I wonder why we don’t have AI browser extensions that can recognise and obscure possible ads / unwanted content yet
Hi, i’m into programming, sexual transmutation and psychedelics!
Reddit sucks :)

I will add another amazing alternative i’ve found, currently working great: https://www.distractionfreeapps.com/ This was exactly what i was looking for.
Hisense A9 with full root + microG
A minimalist eink anti addictive machine that brings smartphones back to an actually useful tool removing literally all the bullshits.
I like Debian with GNOME
Video editing softwares definetely, kdenlive is nothing compared to stuff like sony vegas.
There’s Bitcoin and lightning network :)
This app is amazing! I loved the infinity design, that’s so fucking amazing you took the time to bring it on Lemmy, i never really liked Jeroba!
I simply backup the /home folder, where the important files are with duplicity on my home server with ftp once a week, keeping records of the last 6 months. But as that only restores the home folder i also take a snapshot (which takes way more disk space) every month with timeshift too, which stays on the pc. Would be great if i could take complete snapshots via ftp just like with duplicity, but timeshift doesn’t do that.
The RSS feature is amazing, i wanted to do something like that with RSS Bridge, but it looks like both Instagram and Facebook are doing their best to block exactly these kind of things, so it works half of the times and it needs to be fixed quite often, i think now it doesn’t work very well either… Also it is very complicated to be set up if you don’t know a bit of PHP. Of course i’m willing to learn but all this blocking that projects like this (see Barinsta or Bibliogram) get is really discouraging. I think Meta content is probably one of the worst to scrape.
Regarding Proxygram: for now it works, i’m using a public istance to grab some RSS feeds, if it proves to be reliable i will be happy to host my own istance as well, if possible :) It’s sometimes slow to grab data (i guess because sessions get easily blocked/limited, getting error 500) but not really a problem as i just want to see new events every couple of days, one issue tho is that the RSS doesn’t show all the posts (only showing the last three of them), which can be annoying as you may lose something if you don’t see it and save it.
EDIT: It actually does get other posts as well, just reaaally slowly, meaning that if you follow really large accounts in a week or so you can find your feed full of older posts marked as unread.
Anyway thanks to whoever is making the hard job of building/owning an instagram scraper, I really know it can be tough.
Exactly lmao
I love Lemmy because you can see that people actually understand that foss platforms don’t keep themselves up magically but there’s actually people involved that work hard for making internet a better place without any economical incentive, but just their ideal.
Not necessarily, of course open source is better, but i really just want something that gives me power over the content i can see, this is usually what happens in open source, that’s why i posted here, but im open to closedsource solutions. I didn’t know of the existence of modded stuff like this. How can they mod a closed source app? Are they partner with instagram? How does it work? Do they just scrape content like anyone else? How are they not getting banned like other scraper apps?
Debian with GNOME
If you search it online you can find that people have some issues with computer running amd ryzen processor and the adb and fastboot commands, i don’t know if it’s the case, but i couldn’t find any other reasons on why a TWRP nandroid backup that was completely fine when i took it and didn’t prompt any error couldn’t be restored.
It’s not a disk image, it is a particular type of compression that packs up different parts of the system (system, data, vendor etc…).
I also tried to enter the backup by using a tool that converts .ab backup in .tar, but i didn’t manage to do it.
Anyway i don’t really care if i lost that particular backup, i just want to avoid it to happen again
How do you sandbox google apps in android?
Yeah the web version is cool but it doesn’t give you the navigation and can’t find your position, usually i wouldsearch for a destination in webview and open it in another nav, but that doesn’t work well if you are by foot for example…
But that might actually be the case tho, because i don’t get any position without my cellphone data active (only with GPS it can’t find a position) that might explain why it gets so long sometimes.
Yeah but with graphene at least you can limit the permissions google maps has and treat the app like every other normal app, isolated and not able to grab informations if you’re not using it, i wonder if there’s a way to use it with an anonymous google account just like Aurora.
Yeah sure planning ahead helps, but it’s difficult when everyone else you are with has a different workflow or if something unexpected happens…
I will try osmand again for public transports, but the problem is sometimes with the mozilla geolocation services (default in lineage) you get your position after 10 minutes (or you just don’t get it sometimes) and it isn’t precise at all, in my experience it was working well with car but by foot it just can’t sort out where you are…
For the google phone it’s not just the thing of giving money to google, it’s also that i’m tired of phones you cannot unmount, change battery or other basic pieces like the screen, i would get a fairphone, but i’m not really sure the price is worth it.
I tried osmand, but was working even worse with finding my position and getting me to places
That’s actually a good option, but i guess i would need to install Gapps and google geolocation service too, is it possible inside shelter?
It’s the path of many of us here, now you will hate linux if you come from windows, give it a couple of months and you’ll ask yourself how the fuck you could be on windows till now.
