Yes, still get my share of spam, especially on politics, but other than that it works ok.

Unpopular opinion but I switched from RSS to Google News and Reddit / Lemmy for basically 2 things:

I like the Google algorithm for news (guess that’s why it’s called that) it shows relevant news, especially local. When I subscribed to local news papers’ RSS, for example, they pump a lot of articles and the relevant news were difficult to spot. It still lags behind on tech news for instance.

I switched to Reddit because of the community content: conversations. On RSS you get all the news and all that but it lacks the social aspect, people discussing an article, learning from others. This is why I’m still here.

I agree and let me add one more reason.

I don’t claim to represent all dumb people on the internet but being dumb myself, sometimes I need a clear indication that something is sarcastic, otherwise I just don’t get it.

Xiaomi phones still come with infrared, mostly used to control TVs, fans, AC units, etc.

Since we are doing a big mix of everything why not throw there Minix that resides on all Intel chips?

Why? It’s easy to use, there’s no ads, has many features, etc.

Is it only because it’s owned by a big corp?

I’m still having this issue when sorting comments by Top :(

At system level you can use AdGuard DNS. Search in the settings app for DNS and set custom DNS to dns.adguard-dns.com

On Safari you can download the AdGuard app and configure it as a content blocker.

That’s weird. Might be something in the settings then but don’t know.

Indeed

You can sideload uYou or uYou+ on the iPad

You can use a downloader like Seal and when you want to download a video just share it to Seal.

I believe the microG builds by inotia00 don’t support Chromecast but the latest microG by team vanced does. You can still get it from GitHub. https://github.com/TeamVanced/VancedMicroG/releases

You can use Lasim to download your profile settings and subscribed communities from Lemmy.world and then upload to your new account. You need a computer tho, it isn’t a mobile app.

I second Infinite.

I’ll check that one out.

Is Floris Board still maintained? Latest stable release was in June 2022 and latest beta in September 2022.

Their GitHub says that stable versions are released “1 release per 1-5 months” and beta “up to 1-2 releases per week”.

I was hoping this to be a server-side feature
