Nice find! How long have you been using it and how well has it been working for you? Any quirks with the mobile app or browser extensions or has it been pretty seamless?

Thank you!!!

I’ve been looking around for demos that would actually be more fun to play on the deck than playing on my PC. Right now I’m eyeing up one called Combat Complex that is a twin-stick shooter ARPG with shooting mechanics that look really juicy! I’m hoping to get it installed tomorrow and give it a shot 🤩

I’ve been using Raindrop for about five years. The solo dev really impressed me with his responsiveness to user feedback, so I started paying for premium ($30/yr) even though I don’t really need the extra features.

I’ve used the mobile app, Firefox extension, desktop app (Linux and Windows), and the web app. All have worked flawlessly and have grown more feature rich without ruining the user experience.

The features I use the most are:

• Endlessly nestable folders that I can give my own icons to make them significantly easier to navigate around
• Public collections so I can save my favorite GIFs and memes on a public page I can refer back to and share
• Tagging, descriptions, and notes so I can save a lot of context for each bookmark and why I saved it
• The built in preview for the mobile app feels buttery smooth, so I seldom open tabs in my mobile browser when I’m visiting my bookmarks
• The main premium features I actually use are the broken link detector to find links that no longer exist and the permanent copies of those pages

I haven’t had a chance to use the REST API, but it appears to be documented quite well.

Overall I’ve had such a pleasant experience that I’ve never looked at any other option.

Oh, goodness, this is the first time I’ve ever heard about Invidious. So my imagination jumped the gun and I didn’t give this gorgeous visual revamp the credit that it’s due! Thanks for your hard work!

Oh, this looks pretty promising!

Any idea of how much they’ve shared a roadmap? I’d love to see if they have goals to integrate other video platforms like PeerTube to make it more than just an alternative YouTube front-end.

This happened to me 2 years ago, so I know it’s really really tough. We put our old boy Stanley down on Christmas Eve and it was devastating. He was a long haired tuxedo that looked almost exactly like your sweet Belle.

I hope you take comfort in knowing that her last moments will be right by your side, where she likely feels the most at peace. And I also hope that you take care of yourself, take the time to grieve, and lean on your loved ones when you can.

A friend who I’ve only known through the Internet is flying up to a neighboring city. So, my husband and I are driving down to meet him in person for the first time.

It’s crazy that I’ve interacted with him for close to a decade without ever meeting him physically. Wish me luck!

With what I’ve been through, I’m beginning to wonder if OP is telling the truth 😂

About 7 years ago I got a call from some random lady in her 70s. Turns out her husband passed away not long ago and every computer in the house had Linux Mint installed. She needed someone to help her with some various simple techy things that her husband used to handle.

I couldn’t help but wonder how this random lady got my phone number. Turns out that one day, my Grandfather went on a walk down the road and this lady was outside tending to her garden. I have no clue how the conversation shifted to the topic of Linux, but it did. And my Grandpa knew I was in college for Computer Science, so he just volunteered me for this task.

Fast forward to today and I still help her out once or twice a year with whatever random questions pop up.

Sorry for your loss, friend.

I’ve tried to talk my husband into adding some rats into our family SEVERAL times. Usually I feel like I’m making compelling points and am close to convincing him. But then he usually hits me with the question: “How are you going to handle losing them after a few years?”

I never have a good answer to that one 😥

Wait, Pride in August? Is that normal in Akron?

I’ve had some luck blocking instances within mobile apps, but that doesn’t scale well if the number of toxic instances is constantly growing. I’m curious to see how this gets addressed in the long run (or if it is left as is, since it is technically working as designed).
