I like seeing more uncommon TLDs be used that aren’t just .com, .org, or .net. Variety’s kinda cool.

The fediverse, while still social media, has a level of authenticity unrivaled by most major social medias in my opinion. Hopefully it stays that way!

This is probably one of the better pieces of news I have heard about ChromeOS, it seems like this could make ChromiumOS easier to support and make Chromebooks less useless.

Maybe he shoulda just stuck with the bird, or thought of a name that is even a tad more creative. I’m pretty sure a hamster or a piece of paper could do a better job at managing Twitter than Muskrat is right now.

It seems to me that recently, Big Tech CEOs have been searching for interesting and creative ways to utterly destroy their company with no chance to rebuild it. Maybe he is trying to do that? At this point, it seems to me like Elon is doing his best diligence to set money on fire and run Twitter into the ground.

Yattee seems to be the best option, but it seems to be an app where your mileage may vary due to it being a beta.

If I remember right there’s an app named Yattee for iOS devices, but I don’t know how to install it. Maybe that could work?

I’ve been using Mullvad DNS (the adblocking variant) on my phone to block ads and I have to say, it works pretty well. I didn’t even know some of my Play apps have ads, it’s that effective.

They got it right: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. No point in spending useless money to upgrade something that already works and where upgrading would be pointless.

I’ve also heard they are decent cars, at this point I’ll just keep driving what I’ve got and hope that in a couple years, more manufacturers will return to making most things controllable by physical buttons.

Same, whenever I tried and use Chrome with another application running, it always slowed down my computer an insane amount. Firefox doesn’t do that, I can actually use multiple programs on my machine with Firefox open.

More reasons to keep using Firefox just keep on coming up like excellent extensions, in-browser PDF editor, and now more speed. I switched to Firefox 2 years ago with uBO and I don’t think I’d ever switch back to Chrome.

That too! I just don’t use it myself because I find NewPipe works well enough for me. However, I should still try it out eventually to see if I’m missing anything big.

If something like the AC, gear switching, volume controls, or another essential function is only usable via the touchscreen, I’d just stop considering that car because it’s unsafe and time consuming to use touchscreens in cars. They’re right, too much tech in cars is very annoying and I think most people (like me) would rather have dedicated physical buttons to control most actions in a car.

I would pay more to get a car with more buttons than you can comprehend and a small little infotainment system that allows you to play music than a super futuristic car with a iPad in the center and nothing else in the center console area.

I’d always use a VPN, you never know what could happen in the future. Better be safe than sorry!

Don’t forget NewPipe for Android, Yattee for Apple devices, SmartTube for most Android TV boxes, Playlet for Roku, and Invidious for PC (if you don’t like Piped).

The only (usable) platform I can think of without a ad-free YouTube client is maybe webOS for LG TVs.

(some of these clients are also missing some features because they are new, but they should all be better for watching than the official app)

NewPipe costs $13.99 less on my phone (where I watch YouTube most), and it has a better UX (for me) than the official app.

There’s even Playlet for Rokus!

NewPipe for the win! Probably one of the best apps I have ever downloaded.
