I jump between a lot of profiles for work and chrome makes that too easy. It’s the only thing holding me back from switching to Firefox.

Fast Profile switching? I’m downloading this immediately when I get home.

I was pleasantly surprised that my Sony tv has a basic option so you can use it just as a screen. All smart stuff disabled.

Sideloading apps on iOS has gotten a lot easier. I use sideloadly. It has to connect to your computer (wirelessly) once a week but does this automatically in the background. I’m still running Apollo, the best Reddit iOS app this way.

I have YT premium through Sri Lanka for $3/mo. Sponsorblock works in safari.

ROM apps like delta are in the App Store now. I have no idea about phone gaming otherwise.

Never ran into any content filtering.

If your gf uses iOS try it out there first and see how you like it.

New iPhones release on a pretty strict schedule each September so even if you don’t want the new model best to wait for older ones to be discounted.

Got the fork of prowlarr you recommended up and running but getting a timeout on adding ABB. Will try again later. For now, it is working in jackett again so that is a good temp solution. I will ideally have both running so there is a backup if one goes down later.

Deleting and readding it worked!

It seems ABB asked prowlarr not to use its api.

MAM = myanonymouse

Stopped working for me. I’ll delete and readd when back home.

 

I found some old threads but nothing I could get working today. My automated readarr setup would greatly benefit from ABB access. Which I used to have not long ago but now seems to be blocked. Not everything is on MAM, unfortunately.

They just blocked a few of the main ones. I was able to sign up from Sri Lanka last week for ~$4/mo family plan. Might meet more investigating to see where works.

This will be an unpopular answer but I use Nordvpn mainly because during Black Friday sales you can get it essentially for free using a cash back portal. The start of the sale last year, which I missed, was offering over 100% cash back. They’d pay you to use it!

Others are better but if the level of protection you’re looking for is “Comcast stop sending me piracy warnings” this’ll work.

It does seem unlikely Plex would include this ever. Hate their generic pivot to ad supported bs. But as a lifetime sub to Plex I’m riding it down.

I hear jellyfin supports plugins which is one step easier.

At home I watch on an Apple TV with a nas running isponsorblock. Works well but is a single device/location solution. And I am still paying for YouTube premium.

Interesting. Just need it to work on a server with an interface as effortless as sonarr.

 

One of my favorite Apollo features was I could be in the middle of a deep comment section. Swipe back to the homepage, then swipe over into where I left off in the comments. I believe this was handled by edge swipes vs swipes from not quite the edge for up/down votes. No idea how it remembered location.

Love the app! Really made the transition to Lemmy much easier.

 

This weekend we got the conclusion to The Venture Bros. One of my favorite shows that’s stuck around for years even if seasons were released sporadically. Loved the movie. It closes enough plot threads without overdoing it. Lots of good character moments.

Anyone else watch this? What did you think?

 

As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this doesn't yet exist. Anyone else extremely interested in something that skips/removes sponsor segments from podcasts?
