Monetizing an apology video of all things says it all.

I think people who visit here have been pretty cool. Not any worse or inferior to people with accounts here.

I didn’t know something like that was going on. Logo would be cool.

It’ll probably be a 4k tv then? LG, Samsung, Sony, TCL, and Vizio seem to all have airplay support for TVs released recently these days. If Android TV it’s easy to side load smarttubenext, but never bothered due to finding airplay convent enough.

Until then it might be worth checking out to see if you can get smarttubenext installed on your chromecast

Looks like it is up to only 720p. Never been bothered by it myself for the type of content I’ve air played. Not ideal for movies or TV shows though.

What brand do you have? If they have Android TV they seem to usually have airplay support too, but you need to go into settings and then get your Apple device paired with the TV to get airplay to start working.

I wish some of that money found its way to small youtubers who don’t qualify for monetization and are just uploading for the fun of it. Those youtubers are my favorite since it feels more like the old YouTube or stuff like lemmy or whatever where people share without expectation of anything back other than just being excited.

My TV has airplay support built into it so I haven’t needed to get an Apple TV. But you do need an Apple device to use Airplay.

I use safari with adguard + sponsor block which lets me airplay videos to the TV. I don’t even have the YouTube app installed. No need to try and set up smarttubenext or whatever on the TV.

I had hated that aspect of Twitter which is what chased me away to stopping use of an actual account altogether and settling for nitter instead to keep track of accounts but no longer participating. But, it was so much better with how clean it was with apps like Fritter or RSS done through nitter instances so I only saw what I wanted. Now that’s looking like method is reaching its end.

The clutter they tried to push on me wasn’t worth consuming the material the official way anymore.

It was what killed Instagram for me years back too when they killed chronological feeds. Then I deleted the account and moved to using barnista to follow accounts without an account. Then that died and I just dropped Instagram altogether and didn’t look back, since I wasn’t going to make an account again and consume things the official way.

I wonder what percentage of the ones who were protesting the api but chose to stay and be active on reddit ended up downloading the official app.

One by one dominoes that made reddit awesome are falling. Wonder if Spez has the courage to require being signed in to view reddit content.

I just got a cheap brother laser printer and the toner seems to last forever.

In search of communities due to some on here not having a high level of activity on the fediverse I ended up with coming across a bunch of forums. So they seem very much alive stil.

I will enjoy windows 10 for at least 2 more years.

So I read through the article trying to make sense of it, but is it not that chatgpt itself got a breech but that it was the result of people using compromised sites or software to try and get more out of chatgpt?

A further analysis has revealed that the majority of logs containing ChatGPT accounts have been breached by the notorious Raccoon info stealer (78,348), followed by Vidar (12,984) and RedLine (6,773).

A “large and resilient infrastructure” comprising over 250 domains is being used to distribute information-stealing malware such as Raccoon and Vidar since early 2020.

The infection chain “uses about a hundred of fake cracked software catalogue websites that redirect to several links before downloading the payload hosted on file share platforms, such as GitHub,” cybersecurity firm SEKOIA said in an analysis published earlier this month.

Was clicking through links in the article.

Glad I was paranoid enough to use a throw away email and burner number.

I don’t mean so much in activity. Just the subscription to communities part.

Like knowing I could subscribe to like gamedeals and pcgaming and knowing that I can rely on my feed to contain posts from those communities as opposed one of them defeding from each so now having to subscribe to separate instances of pcgaming and gamedeals to see activity from those communities in my subscription feed. So now having two subscription feeds as opposed to one unified one to keep track of.

Commenting sure. But until some instance agnostic subscription feed comes out it looks like there is no reddit alternative to a reliable subscription feed right now.

Having to juggle multiple accounts to keep track of subscription feeds instead of one unified feed is a pretty big con. Not so much on the commenting end since that I do understand the reasons for.

I think what would help is the introduction of multisubreddit equivalent for lemmy and then allowing similar duplicate communities to have the option of linking up with each other so people can subscribe to public multisubreddit.
