So, how many lemmynsfw.com communities have you blocked?

  • All of them. I'm browsing /all simply to block more, so that they won't accidentally show in my feed.

  • It's public: https://discord.gg/qYWxqva

    They change the invite code every week, so better be quick ;-)

  • Juvenile Justice was really great, but it's hard to say why without getting into spoiler territory. Let's just put it down to overall character development.

  • Just trendy. Alice in Borderland (Japanese) was a million times better with a similar story but somehow less hype.

  • Not currently. It's a much requested feature, but the devs aren't working on it yet, and no idea whether it's going to be prioritized in the future.

    Some apps are implementing it though, and there are browser plugins (tampermonkey scripts) achieving it as well: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469297-block-lemmy-instances (using that myself to block lemmynsfw.com)

  • I can reach it just fine. Maybe you need to flush your cache / DNS?

    Generally speaking though, unless they have provided alternative means of contact and you saved them prior to the outage, there's nothing you can do. Same if they decide to shut down - the instance and your account would be lost, and that's that.

    Edit: you can look up the owner of the domain on sites like https://who.is, but more often than not they use anonymizer services to not reveal their residential address. The given email address there might however serve as a forwarder to their actual one.

  • Just use the 1.1.1.1 app, or on your computer (or router) change the DNS to 1.1.1.1

    Indonesia is soft blocking via DNS only, very easy to bypass.

  • Using a dedicated browser should be good enough. Since you might need some proprietary google stuff, I'd suggest chromium portable, that way once the class is over, you can simply delete the whole folder and call it a day.

  • Insights by Ground AI

    Do yourself a favor and block this trash AI news aggregator, they provide no value.

  • Hey hey hey that's my job.

  • I usually stop at one, when I remember that I don't actually like them.

  • ABAM (All Billionaires Are Morons)

    Bill Gates is actually a very smart, and nowadays even pleasant, man.

  • ReadEra.

    The free app is so bloody good and adfree already, I bought it just to support the developer after using it for 8 years or so.

    Tried several others before and nothing comes even close.

    Android, no idea if any other version exists.

  • Because it's talking about a report without linking to any report. That's shouting into the void at best, clickbait at worst.

  • What report?

    Edit: https://purl.stanford.edu/vb515nd6874

    Somehow the link in the post is broken. Trying to share it copies the link. Weird.

  • On mobile I'd suggest Fennec instead of stock Firefox since you can use add-ons without limitation, and don't need workarounds such as the Firefox nightly.

    It's basically stock with enabled add-ons, and following the official release cycle with 2-3 days delay. Maintained by the original developers of the F-Droid store, so also a highly trustworthy source IMHO.

  • Reminds me of the movie "I origins" (the maternity ward part). If you haven't seen it, it's one of my all time favorites - and better to be watched without knowing what it's all about, too easy to spoiler.

  • Versuch's mal mit der App 1.1.1.1 von Cloudflare, damit kannst du in der Regel alle DNS bedingten Probleme umschiffen. Kostet nix.

  • Sync for Lemmy.

    It's in alpha and already better than all of the other apps (and yes, I've tried every single one available for Android).

    China's export restrictions on gallium and germanium is just the beginning

    Unbedingt benötigte Apps?

    Moin!

    Bin zwar Deutscher aber wohne schon seit 17 Jahren im Ausland. In den letzten 5 Jahren war ich gar nicht mehr zurück, von einer kurzen Dienstreise mal abgesehen, wo ich aber nix privat unternommen hab.

    Jetzt werd ich aber nächste Woche endlich mal wieder privater Natur zurückkommen, und mit meiner Frau, die noch nie in der EU war, unter anderem auch DE bereisen.

    Gibt es insbesondere seit covid neue must-have apps?

    Danke!

    Any must-have apps these days?

    So I'm actually German but haven't been back home in 5+ years, except for a short business trip where I didn't really do all that much.

    Now I'm going back for a few weeks almost exclusively for touristy purposes (my wife has never been to the EU), and I'm wondering what's really changed / what is considered must-haves these days?

    Did Astrill (Android) just kill all OpenWEB torrent enabled servers?

    Only tangentially related to China, but since most users will have Astrill, I thought I might as well check with you.

    Since this morning I can only see a bunch of US servers, plus a handful of EU ones - it's like the list was cut down by 50% or more. And the remaining servers are all not-starred, i.e. don't permit torrents.

    Stealth got all the options still, but using stealth on mobile somehow blocks wechat (despite smart mode being enabled), and that sucks.

    Could someone confirm my observation before I open a ticket with Astrill?

    Edit: On Desktop (Windows) I still get all servers in OpenWEB.

    Edit 2: The servers appear to be mostly back, but are now missing the star marking them to be torrent accessible.

    Gift idea?

    Hi all,

    Currently looking for a gift for someone who actively enjoys capsule coffee and won't deviate from this disgraceful life choice.

    So now I want to gift him something coffee related without being (a) capsules or (b) an alternative coffee maker.

    Other than the usual (milk foamer, cups, literature), do you have any creative ideas?

    I just can't wait to get the first working version on my phone. Literally grinning like an idiot just now.

    Jerboa @lemmy.ml

    Some alternative app icons

    Quite like the development of Jerboa as it stands, but I found the icon of the app to be a bit uninspired (and personally I need to have a dark background so stuff doesn't stand out too much).

    Anyway, I got some time on hand last night and prompted DALL-E to create some Jerboa-inspired icons, and after going through dozens and dozens of iterations, prompts and refinements, I was left with 5 that I really like, cleaned them up and tuned them a bit in Photoshop this morning, and here we are:

    Now I have no clue what that means in terms of licensing and whatno

    Favorite cold brew recipe?

    Wondering which beans, grind size, water to coffee ratio and extraction times you are using?

    And temperature, if that's anything specific.

    Reddit blackout - watch it burn!

    Bunch of sites are streaming the sinking ship in real time:

    Here's my favorite: https://www.twitch.tv/rawreporting

    Let's see what the next 48h are gonna bring... My guess? Not much, and we'll just keep moving forward. Screw them.

    A word of advice for users in China

    Please continue using a VPN when visiting this channel, or using Lemmy in general.

    Most - if not all - sites are not blocked and can be reached freely, but that also means your ISP can keep tabs on you.

    Why the reddit lockdown?

    As some of you have read in the sticky, elsewhere on reddit, or on your favorite news outlet, Reddit Inc. has announced to introduce a major change starting July 1st: Their API (in layman's terms, that's the software behind the website that communicates with the outside world that doesn't use a regular web browser - such as apps, bots, browser extensions...) is no longer going to be free. And we get that, providing such an interface costs money. But instead of using a reasonable pricing that allows third party developers to use subscription models to cover the expenses, they went down the deep end and quote prices that essentially force most - if not all - third party apps to shut down for good. Apps like Apollo, [Sync](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditsync/comments/144jp3w/sync_will_shut_down_on_june_30_2023
