Fedi #GNU #Linux community: Do any of you know how to get a Mandinka language keyboard option on Android, ideally to be used in Signal?

The site anythingtranslate.com is so far the only site I've found that can do English to Mandinka translation.

I want to help a friend in the Gambia set up his phone such that he can switch the keyboard from English to Mandinka (the symbols in Mandinka are not in the same alphabet).

Does native Mastodon (preferably the PWA) have a way to remember the most recent post I've seen and jump to that post when I open the page/app? I think I'd like to switch to using the PWA, but I'm currently using Tusky on Android for specifically that feature.

(Yes, I follow few enough accounts and tags for this to be very viable.)

#Sketchup is the gold standard for fleshing out the odd carpenting idea… but is there ANY #FOSS alternative? Relying on a tool that has changed hands a bunch of time feels precarious and I’d much rather use an local-first software.

Not looking for advanced CAD nor full Blender-type solutions.

Hey fedi, especially German speaking fedi, I’m looking for good media to immerse myself in as I begin learning German! I’m at the very start of things so I’m not in any huge rush but I intend on keeping up regularly on training myself in the language.

So, what are your favorite German books? Music? TV shows? Movies? They can be of any “level”, as I will be working my way through things as I learn more of the language. This is only one part of what I’m planning on using for learning, so again feel free to recommend your favorite media

I have a friend who is trying to build a conference covid policy for an organization which might actually listen.

Please share your most useful resources for keeping people safe here so I can pass them along.

Edit: adding hashtags...

I’m aware that it's pretty early in the technology cycle to ask this…

I’m looking for recommendations on #Bluetooth LE Audio, #Auracast capable transmitters that can get their audio input via XLR, ¼″/6.3mm or 3.5mm audio jack.
My (special) requirement would be to have < 10ms of latency, ro live performances. The lower latency the better!

15m range should be OK, for a roughly 100m² room.

Any hints on products available in the EU are welcome!

I'm looking for PC games that involve a lot of exploration and discovery.

Hollow Knight is awesome, but too difficult for me (also, with cheats I have already completed it)

Slime Rancher was fun, but the whole "One person has been everywhere already and left you messages" was meh.

Outer Wilds might have been what I'm looking for, except I saw a bunch of it played so a lot of the discoveries are spoiled for me.

Does anything come to mind?

Hey Fedi Internet search is garbage, so I'm hoping some of you can help. I'm looking to replace my office's cloud #backup software and looking for non-US options. I know of pCloud, any others you'd recommend?

Requirements:
* Client side encryption (ideally zero knowledge)
* Able to specify any number of folders to back up, ideally each with their own scheduling and ignore lists
* File history and deleted file recovery
* User controlled but company managed
* Device sync not necessary

Question to gamedevs: Do you play your own games for fun or only in the context of development?

Whenever I play my own games, I only see the flaws or compare them to better products.

Though I always wanted to also play my own games for fun, not just when I add a new feature, improvement or fix a bug.

How about you?

Is there some fedi account I can follow which will tell me when there is space stuff I should go outside and look up at?

I hate missing stuff like auroras :/

It would have to be something where one can follow an account specific for the area one lives in, Denmark in my case.

bedtime question!
any of my #transgender homies here ever used Plume? and if so, feelings about the service? #poll but comments also welcome. (boosts always welcome on public toots.)
