1·1 month agoI might come across as an obsolete dinosaur (which I probably am) - but I really enjoyed the tracks from Hitman game series, especially Exploration from Hitman 2 : Silent Assasin, and then became a fan of anything composed by Jesper Kyd.

I just read about this extension today. Seems interesting. The description says It’s supposedly doing more than just switching the UA.
21·4 months agoThe good thing is that Firefox has got some decent forks like Librewolf, which are worth exploring if one is okay with slightly delayed updates.
It was surprising to see this from Firefox, and even more unsettling was the fact that this was turned on by itself in my desktop firefox settings since the last update. So it was opt-out by default, while I expected this to be opt-in, just like their telemetry.
Not good. Nope.
Yep, someone thought of porting the awesome Freetube app to Android. It’s not as polished as NewPipe, but gets the job done. Especially at this time, it’s the only one that is working, having both a local API as well as option to use Invidious API.
I pulled the apk straight from their github page via Obtainium. You may want to give it a try.
Most Piped instances are also not working because they use NewPipe Extractor under the hood.
I have also temporarily switched to FreeTube for Android, because a few of the Invidious instances are still working fine.
The nice thing about the FOSS world is that it’s pretty easy to import subscriptions and other stuff from NewPipe to FreeTube.
I hope this YouTube fuckery is handled soon. I love NewPipe way more every time it successfully deals with the YT weirdos.

It says that Piped is affected as well. This is probably a dumb question from me, but I use NewPipe in my phone to access YT - and it did not cause any trouble yet. I heard that the Piped project also uses NewPipe Extractor under the hood (which basically scrapes YT website). So why would Piped break but not NewPipe ?

Agree? (Lol)
Don’t be surprised. Such quirks are unimpossible in English… /s
Privacy is not binary, it is a spectrum.
You have no fucking idea what a beautiful thing you just wrote.
Not an email service per se, but rather an email-forwarding service, and offers unlimited duck [dot] com aliases with their browser extension and/or mobile app.
I have used their email forwarding service for a while (it is quite decent) before moving over to Firefox Relay.
And if you wsnt a FOSS option for unlimited email aliases - Duckduckgo is a good option.
Earlier I was wanking for no reason, but now I get to showcase my c*m to investors - yaay

Clearly that’s what a human driver would do, but I guess those Rider Support Agents work for free, so why not fire the driver? /s
