Firefox@fedia.io•Mozilla VPN's New Per-Site Controls Are Too Good to Ignore
2·8 months agoI hope they make this extension available for Firefox Android too. That’d relieve me of using two browsers in my phone, one for logged-in business (excluded from VPN) and the other for general browsing (with VPN).
Understood. Thanks for clarifying.
I wouldn’t call a half-baked search functionality as “minor” but that’s probably just me.
Jerboa sorely lacks the absolute basic feature of searching for keywords in posts. It only supports searching for community names. I can’t think of any other app that does NOT support general search.
So Voyager for me, mostly because it has the most active developer.

Ever since I heard this, I became relatively more compassionate towards people, even if they piss me off.

Yes.

Android@lemmy.world•What's your favourite paid Android app?English
11·1 year agoThe only paid app that I have is Moon+ Reader Pro.
I read a boatload of ebooks on my device, and this has been my ebook-reader of choice for a while. I found it to be so good that I did the IAP, and stopped using Librera Reader.
For all that matters, I am a huge supporter of FOSS apps (that’s the reason I have only one paid app lol) - but Moon+ reader Pro beats Librera in two areas - Librera is pretty slow when it tries to open a huge file, and Librera also can’t download book covers like Moon+ does.

72·1 year agoIn an instance like this, our riders have 24/7 access to Rider Support agents who will help them navigate the situation in real time
Clearly that’s what a human driver would do, but I guess those Rider Support Agents work for free, so why not fire the driver? /s

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is one (1) track from a video game OST I should put on my work playlist?
1·1 year agoI might come across as an obsolete dinosaur (which I probably am) - but I really enjoyed the tracks from Hitman game series, especially Exploration from Hitman 2 : Silent Assasin, and then became a fan of anything composed by Jesper Kyd.

101·1 year agoEver since TV remote was invented, people don’t even lift their asses off the couch and walk over to the TV to change the channel. Unless a company adapts to changing tech landscape, they can be many things, but not a company for grown-ups.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabledEnglish
4·1 year agoI just read about this extension today. Seems interesting. The description says It’s supposedly doing more than just switching the UA.
This article seems to assume that advertisers don’t want our identifying information, and are clamoring for an alternative to tracking that lets them measure ad performance anonymously, which is just not true. Being able to uniquely identify users and target them is a feature, and getting more data points from the browser just helps add to their profiles.

Technology@lemmy.world•Not a single video wants to be played. · Issue #11255 · TeamNewPipe/NewPipeEnglish
5·1 year agoYep, someone thought of porting the awesome Freetube app to Android. It’s not as polished as NewPipe, but gets the job done. Especially at this time, it’s the only one that is working, having both a local API as well as option to use Invidious API.
I pulled the apk straight from their github page via Obtainium. You may want to give it a try.

















Neither is this about an ideology per se nor is this quote my own - but I’ve read this somewhere -
“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.”
