  • Why in the first place people still use Linkedin? I used it once, and to be honest is just Facebook but for applying to work easier

  • FUCK. This was my favorite distro and I've been using it for over 2 years :(.

    Headphone sound quality drops when someone else is using their mic

    While playing and someone is using their microphone to talk, my own headphones quality drops at the point that my game sounds like someone is talking through a tunnel, and I didn't even using my own mic, I'm just listening to their mic through some game channel or platform.

    Another example is while I'm on some Teams meeting, my overall audio goes to shit even if I'm just listening...

    I have read some older posts on Reddit that says that this happens because Bluetooth headphones with included mic cannot handle well both communications and they have to lower all the audio in order to keep the stability, but there's really no another way to fix this other than buying wired headphones or using an external mic? It sounds dumb to me, I just don't want to use my mic, why in the first place is my own PC/Headphone deciding when lower quality just because someone else is chatting through their mic?

    Edit: I'm using Sennheiser Accentum Plus

  • I don't know anything about this show, but I can confirm that it had some good furry characters.

  • "Can you repeat that until I get it?"

  • These are not real annoying repetitive sounds (ARS), the real ARS are those short format videos that repeat over and over again on someone's phone, that's a real pain.

  • I love this artist.

  • I have tried, the pop-up is indeed removed but the background remains gray and you can't scroll, there is like an invisible gray wall that can't be removed, and I have tried to activate the annoyance filters without any success.

    Is there a way to view Facebook posts without an account?

    I don't need anyone to tell me that Facebook sucks because I already know that, and I would never use it unless in my country, for reasons unknown to me, public and private institutions use Facebook as a primary method of sharing news, such as schedules or promotions.

    I don't have the slightest intention of creating a Facebook account, but as I said, I need to see posts from certain Facebook accounts and every time I go to a Facebook page and scroll for 2 seconds I get a pop-up forcing me to create an account. And as far as I know, there is no sort of Piped front-end for Facebook, I would appreciate any help.

  • Technically it is not stealing, because it is a digital good. πŸ€“

  • Didn't know about it, thanks!

  • There should be some alternative community to post yiff once Yiffit closes it doors. :(

  • And best of all, they still don't have the eggs or the milk, lol

  • Maybe he upload interesting videos, but I only saw 5 seconds of video and he gave me a stroke, did not support those unnatural movements and all that style.

    Turn off Bluetooth/GPS if is not being used

    When I use my GPS app or I want to use my Bluetooth headphones I need to turn on those services, but only in those scenarios, once I'm done using them I don't want them to be always on, is there a way to automatically turn them off is they are not being used?

    I tried Tasker but the "Turn off Bluetooth if not being used" profile wasn't working at all.

    How to unlock fps in Sway specifically for fullscreen programs (games)

    So I got a 180hz monitor and installed Sway (Garuda Linux) in my new machine, the only problem I have is that I can unlock my FPS for the PC as a whole using the display software that comes with Garuda, but not specifically for games or full screen programs. I don't want to use Firefox at 180hz, I just want my games to run at the maximum refresh rate my monitor can handle.

    Thanks.

    When will vertical tabs be released for the stable channel?

    I used them when they were released a while ago for the nightly version of Firefox, and actually in the stable channel we are in Firefox 130 and still no vertical tabs, does anyone know an aproximate version when they will be available for the stable channel?

    When closing Spotify in i3wm, the program closes instead of minimizing itself to tray

    I have already Googled about this but didn't find a solution, maybe someone else here has experienced this too? And to add some more details, I use ArcoLinux and I had already toggle 'Close button should minimize Spotify Window'.

    Thank you!

    Lemmy communities dedicated to Lemmy's frond-ends

    I have been investigating if there is a community dedicated to Photon (a great Lemmy front-end) that doesn't seem to have an exclusive option to search for communities, does anyone know if there is an exclusive community for Photon (or Lemmy front-ends in general)?

    Filen automatic background upload

    I really want to try Filen as my main cloud provider but my main brake point is that the app doesn't automatically upload my images in the background. I'm not sure if this is because I'm on the free plan or because of my device, has anyone had better luck with the automatic image upload in the background?

    Thoughts about Posteo?

    I've thinking about ditching my Protonmail email address with Posteo since I need IMAP support (because I hate using the Protonmail app) and honestly paying for Proton Mail Plus didn't worth the money because they are pushing me to buy the Protonmail Unlimited but I don't need all those capabilities nor would I use them and the best alternative I've found is Posteo and honestly I like it, I even got CalDAV support which I didn't have in Protonmail, but personally I don't know anybody who use Posteo, so I post this here.

    Do you think Proton Unlimited worth the price?

