I don't like it being HTTP based and TLS (certificate?), nor I am a fan of flutter and the other 70-ish dependencies (https://github.com/localsend/localsend/blob/main/app/pubspec.yaml).
KDEConnect is great and does way more than file sharing, I'll stick with that.
On top of the fact that those previews are annoying as hell as other comments pointed out, I want to add that this kind of feature also uses a fair amount of processing + memory.
I think that is a nice opt-in feature for those who wants it but I like my default light and simple.
It really has the vibe of an hbomberguy video. I also feel the background is a subtle tribute to his style.
They just don't want to watch it. Length is not really an argument.
Yes for the pointing to a wall.
You can go with your firewall I don't mind. I don't get why you think this had anything to do with security. This is just to get any software to go offline by default.
Yes indeed. For now you can just use wine registry option (from the up arrow next to the wine glass) to open the windows registry.
The you go in CURRENT_USER (don't remember the full name, on my phone right now) and something like software/windows/current_version/internet_settings . There you should have a "ProxyEnable" you can switch the value from 0 to 1 (just double click). Then right click to add a "string value" and name it "ProxyServer". Once created double click on it to change its value to something wrong like "http://bla.local:80".
You can check internet by running exe from the wine environment (up arrow next to play) and start internet explorer from c_drive/Program Data
Damned, this is so frustrating when you cannot switch yet. Not like Wayland is perfect anyway but I felt the same with pipewire where the new system as some needed improvement but the switch is harsh.
