I want to be able to type yt-dlp [url] and have it automatically use --sponsorblock-remove CATS to remove sponsored section from the download file without having to type --sponsorblock-remove CATS everytime. Is this possible within yt-dlp?...
This is probably a ridiculous question, but I usually stream from my laptop to my LG tv or my phone to any other tv, and I find that using my VPN keeps the casting output option from working. Like in Popcorntime, the Watch Now doesn’t show my tv, only the laptop app or VLC. On my daughter’s fire stick I can’t even cast to...
I’m still trying to de-Google my life, little by little. I don’t trust Bing for similar reasons. DDG is feeling shady of late. What’s the search engine you all recommend that I can inject into my daily life? Is there perhaps a search engine that is focused on code, or have we just all moved on to AI for searching?...
I have noticed that sometimes when browsing image searches on Google (android phone) it will make a swoosh animation across a part of clothing. I made a short clip to demonstrate. I used Arnold, because Arnold, but seems to happen mostly on famous people...
This allows something like “computer show me every citizen that has posted negative comments towards the current mayor, order it by the amount of comments theyve posted, cite where they work, who their parents are, what people does there phone gps spend the most time around, and include any cctv and amazon ring footage that detects their face using facial recognition, create a separate folder of footage from any bar and club they’ve been to, search every nsfw website/subreddit/onlyfans for footage of them.”
And now you have a neatly organized collection of all the people that oppose the mayor with potential blackmail and who to send it to one by one until your demands of only praising the great cop mayor is met (as an example)

What phone do you hve? What computer? What shoes? What milk do you buy? Ads dont work by showing up and making you go buy it like a drone. You see the ads a thousand times and then you start believing its better than other products

This might be a limitation of Lemmy or voyager, but is there some option for me to “watch” or “subscribe” to a post and be notified of new comments?...
This is my most wanted feature but sadly it’s not a thing yet. Maybe until lemmy introduces it, apps can implement rss since rss works on threads out of the box iirc
Theres been a lot of really amazing looking animated films by indie studios in china but sadly some of them are exclusively available to chinese viewers via geoblocking. Anyone here able to download and share them?...
Out of the box it can play audio in the background, and now that extensions are available you can block ads as well. You don’t really need constantly updating 3rd party clients or questionable firewalls anymore if you just want usable youtube on a phone.
Youtube comments are historically terrible so this Reddit comment for YouTube is a great extension to never have to read YouTube comments. I no longer use Reddit though and would love to have a similar extension using Lemmy comments that also work on piped/invidious and maybe be compatible with any website/link...
When you’re on YouTube/piped it automatically embeds the comments under the description. I think it’s obvious why that’s better than manually searching all of lemmy for each thread that has the same link
Its not working on a project “for me” or “for nothing” its for the lemmy/fediverse community as a whole. Like every other lemmy open source extension, most clients, lemmy itself.
It says piracy not privacy. But also, we have privacy communities on lemmy which is fully indexed by google and all search engines making it technically less private than discord?
