Proxy Raye è un frontend alternativo per XVideos. Permette di guardare i video senza tracciamento e pubblicità, tramite un'interfaccia pulita ed essenziale.
L'ho riscritto da zero in Next.js. La nuova versione contiene le seguenti migliorie:
video HD e selettore qualità video.
rotazione user-agent anti ban.
switcher tema dark/light.
Il tutto è facilmente self-hostabile. Il sorgente è sul mio repo gitea e su codeberg.
Nelle prossime release aggiungerò altre cose importanti come i filtri per la ricerca e la possibilità di cercare su altri siti oltre a XVideos.
La pornografia è sostanzialmente innocua e sopravvalutata. La divisione porno/non-porno è un costrutto borghese originario della metà dell'800. La sessualità e il desiderio non sono confinate (se non illusoriamente) a certe pratiche o parti del corpo. Da una parte le piattaforme come XVideos hanno reso la pornografia più accessibile, sdoganando e permettendo la pubblicazione di contenuti con pratiche e corpi esclusi dal porno mainstream. Dall'altra rappresentano esperienze utente orrende: banner e popup ovunque, annunci ai limiti del distopico. Il senso di questo progetto è: attaccare il contenitore, non il contenuto. Far bruciare banda e impedire la monetizzazione. Un modo anti-capitalista di usare la pornografia. Questa serie di facciate malcela il tentativo di nobilitare qualcosa di banale e poco interessante come la pornografia. L'immagine è la prigione del desiderio. Buona masturbazione.
Hey #foss /#opensource community, how do you source skillsets outside of your core dev team's wheelhouse, be that volunteer or paid?
@DProofreaders is embarking on a proofreading UI redesign and the dev team doesn't have deep #UX expertise. What we do have are two existing ~20-year-old UIs, a laundry list of requested improvements, and a very opinionated community.
Any suggestions on how you find someone to help you wrangle that?
I'm unable to pull this up and boost here. Was able to get the whole stream on a Glitch-soc box np, and I can follow the curator here too, but I'm too tired to try testing on Hubzilla or Friendica at the moment; so I'll just post the link then, which may be of interest to some, ... Actually, I suspect, many.
We've had some discussions about this over in the Fediverse-City Matrix room, Where Ryan is also a participant. It's apropos of the recent onboarding with respect to Flipboard curators and also the nacent interoperability we're experiencing with Bluesky's ATP.
So I found myself in a weird predicament. I had some older laptops that I converted to #Debian & #XFce with a bunch of added apps and games. I gave some to my family, and the rest I wanted to give them to kids for school. I asked around. Well, no one seems to want them. No one is using computers anymore in #Greece it seems, they only use #smartphones. They barely browse the web too (just some gov sites). They just use #tiktok and few apps, consoles for games. That's it.
Now that Apple is forced to open their mobile operating systems for third party devs in an unprecedented manner, can we work on an indie foss podcatcher that does not suck?

The person in this position will work directly with helping us maintain existing systems, and design new systems for gathering and analyzing Tor network data.
The bulk of our code is currently written in #java, smaller portions are written in R, #Python, PostgreSQL, and JavaScript. We are transitioning to a new pipeline mainly in #Rust and Python.
The Gnome Project is a wall-garden, but not of the Apple kind. It's a club of mostly #Redhat programmers & a few select others, and either you're in it, or you're not. Your user needs, your bug reports, your patches, all end up on /dev/null. They listen to no one. Never have, never will.
Did you know that #LibreOffice has a tabbed user interface option? Make sure you're using the latest release, LibreOffice 24.2, to get the most from it! (And you can find it in the menu under View > User Interface...) #foss#opensource#freesoftware
Contrary to what I read on social media and in the mainstream press, when I think of the average software developer, I don't think of someone "moving fast and breaking things" in a cutting-edge tech start-up. I think of someone working in an established business on legacy systems that end users have come to rely on. Because that's what the vast majority of us actually do. Most software developers are in the distinctly not-cutting-edge business of keeping the proverbial lights on.
