[Solved!] Looking for a way to speed up audio on a website that REALLY doesn't want users to speed up audio...

Marking as solved! The solution is a tad cumbersome (can’t directly control in-browser), but it comes with a bonus I didn’t even think to ask for (mp3 files that I can save to my phone and listen to in the car!)....

I didn’t see a firefox extension among those listed in that link, but for others and found a downloader that kind of works.

The audio are .m3u8 files (never heard of before) but if I link to them directly and open with firefox, it downloads it as a .mp3, and THAT I can actually work with!

An in-browser solution would be ideal, but having the mp3’s is great for other applications - I have a pretty lengthy commute to both school and work, so with the mp3 files on hand, I can just play them and listen on the road. The slower playback speed would actually be fine for that, since I’ll be mostly focused on the road anyway.

Actual sit-down-and-study time, I like to set stuff on 2x or higher, but that requires my full attention otherwise it’s just in one ear and out the other.

That’s the one I use for videos ^_^

Doesn’t touch the audio unfortunately.

Dude, I’m a surgical tech - my job is to stand in an OR and be a surgeon’s bitch while we’re flaying some fucker open. …and I still spend what feels like 90% of my day on Outlook -_-

ERMAHGERD! I fucking love torturing my coworkers with medical dadjokes. I am bookmarking this in my brain, and will steal it when the opportunity presents.

The groans and facepalms will be glorious!

Does this come with a quick key for hiding a thread?

The only thing I miss from that other site / RES is being able to scroll by just hitting H, H, H etc for ‘hide’, stopping to actually enter a thread, or skip it to read later.

The benefit being that I’d hop on a couple hours later, and those posts would still be hidden.

With Lemmy, I see a LOT of the same threads. Some of its because of reposts to different communities, but a lot of it’s because the stuff I already sifted through is still lingering the next time I hop on.

Hell yeah! I’ll definitely be giving this a shot!
