I use Linkding too, it’s very light and it’s great, I only wish it had the exclude tag filter and no tag filter. That would make it perfect.

Just a smoother and faster experience. No dead links, no slow downloads, no files that are separated into multiple parts…
You get a VPN and you don’t have to worry about “getting caught”. Private trackers just further elevate that experience and get you access to better content.

I’d lose that one day after buying it.

What are those?

I finally made a full switch from Sync to Thunder, because even though I know that Sync dev does take huge breaks and he comes back and fixes everything and makes the app even better, I still wanted to make sure I find a good alternative and get familiar with it just in case.

Thunder is a really good app, especially considering its age. It also has the most features and the nicest UI (IMO) among the Lemmy apps. And it being open source is a huge plus too.

Sync is still my favorite, it just feels really nice to use, but I’ll stay on Thunder for now.

Voyager is also a really nice app that feels polished and works smoothly, but it’s lacking certain features that I like. So I keep it installed as a backup but I don’t use it often.

I kinda started using lemmy less lately. I shall fix that!

What does FUTO use? It works pretty good (based on my limited testing) and it works offline.

It’s one guy posting all of those xD

Did you maybe miss the linked article? :D

Most mobile apps can, and on desktop I found these 2 methods that I mentioned in the comments here. Maybe you find it useful.

Well I don’t use either of those platforms, I was just curious. I just shared what I observed, I guess it does sound like a complaint.
Mostly disappointed that there even is a need for such a thing.

So all 3 people on the whole bluesky who even know they can do that or give any fuck about mastodon.

So you can’t interact at all, or see bluesky comments or anything. It’s basically as if you subscribed to an RSS feed. Pretty useless no?

Never really understood the appeal of twitter-like platforms anyway.

They allegedly remove posts/comments about lemmy? And even if they don’t, I feel like it could have the opposite effect. People would see those posts just like ads/promotion/spam. Which would give lemmy a bad rep. Unless something big happens, like some big community switching to lemmy, or someone with a big following promotes lemmy, it will hardly see a big spike in user count.

The only way is to passively “advertise” it. Maybe add the link to your lemmy account in your reddits about you section, if you are making OC add your lemmy handle there as well…

And the last way, which is most likely the best way to do it, is to post good content on lemmy, keep communities alive. And people will eventually join.

FeedMe works as well.

What is even the point of “piracy groups”? What exactly can you find there that you cannot in other places designed for that, e.g., trackers, usenet, forums…?

But shows different numbers.

I can find it on Droidify no problem and after reading your comment, I also tried on F-droid app and I can see it there as well. Maybe you don’t have it configured properly.
