archomrade, in YouTube tests disabling videos for people using ad blockers

The one thing the Reddit exodus has taught me, is that I’m almost eager for a reason to ditch my social media and either find something new or simply take back that time and do something more fulfilling anyway.

I’m so much happier not being constantly blasted with advertisements, that now when I have to go back on insta or FB for whatever reason, I can’t stand more than 30 seconds before I nope back off.

Looking forward to axing YouTube from my life next.

What absolute wankers! In case anyone’s adblock goes south, here are some YouTube alternatives:

For Watching YouTube

For Uploading

  • PeerTube
  • Idk, make a video blog or something.
cjerrington, in Which port to run Wireguard on
@cjerrington@kbin.social avatar

Changing ports isn’t a terrible thing, also not the perfect “fix” either, as you can still recognize open ports and scan the service on them.

Some ports are reserved in networking, so should stay away from those.

Some ISPs don’t allow you open ports on 80/443 as those are web hosting ports and they provide a service to consumers to download content from the internet, not for their consumer to be a web hosting provider as well. That’s at the residential level, if you have a business plan that might change, but it might be hard to convince and ISP otherwise.

hburb3ri, in Good VPS providers providing anonymity

They are called bulletproof hosting and are illegal. They get shut down pretty quick for obvious reasons. You won’t find any reputable ones for a reason, because they don’t want to be hosting illegal content like CP. They also get their IPs blacklisted and automatically marked as spam/suspicious/phishing. It’s just a bad idea.

You can have private hosting and not anonymous hosting, they are not the same. Just try to go for one in the EU for the most privacy friendly laws.

Using it and I love it! Can definitely recommend it!

I love Logseq! When I first started using it, I was categorizing all my notes as I was slowly moving over my knowledge base. And over time, I’ve switched over to using the Journal more and more! It’s extremely well done.

This looks intriguing! I currently use BookStack as a documentation platform, but it seems Logseq might be a step above something like BookStack?

Wander, in Is Kbin private? and how private is compared to Lemmy?
@Wander@yiffit.net avatar

Nothing on the fediverse is truly private. Treat everything you say as public and as permanent.

I had no idea such a thing existed, thanks for posting! I currently use Notion at work, which is similar, but this looks promising for home use.

i’d never heard of this concept! i have a disorganized stack of markdown files - notes, to-do and packing lists - that this looks ideal to tame

Recollectr, in Logseq: A privacy-first, open-source platform for knowledge management.

Another alternative, admittedly not open-source, is Recollectr (disclaimer: built by me.)

Recollectr was inspired by prior projects like Notational Velocity but aims to be a lot more - omnibox, markdown support, reminders; and for paid users: revisions, note-linking, and sync. I built it because I felt like other note-taking apps just weren't fast enough and they broke my concentration.

It's quite late here but I'd be happy to answer any questions tomorrow!

Helvedeshunden,

I was just checking out the site on my iPad. Only the top image loads and the rest are white boxes. I disabled all content blockers and reloaded but the problem persisted. It might still be a local problem, but now you have a heads-up that something MIGHT be wrong.

Recollectr,

Thanks very much for letting me know; I'll look into this! They're all videos so perhaps there's some encoding issue with Safari on iOS.

Love Logseq for a lot of reasons, but their PDF annotator is really a gamechanger. I can open a PDF, mark it up, copy the highlighted reference to my notes, and then when I review my notes just by clicking the copied reference I can jump to that section of the PDF. Awesome.

Thanks for this friend

bionicjoey, in Thoughts on this Reddit post claiming 'Lemmy doesn't care about privacy'?

If you post something on the internet, there should be no expectation that it won’t be preserved for an arbitrary length of time. Same as how you can’t legally claim that you expect privacy while in public

DidacticDumbass,

This. Everyone needs to be mindful about what they post. You are communicating with real human beings afterall, with their own life history and memory.

So be kind and give up the fantasy you can reverse your actions.
