haroldstork, in Statement regarding the ongoing SourceHut outage

It seems like a lot of open source projects are getting DDoSed right now.

TxzK, in [NEWS] Kakao is now going after everyone involved in Tachiyomi

Lol what coincidence. I was just updating Tachiyomi

Fuck this channel.

Robboman93, in Looking for Notes App for Android & Linux

You could try Notesnoot, it’s very good and open-source.

This goes for inter-developer communication too. Be nice to one another. Someone just wants to help sometimes.

const_void, in ListenBrainz - Track and share the music you listen to

Strawberry has built-in support for ListenBrainz.

Signfeld, in ListenBrainz - Track and share the music you listen to

For any client that does not support ListenBrainz but does support Last.FM you can use multi-scrobbler to chain off of it. github.com/FoxxMD/multi-scrobbler

How does Kayak get my personal information via a search link from Organic Maps?

mp3,
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

I suppose by accessing the website and using the Kayak platform? Seems like an overblown reaction to a link…

KLISHDFSDF, (edited )
@KLISHDFSDF@lemmy.ml avatar

Significantly overblown. Most of the opened github issues were by the same person. Seems someone doesn’t like it and is trying to spam the issue and frame it as a bigger deal than it really is.

OP seems to be on a crusade, cross-posting this to 4 lemmy communities.

Anyway, this: github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/issues/6773#is…

As Jean said, it will have a setting to toggle the Kayak integration and it will be opt-in (disabled by default) to avoid an Anti-Feature on F-Droid.

Literally their only content, not even a comment.

This is an axe-grind of some sort.

Gooey0210,

The plot twist will be when you find out that this account is actually one of the devs of organic maps

Don’t use it but hope it gets the revanced/ cloudstream treatment and survives in another form.

Chewy7324, (edited ) in It's joever. Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed.

It’s sad to see companies threatening completely legal projects, knowing that the volunteering developers don’t have the time and money to win a lawsuit against a large company with lawyers. It’s nothing less than bullying volunteers, or similar to SLAPP suits.

Edit: typo

wiki_me,

GNOME once fought off a patent lawsuit, Maybe they could have partnered with a non profit related to FOSS that could have done the “heavy lifting”.

blackfire, in It's joever. Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed.

Its a damnshame but totally understandable. Surprised it went on so long

RandomLegend,
@RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Why would it be understandable?

Tachiyomi was 100% legal

blackfire,

It exists in the same category as pop corn time and Kodi. Sure its legal but to make it do illegal things is so easy it might as well be illegal itself from the start.

optissima,

Time to ban cars, guns, knives, screwdrivers…

Melonpoly,

I agree with the first two

Halosheep,

My fists are pretty easy to make do illegal things too. Maybe we should start cutting off people’s hands, just in case. You never know when someone might use a finger to click a PIRACY button.

junezephier, (edited ) in It's joever. Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed.

unfortunate to see, it’s been a great app for a long time. Anyone know of an alternative that’s good? I mostly just read on mobile through firefox on mangafire now, but would love if an app offered a better experience

A long time contributor of Tachiyomi plans to continue the work under a new name ‘Mihon’. Reddit post

Mannivu,

There are forks (I use TachiJ2K) but who knows what their future will be.

simple, in It's joever. Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed.

This sucks. Tachiyomi was by far the best app for reading comics, none of the paid options come even close in terms of options or ease of use.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

It’s not like it’ll stop working for local files.

You could still get the actual comics anywhere, convert em to .cbz, and chuck em in some folders named by series. In that sense, Tachiyomi should keep working forever.

It’s really only the streamlined online sources that’ll break over time, and no new features will get added.

Lucky for us, looks like it’ll be getting forked and live on as “Mihon”.

TWeaK,

So does Tachiyomi also provide the external sources? My impression was they just did the app, and you got things from elsewhere, but I’ve never used it (or even heard of it before today).

It’s also already got 3 forks, they link them on their website.

ipha,

So does Tachiyomi also provide the external sources?

No, tachiyomi is just a browser for other sites.

MentalEdge, (edited )
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

Tachiyomi is just a comic reader, but it can aggregate from A LOT of sources, both local files and websites. Each online source (mangadex, tapas) requires a plug-in to work. Those plugins need maintenance and workarounds for stuff like cloudflare blocks.

Needless to say a lot of content hosts aren’t fans of a client that pulls content without the user ever seeing an ad or something, so these plug-ins tend to break.

rwhitisissle,

There’s a number of existing forks already. Most of them for porn. For the ones that have integrated with the last Tachiyomi update that removed native extensions, what you’ll be able to do is set a repository as an upstream apk source for whatever extensions you want. There’s plenty of those already on github. You just have to look for them.

Blackmist,

Yeah, as somebody with an ever growing pile of apps that stop working every time I upgrade my phone, I wouldn’t count on it.

If somebody doesn’t take it over and rebuild for every pointless Android change, it will eventually disappear.

MentalEdge,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

I still have apps that I made to work on android 6, working just fine. Android has extremely good backwards compatibility.

The reason tachiyomis plug-ins would stop working is that the sources they pull content from keep blocking them, and there wouldn’t be anyone to come up with new workarounds.

Android itself hasn’t changed that much unless your app is overly reliant on old app permissions. Which tachiyomi isn’t.

DerisionConsulting, in It's joever. Tachiyomi will no longer be actively developed.

I saw this as Jo-ever, and not J’over.

folkrav, (edited ) in Organic maps which claims to be ad-free was marked by F-Droid as “Containing ads”

It’s literally just a link. They don’t send shit to Kayak unless you decide yourself to click that link. Yes, Kayak could track you. That’s true of most sites they could link to. They also advertise this fact pretty clearly. And as far as I can tell, didn’t they confirm it would be made opt-in?

Total storm in a teacup situation…
