So I read many times that it can store "several TBs of data" but how many exactly? 2, 3, 5, 10?

Do they know exactly? Is it possible that they write 5 TBs and when they try to read it, they can only read like 3, losing the other 2 TBs?

And don't forget that Google is pushing to restrict Android just like iOS where if you unlock the bootloader and root, SafetyNet fails and apps stop working, while in windows having admin accounts is normal.

If you already use Piped and have Android then you can use LibreTube, a client for Piped

Or people can also install other browsers for other purposes...

Thanks for the app but can you add support for 2FA please? @rmayayo@lemmy.world

About Firefox, all browsers on iOS have to use Safari engine so they are basically just a Safari skin so I don't know if you can use uBO but probably not.

Yes, I like RSS for tech news but I still prefer to read a discussion on it.

Never heard of that one before but will definitely try. Thanks

Unpopular opinion but I switched from RSS to Google News and Reddit / Lemmy for basically 2 things:

I like the Google algorithm for news (guess that's why it's called that) it shows relevant news, especially local. When I subscribed to local news papers' RSS, for example, they pump a lot of articles and the relevant news were difficult to spot. It still lags behind on tech news for instance.

I switched to Reddit because of the community content: conversations. On RSS you get all the news and all that but it lacks the social aspect, people discussing an article, learning from others. This is why I'm still here.

I agree and let me add one more reason.

I don't claim to represent all dumb people on the internet but being dumb myself, sometimes I need a clear indication that something is sarcastic, otherwise I just don't get it.

 

Hi. Can you add a button to download media (pictures, gifs, videos)? Thanks!

I should add I'm using the newly released Android native app so long pressing a picture won't bring the browser's context menu to save it from there.
