when amazon books could be de-drmed and "my" torrent site showed an interest/appreciation for uploaders i often uploaded ebouks i had bought.

well, both is no longer the case but if it were i still would.

i also occassionally buy music, books and even movies i very much like.

also i adhore being dependant on the whims of a company, being it amazon, netflix or spotify. i want a physical or at least selfowned copy of what i paid for and not only the licence to consume.

tut sie das nicht sowieso?

ich hab etliche apps probiert, bei voyager klappt nicht mal rudimebtär das theme ändern. vermutlich liegts am veralteten os aber wenn das nur für die ist, die alle 4 jahre ein neues smartphone kaufen, dann brauch ichs nicht.

technische schwierigkeiten, das login war problematisch, lemmyworld ständig weg, instanzen u. subs nicht auffindbar, dann der server upgrade. ständig war/ist was.

Ich brauche keine Erklärung dafür, aber ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass das zahlreiche User abschreckt.

ich weiß, will hier keiner hören oder wahrhaben, aber lemmy ist in keinster weise ein ersatz f. reddit.

es ist anders, mit potential, ja.

jerboa als app ist mäßig, die instanzencrashs sind lausig, manches ist einfach nicht erreichbar (jedenfalls via app) und vor allem der inhalt fehlt.

auf reddit haben zwar zahlreiche subs geschlossen, ob privat oder auf spaßbetrieb gestellt, aber sowohl sach als auch spaßthemen/subs gibts zahlreich, während hier (lemmy) oft tote hose ist.

reddit interessiert sich nicht für die qualität der posts, mengenmäßig wird sich so schnell kaum was ändern.

und anders als lemmy ist reddit auch f. technisch wenig versierte oder ungeduldige User mit älteren Betriebssystemen leicht bedienbar

AFAIK epub is not universally supported and def. not by any kindle.

best dl, run through calibre (convert to mobi/azw) and transfer this via usb to kindle.

ok, i usually get a big bunch of .torrent files once a month, run a short filtering and dump them all into transmission on a seedbox.

this worked fine with firefox and downthemall extension. however probably due to ff permanent and non stoppable upgrading the extension no longer works. while trying to figure it out i thought that maybe there are other/better ways. so, if you bulk download how have you organised it?

i still want to

get the files as search results (according to searcf filters),

be able to get rid of duplicates (which are renamed like filex(1).torrent so easily to be found and removed)

and have a look at them before handing them off to transmission

what would you suggest?

os is win10

when you dl from any seller site do you know what you get regarding spy/mal/bloatware? for sure?

i would not dl from usenet or a public tracker though.

i am a thief like we all are, no need for euphemism.

but i'd rather be robin hood than stoertebeker.

where do you think your files come from?

i just think if everybody once in a while would just buy and upload one file there would be a lot of new or unusual stuff.

Do you share? (feddit.de)

i wonder how much is left from the very early sharing ideals from the dawn of the internet.

do you juat take or do you offer something?

upload stuff, contribute by seeding, rip, be part of a group ..?

[-] gwi1785@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

there are no longer many movies i like that much and if so i usually jtst buy the dvd.

it got way too complicated nowadays. starting with megabig files you not always can easily covert and watch.

then there is stuff i saw on tv which isn't available for free often not even can be bought. i have never figured out how to crack these coded stuff. so it just is on a storage disc. i hate it but don't know a way around.

so, you certainly are not alone.

2 Pfeiler und nen Seil drüber

das ist dann aber eine miniseilbahn

[-] gwi1785@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

vorhandenen Straßen, Brücken oder Schienen und kann so mit geringen Kosten für neue Infrastruktur

stimmt aber nur bedingt. schließlich müssen ggf. pfeiler u. jedenfalls stationen gebaut werden. u. die wartung kann ja auch nicht im schwebezustand erfolgen

anderer nachteil: wetterx- besonders wind/sturm anfällig

thanks. got a book from AA that was not on my other sources though not very new. will keep that in my bookmarks.

i am always on the lookout for non english NEWer ebooks.

after the raids and shut downs some years ago the sources are spare especially for german ones.

i know you can find old stuff on gutenberg, libgenesis (can't remember the full name) & co and surprisingly ibooks is still there but thats it.

of course some usenet boards but few and all the same stuff. their content usually finds its way to some torrent sites but few and late.

so, any recommendations?

neweat version from google playstore android 9 though, no chance for upgrade.

still server problem. now only one warning but it crashes now on up/downvoting

does not keep settings. always resets filter to active instead of new, everywhere. always resets to local on startpage.

always starts with homepage (ok, no bug but i am used to start with the last visited community)

does not keep the current text line in focus in the body field

does not go to a new comment from notification but to head of post

i could not find a setting to change language (to english)

there is at least 1 com (again, home) where there is no comment symbol on posts. its there with other comments to posts in this com. but thats it. yes, subscribed.

minor glitch - marking is a problem because the text field is small and text does not flow

cut is an option hidden in the option menue in the german versions

if you know how to fix anything (maybe i just am too dumb) or have these problems too pls. tell.
