In this day and age where most of not all modern media library management software can decipher almost anything without any problem, is that really an issue?

When LastPass got hacked I switched to bitwarden and never looked back. Simple and effective interface, works on all platforms, I love it!

I know I can’t escape Google’s Orwellian surveillance entirely but I limit what I can, and adblockers/ trackerblockrers play a huge part in this.

Revanced is pretty much perfect for my needs.

And SmartTube on my Android TV.

Its an in house utility… But I would assume something similar already exists out there

One more thing to add to the Google Graveyard

Its a very simple low ressource video server utility that I’m using for easy access at work.

Its basically a stupid low footprint plex-like local web server that uses the browser’s internal HEVC support to play and cast to my TV.

With MS hinting at SAAS for Win12 with Copilot, this will be a good test.

Nobody can profit off “monthly usage credits” or without a subscription.

At least not until the tech becomes more affordable.

Firefox doesn’t have native HEVC support. So I switched to Opera because no other browser except for Safari has that feature.

Supposedly Edge has it, but couldn’t get it to work on my media server app.

I tried Opera on a few of my devices lately and frankly I’m impressed by the responsiveness. I still can’t get rid of Firefox but I find myself moving over to Opera more and morem

Much like GIFs, MP3s will never go away.

Sure there are better alternatives, but widespread adoption over decades now is hard to gloss over.

Google has truly mastered the fine arts of wasting money

VLC but it wasn’t love at first sight, but it opened a whole new world of FOSS to me

To this day I still don’t know why the fuss about VLC, I prefer MPC-HC

Why? I mean it’s much better to have the messenger app without all the facebook BS.

Its very easy to disregard facebook in 2023, but Messenger is still one of the more prominent messaging app.

You can’t force a woman to manage an OF account against her will, knowing VERY WELL what she’ll be exposed to. That’s fucked up.

I agree. I can already see a slight shift in his attitude since he stepped down, but clearly it’s not enough.

I simply cannot stand LTT. I wish there was a TLDW bot on lemmy. I’ve seen it in a couple of posts.

There’s no way the model is sustainable once everyone starts their streaming platform.

I started playing yesterday and couldn’t let go.

For those who don’t know yet: Firefox Nightly for Android let you install any extension you desire.

You just need to create a custom collection on the web site and link your ID in nightly.
