  • A few of mine :

    • AndOTP : A good app for OTP that actually let’s you backup your keys and move them easily and securely to a new phone
    • Blokada : A system wide adblocker for Android. 4000000 ads blocked so far on my phone
    • YouTube Vanced: Not really a “hidden” gem but a cool app nonetheless. I wish people knew you could get an ad free YouTube experience on mobile. It also includes sponsor block so you really get straight to content. Also let’s you get a YT popup player and shutdown the screen with the video still playing.
    • F-Droid an Android open source app market. Often includes apps that are not allowed on Google market.













  • Perso, je trouve que c’est pas une bonne attitude de se gargariser en disant qu’on est tellement plus mieux ici.

    On est juste au début de l’histoire de Lemmy et c’est pas parce que la société Reddit fait de la merde que la modération ici doit être mieux.

    La modération sera toujours un sujet de controverse quel que soit la plateforme. Et perso le seul moyen d’avoir de la modération de qualité c’est en payant les modérateurs. Ce qui n’est clairement pas possible ici.

    Il va falloir des mois pour que ça se tasse et que le fediverse Lemmy se “consolide” en attendant ça va être controverse après controverse sur la modération et les defederations. Des camps vont se former et des “guerres” d’instances vont se produire.

    Faisons notre truc ici, sans de retourner constamment vers Reddit. On a bien assez de challenges devant nous sur Lemmy. Tout est encore a construire.




  • I was eager to try out Liftoff but unfortunately I can’t seem to log in on it :/

    I noticed my password contains a space in the middle and I always get an “invalid password” error.

    I didn’t try yet to change the password and try again but I suspect the password field when you login might not like a space in it.

    In any case, if I can check if the password is really the issue, I will try to create a proper bug report on the git repository or something.

    Thanks for the hard work ! It makes me happy to see devs embracing Lemmy and trying to make the best out of a pretty sad situation with reddit.





  • Honestly, reading the comments of some out there regarding this issue. I’m starting to think that they did the right choice.

    It doesn’t take long to find fairly rude or insulting content regarding this.

    Most people have no reason to care if a small instance decided to sail away.

    It’s disappointing because I think this platform is already turning into reddit in term of tone/aggressiveness.

    And it’s not even just comments, it’s upvoting memes that are genuinely rude or targeting a specific community. I don’t like the way this is going.
