  • For some, but it’s complicated :D Found this really good wiki article tho: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_the_Romani_people

    Gypsy originally (at least in the 16th century) meant Egyptian, “from the supposed origin of the people” (which was a wrong supposition ofc) https://www.etymonline.com/word/Gypsy

    …but in Middle French they were Bohémien (see bohemian), and in Spanish also Flamenco “from Flanders.” “The gipsies seem doomed to be associated with countries with which they have nothing to do”

    Most words arriving from an outside group (exonyms) were often “wrong” as in they were born out a limited POV or a misconception, I still can’t find it in me to label them as objectively offensive especially when they are still pervasive in the modern language for referring to a people. I like this quote from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_Germany

    Often language lags behind the changing society and names tend to retain references to first encounters: the Finnish first and foremost met the Saxons while the French faced the Alamanni






  • Update: both Fossify Gallery and Fossify File Manager can do this! Just found out :) you select the first image(long press) then long press the last image of the group, it selects them all


    Mm basically Ctrl + Shift + select but on a phone.

    Not a real solution but a couple of workarounds with Material Files:

    • if part of the filename matches (like photos taken during 2026-02) you can search then “Select all”;

    • turning on its FTP server than managing from a pc

    Real solution would be a file manager with advanced search, that can filter by date range for example.
