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.
Decided to dip my toes in so I followed the guide to a website where I can download some content via google drive. Like an idiot, I didn’t research the risks of direct downloads before and so I’m now a bit paranoid. I understand the chances are low and my media player needs to be exploited but is there a way to be certain? A...

I’m a little dumb and late to this so please forgive me if this is not a good question, but can you not develop an app under a pseudonym or any other way to protect your identity or was this like they tracked each dev down, got their info and legally threatened them?
Edit: I’m referring to Tachiyomi I forgot to mention that
Hi, I seek your help once again. I’m in the need of upgrading my storage now and I found what I consider to be a good deal via Amazon on an older gen enterprise WD drive that supposedly hasn’t been used, but I’ll let the power on hours tell me the truth. The price is about 16usd/TB and I’m wondering if this is a bad idea...
Might be stupid to ask but how would you go about weeding out the bad sellers from the good ones when it comes to hard drives? Especially on secondhand markets like eBay and amazon
Did decide to go the used drive route just saving up and waiting for the right deal from a good seller. I did notice on eBay specifically that some sellers have tested drives for a great price per tb with a shit seller’s warranty (30 days to 1 year) but offer insurance for a significantly longer length of time for a few more...
Really appreciate it they actually also have an eBay store which I’ve been stalking religiously I’m just waiting for a lower capacity drive, 8-10tb is my realistic sweet spot. In the meantime I’m just browsing and looking at other well known sellers.
You reassured me thank you. Was straight up looking at 10tb hgst drives but was hesitant. I’ll still check out other drives that have manufacturer warranties on them but its nice to know I can fall back on my old plan if I don’t find a good deal.
Hey long shot but I did end up buying one with a year of manufacturer warranty still available and was wondering if you went through the process of getting a replacement from WD (the manufacturer of my drive) that was brought from eBay? I made a new post but couldn’t get answers and I just got a couple of questions.
Well I went with your guy’s advice and got me a drive that still has a year of manufacturer warranty on top of the eBay 1 year warranty, but a bit of a sketch seller ngl. The drive itself seems legit visually with matching serial numbers, but womp womp it doesn’t work. At least it fails to initalize, data error (cyclic...
Yeah I’m guessing this is the easiest option to just get my money back. Appreciate it and I’ll update the post with what I go with. I already have another drive that I tested and works so I’m not desperate for now.
Honestly I have no clue. My train of thought was if you could register it, which I havent tested, then the warranty could work. Was kinda hoping someone here or in the original post went through my situation and could clairfy things.
I know the majority opinion is not to do it for various reasons, but basically I started to backup the majority of my dvd collection that I created over the years since I have the time and they were just collecting dust. Turns out though I guess I’m doing it “wrong” or at least not in the original quality since I used...
Thank you I’ll compare them and yeah its just for watching I’m no video expert haha. Talking to a guy who used to watch episodes of anime on youtube that were split up into 16 different part in spanish at 240p.
Holy jesus 1800 discs and god I hope you or someone else finds it. I might have to just grow a pair and research how to download safely because I still have my blu ray collection to go through too
Does anyone else harvest the magnets and platters from old drives as a monument to selfhosting history? (lemmy.world)