    I've thinking about purchasing Proton Mail Plus only and just only to have IMAP support, but I've looked all the features that the Proton Unlimited Plan have, and honestly I believe it's worth, but I hate having all the eggs in the same basket.

    The features I believe worth the most are the 500GB storage, IMAP support, all the VPN servers with P2P and unlimited SimpleLogin aliases, but when I ask if it is worth the price I mean, the majority of those features I can have them having individually with others services and even at lower price.

    Recommended instance to upload short videos

    I want to upload some videos to Peertube to share here in Lemmy, but I'm not sure how to find an instance where I can upload them.

    I don't want to be 'picky' since I know I'm using another person's hardware that costs money to maintain, but the majority of Peertube instances I had found the users can't upload videos at all, or have a ridiculous minimum of like 25 MBs per file... And I had found other instances where the user can upload anything he wants, but how do I know that instance will prevail? I mean I had accounts in multiple Peertube instances that after some time are unreachable, it literally gives you an nginx or 'page not found' error...

    I know I can host it myself and that's the best option, but I don't have the knowledge or hardware to do it.

    For Yiffit users that cannot use the instance

    I just saw in the admin Mastodon account that you need to clear your cookies, and that's it, which actually worked for me. I'm not sure why.

    I have been an active user of different Lemmy.ml communities for a long time but for personal reasons I want to migrate from Dbzer0 to Yiffit, unfortunately to my surprise Lemmy.ml stopped federating with Yiffit a few months ago and honestly it saddens me because there are communities like c/linux, c/privacy, c/firefox, c/fdroid that are extremely useful and I love to participate in them.

    Is there any chance that Yiffit will be federated again? And why was it defederated from Lemmy.ml?

    The admin of Yiffit is an incredibly nice person and I'm sure he will want to come to collaborate to be able to federate again with Lemmy.ml. As a user I find it a little unfair not to be able to participate in these communities from this instance but I understand and respect that each instance has its own policies and decisions.

    Sometimes a good way to 'learn Linux' is to use a WM

    I have been using Linux for about 5 years and although I don't consider that I know much, I know enough to fix my own problems and that's usually enough for me.

    Since Plasma 6 was announced I wanted to test something other than XFCE, Gnome or Plasma (or any DE) so I give it a try with ArcoLinuxD i3wm and is increible the amount of things I learn the 'hard way' because there was no GUI to do the things I want to do, or maybe I was too lazy to do it with the terminal since there is always the 'easy way'.

    Things that might be very easy for a lot of people, but I never take the time to learn, like mounting drives, running programs from startup, setting environment variables, creating desktop entries, and a lot of other things I didn't even remember. I even learned to use things that used to give me a headache just looking at it, like Vim, xdg, the Archwiki (that is super useful) and the manpages.

    It's ironic because something that started as an experiment is now my daily drive, and now

    Is the instance still accepting new users? (Yep, still does!)

    I don't mean to be annoying, but it's been some time since I submitted my registration request, and I still haven't received an update on it, so I don't know if it will ever be accepted.

    I feel like I am in an endless loop

    Every time I open e621 I spend between 30 minutes to 2 hours every day (or sometimes more than once a day) and it's because every time I open it there are ALOT of new posts and artists that I didn't even know existed and I look at all their posts and repeat.

    I'm not asking for help and I can control this, but it's like what the Youtube algorithm is for some people who spend a lot of time just scrolling without watching any videos.

    Honestly, it's impressive the quality that's in e621.

    Does this happen to you?

    How to use Alt+Tab Number to go beyond tab 9

    When you use Alt+Number you automatically switch to the tab that is assigned that number, but when you have more than 9 tabs Alt+9 just switches to the last tab instead of opening tab number 9, and you can't go beyond tab number 9 either, is there any way to go to tabs beyond 9 with Alt+Number?

    Maybe I'm forgetting something, but according to something I read, per week a user can get up to 10 random drops but I've been playing for almost 10 hours and I haven't got even one, why?

    Userscript recommendations?

    I recently started using Violentmonkey and there are hundreds of absolutely great scripts like some that help you go straight to the download link instead of shorteners (very common on pirate sites), and there are also some scripts for downloading music from Spotify (I guess using Youtube), but I hardly know any more, anyone know of some scripts for general use or useful for pirating?

    How do you keep up with your favorite artists' posts? (e621)

    Personally I'm sure that if e621 had some kind of 'following' functionality I would probably follow hundreds of artists but as far as I know e621 doesn't provide this kind of functionality, so how I usually keep up with my favorite artists' posts it's just manually searching by their name but just as I said, I easily know more than a hundred artists and usually going one by one is pretty tiring, besides, how am I supposed to know the name of each artist? I barely know by heart the name of the ones I usually look for, but there are many others that I just favorite a post I like and forget about them, because I forget their name and I have many favorites...
