If you are using a lemmy app on your phone, switch to the list view so that the thumbnail becomes smaller and the title important parts appear easily interactable.

Yeah boost is definitely good, it was my main app until a few months ago. Recently I have been trying Connect, which is another great app.
Connect has improved a lot since I first tried it, also doesn’t have any ads. But all things considered - Boost is bit more polished than connect.
I think it’s the Boost app.
I find Boost for lemmy to work really well for me. I also use Voyager as a backup.
My msi motherboard randomly erases boot entries, I have to keep the computer on for a few minutes and reboot so that my other boot entry appears.
It maybe a problem with the m.2 slot, but it has been the case ever since I bought the motherboard.
Anyways I’m gonna stick to a different manufacturer for my motherboard if I’m building a new PC.
I use a firefox addon to hide shorts. works most of the time I guess.
I agree. Having loops within pixelfed makes more sense.
I have tried Buyvm when I was getting into selfhosting during the pandemic.
They were pretty cheap too, not sure about the pricing these days but you should take a look.
Recently I have started using this app called Nightwave Plaza. It has a surprisingly good selection of chill music that I can play in the background.
From the image, I have seen 3 of them on my youtube homepage.
It’s such a distraction while you are browsing for videos… Recently I have been trying this extension to block off shorts. I think it works for the most part.
Hope this helps someone.
Doesn’t that violate Youtube’s ToS ?
Thats a cool feature for sure but I don’t trust opera.
I have used Freebsd for sometime on my desktop back in 2021. For the most part I had a good experience except that I couldn’t figure out how to connect earphones/mic on the ports on my PC case. I had to plug it directly to my motherboard for Freebsd to detect them. I used an Nvidia card at that time and it also worked very nicely although it had much older drivers than Linux.
I ended up switching back to linux because of 2 reasons -
I have a few BTRFS drives that I use regularly and couldn’t afford to buy some new ones for Freebsd at that time.
I couldn’t play games using steam proton. I don’t know the situation these days, but I’ll surely check it out If it has improved since then.
You should give Freebsd a try, you might like it.
I usually use audiobookbay.
I want to thank you so much for suggesting this. I’m almost caught up with all the episodes of the podcast and I’m hooked. I just wish I had the time to follow up each episode with supplementary reading.
P.S: sorry for necroposting !
I was super interested in getting a job in cybersec, especially red team. But unfortunately no one wanted a fresher like me when I graduated.
Then things led to one another and I found myself working as a web developer. I’d still jump to a good cybersec job if I ever land one.
I’m in India. Everyone I talk to just recommend either working as a developer or working abroad.
They do have a reason for saying this though. The average electrician , plumber and carpenter that they know are all make enough to survive but not enough to lead a lavish lifestyle. People who work in waste management and transport usually make even less than electricians and plumbers.
Maybe things are changing these days, I’ll have to talk to the right people to get a better idea…
If you don’t mind, what set of skills got you employed ?
You might want to check out Vendure . Haven’t used it so I can’t give my opinion on it but generally I have heard good things about it.
The other option would be Wordpress + Woocommerce like others mentioned.
Some sort of journaling really helps when you feel like you have no direction. You can turn back the pages and see what path you took and even identify some ideas or values you want to implement in your life moving forwards. I recommend a notebook instead of a digital notes app.
This is a habit that I formed fairly recently 3-4 years ago I think. Initially I was writing down on smaller notepads which tend to get filled up quickly. Now I use a dotted notebook, so that I can draw something if I need to (although unruled notebooks also work)
Don’t obsess over decorating it like the bullet journal folks do on YouTube/Instagram and if you are thinking of using apps like obsidian or logseq - don’t go too far down the rabbit hole , just write down something instead.
You can have something like tasks.org for todos (organize your day) and a physical notebook to develop a vision (get some direction in your life)
