The lack of official soundtracks in Spotify are the mean reason I use YT music for that.

I remember my colleague days when I stopped using USBs in favor of Dropbox, I felt I was living in the future.

Add this in your exemptions and test it.

Fair, but I still want something on the left.

Are you using a Pi Hole or any tool that blocks ads though the DNS?

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago

Pretty much the only thing you can do nowadays with root is install tweaks that hide the fact that you have root from other apps lol.

While it is true that you can install those modules to hide it, I wouldn't say they are the only reason to stick rooting lol, a lot of apps work way better with root permissions, Battery Guru, FKM and AdAway are 3 good examples that I can think of right away.

With root?

  1. Having a superior backup and restore method, Swiftbackup rooted is way better than Google's solution.

  2. Hassle free ad-less YouTube (and YT music) the root apps (Magisk or KSU) come with a way to auto update, so, from the user side I just hit update and I am good to go, no need to waste time patching the apks myself.

  3. I can replace the Google news from the side/left menu with whatever app I like, in my case, the Feeder app.

I can go on, but you just asked for 3.

I moved to Android for the 1st time ever in 2020 from an iPhone 6s.

The device I decided to go with is a Poco F2 Pro which lost official support years ago, it has decent hardware and even the battery still holds up (with a good custom ROM, I still achieve 8 hrs of SOT).

It just took me about a year, or perhaps less to move to the custom ROM scene, and for me I can't ever go back to stock Android ever, even when it is a big step regarding iOS features (except for LS customization) the amount of stuff you can do with rooted android device is no joke.

My only regret is that I was never in the prime days of rooting... At least Telegram communities are super active, not that it is better... But personally I prefer it to discord lol.

I was in the prime days of jailbreaking though, too bad that they seem to be doing worse nowadays.

Short answer: yes.

Medium answer: yes because I want to not use Sync for Reddit to get into anime, Plex/Kodi/Stremio/Real Debrid/Arr stack, and handhelds communities.

I could care less about trending shit and reels reposting... But that is the downside of exponential growth I guess.

Only the Bitwarden back-end uses proprietary code

So this was what it changed then?

I also self-host Vaultwarden because it is stupidly simple...

In my environment alone they will be loosing upwards of 3,500 dollars yearly, 700,000 if I can convince my boss to dump them for the company as well.

And move to what?

 

I have been a user of Real Debrid for some time now and looking how easy it is to watch whatever the heck you want with light apps such as Stremio a sudden doubt came to me, how does these Debrid services even get to be that stable and copyright free?

I mean are they playing that "we offer a cloud service" flag? Because even old school services such as MediaFire and Mega who I guess say they are personal cloud services get some files flagged too...

Or is it only that their user base ain't as big as the aforementioned services? I don't even know if this is true yet, I am a RD user more nowadays.

 

I'm asking because I have been looking for some videos about the game Metroid Prime Hunters, these are some online gameplay videos almost since the beginning of YouTube...

I only remember them in my mind, I don't even recall specific channel names.

Is there any like archive of YT videos? Or is this lost media now?

 

I swear I saw something like this here on Lemmy but I can't find it.

I know android manages the RAM very differently than any desktop OS as it frees up RAM in order to have it available for other processes being third party or core ones.

I remember I saw something that you could fiddle with within the Firefox config page.

Or is it not possible on Android?

I'm using Firefox Nightly, because I think it is the only version that has a working pull to refresh.

 

I know it kinda defeats the purpose of using those clients, but for now I need all account stuff synced, bookmarks, open tabs and passwords.

I'm mainly trying them (mostly Cromite, because it is the most updated one) because they still have this feature within the chrome flags:

#darken-websites-checkbox-in-theme

Google got rid of this in recent updates and I use that feature a lot even when I recently discovered it lol.

I know Firefox has better support for this as it has extensions that would do this job better, I'm currently using Iceraven but I don't think it is a perfect solution as of now (I have faced some lag playing videos for example).

 

Relay for Reddit app stays as one of the few remaining third party apps for Reddit and they are forced to go to a subscription model but the cost of such a subscription is related to how many API calls per user are done.

This screenshot was taken from the yet working patched Sync for Reddit app.

I only get a unknown error message and a retry button which keeps loading forever, it seems to be working fine on my Lemmy.world account.

Lemm.ee is not down BTW.

 

I tried force closing the app, changing battery settings to restricted and cleaning the cache, I'm using Beta 29.

 

If this was an old Android game it would only be a matter of downloading the APK I guess?

I only have an iPad from the 7th generation in its latest OS version, MacBook Pro with Big Sur and an Android phone.

I resort in piracy for this kind of needs (or emulation), since this is an old game and Jailbreak is pretty much dead am I out of luck this time?

Following the spirit of spreading across the Fediverse (and because my main instance is down so many times, because diverse reasons) I'm intrigued about the joining instance process, because I honestly don't know what criteria to have in order to join another one if I ever want to do it.

That made me curious of how you decided to join?

I firstly join to lemmy.fmhy.ml thanks to Spez and a Reddit post from FMHY subreddit, then the tragedy occurred, then I joined to lemmy.world which is/was my main one because I pictured it like a good home, then lemmy.fmhy.net revived and I am with them too, but seems like they are in a bit of trouble with the server, finally now I am in lemm.ee, but only because I just wanted another backup, not because I searched for it especially (also it was mentioned in a comment about smaller instances and one user from here throw a joke to not join here because it sucks so that way the server would be more stable, so yeah, I joined).

To be clear I am not in search for yet another instance (that sounds like a good instance name to be fair), I just want to know how the deciding process is for you, is it just random? Is it because of personal tastes?

I couldn't care less about NSFW stuff, I don't search for it specifically, but my day won't be ruined if I see a tit.

I like gaming, tech, Linux, SBC gaming, emulation, macOS, Android stuff etc (yeah how original) should I look for an instance dedicated to that if I ever want to join yet another one? Because I see topics like this in almost any instance.

I read you lemmings!

EDIT: BTW the migration process has been easier for me thanks to LASIM, so I wouldn't be scared if I ever want/have to migrate again.
