I am not familiar with either Alan Watts or Stephen Chboski. But I searched that quote and didn’t find any reliable information about who said it: DDG produces only 2 results; Google produces a handful more, most of which are it being used on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter, and one being a Reddit post on an Alan Watts–related community in which the users don’t think it belongs to him.

So, yes, it gave you the wrong source, but if the source is unknown or obscure to being with, that’s hardly surprising. It can summarise and refactor text, not produce information out of the blue.

Does anyone know an example of an instant app? I’d like to see what this is before it gets shut down.

If you buy from a reputable seller with a good free return policy, at worst you'll have to send the device back. If you have access to a credit card or PayPal, it's a good idea to use them, in case the seller becomes unresponsive.

Your entry for Omnivore says the link to the hosted version is broken. That's because it shut down at the end of last year.

It was a good option for read-it-later, whereas most of the of the bookmarking self-hosted apps seems more focused on saving and sorting links.

Is it good for read-it-later functionality, for example to read from a phone without online connectivity?

Cloudflare works really well and has a good UI. Namecheap also works well, but it takes more clicks to adjust DNS records.

Sure, it's possible. I could do it by hand, but the more clients you want to add, the more cumbersome the process. What I'd like is a tool to automate what is mostly a templating process.

 

Is there an open-source tool to bulk-generate wireguard configurations without managing the wireguard installation itself?

I have an existing server set up with a special wireguard configuration that I created manually. I want to add a standard VPN server configuration to that machine without affecting the existing configuration. I've used tools for this in the past, but they all work on the premise that wireguard isn't already installed and that only said tool is used to managed the installation. I'm worried this might break my existing config, so what I want is something to automate generating keys and writing configuration files, without interacting with the existing wireguard installation. Does this exist?

For me, this has been the case for years, at least on Windows and Linux. It happens mostly on Maps, but also on Docs/Sheets, and to a lesser extent on GMail.

I use Firefox, but I have never had the same experience with it as those who claim it's just as fast as Chrome.

I have not, but from screenshots it seems only a minor reskin.

There was a Linux client I saw a while ago—Spring Mail or something like that?—which first downloaded your email from your provider onto their own servers, then your local client got them from their server. This additional cloud step is what I want to avoid.

 

Besides Thunderbird, is there any good desktop mail client for Windows that doesn't involve uploading mail to a cloud first?

Yes, I mean in the main feed.

Yeah, having the option is not a bad thing. Nothing changes for those who use the apps or want them there, but it lets people remove them if that's what they want.

 

Please add an option to show downvotes separate from upvotes. I find that information much more useful than just the total score.

 

We have been on 6 GB RAM since the 12 Pro, so for those hoping for an increase this year, it looks like it won’t happen.

 

It looks like several Lemmy instances were exploited last night. It doesn't appear that much damage has been done, but users may have to log out and back in if they use mobile apps.

@Illecors@lemmy.cafe have you found any indication that lemmy.cafe may have been targeted too?

 

When using an iPad in landscape mode, text lines in posts and comments are very wide. An option to reduce the width of the posts and comments to about 1/3–1/4 of the screen width, like Apollo did by default, would improve readability. Please consider this layout option if there is support for it.

Thanks a lot for your work on this app!
