Is there any open-source project that serves the same purpose of Duolingo that can be self-hosted?

Or perhaps a self-hosteable webapp i could add the words myself from curated sources on the internet to then do quizzes on it?

Is Lemmy your "main social media app"? If not, which one is it?
  • Friendica is also nice and looks like 2008ish Twitter but not so full, sadly. For reference if anyone interested:

  • Is this community inactive?
  • I guess we could start from these but there are so many more.. internet is incredibly dense of information and record of old conferences (which for historical purposes can be very interesting imo) https://fosstodon.org/@fosdem https://youtube.com/@bsdconferences/videos (currently 237 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@linuxconfau2011/videos (currently 165 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@BsdcanOrg/videos (currently 261 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@linuxconfau2017/videos (currently 169 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqJap3FMiIH-Nq7NcRJJYIg9opog9fsES (currently 35 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8SornpEq9tQwS39VCvdi62H (currently 13 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8TijlK7TuBeRMgylGaN9Ec9 (currently 12 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8SsgOtgZqfixbynhtkAU_b1 (currently 7 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8TAMC2HJLZ7H54edD2BeGWv (currently 10 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8TNG6f94xo9_W-XXrEbqgWI (currently 4 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb87fdKUIo8Q41aoPE6vssP-uF4dxk86b (currently 9 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@FreeBSDProject/videos (currently 188 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUW3LUwQvegyqk2Iqi-YD7Do-AyD4W0s1 (currently 349 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@EuroBSDcon/videos (currently 238 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@EuroBSDCon-mx3xo/videos (currently 46 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbET-7keUM8qdq16cDrx-dw2SVXBLH4hk (currently 109 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@UKNOFconf/videos (currently 512 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@openevents/videos (currently 391 videos as of the time I post this) https://youtube.com/@mediacccde/videos (currently 4.9K videos as of the time I post this - not all Libre related, but mostly)

  • Recommend me a LaTeX/TeX live equivalent app for Android
  • Thanks, I didn't catch on that. I appreciate you informing it!

  • Apparently there's a guide on Termux's official wiki on how to download and use TeX Live from Termux, which is great for anyone already using Termux but I'd prefer not to since that would be the only reason for me to use it and give too many permissions for the app. Thanks for the suggestion though!

  • Don't you need to give Termux too many permissions (for obvious reasons and well justified sincd it's a terminal emulator)? That's the only thing keeping me away from Termux, I'm not very familiar with it and I don't feel comfortable going ahead onto an app like that since I'd use it exclusively for this purpose. Thanks for the suggestion though (I didn't know you could run vim/nano from there, interesting, by the way). For anyone reading this and don't think this way I do and want to give it a try, here are some Termux official webpages:

  • Wow, I've never heard of it but it looks interestig thanks! For anyone reading this, here's some links:

    Apparently I also found someone made a mobile app editor for Typst, but it's in another app store called Accrescent (I don't know if it's safe? I will do some searches on it to get to know about) The project BeauTyXT official website, GitHub Repository (.apk available on Releases page)

  • Thanks, from LaTeX website, they inform of OverLeaf (not FOSS) more like freemium web app? It works nicely though, Papeeria - also same as OverLeaf in terms of FOSS, and CoCalc which I'm very unfamiliar with and it's different from the first two but also not FOSS webapp. I wish there were apps because I don't even know if there are self-hosteable TeX live equivalent so I could use it without relying on an online service

  • TeX is a typesetting language. Instead of visually formatting your text, you enter your manuscript text intertwined with TeX commands in a plain text file. You then run TeX to produce formatted output, such as a PDF file. Thus, in contrast to standard word processors, your document is a separate file that does not pretend to be a representation of the final typeset output, and so can be easily edited and manipulated.

    Are there any? I could find proprietary apps doing it from Google's PlayStore but I really rather use a FOSS alternative if there are any. I tried searching on F-Droid and I couldn't find any.

    Is there a community where I can ask for FOSS Android apps?
  • Aww, that's a pity that the fossdroid one is no longer available, I couldn't find any in regards to general FOSS apps regardless of which app store you have, but I'll give the fdroid a try, thanks!

  • Key Info
  • Now the ContentDB link is: https://content.luanti.org/packages/wuzzy/mineclone2/

    It still works with yours since it's redirecting content.minetest to content.luanti, for now (hopefully stays this way?)

    Any equivalent of r/fossdroid or better?

    Is this community inactive?

    I find it a great idea on where this community inspires to be, but there are no posts so far.. So many BSD and Linux conference lectures on YouTube that could be hosted on PeerTube and other libre alternatives and shared here.. there's potential if this community ever gets active.
