tablets have been available for over a year.

They both come in a 4GB/64GB and an 8GB/128GB memory/storage variant.

The PinTab2 runs on an ARM processor, and comes with a silver/gray metal & plastic casing.

The PineTab-V runs on a RISC-V processor, and comes in a black metal & plastic casing.

Since the PineTab2 runs an ARM processor, it comes with software, and thanks to years of Linux development on ARM processors, there should be plenty of software available for it. Some features are still a work in progress, such as the cameras. It could be an inexpensive fun device for those that would like to tinker with a Linux tablet.

The PineTab-V runs a newer RISC-V open-source processor, so it ships without software, and there is very limited software available for it. The PineTab-V is for developers only, and probably will be for years to come.

The hope with the open source RISC-V processor is that in the near future we will have a CPU for Linux that is free from any Big Tech spy-hardware.

You can order them at Pine64.com.

### RaspPi Alternatives

There are many great alternatives to Raspberry Pi's popping up all over the place.

Here are a few Single Board Computer (SBC) manufacturers we discovered trying to find something that would run a Nextcloud server, or a KODI media center.

Orange Pi

O Droid

Pine64 (ARM & RISC V)

Libre Computer

RockPi (ARM & Intel)

LattePanda (Intel)

Milk V (RISC V)

BeagleBoard

Most of these single board computers will may very likely NOT run Nextcloud, but they do have potential to replace Raspberry Pis in many other areas.
