It has swipe typing plus a lot of other new features/theme customisation that openboard didn't have.

are shotcut and kdenlive any good video editors? just curious by 8orange8 in c/foss@beehaw.org

Personally I think Kdenlive has the most user-friendly interface of any video- editor (pay software included) so I think it's ideal for a newcomer. It's also fairly light on system resource comparatively.

A few years ago, it used to have a reputation for being a bit buggy but seems to be very stable in my experience these days.

The main problem would be the lack of guides/tutorials, though there are a few on YouTube.

Cant login on jerboa since lemm.ee update earlier today? by 8orange8 in c/jerboa@lemmy.ml

Yeah, I had the same problem and the same thing fixed it. Fully log out, then log in. Seems like version 19 Changed authentication or something similar requiring a fresh sign-in.

hey - trying to switch from Chrome to Firefox, what are your recommended extensions and/or quality of life addins, etc? by 8orange8 in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

If you like Tree Style Tabs I'd also recommend trying Sideberry. Does the same thing but has some additional functionality.

LocalSend cross-platform application for transferring files on local network by 8orange8 in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

[-] 8orange8@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago

They have different usage scenarios.

LocalSend is for the occasional sending of files/folders from A to B or B to A (One direction only).

Syncthing's primary usage is for keeping the exact same copies of files on A and B automatically.

lemmy.world blocked the largest piracy community in all of lemmy by 8orange8 in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Not sure what OS you are using but make sure you have write permissions in the folder you've extracted the app to. If you're on Windows you might want to try running it as administrator.

BBC starts experimenting with the Fediverse, running its own Mastodon instance by 8orange8 in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] 8orange8@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah definitely. I remember the fake "Detector Vans" designed to frighten people but I suspect going forward with more and more younger people only using Netflix/Amazon Prime etc their attitude will have to change.

Technically the BBC are not "state-funded" but funded by UK viewers paying for a voluntary licence to watch.

I would certainly agree though that the UK government's influence in appointing staff in the upper echelons of the organisation (and also general government interference in its day to day running) leaves it open to criticism.
