@CoMaps Why are preferences placed inside the help menu?

@aerion you could do the build yourself, the instructions for that are here: https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/src/branch/main/docs/INSTALL_DESKTOP.md

@CoMaps
Thanks, I'll give it a try when I get a moment. -

@livefish there's already a list of potential improvements here: https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/issues/3387
It just needs enough people with time and the skills.

Is there a way to install this without using Flatpak? I avoid Flatpak like the plague.@aerion
Quick question: Why do you avoid Flatpaks? -

@aerion
Quick question: Why do you avoid Flatpaks?@Papaexmatrikulatus @aerion I personally avoid flatpaks (snaps not as much) because of limited system access and therefore usability. The two main things I noticed:
- Missing subpixel anti-aliasing led to worse readability of text in e.g. LibreWolf
- Filesystem access: LibreWolf file downloads failed, KiCad could only open the files when directly opened from the file manager, FreeCAD could not save any files at all (fixed in newer versions though)
Can I fix some of those issues with permission management? Maybe, but I tried for a few minutes and then realised one should just install the native version from whatever package manager one uses -

Perfect, as I happen to run Arch! -

@CoMaps wait, CoMaps had a desktop version? Or is this the first time it's been released?

@mintydev so far we hadn't packed it anywhere, it's only been on flatpak for ~ a week

@CoMaps ah cool! Is it based on the organic maps beta, or is it a desktop version purely from the Comaps team?

@mintydev It's a fork of the OM beta one - there's suggested work on it though that you can find on our Codeberg repo!

@CoMaps hey guys a .deb for ubuntu/debian would be nice. If I have some time I'll look into creating it

@mahadevank that would be great, the rate limiting step for us is indeed the volunteer time for supporting more options. Feel free to join us on Codeberg or Zulip if you're planning to move ahead with it!

@CoMaps ha! I have procrastinated trying to build the experimental desktop version long enough to get the easy solution served on a silver platter

@CoMaps Thanks, something I have been looking for + very convenient using flatpak.
