2·13 days agoI do like the idea of a P2P system. I used to be on ZeroNet but there were just too few people and too little content to stick with it. I hope something like this takes off.
Just wave your arms and shout. They’re more afraid of you than you are of them!

I’ve used it a lot just to control audio or video playing on my computer from my phone. (Sometimes when I’m sat at my computer with multiple windows and workspaces open, I even find it easier just to hit my phone’s lockscreen to pause the music.)
I’m starting to use some of its other features, too. E.g. copying & pasting and sharing files between phone and computer.
There’s more too I need to explore.
(Unfortunately, sometimes I get a ‘device unreachable’ error when both devices clearly have a working connection to the same router.)
Upvoted for FreeTube.
What do you use to send YouTube links to FreeTube? Personally I’m using LibRedirect https://libredirect.github.io/

Strange, it works for me. So I’ve pasted it into the OP if you still want to read it.
Basically, use of proprietary software and services was demanded at all levels (doing tasks, submitting assignments, attending online classes, completing forms etc), especially as the pandemic picked up. Lecturers would often refuse or not even respond to his requests to use free alternatives, and some would count his not being in a Zoom or Skype meeting as an absence.
Yeah, I can’t swear I would have held firm through all that he went through.

- Browser: Zen (mod of Firefox)
- Extension: LibRedirect (pre-installed in Zen IIRC)
- App: FreeTube
I click on a YouTube link and it opens in FreeTube, no ads.
Every now and then, videos won’t play because of some change by Google, usually it’s just a day or so until FreeTube releases an update that works again.
Are you sure this is not The Onion?
Not an expert but I’ve read comments that it handles complex MS Office-created documents better than Libre Office, as internally LO converts everything into ODF, even if it will be saved in original MS file format. IIRC Only Office, SoftMaker, and WPS leave the file in MS format, leading to less unwanted changes.
