  • I use OSMand more for car navigation or hiking navigation, CoMaps for me is more for finding out about a store, or a coffeeplace in the city somewhere… the search is somehow just miles ahead of OSMand (which almost never satisfies me) and the UI decisions just seem better for that. It also looks fantastic, although OSMand is highly customizable and for car navigation i’m really happy with the map settings i have.



  • I have no more excuses, the line has already been crossed. I was getting ready to move over to Linux last year, but this is the real year. I had to move houses and it cost a bit more energy then expected. I now expect to give my final good-byes to proprietary PC operating systems this feb/march.

    I use a streamdeck combined with soundpad software as a soundboard on W10/11, and that functionality is not 1-1 on Linux. Whatevs. I’ll have to do without some options I had on windows. I’ll get there.







  • This seems pretty great, and probably more than enough. I’d still like to bring extra options to the table, so:

    You could also thank them for asking, to get some weirdness out of the way (you establish that you are happy that they are trying to figure out why there is any ‘weirdness’) You could also put some more emphasis on the fact that it’s internal and not triggered by something they could control in any way.

    It can be nice to be in someones presence that’s so beautiful/attractive to you that it kind of makes you weird/glow/giddy/nervous :) . Not something we experience every day!




  • I like the ease of use! As a vocalist I felt in control with minimal effort and movement restriction was not bad. Live performance might be a bit too restricted in movement, lugging around an extra cable. I needed the XLR to Jack converters in our setup and it was a bit crowded on the main mixer, but nothing game breaking. Should bring different converters next time. I love singing with very good monitoring and this made me able to do that with little effort and a small kit footprint. I think this is the way for me.

    We added Man in the Mirror to our repertoire, more piano songs, yay!


  • Damn, that’s a nice treat. I’m no purist but, wow, typing on a good switch/keyboard combo is a real comfy joy. I love blue switches, or the buckling spring ones from the old IBM planks. I tried a friends 25-different-switches try-out board and found out that there might be switch types I like even more! Maybe I’ll look around again if this Ducky One (3) keyboard ever dies, but I wasn’t counting on that happening :)
