elementaryOS
The App Center version of Cozy is currently out of date. elementaryOS ships with old versions of dependencies needed by Cozy. Those are not compatible anymore. Therefore I’m unable to update the App Center version to the latest version of Cozy. Please switch over to the Flatpak version for now. If you experience issues with moving your library, let me know!
elementaryOS is working on a new version of App Center which will be based on Flatpak. When the new App Center is live, Cozy will be back on the app center! :) Thanks for everyone who supported me on the App Center.
macOS
Currently discontinued
There is an older beta of Cozy 0.6.7 which is tested on macOS 10.14. It might not work with newer versions of macOS. Because the build process is rather complicated and not easy to automate I’ve currently discontinued building for macOS. If you’re interested in the build process: have a look at my writeup.
Some information about the old beta:
- no integration in notification center or any other desktop integration really
- media keys are not working
- dark mode requires 2x switching in settings + is not loading automatically at startup
- large Cozy.app
You can download it here: Cozy 0.6.7 beta3 for macOS
FAQ
I have imported wrong files and cannot get rid of them:
Delete the following folders to reset cozy (this will loose all saved progress):
~/.local/share/cozy
~/.cache/cozy
I can’t uninstall the Flatpak:
Try
flatpak uninstall com.github.geigi.cozy/x86_64/stable
or
flatpak uninstall --user com.github.geigi.cozy/x86_64/stable
Thanks to @Meresmata
I store my audiobooks in a location that is not accessible in the Flatpak sandbox:
You can override the flatpak settings and allow access to a path (e.g. /media) like this:
flatpak --user override --filesystem=/media com.github.geigi.cozy
Thank you! 💐
