Typically people that get called tankies defend the USSR, or China, or any other authoritarian socialist government by saying that shit was either completely made up by the west, or say that "the U.S. does it too and worse", or anything else to avoid acknowledging the human rights abuses that have happened under the authoritarian socialist regimes.

You can usually find them here in places like lemmygrad or hexbear. It's a spectrum, some people side with Russia with the Ukraine invasion others think things like the uyghur genocide in Xinjiang is just capitalist propaganda.

Here's a good example of Second Thought doing it, constantly comparing things to what the U.S. does, which obviously are bad but just because the U.S. does it doesn't mean that China can get away with it: https://youtu.be/NhPOrkGbpxk

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to communists who express support for one-party communist regimes that are associated with Marxism–Leninism, whether contemporary or historical. It is commonly used by anti-authoritarian leftists, including anarchists, libertarian socialists, left communists, democratic socialists, and reformists to criticise Leninism, although the term has seen increasing use by liberals and right‐wing factions as well.[5][6]

I've had mine since they launched and haven't had any major complaints, I'd my Linux experience so far has been about same as on previous laptops. Though I will say that it does get fairly toasty.

Also do you know what GPLv3 means? Open-source into perpetuity they can't alter the license legally

What do you mean by background sync, like it syncing as a background service without needing to open up the app?

Unfortunately, nested notebooks are still in the planning stage but they are on the road map. It's also something that I would really like to see added, but for right now since I get unlimited tags and notebooks and you can also select a couple of colors I've made a "tech" notebooks and made tags like "linux "lemmy" and things like that and then I can just stack the tags and if need be add a color to it to differentiate it further. I wouldn't say that Joplin is bad just that leaves a lot to be desired and especially things that I really need for my day to day and just like that is integrated to notesnook. Right now they're almost done with adding different app formats but nested notebooks is pretty soon on the list

On some level I agree with you, though I've justified it by thinking about it as also a regular yearly contribution to the project that I would otherwise forget about doing while using something FOSS

On the free tier you have 3 notebooks, on paid it's unlimited and yeah the notebooks are essentially folders. The way I have mine setup is a general notebook for a certain topic and then tags to subdivide; you can also assign colors to notes. Also I should mention, there's a built in publishing / sharing feature that let's you give out links for people to view your notes.

Stacked notebooks are still in the roadmap so it'll take a little while to be able to put notebooks inside notebooks.

True, can't knock you down for sticking with obsidian, it's a really good app and like you said it's already a bit more mature. The way I see it, notesnook is one of those things you keep in your back pocket when you need an alternative, like for me, when obsidian and Joplin started giving me issues and impacting my workflow I needed an alternative.

Just wanted to share my experience with notesnook as a daily note taking and information organizer app. The free tier is fairly barebones but you can use it for simple stuff, but I'll say that the paid $50 per year tier is really nice. I'm surprised at the polish and feature set for a OSS project from 2019 but it's also really euphoric to find something private, secure, sleek, feature rich, and OSS

Bookwyrm Android Client (midwest.social)

Does anyone know if there might be an android client for Bookwyrm. F-droid has one but it's not been update in 5 months. I tried using fedi-lab but it couldn't seem to connect to the instance I'm using

Does anyone know off the top of their head if gadgetbridge supports watches with ECG function? I have a fitbit charge 5 which isn't supported so I was wondering if I could replace my fitbit with one that is supported and has the ECG functionality

Anyone have any advice on how to choose between TruNAS, openmediavault, etc for homelab. I want to run nextcloud and jellyfin and maybe some VMs, though I also don't really think that RAID is the best option for future proofing but I could be wrong.

Smart watches (midwest.social)

I'm trying to move away from a fitbit, once in a while I forget to charge it and I have to install the app and fork over all of my data to fitbit to set the time.

Anyone have any recommendations, I need something with a decent heart monitor, that's really the only thing I care about.
