Yea, it's crashy enough already but one of the last few updates was a fucking mess!

Very interesting, I doubt it's going to stay there long because this is literally the first third party frontend of all kinds I as privacy enthusiast have ever seen accepted and I really wonder how they did that!

It uses Piped servers to proxie the videos which hide your IP address but those servers are run by volunteers and aren't always perfect so it's more of a hit or miss but if one doesn't work I usually switch and doing that between kavin.rocks, libre.kavin.rocks and adminforge.de usually works very well for me, I just wish there was a proper way to store my subscriptions locally beside not using a Piped account at all!

That's something I am also very much interested in but I haven't looked it up or tried yet so no clue!

Third party frontends of all kinds are forbidden on the Play and App store but we Android users have F-Droid and if the license is changed at some point (it's supposed to be temporary as far as I understand) it will probably land there, till then Obtanium is probably your best bet I guess.

Almost no third party frontend supports iOS because of their absolutely shitty sideloading limitations and they still work great...

I will keep a eye on it but till the license changes I will stick with my tried and true Newpipe and Libretube apps. Both of those are "improved revanced" to me already but the idea of multiple sources is a cool one, not new but certainly cool and I haven't seen Nebula in other attempts but I just wish people could agree on a addon standard to implement services for various of those apps and media centers at once!

There is a difference between open source and source available...

Small creators have terrible rates for Spotify because they pocket most of the money themself, even many big creators struggle to make significant money with that peace of shit of a app and they have far better rates so I get the idea but you are very wrong!

The meme is good but I refuse to read the xomments below it, I am very close to quitting Lemmy for good already and only look at my own feed and my local timeline by now because the rest is fucking disgusting!

I had Ark which I want to play for over five years by now but considering I never thought about it again till now it's probably not the biggest loss!

I made a account ages ago and got two or three free games but I can't find it anymore and honestly don't really give a shit ether, I got more than enough unplayed games on Steam!

 

I own a Pinephone for years now and there is one feature that never did anything but waste battery life and that's the notification LED! It keeps blinking for eternity if it starts once, triggers for no reason from time to time, activates for every little action even if the notification is long gone or disapers the second you try to look at it and is bright enough to light a entire room at night! I looked around online and apparently it's usually linked to some Systemd component but PostmarketOS uses OpenRC, is there any config to easily disable it under all circumstances or something?

Edit: I counted on a feedbackd equivalent but apparently it uses feedbackd too, that just doesn't seem to handle the LED, just notifications and vibration.

Edit 2: I managed to find promising configs in /sys/class/leds but the max_brightness files which seem like the solution to me are read only and I am not sure if I can safely bypass that or if I will break something and I have no clue if it will even help.

Edit 3: There is also a file called "repeat" in there and I can set that to 1 which reduces the blinking to a single time but the system keeps overwriting it so I don't think that's going to be a solution.
