Get uBlock Origin and then YouTube will stop serving all ads. Or quit using YouTube entirely since Google is doing everything in their power to run the platform down the drain.

I run the self-hosted version, aside from having to deploy a couple Docker containers it’s pretty much the same as the SaaS product.

Your title should be “fuck subscriptions, except subscriptions from this site pulled from 1998” since everything in your guide relies on a paid debrid sub.

Maybe someone should fork Opencart and patch the security vulnerabilities and try to drive people away from this guy’s repo, since he’s just combative anytime someone raises a concern.

Or quit using his code altogether.

Oh cool, so Elon has helped contribute to the adderall shortage in a roundabout way.

What’s the point of this game, beyond letting them harvest user data to sell to data brokers? It doesn’t seem like this really integrates with Pokemon Go or the Switch games as far as syncing Pokemons between them, and anyone that actually cares about sleep tracking would be using their phone’s built-in health app or they’d have some top-rated sleep tracker from the app stores.

If it let you move Switch Pokemon over to be a day-care type thing while you sleep I could kinda see it having some use, but otherwise this just seems like shovelware with a Pokemon theme.

Probably, it’d be pretty stupid not to put his ex-Twitter engineers on the Threads projects. But it’s entirely legal to have your employees work on something close to what they did at their last job. I’d be very, very surprised if Meta knowingly allowed stolen IP to be incorporated into their new product, Musk needs to provide some evidence to back his claims.

What “trade secrets” does he claim were stolen? Obviously ex-Twitter employees who move to Meta know their tech stack. But there’s not a chance that their codebases are compatible so even if someone directly carried cover over from Twitter to a new job at Meta, it’s not like it would be useful.

And if he thinks current Meta employees are still accessing Twitter IP/code/etc, Elon probably needs to first look internally and maybe not fire entire security & compliance teams.

I use Deemix/Deemon to track hundreds of artists and automatically grab new releases in FLAC from Deezer. It’s slightly manual compared to my *arr stack with its Discord bot, but just a quick copy/paste from Discord/etc into a command.

Personally I have a Deezer Hi-Fi sub to get the flac’s, not sure if their API is still wide open for MP3s or not. It used to be open for anything without a paid account.

The LemmyImporter repo expects you to already have all your post data in a json file- it has a link in the readme to a Lemmygrad.ml comment with a Python script. Seems like it would do exactly what I want, if Pushshift was working. I may be able to fiddle with it enough over the weekend to hit Reddit directly, though.

Yeah that’s definitely what I want, anything cloned over here would ideally have both author attribution and a direct link to the original Reddit post at the very top of each post.

Doesn’t bother me if subreddits don’t want to protest. The whole point of an online community is that you can have groups with different opinions, needs, etc. Nobody is forcing them to go dark.

I’ve been running on All - New to get a feed of everything currently indexed on my instance. Active seems to be moving pretty slowly, so I probably need to go index a bunch more communities.

The infinitely rotating button happens if their email settings are invalid- just discovered that on my instance. I have mine set to open but require email validation and everything seems to happen instantly, but if they require admin verification it may be bugging out and not telling you.

Search is the one thing Lemmy needs to focus on right away, current search sucks and will run off lots of Reddit refugees their first day.

As of right now, a user in your instance has to search and/or sub to a community from another instance before it gets indexed. You could make some dummy account and sub to hundreds of remote communities so they’re locally indexed without having to sub to them on your main account, but that’s pretty time consuming and still not a great solution.

Hopefully many of these wind up staying private longer, 2 days isn’t going to convince reddit admins of anything. The real shift will come when large subreddits start actively pushing their users to Lemmy or Mastodon or wherever else, nothing happens till users leave en masse.

I think you’d need to get in contact with the instance admins, ownership can be transferred to users on a different server, but only by a current mod. If the community is inactive it might be easier to just make a new one.
