I use freetube on desktop ( The libredirect extension make it an ease ), and since i watch subscribed channels in phone, i use revanced. So that i don’t cause viewership loss to them ( IDK it will affect them directly or not, just for my pleasure. )

I thought I would never have to see BSOD after switching to linux, but here we go…

[ tbh, I love that errors are presented much better, just that the name doesn’t bring back much good memories.

Glad that there are govt. level systems who make use of Linux (mostly ubuntu ) systems here. For eg. , in kerala, all govt schools and colleges use linux for computer labs and academic activities, i guess the local body administration too use ubuntu.

Only wish we could convince those private sector schools of the money they’ll save converting those slow windows systems to linux.

How are you still using that old os ? Also how does it perform ? do the modern web run in it ?

I don’t know about graphene, but doesn’t some android roms allow to use custom ( more private Webview implementations) instead of default ?

Doesn’t Tor on Tails come with ublock origin ? I don’t get why Tor doesn’t come with it preinstalled too

Probably that if possible, you can link to original article from itsfoss. And possibly for all such news ( unless its overly bloated / behind a paywall )

Yeah. I would’ve loved if it were optional / configurable .

Yeah, its as if some new developers entered or something. Or maybe they started posting little stuff more often.

Whatever it is, i’m glad.

And i use it with fish :)

First thing i do is disable bitlocker. Its PITA when dualbooting too

It mainly depends on your likes. What i did was to find one or two accounts related to my favourite topic and then checking their “following” tab. It really helps to Fill my feed

Also, most accounts boost other accounts/ post, which also acts as a way for me to discover accounts.

I think not. There only seems to be only 2 dev’s working on linux app, and thir current priority is to bring wireguard to the app and preferrably , an updated CLI too.

I think not. From the reddit discussion, it seems that only 2 dev’s ( they are hiring one more soon ) work for linux support, and they can’t currently spread too thin.

Tried it in debian today. Yeah, its bad that the app need to be open inorder to have connection. They could’ve made it go background ( like telegram or discord does ), which would be better.

Currently supported distros ( with installation guides ) :

• Debian - guide
• Ubuntu - guide
• Fedora -guide

Sadly, its still not available for arch.

I just had to uninstall “Enhancer for youtube”, and reload the YT page. Not even ubock cache clearing was necessary. ( maybe different for different people )

Right now, this feature is client specific. Some have it ( like Sync ), most dont.

The happy news is , a serverside option to block an instance is already merged and will be available in next (big) Lemmy upgrade 19.0. After that, the client apps will easily be able to implement it ( Now, i guess they are just filtering posts client side if from that instance )

Since that post was’nt available for me atm, just reposting relevant Github blog : 1-Click RCE on GNOME

The TL;DR

libcue is a library used for parsing cue sheets—a metadata format for describing the layout of the tracks on a CD. it’s used by tracker-miners: an application that’s included with GNOME.The index is automatically updated when you add or modify a file in certain subdirectories of your home directory, in particular including ~/Downloads. To make a long story short, that means that inadvertently clicking a malicious link is all it takes for an attacker to exploit CVE-2023-43641 and get code execution on your computer.

Usually that is the case. normally gnome stays in the testing repo for a few months. Gives enough time for extension managers to update extensions, and thus, us not having heavily broken workflows. It mostly will only be out as stable only after the gnome 45.1 release.
