yes, mam has some books in german but mainly older stuff and 99% from ibooks. i used to offer but got tired of their inconsistent rules/category system and being forced to provide bookcovers. there was/is also not much interest and even less appreciation for uploaders in general.

ipt has sometimes french, spanish stuff (dunno if still there ) but i have never seen german.

i never go online with kindle (don't need wiki ) but once i had to. it immediately downloaded anything from the amazon list (of bought/dl media) including reading samples. da** annoying.

i deleted everything on amazon.

then amazon stopped sending actual files when i bought a book. even when specifically transfer to pc or via usb was selected (can't remember the phrase). support was useless. i stopped buying books then.

never found out what the problem was/is.

but i certainly don't put the kindle online and let amazon upgrade the firmware in the background.

Ich verstehe nicht warum alle so zwanghaft bei einer ihren Nutzern gegenüber derart feindlich eingestellten Plattform wie Twitter bleiben wollen

war auch mein gedanke, aber dort sitzen halt die empfänger der werbebotscha äh, infos. reichweitenfrage.

well, my experience and use of usenet is kind of limited but the really goud stuff with (mainly) working links can be found on restricted boards. you at least have to register and access is not always open.

then you need an app like sabnzb and a good usenet provider (depending on what you seek).

mirc is or at least was a free irc client but if you get access to a well managed board that has your stuff you will just need sab. and a vpn of course.

if you just surf and search on your own there is a ton of crap, incomplete stuff, wrongly labeled files etc.

Anyone else having trouble subscribing to communities?

yes and no.

it got better .

however i still do not have a com on lemmy.world in the subscribed list. search finds it but does not give the instance and the app shows it as it was weeks ago.

no problems in browser

edit:

oh, funny .. neither comment nor menue icon on my post

and paste (eg. text right after ">") does not work where the cursor. it will be inserted left always.

sorry, can't post a commebt since that icon simply isn't there .

this guide won't work because on irchighway/ebooks you need a registered nick and OP skipped that.

i dare say almost everything there can be found on libgen as well.

irc is nice if you want a complete series or many books and know how to do it.

no, it does not.

excuse me but jerboa crashing after each "send" is hardly "fine", not even "largely working".

why has the release not been synchronized? as i understand it this required server upgrade is not even available now?

first everybody said get the upgrade, it will fix this or that problem. now you are told to downgrade again ..

also, quoting/ pasting is messed up, filtering still does not stay as set and so on.

yes, work in progress but this way you will not be able to offer an alternative for those who will soon leave reddit because their app no longer works.
