I was one of those old purchasers. There was a huge uproar on the subreddit back in the day cause they said everyone who purchased the app before the subscription model would only get like 1 or 2 years of subscription access instead of lifetime. People got so pissed they changed it to lifetime.
I purchased pocketcasts years ago when it was a one time fee and when they moved to a subscription model they gave everyone who purchased a lifetime pass on the subscription model but that rubbed me so wrong I moved away from it. Currently I run Audiobookshelf on my server and have all my podcasts in a library on there. Works really well and I have control over it.
I myself switched to Audiobookshelf. I initially set it up for my wife to have her audio books while traveling but I found it does podcasts and normal epub books really well also.
Invasion isn’t a bad show but ignoring the fact that See, Silo, Severance, Slow Horses, Foundation, For All Mankind, and most other shows on Apple TV exist is just dumb. Ted Lasso was mid after season 1 imo but Apple TV has an unmatched quality level with most of their library. I dislike Apple but they’ve been making banger after banger compared to every other streaming service and I hope Monarch is just as good as everything else.
I’ve said this before and I think it needs repeating. Filoni is making better stuff than Disney did, and besides, the originals weren’t as good as nostalgia thinks they are. Filoni’s stuff is on par with the originals and like the originals its a great time for families and kids.
I saw that once a while ago on reddit. If you’re pirating you should be hosting it on jellyfin or something then you’ll never even have a chance of Microsoft seeing your data.
Mobilism has been a go to for me. Someone recommended it here a while back. Its far from perfect but I only grab an audio book maybe a few times a year so it works for me.
Is there any good sites for audiobooks that aren’t behind private trackers? I have a great set up with normal ebooks but my wife’s job has here driving for multiple hours a day so she wants audiobooks and I can’t seem to find any consistent sites.
Given what you’ve got running I only really recommend, as other have, portainer. It’s made my life so much easier. Edited this since I saw you have homarr and I must’ve missed it the first time.
For a few years now, I’ve been using and paying for Deezer, but recently they’ve started to do away with the features that I preferred about their platform, so I’m wondering of there is any options for me here.
I have transmission running on my server in a docker container that is supposed to go through gluetun. If I run test with ipleak and other torrent ip testers it shows my vpn’s ip address. However transmission is running way faster download speeds than deluge or qbit were with the same configuration. It makes me wonder if all...
So this worked and I was unable to use transmission without gluetun connecting properly. Is it normal for some clients to just be faster with the same torrents? Like about was at like 1-2mib and transmission with the same torrent is running at 4-5.
What do you mean? I watched dunkey’s weird video and I still don’t understand. Hoopla is digital content from library’s, free and available for anyone. I’m confused as to this standpoint you have.
There’s “no convincing scientific evidence” behind the extraordinary claims that the ancient human relative Homo naledi deliberately buried their dead and engraved rocks deep in a South African cave around 300,000 years ago, a group of archaeologists argues in a new commentary....
This shouldn’t surprise anyone considering they gave Grahan Hancock a whole fuckin series of bullshit. Netflix’s “documentaries” have been jokes for a few years now.
Does anyone that pays for proton also use it with a SO? We’ve been looking to pay for it but the family plan looks like an overkill for us. The viable alternative is paying for the Mail Plus plan for each of us but we are a bit worried that we won’t be able to share calendars....
I share with my wife and just got the family plan. It’s overkill probably but it makes it simpler and I don’t have to think about 2 separate subscriptions.
Apps that shouldn't be Subscriptions
What is the most useless app that you have seen being given as a subscription?...
Go watch Invasion if you don't believe me (lemmy.world)

Does the idea of this concern anyone else? Why is no one talking about it? (sh.itjust.works)
What is the best distro for gaming?
I know gaming has gotten a lot better on Linux and I’m working on a new PC and I’m wondering which distro to try.

Where can I find audiobooks?
Looking for a way to get audiobooks to listen to. Preferably in a format compatible with Apple Books app.
Are there any good privacy friendly keyboards for android?
I’ve looked at a few on fdroid and they all seem like they aren’t being maintained anymore....
AudioBook sites?
Is there any good sites for audiobooks that aren’t behind private trackers? I have a great set up with normal ebooks but my wife’s job has here driving for multiple hours a day so she wants audiobooks and I can’t seem to find any consistent sites.

Is there a program I can use to download and browse music, similar to Spotify?
For a few years now, I’ve been using and paying for Deezer, but recently they’ve started to do away with the features that I preferred about their platform, so I’m wondering of there is any options for me here.

Proton plan as a couple (Family or Individual?)
