No worries! Also from Friendica
Ce să vă zic, mă, bine ați venit? bine ați venit, rău ați nimerit. La locu’ ăsta îi zice șerpărie, de la șerpii care umblă pe-aicea. Dracu’ știe cum au ajuns…
No worries! Also from Friendica
I think this means allowing the listing of third party app stores inside the Google Play Store - so you could search for F-Droid in Google Play for example instead of downloading and installing the .apk
manually.
Is that a job posting about AI written by ChatGPT?
@Ilandar you’re right, I didn’t think about this. However I might add that there are still programs that do not function well even under Wine. For example, the latest version of Office is always problematic to set up.
@Ilandar this is a good solution . Another would be to just not jump ship head first, but rather replace everything wth FOSS alternatives instead if they’re not available on Linux (e.g.: replace MS Office with LibreOffice, Photoshop with GIMP or something else, etc.) and use them for a while. Most of the programs should also be available for Windows, and if not you could also use WSL to run them.
Once you get used to these programs, the actual Linux transition should be easier.
Didn’t they do that before with the Windows 10 timeline, which they later axed it off?
@funn Online content is, sadly, more vulnerable than we think. All it takes is one server to go down, and the entire website/thing goes bust.
search results will become secondary as they push their service
Oh, so they’re gonna emphasize less on search results and more onto their half-arsed services that they’re axing from time to time? This is so Google of them.

@perishthethought thank you!
@perishthethought I see. So the feeds from the OPML file are imported into the reader’s own database, right?
@GadgeteerZA Oh, I see. Thanks for the extra info! 😁
@GadgeteerZA it’s not really that new, it’s been around for as long as Mastodon got the first boost back in Autumn 2022 (at least that’s when I first heard about it, something like that). There’s plenty of other microblogging servers out there, as microblogging is overwhelmingly served via AP and not only. There’s even a Nextcloud app for that.
Check out the list below and sort by Social network (micro):
fediverse.party/en/miscellaneo…
@k110111 The Fediverse is more than just Mastodon. Don’t be shy of trying out other social networks as well, as they have a pretty good compatibility with Mastodon.
I just wanted to get rid of Facebook. So, I don’t know what did I think about, but I chose Friendica. From here I managed to follow many of the pages that I was following there, over on Mastodon.
News pages have the biggest share in the accounts that I follow, but I also found other accounts, such as @godpod or @DarthPutinKGB
@Obi /c/s is not long (albeit a bit complicated to write, on phone at least) and it could easily be expanded verbally, so you know that /c/s = communities
.
On Friendica, everything that is not a person or a page is displayed as a group. As a Facebook alternative, it does make sense, but for you in the Lemmy world I imagine it would sound a bit bland. 😁
Sci-Hub should still be around, I guess…
@rikudou That’s great. Didn’t think about it.
@Riccardo_Mar It depends on the crack I guess, but most likely yes. The crack is usually there only to bypass license check.
@Moonrise2473 even worse: they’re selling copyrighted content that they have no license for
@Protoman64 Kbin has a separate interface for microblogging and groups, that’s why it’s not that obvious. For Lemmy, well, there’s no type of blogging to begin with.
Friendica really shines in this regard, as it has the ability to interact with both groups and regular people in the same feed, while the posts are also clearly marked as such. 😁
