It is about Honey hijacking the referrals, which wasn’t known until a youtuber made a video about it (or at least not widely known)

it should be fixed

It’s not a mistake, but an incredibly unethical business model. Why minimize the issue?

not exposing it immediately feels super shitty to me

it doesn’t change anything to the facts though

It’s serialization, as old as printed news. You can dislike that but it’s not like he’s the only one doing it

I still use yt-dlp to download because I don’t understand Freetube’s options. It’s either only audio or video

Also if you’re on Linux and you get a white screen during playback (has been an issue since 0.22) this fix works for me: freetube --enable-features=''

edit: posting a vertical pic messes up the webpage a bit. If it’s annoying tell me

How does that work? The lab puts you in contact with people they know share your DNA?

A non techy but privacy mindful friend bought a fairphone with /e/
She’s happy with it

I might do the same one day when I don’t want to tinker anymore

• frontpage by default is too old (sometimes 2+ days)
• better search
• maybe it’s just me but my tiny brain refuses to learn clicking on a title brings me to the comments and not the article. an option would be nice
• filters based on tags
• can mods post comments next to a title? this can be very helpful (e.g. “misleading?”)

It’s surprising they made this ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52JeWila65Y

his payrise is equivalent to something like 3000 US workers minimum wage annual salaries

if my math is correct (which it probably isn’t)

It breaks Cloudflare so for me tons of websites become inaccessible. Maybe you can tweak it but OOTB it’s unusable

google captcha that will 100% fail the first time no matter how careful I am, sorry I can’t do it anymore, especially if I don’t know what I’m opening

and hasn’t it be established bots can solve those now and it’s just about the money?

Fuck*

qwerty only it seems

I loved xprivacy_lua

You could hide almost everything.
No app knew the other apps I used.
No app had clipboard access. when I needed to paste something I used Xposed Edge.
You could spoof a lot of info, GPS coordinates, IMEI … The list goes on.

support stopped. I should check if there’s a fork.

edit: AOSP permissions have improved and I now use almost exclusively FOSS apps, so I’m not worried, but I still miss the app.

It is indeed very rough for now, but good to see another app

Even if it gets better it would need a good multi language (multi-lingual?) support for me to switch, which the official app did a stellar job with.

You may distribute the software or any part of its source code only if you do so free of charge for non-commercial purposes.

isn’t that open source?

to name a few I like:

• Read You, brilliant RSS reader. Now syncs with Freshrss. Inspired by Reeder on iOS
• Voice, audiobook player. I use it in fact to listen to audio from youtube videos (downloaded with Newpipe). For audiobooks (and podcasts) I use
• Audiobookshelf (needs server)
• FUTO keyboard with decent on device voice recognition! (exists as a standalone)
• 8Vim, weird keyboard I really like
• Fairemail has been my trusty email client for years. Don’t be spooked by its many options, once accounts configured the UI doesnt show unecessary stuff IMO. Some unique and useful features.
  But if you want something simpler there’s K9, now Thunderbird. Although I still experience the issue with emails not arriving on time with this newer version
• KeepassDX, great password manager, good UI, keeps improving.

I just received a Kagi invite from a friend.

It’s absolutely great

Let’s hope they don’t look too closely at how family plans are shared for now.
10€ + taxes a month is just too steep for me

Why are Piped or Invidious used here or in FreeTube? Aren’t they serving the same functions?
