    I have an old pc running windows 10, it would be cool if it stops getting updates. Makes for a nice offline pc to get some old apps and games running in the future.

    I started using YTDLP to download the shows I care about and have them saved offline.

    I used to watch a show that got taken down. The show came back online few months later with heavy modifications to remove any potential DMCA footage from it.

    If you can get your hand on a ThinkPad that would be great. They are usually rugged and built to last. You can install windows or Linux on it.

    I don't mind giving graphene a try but I'll be honest, I have the following issues:

    • Need to buy a pixel phone for this.
    • I use a memory card so pixel phones might not be an option.
    • fear of bricking a phone that I just got.

  • Hey Reddit lurkers! my ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is on Android now

    I do have two questions here to be honest,

    1. Why post on lemmy when you can post it on Reddit? Increased visibility?
    2. Why use this instead of RedReader?

    Shit move from Spez. But let's be honest, the issue is that he might be able to paywall some subreddits that are niche and provide support on certain subjects that usually can't be found anywhere.

    Thats not how it works. If a server is streaming ads to you then it shouldnt be a problem detecting that and blocking out that server.

    What Google is doing is baking in the ad into the video so that the video itself has the ad embedded into it. This way you cant block a certain server from serving ads. And if those ads baked in have different duration for each user, then SponsorBlock stop behaving properly as it uses timestamps to skip segments.

    The issue is that Sponsorblock uses timestamps of videos to skip segments. If the ads injected all have different durations, then SponsorBlock is now obsolete.

  • I use the follow system when setting a theme. However, Thunder defaults to gray theme rather than amoled. Would love to have the option to set a preferred dark theme so that it defaults to the amoled option instead.

    Apologies, not sure if the option is available. Can we have the option of exporting voyager settings to a local file and restore it when needed? Voyager updates have been failing lately and the only way to update it is to remove the app, download the APK, reinstall it, then amend settings again.

    Voyager is an amazing app but to me it lacks one feature. A client like Thunder has this feature where you can control the zoom level by double tapping, holding, then swiping up or down an image. It's great for single handed use. Would it be possible to implement something like that in voyager?

    The ACCOUNTS title has been capitalised while every other title on other screen has the first letter in uppercase only. This only happens when choosing the android theme. Choosing the apple theme seems to be fine. The android theme has been improved but having this capitalised makes it look jarring. Voyager v1.45

    Usernames are shown as coloured blocks instead of letters. Works fine on other apps. Link to post: https://lemmy.world/post/10066188

    Bloody Samsung think a base S24 for €900 is cheap. Not to mention the shitty Exynos it comes with in Europe.

    Even when the haptic feedback turned off, it still ocurrs. I am using voyager 1.31.3 native on android. To reproduce the issue, just choose any post and click the three dots option. A menu should slide up with options such as upvote, downvote, or save. Simple place your finger and hold on one of these options. If you swipe your finger up or down through the option a haptic feedback occurs.

    When viewing images, can the option of double tapping then holding, and then swiping to zoom in and out be implemented?

    Hello everyone. I apologise in advance if this is the wrong place to post this question. I am not sure if this exists, but, is there a website or a graph somewhere that shows the market share/downloads/installs or all Lemmy apps available? Thank you.

    It's been some time since we received any updates. Will an upgrade to Lemmy 0.19 break the app?

    I have been using WefWef (I still adore that name WefWef :) ) for some time and loving it. However, I have the below two feature requests if possible: 1. The card view is great, but would love to have to the option of adding a fixed height to those cards. 2. The top bar and the bottom bar remain viewable while scrolling. Would love to have the option of introducing an auto hide for those two elements to get full screen view of contents. Apologies if this is the wrong place to request features, hope that is ok with you [@aeharding@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/aeharding)
