Show of your Piracy Workflow (Movie/TV) by u_u in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[-] u_u@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago

Same as you, I also haven't fully dipped my toes to the world of self-hosting (yet).

  1. For non-animation movies/series, I wade through the popular/trending categories or read recommendation from friends, lemmy or, god forbid, reddit. I don't really need to do this lately as my shows backlog is as long as my games backlog.
  2. For convenience always. 720p is fine for me.
  3. I stream. Unless it is one of my favorites I want to keep.
  4. Real-debrid+Stremio.
  5. Stremio does it for me. Also for anime, I have Anilist.

It's like how there are mass shooters and then there are sane people with guns. You don't remember the name of the latter because they are the vast majority and comparatively boring than the former.

True for English shows, I had substantially harder time finding non-English shows.

One way to improve Fediverse search feature: Combine search for "posts" and "comments" (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

First, I'm sorry if this is not the right place to discuss this.

I've been using both desktop browser (Firefox) and Voyager to lurk around Lemmy and try to reduce my Reddit use. Though most of the time, I went back to Reddit to search simple things such as:

  • "Best FOSS productivity Android app 2024"
  • "Linux distro NVIDIA"
  • "Recommended e-book reader beginner"
  • "Good quality air fryer"
  • etc

The point is, I like to check someone personal opinion and list of recommendations first when I want to make a decision to use/buy certain things.

I know for tech related questions, there are lemmy posts somewhere talking about them, but it's hard to find these posts because the search feature separate searching for posts and comments content when I believe both are equally important in subject/topic/discussion-oriented platform.

With Reddit, I can use the google trick ("site:reddit.com bla bla") to help me find what I need, but it's not that straight forward with Lemmy, considering there are many instances.

For example, someone might make a post asking for "affordable SSD", the comments might write "affordable" as "cheap", "bang for bucks", or "inexpensive". Search feature for both posts and comments will improve the chance of people finding relevant information.

Is there any way to do this? So then I can rely less on Reddit to find recommendations?

For what's it worth, I'm glad the shouty ones were leftists because otherwise I wouldn't even give lemmy a chance.

For me it's more like:

  • Tell other people about all these cool FOSS so people can enjoy them and ditch Big Tech stuff
  • Don't tell other people about all these cool FOSS because they might get too popular and Big Tech might notice and do whatever they can to remove competition by any means necessary.
Why in the year 2024 and with all the knowledge humans have now do people still believe in religion? by u_u in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Yeah, but who is Satan's uncle?

[-] u_u@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 10 months ago

Same, for me it's a "what if there's a nifty gameplay tips or worldbuilding lore that I might miss which would make me unable to fully appreciate the game if I skip the tutorial?" kind of thing.

If I had to guess: just innocent misclick.

I'm using Voyager rn and couple of times I've accidentally using the swipe gesture shortcut to upvote/downvote stuff.

That or the downvoter just had a really bad day. 🤷‍♀️

In what ways has your use of technology/internet changed in 2023? by u_u in c/technology@lemmy.world
[-] u_u@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I've done and tinkered with many things in 2023 like most of us here (migrated to lemmy, degoogle, unsubscribed to streaming services, linux, etc). Some things that are less known that I think worth to mention are:

  • Using shift+right click to open the full context menu in Windows 11
  • Finally set an Address bar shortcut for searching reddit content with Google. No more typing "site:reddit.com..."
  • Anilist with TachiyomiJ2K(mobile)+Taiga(desktop)+Mal-Sync(browser extension) for maximum anime/manga tracking automation!
  • My only shame in 2023: Creating a Facebook account (anonymous account) for the messenger and local hobby groups. All I can say is Facebook seemed to intentionally obfuscate its setting/option menus because they're all scattered in different pages and just a plain mess. f u zuck
