For games, have you tried Lutris and Bottles? These tools make it an absolute breeze to setup the games outside of Steam.

Ladies and gentleman, this is why competition is desperately needed. It's only going to continue downhill from here...

JSens1998 ,

Yes, and that's where the issues lie. It will never get better because there is no competition to force Google to improve and they know that. Therefore, free reign.

Huh? Nova was bought out?

I know this thread is kind of old, but what about Download Navi?

Zuckerberg Brags About How Your Facebook, Instagram Posts Will Power His AI ( gizmodo.com )

Instagram and Facebook have addicted users for the last 20 years, making sure to monetize us through advertisers every step of the way. Now, they’re revisiting your old posts, your special moments, and your big life updates, and using it to create billion-dollar AI tools. Zuckerberg’s braggadocious claim about Meta’s very...

Hard for old Zuck to use my data to train his garbage products when I've never provided that data to begin with. 1 for me, 0 for the zuck.

JSens1998 ,

Ha, I suppose that's true. Damn you Zuck and the other data harvesters!

Bro, I’ll literally be having a conversation with someone about a topic, and all of the sudden Google starts recommending me products related to the discussion afterwards. Smart phones and smart speakers without a doubt listen in on our conversations. There’s the evidence.

JSens1998 ,

Yeah, GMail literally pisses me off for that exact reason.

Download the ProtonMail apk from a trusted place such as APKMirror, and then use Revanced Manager to change the package name. Install the patched app and profit! You can do this over and over again.

Good detection, and I appreciated the free trial.

But, I don’t think I’d use it enough to warrent paying on it monthly. I did however find an app called Audire that is open-source, uses the API of Shazam, and is also free. Works very well.

All you need to know is its a proposal by Google for a new web standard. Enough said.

what youtube is doing is a slow easing of removing adblockers rather than an immediate one

if they outright forced us to stop day one there’d be outrage, so they instead ease us in. first a popup, then a timed popup, slowly leading to their actual goal but without the risk of an initial outrage. i know this is an extreme comparison but we’re like lambs to a slaughter

I started getting the popups recently. Tried blocking the elements with uBlock, but in turn it would pause the video 2 seconds in. Pretty annoying. So I said screw it and installed an extension that would redirect the youtube watch page to an Invidious instance. Might as well make the transition now before they completely block adblockers for good. Screw Google!

Tampermonkey along with this userscript. Works a charm!

JSens1998 ,

Dang, had no idea this existed. Thanks!

JSens1998 ,

Indeed. They are starting to piss me off with all their BS.

JSens1998 ,

I also love me some drop down terminals!

I personally use Tilda… because it allows me to drop it down using just the ` key, and the background transparency actually works (unlike Yakuake) on my distro.

JSens1998 ,

My favorite is Tilda, (drop down terminal) and my second favorite would be good ol’ Konsole.

JSens1998 ,

Ayyeee, it’s great to see another Tilda user!

JSens1998 ,

Damn. That’s actually a good idea! +1
