Agreed, and this is what I have set up for mine… But this is also technologically so far out of reach for >95% of people…

Yeah, there’s tonnes of good content on there, but as you allude to, there’s even more shitty or zero effort content… And the algorithm has a way of serving up absolute trash. And the parental controls are pretty much non existent…

Youtube happily serves up videos to an 8 year old (on a supervised children’s account) that contain topics like abuse, sex, racism, horror, radical religious indoctrination, Chinese propaganda, and human centipede… This isn’t as rampant in the YouTube Kids app… But at least half the stuff on YouTube Kids is ASMR content or unboxing “surprise” toys…

YouTube allows you to block channels, but will happily continue serving the 9000 other accounts that simply reupload the same exact videos.

Open-source EVs are a bit like Gentoo, you have to build it yourself.

Awesome to hear, and good luck with it!

I just want to mention that there is a lot of configuration options in Tree Style Tab, so if it doesn’t behave exactly how you want it to, there’s a high likelihood that you just need to tweak the settings a bit.

Fair, that is pretty awesome feature, especially for the tab sprawl in this day and age.

I (obviously) use Firefox, and I had the same problem, and found the “Tree Style Tab” extension solves the same problem for me, however it does it in a very different way.

Instead of having your tabs along the top of the window, your tabs are kept in a sidebar, and vertically. Opening new tabs from an already open page makes the new tabs nest under the original tab. You can collapse and expand whole trees of tabs, and move them around should you need to.

It also integrates nicely with the “Container Tabs” putting a colored band next to the tabs belonging to each container.

The tabs being vertical also means that you can always read the titles of the tabs, they don’t get “squished”.

It does cost a chunk of screen real estate, but for me the organization is worth it.

BTW: The extension doesn’t itself hide the tabbar at the top of the window, but that can be hidden with a relatively easy modification to a file.

What is Firefox lacking for you to love it?

Because there’s no such thing as private address spaces in IPv6.

If your ISP is IPv6 only, then you need to enable IPv6 for your local network too, which means that every device on your network gets an IPv6 address.

You can still have a private IPv4 as well, but if your remove the IPv6 support, then you lose access too the Internet.

Yeah, definition of “legitimate interest” is definitely being stretched well beyond it’s breaking point.

And it actually is… Quote from the GDPR:

It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent.

Ah, you’re on Windows, I completely missed that from your original post… Then it makes complete sense.

Can I ask why you say that Docker is “too much”?

Docker generally simplifies the installation and deployment of very many applications, and makes upgrades of the apps extremely easy.

And it has an extremely low overhead…

This is exactly why I run Linux on all my computers, and run as much open-source software as I can, build my own home server, and set up my own home-automation. It does have a time cost, over convenience, but being able to tailor everything to my needs and wants is a wonderful feeling.

But yes, it would be wonderful if this was a more common mentality in software in general. Especially on mobile devices.

Podcast Addict is not quite as streamlined, but has many more features.

My favorite feature is the “Automatic Rewind” combined with “Incremental rewind”. It adds a rewind everytime you pause and resume an episode that increases the longer the podcast has been paused. It means that if I briefly pause, for example to respond to. Some one in real life talking to me, then it will automatically rewind 5 seconds when I start the podcast again, so I can hear the sentence I was in the middle of in full. But if I leave a podcast alone for a week, then it will rewind 1 minute so I can get fully back into the context of what I was listening to.
