No they not, in EU people where using VPNs (probably free, with more tracking) to use Threads.
When USA tried to block TikTok, people started to use free VPNs to continue using TikTok.
Mostly are unaware or don’t understand, other just don’t care they “have nothing to hide”
The developer
The app is still using the dev API token, the dev didn’t revoke the token and created a new one for the API changes.
If it’s abandoned the app will continue to work.
Ah yes the Samsung and their bloatware.
On S23 is almost 60GB https://www.neowin.net/news/heres-the-apparent-truth-behind-the-60gb-android-os-on-galaxy-s23/
That’s why when a look for a phone, always research if there’s custom ROMs for it, AOSP based.
I control what’s on the phone, not otherwise
It’s only for Pixel phones
Same but I use Syncthing instead
I’m an old age redditor, and that was may reddiquette, “don’t downvote just because you don’t like the topic, maybe other people find it interesting”.
Mostly I don’t downvote at all, only on some rude or spam posts.
Reddit just become something where everyone downvote everything for no reason, even if just say “OK” ou “that’s cool”!
On Lemmy (ate least for now), not so much or I don’t see it.
If you see a post “orange is the best color”, don’t downvote just because you don’t like orange, leave a comment and express your opinion instead
PS: There’s an old Reddiquette song, the same can be applied to fediverse

Setup some RSS bots to auto-post news on your instance.
So they work with user keys but not with developer keys!
If you try RedReader, which is official supported by Reddit for accessibility you can’t see NSFW subs
You can see NSFW posts on non-NSFW subreddits, but not NSFW subreddits.
You can with Stealth https://gitlab.com/cosmosapps/stealth
So, just another normal day in US
Depending of your instance, see the local communities, you should have some for “community request” or meta, look for the description of the communities.
You can also request on other instance, doesn’t need to be on your instance. Some can be more restrict then others.
There’s also theme specific instances, like Star Trek, Path of Exile, FOSS… each instance can have his own rules.
If it converts every video in realtime it will require a lot of CPU per server, it’s cheaper to store multiple copies. Also the average video isn’t more than some 300MB, less if it’s lower quality.
Anyone with Plex or Jellyfin knows that it’s better to have the same movie in both qualities (1080,720) the transconding to avoid CPU usage.
It’s possible to have fast transconding with GPUs, but with high so many users on youtube that will require a lots of power and high energy prices, store is cheaper.
Not only that but for each video on YouTube there are different versions for each resolution. So if you upload a 1080p video, it gets converted to 1080p AVC/VP9, 720p AVC/VP9, 480p… also for the audio.
If you run youtube-dl -F <youtube url> you will see different formats.
Don’t know about Google (don’t use it) but already found some search results on Brave or Duckduckgo, without search operators (site:…)
And having multiple instances with specific theme (country, TV show, games) also engages people to post and comment more.
It’s like talking to people on your neighborhood while Reddit is nation wide and everything is seeking attention
Hosting videos requires a lot of storage, before reddit hosting images/videos most used services where imgur, streamable, gifycat…
On small instances hosting videos could be an issue with storage and bandwidth, hosting externally is always a best option
Teddit, Libreddit and Stealth are scrappers, you can look ate nsfw subreddits
Teddit uses his own “Unoffical API”
Unofficial API (RSS & JSON support, no rate limits or Reddit account required)
Libreddit there are some issues about it
