As a professional juggler practised early on to do things with either hand - whether it’s washing dishes or putting a key in the door… just paying attention to how you do things. Now can take juggle 3 balls in either hand
As a former Android developer, you can’t just do anything in an android app on a modern smartphone. The system is fighting you for resources the whole time. It makes sense to have something like this running as root on a device that you control.
Not that I’m sold on it, just saying…
Might be a coincidence but MX Linux still supports 32bit x86 CPU’s.
I recently installed MX Linux on an old Dell Inspiron 1300 which inexplicably still runs and it’s pretty snappy, considering.
Then I think the actual answer is there are none. Although PipePipe can access PeerTube? Also BiliBili and NicoNico. BiliBili is possibly larger than YouTube but of course it’s all in Chinese!
I mostly use PipePipe on android, from f-droid store. It’s basically New pipe but more reliable and can also view Chinese and Japanese video platforms
On desktop Freetube can’t be beat
Digital. I’ve been reading ebooks for years, starting on my flip phone back in the day. The best part to me is being able to seamlessly switch from reading with my eyes to being read to (tts - I’m used to it now and it’s waaaay better than it was).
I do a lot of driving for work so I can get a ton of reading done on the road 😁
I am upvoting this - also moved to Cloudflare from ngrok it’s much simpler to use
The apipocalypse same as everyone else. I do miss my niche communities, and my 4000+ internet points, but as an open source enthusiast (I use arch btw) I’m very much at home here 😁
I heard about the avast thing, but how are isp’s modifying web pages, that shouldn’t be possible with with https, right?
That’s the plan.
Thanks, I’m going to look at a rom soon, it’s my main device though and I don’t have a good track record when it comes to not bricking phones 🤣
Also there is the bit about unlocking the bootloader, I heard it’s not straightforward.
Yeah I’m going with they’re innocent. Just the UI with the install button and no explanation is not cool.
Yeah looking at you Roblox 😠. Has anyone hacked that anti cheat nonsense yet? Right now I’m mirroring my android phone on my desktop to be able to see what I’m doing (I’m over 40 but I play with my kids in case you wondering)
AI models get more dishonest if you ask them to respond as if they were a pirate: https://www.circusscientist.com/2023/11/13/i-hired-a-pirate-to-take-orders-for-my-entertainment-business/
Putting in my vote for Librera reader here. Also on f-droid
Have you tried Minetest? It’s pretty good, and not Java based so a lot more lightweight.
The votes are in, it is bad UI! Thanks to those who commented and made suggestions.
I have no idea why, but somehow my site became the target of bots signing up, with legit looking emails but username was random letters. I already check for emails, so a friend suggested putting a hidden trip field for the bots (this is apparently common?) and I thought it might be fun if I made it visible.
The field totally worked though, the bots gave up. Still annoyed though, who was it? I didn’t post the links to the site in many places yet it’s work in progress, I have like 10 (human) users. I guess I need to add some IP blocking and all sorts of other stuff too in future (eg captcha).
And yes the DDG thing was put there by my browser. It’s a handy feature, gave me multiple free trials on ChatGPT for eg, before they stopped the new sign-ups!
I’ve been told it is bad, I really like it (it’s my own site)
Yeah the Roblox thing is hard to swallow, it used to work better on Linux than on any other platform for me. Everything else there’s alternatives - my local PC shop sells machines at a significant discount “without windows installed”, maybe if more did that the market would take care of things and the software vendors would have to support Linux.
