We are in the mess that we are because less than 50% people vote in the first place.

Even if 90% people vote, if they only have choice between a turd or a piece of shit, that’s not really a choice 🫠

I just recently learned about azireVPN.

Any thoughts?

Azire looks great ! I’m interested on why you choose azire over protonVPN?

Maybe all package managers default to libtorrent 2.0.X, but that’s not true when downloading from the website.

Maybe you are a windows user?

Close enough… Got MacOS, Windows and EndeavourOS and there’s also an appimage available on their site so it’s not only because you’re a “Windows user”.

If only it would be that easy… First hurdle there is no “enable i2p on qbittorrent” ! After searxing around and coming across the last comment of a reddit post (not even the official forum), you have to download qbitorrent with libtorrent 2.0.x series.

On the qbittorent download page chose the qbitorrent version corresponding to your system with lt20.

Don’t make it sound I2P alongside qbitorrent is easy. It’s not ! There isn’t any proper tutorial on how to use i2p and eepsites in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, I’m doing my part, but for newbies/newcomers this sounds like an “install/forget” situation while it isn’t !

If you’re into selfhosting komga is a great alternative eBook, epub reader. Their native web reader is great and works flawlessly and your reading is synced on your server, so you can finish off where ever you’re ! (Yeah you need to be online sorry :/)

Though there isn’t a native reader for offline reading, you can install mihon and the komga plugin to fetch your server’s PDF files (doesn’t work with epubs). However, mihon only syncs your finished chapters.

That’s why I recommend to read with komga’s PWA as it works great and syncs on what page you finished off.

InnerTune is also a YouTube Music frontend. Dunno what trick they use but having a similar experience (even better?) than YouTube Music for free is a godsend !

I was a die hard VLC user but now I can’t live without MPV.

VLC does work great on Windows, but I had some issues on Linux & Android, solved by MPV. One simple example is with jellyfin on android. VLC as an external player sometimes doesn’t work great with ASS subtitles. VLC fell a bit behind on Linux/Android devices.

However on Windows, VLC would have been the first thing I would install alongside with Firefox.

Strangely enough, like the wikileaks scandal… Most people are forgetful. But not on purpose…

That’s how good they are in manipulating people’s mind.

That’s kinda reductive… But okay ! I use mostly protonVPN because of their free tier and being able to route all my traffic through the same tunnel.

Edit: Thank you, found it on your shared link ! 😄

Oh wow thank you ! Would it be to much to ask for a dark mode version? If there’s a one hit button to change into a more eye friendly color mode :)

Either way, thank your for sharing your work :))

Also, on your SMB server you need to add a specific configuration to play nice with OS X…

So yeah that’s on OP not reading through the documentation.

@reminder 20 years

Yeahh that’s the best IMO ! But I get most of the time stuck with some testOFtest001 files/directory… cause I’m lazy…

But I always ALWAYS regret it afterward… :/

Not a linux project, but OpenCamera for android is probably the only exception I know of. It’s still getting updated and does best what it’s supposed to do.

+1 for the android app ! If you’re “paranoid” you can block all apps by default and only allow apps you trust to connect to the internet. You can even for each app allow certain domains or IP’s, even wildcard domains for exemple to allow googles video chain like r3---sn-25glene6.googlevideo.com for only certain apps and not others… Like it’s fully customizable !!!

You can even hook your personal wireguard connection with DNS server like pihole…

RethinkDNS is awsome !

Hmmmm… Fractals 🤤

I academically know it’s bad and wildly problematic

What do you mean by that? How is it bad trying the save species from aquariums? Or trying the save a tribe from their own extinction because profit?

I’m mean those are good morals that should be taught at school, IMO way more important than history class which actually tells us how dumb we were and how dumb we still are.

[EDITED]

Maybe I got your comment wrong if so care to elaborate?

Thank you.

Logseq is a good alternative, if you like everything being a bulletpoint :/.

It doesn’t fit my note taking workflow and learning or translate to a new way of note taking style will take to much time/effort…

Guess I’m still stuck with Obsidian.
