cutitdown,

This is super helpful, thanks so much

cutitdown,

Any tips on jumping in? Recommended services, etc

cutitdown,

Pretty much exactly the same here. There's no denying the existing collection of knowledge on Reddit, but it is no longer a browse randomly app for me.

cutitdown,

I'll admit I do. And I won't like, I'll still append "Reddit" to my searches as needed. I'm just not really actively contributing or anything there anymore, which is sad

Hey y'all, we're headin' down 'er to m'k'bin on the bayou this weeken' if ya wanna tagalong

cutitdown,

Interesting. For some reason kbin sounds better than lemmy to me, but don't super love either.

Should we be using hashtags and mentions more?

Edited below. I imagine many of us are here from reddit, where hashtags weren't really a thing and in many places mentions were actively discouraged (/r/politics I'm looking at you). However, since everything we post or comment on kbin (and lemmy) has the potential of getting federated on a mastodon server, which leans heavily...

cutitdown,

Indeed, hence I think kbin is the best sorta in-between. It's designed to deal with both threads and microblogs.

Sponsorblock for Podcasts

As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this...

cutitdown,

Absoltuely. Definitely depends on what you're listening to. Gotta be able to adjust per podcast.

cutitdown,

That's a decent solution, but unfortunately doesn't have handy podcast app features like silence trimming, voice boosting, etc. Great suggestion though!

cutitdown,

Pretty cool, especially considering how it's been shown that WiFi can be used to pretty accurately determine the position and number of people in a room with AI.

A great mobile app for free music

I recently got into the piracy community, and discovered a great open source app for Android that allows you to stream music for free from YouTube music! It’s called ViMusic and it’s one of the best free music apps imo. It has a beautiful and customizable interface and it actually has a music recommendation algorithm which...

cutitdown,

That works. F-Droid is an alternative to the Play store. You can also download the .apk directly instead if you prefer. Just scroll down to the versions and find the most recent.

cutitdown,

Any tips on where you source the torrents from? Also looking into Usenet as well

So this new browser by https://thebrowser.company .

Some good ideas, like pinned tabs. (Will soon be copied I would think.)

Some concerning: lots of data apparently gets sent to Google, unless you turn if off/

Some features I would miss from Firefox, particularly containers. I have walled off some companies (like Meta) and use them to easily access multiple accounts at others (like Mastodon.social)

But the biggest question is: what's their business model? They have venture investment.

cutitdown,

@J12t Not quite the same, but you can create separate profiles that keep that stuff separate. You'd just have to make a space with a profile for each website you want fully separate.

Okay, is slick.

cutitdown,

@ben Agreed, so good!

You're welcome to join/contribute to @ArcBrowser if you like -- still a work-in-progress :)

cutitdown,

@frederic Could use a burner email?

@MoritzGiessmann

cutitdown,

I'm definitely reporting a fair amount of bugs as well. Hope they get to them!

cutitdown, (edited )

I haven't tested much myself, but the settings seem accessible to me. See attached image.

Getting some laggy tab switching and performance issues after today's update. Anybody else noticing anything?
