Added to my wishlist, thanks :)

Thanks for this. I was already using Inoreader (with a Supporter subscription) and they made it easy to grab my Pocket content.

Now the only thing I need to figure out is what I’ll do as a replacement to the Kobo + Pocket integration.

Some workplaces disable the ability to enroll TOTP codes and forces the use of MS Authenticator.

Once you detach your mind from the big publishers and start looking at small indie devs, there are truly astonishing games out there that could run on potatoes.

My good old RX 480 will last me for a while longer.

Would you mind tagging the post with the appropriate language?

I enjoy watching a dumpster fire once on a while and putting a ♥️ on stuff Elon Musk definitely doesn’t like.

It also stripped the webpage to make it readable and mostly distraction-free, plus some services will also include tag suggestions to more easily find it later.

I used Pocket on my Kobo to read articles I saved, much easier to focus on the content and easy on the eyes with the eInk display.

I use Inoreader as my RSS feed reader and it has a section to save webpages in a similar fashion.

It shifts the wavelength into the visible range, it doesn’t grant you the ability to see new “colors”. It’s more like a translation into a color you already know.

I hope there is some pressure to cut this monopolistic bullshit. The permission system is there, no need for an extra watchdog.

You take that back.

They’re applying the techbro startup “move fast and break thing” motto, which can be a good strategy while you’re small to disrupt the established players.

Not souch when you’re a behemoth like the goverment that can’t adjust its trajectory on a whim when facing an imminent collision, and the general public ends up with the short stick while the oligarchs picks up the pieces of a self-sabotaging system.

The only time it paid off for me was for VPN Unlimited and Plex and even then, I barely use the former and Plex is being enshittified.

That and the process of being audited for your app to gain access to Google Drive is apparently a nightmare on top of being super expensive.

No wonder so many apps don’t even bother adding the ability to sync files with like Joplin.

I hope the EU eventually crack down on that bullshit.

People with non-rooted phones won’t get automatic updates via F-Droid which is a big hurdle.

Not true if the app to update targets a high enough API version (I think API 34 or 35) and if you use F-Droid Basic.

NOTE: The Basic version of F-Droid Client has a reduced feature set (e.g. no nearby share and no panic feature). It targets Android 13 and can do unattended updates without privileged extension or root.

Good thing that such clauses are null and void in Québec, Canada.

Broadcom is where previously good softwares go to die.

Proxmox, Nutanix, Canonical and Incus must be quite happy with the new customers.

That July 2024 outage must have hit their forecast pretty hard. Best wishes to those affected :(

TL;DR: The first test was a total disaster and my phone wasn’t located until an hour after it was back next to me.

One more reason to not put all of your social media eggs in the same basket.
