That’s impossible. The Play Store app doesn’t care about Sync’s cache. That was simply coincidence.

Cleaning the Play Store app’s cache on the other hand might help.

:(

What an absolute bullshit of an explanation. I hate this. Just be honest and say it’s not worth it.

Settings shortcut: Privacy > Revoke GDPR consent for ads

For me, everything was disabled once I opened the dialog options. Legitimate interest was still enabled, but that’s compliant to the GDPR.

I’ve noticed that no ads are shown when you disable all tracking and reject cookies. Might be EU only though.

Where is the option to pay once? I can’t find it.

You don’t want the developer to earn any money?

So you literally need much more than a networked raspberry pi with a content hard drive, and Kodi installed anywhere.

But that’s the point I’m making. It’s absolutely fine that it’s not as simple as using a ready-made service. And we shouldn’t behave like it is, because that’s just not true.

And where does the content come from?

If that is your stance, then there is literally zero privacy anymore. Zilch.

If I’m walking down the street and somebody marks that one person walked down the street, does that invade my privacy?

In that case, how does the concept of privacy even matter anymore? There is none, and there never will be.

Even though many people suggest that, I don’t believe you can compare any off-the-shelf streaming service with a self-hosted Plex.

You have to find and download content to your Plex. You don’t get recommendations. You don’t get a built-in interface on your smart TV. You have to deal with network configuration, VPN, private trackers, seeding ratios etc.

How on earth is that comparable to pressing the Netflix button on your TV and selecting a recommended show? Even my boomer parents managed to do this on their own.

If we want a really free and open high quality codec, we should push for opus support via bluetooth

Isn’t the new default codec in BLE Audio LC3 free and open and high quality? And it’s required for BLE Audio support, so there will be more and more devices that support it.

Depending on what you’re watching, https://nebula.tv/ might be a very good alternative for thought-provoking content.

What’s the advantage of those over just adding those keywords to the browser’s search bar? I can type “gm anything” in all of my browser, and it will just open Google Maps directly. I don’t understand why people keep calling this a great feature of ddg when you can achieve the same without the detour through ddg.
