@geerlingguy Its too bad that non-techies can't do a search for "How to install and use GUI-based-thing on Linux" and get something that matches their desktop environment. This is like 98% of the time; if it were 50% it would still be unacceptable.

Android handles GUI customization much better. There is one reference implementation, and the variants are more like skins with the same basic, recognizable structure underneath.

@leX 🤘🏻

Had to deal with increasing numbers of spam calls in the last months. So I set up some kind of firewall on my phone.

Found the excellent app SpamBlocker on F-Droid f-droid.org/en/packages/spam.b
It has a bit of a learning curve though. With *lots* of options making the UI and UX a bit "special". But there's lots of context help - and it eventually just works.

Next step: actually identify newly incoming spam calls. For this there's a community curated spam list on phoneblock.net/
This project has an API that can be plugged into the SpamBlocker app; for identifying and reporting numbers.

Awesome FOSS projects!
