Fair enough. It's nice to have something that just works out of the box and doesn't need much configuration, for sure.
And even though most points you have mentioned are actually doable in OBS, they need additional setup/configuration or a plugin. But I personally don't mind that, and in most cases I prefer that, especially granular configuration of video settings.

Why do you find OBS to be suboptimal? I never used OBS on Linux, is it not working well there?

Yeah it is visible, but much more subtle than on your original picture in the post.

Easier to see against the black background:

Maybe it's just a temporary image retention? Was there something (bright or white) previously at that section of the screen? Like some app that you use often?

OLED burn-in maybe?

Quote from some old guide:

The Importance of Being Connectable:

When it comes to torrents, being connectable can go a long way in helping your ratio. Connectivity is directly related to port forwarding, your router, and incoming torrent connections. Here's how it works:

You upload a new torrent. After going through the upload page and adding the torrent to your client, the client connects to the tracker to do the following:

1. Tell the tracker it is going to begin seeding a torrent.
2. Ask the tracker if there are any peers it doesn't know about.

Normally, no one has downloaded the torrent from the site between the time that you upload the torrent and when you add it to your client. So your client will now wait, for 45 minutes (or however long it's been told to wait by the tracker), until it will connect back and ask for more peers.

Now suppose someone downloads your torrent from the site after you added the torrent to your client. Normally, the person's client will ask the tracker for peers, to which the tracker will return your IP address to connect to. That client will then connect to your client, using the IP address and port number it got from the tracker pertaining to your client and the port it accepts incoming connections on. This is where being connectable comes into play. We'll assume your IP address is 139.129.43.5 and your port number used for torrenting is 3058.

When the peer attempts to connect to you on that designated port, your router has to know what to do with the incoming connection. It receives an incoming connection from the peer, on port 3058. If you have your port forwarded to your client correctly, that is, you've told the router what to do with incoming data on a specific port, the router knows to send anything coming in on port 3058 to the computer your client is running on. Now, if you are not connectable, the router doesn't know what to do with items coming in on port 3058, so they are discarded, and the other peer isn't able to connect to you.

If your port isn't forwarded correctly, the peer who just added your torrent to their client will have to wait for 45 minutes, until your client updates with the tracker, and gets the new peer's IP address and port to connect to. If the peer is connectable, you will then make an outbound connection to them, and it will connect successfully. Outbound connections aren't normally blocked by a router, unlike incoming ones, this is why a client doesn't need a port forward for outgoing connections. This scenario is also why you can still seed even if you aren't connectable. This can have very negative consequences for your ratio though as I will now explain.

Here's how not being connectable will hurt you. When you are seeding a torrent in a large swarm and a new peer comes online, his client will attempt to make connections to the other peers. If you aren't connectable, you will have to wait (at max) 45 minutes until your client learns of their existence, before you can start uploading data to them. During this time the peer is getting data from other peers, but not you. By the time your client finally learns of the new peer's existence, the client will already be done downloading! You won't get nearly as much upload than if you were connectable. Depending on the size of the torrent, your client may not get any upload for that peer, because he will have completed the torrent before your client even knew he was present.

The absolute worst case scenario is when both peers aren't connectable. Neither peer will be able to connect to the other, and both will sit without connection indefinitely.

Yes, butt:

I also saw a video of a monkey peeling it from the stem side and then proceeding to clean it of all those stringy bits before finally eating it.

Moon is running on Quake engine.

I just learned about it yesterday. Seems like Vivaldi but on gecko, which I always wanted to see.
Unfortunately it seems like it's maintained by only one overworked dev. It needs more funding and more devs.

Although I can't find those exact pics, I believe that the photographer is Drew Buckley (Puffin Man), he takes a lot of photos of puffins :D

Take those graphs with a grain of salt. There are several websites that track activity and all of them show different results. I also assume that almost every lemmy update affects these graphs, since things did break quite a few times.

This is from the official lemmy site join-lemmy. It says 820 Servers, 41k Active users
::: spoiler spoiler :::

This is from fedidb (same site the screenshot from the post comes from). 923 Servers, 39,832 Active Users and 433,819 Total Users

::: spoiler spoiler :::

Then we have fediverse.observer. Based on that graph, monthly active users are growing. 845 Servers and 43,631 Active users and 1,944,442 Total Users

::: spoiler spoiler :::

And finally we have lemmyverse. Which uses the method to find the "sus" servers and users, so 863 Servers and 1,741,848 Actual Users

To me personally it seems like the content is becoming more regular and better in quality overall. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, I just wish KISS offered a better widget customization.

Is this fake alert again, like with that bug in the Adblock Plus? I didn't notice any issues.

Overthinking everything and being a "perfectionist". So hard to finish or even start doing anything.

I'm not the OP, but Vivaldi has been my main browser for many years now.
The reason why some people like Vivaldi is the same reason why other people dislike it. It has a lot of additional features and customization options that other browsers don't. You may find that cool (e.g., people who used old Opera), or you may dislike it, because "I just want a browser to open web pages."

But anyways...here are some features that I really like and I miss in other browsers:

• Highly customizable shortcuts, gestures and command chains (macros) I use mouse gestures a lot, and on Firefox I had to install an extension to get that feature. Also one tiny feature that I love in Vivaldi, that I really miss in other browsers is to switch tabs by scrolling mousewheel while the cursor is over the tab bar.
• Easy way to add custom search engines (I assume other browsers have this too, but I know that on Firefox it's a little bit longer process to make one)
• Many ways to organize tabs (stacking, grouping, renaming tab groups...)
• Tab tiling (arranging opened webpages in a single window, good for comparing stuff or multitasking)
• Mail client and RSS feed reader (not very polished but it's still convenient)
• Workspaces (good for separating tabs, e.g., work, shopping, entertainment...)
• Simple markdown notes (you can access them quickly from a side panel, and u can quickly add selected text from a webpage by right clicking the text and add to note)
• Customizable menus (e.g., customizing options that are presented in the right click context menu)
• Quick commands (it's like a command palette from which you can search history, bookmarks, run commands, do simple calculations, etc.) you could in theory make your browser UI-less and just use the Quick commands.

Those are just some of my favorites but there is a lot more...And almost all of these additional features you can disable selectively if you wish to do so.

I also needed that feature recently and I found out that there was an option for 180° rotation that I needed to toggle on. But this is most likely specific to the ROM that I'm using.

Keypirinha - keystroke launcher. I can't use PC without it, and I also stopped using desktop shortcuts since I started using it. It's extremely lightweight and fast, and it can do a lot of different stuff using plugins...Open programs, open websites, use it as a calculator, convert currency, convert units, kill processes, list your public/local IP, integrate with Everything search, color picker, search timezones...

They realized that they don't have to make good a game, they can make a bad game and just advertise the shit out of it.

Lemmy guide and F.A.Q.

Chai tea? Chai is tea...

It never made sense to me, UX wise, to be up on handheld devices (one handed ones especially).

How about this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sN7kgEw954

I think the only way to show the icon on the status bar with tasker is using the notification (notify task) and giving it an icon.

     Profile: Detect Auto-rotation setting change
    	Event: Custom Setting [ Type:System Name:accelerometer_rotation Value:* ]
    
    
    
    Enter Task: Un-notify if autorotate off
    
    A1: Custom Setting [
         Type: System
         Name: accelerometer_rotation
         Read Setting To: %arstat ]
    
    A2: Notify Cancel [
         Title: ar ]
        If  [ %arstat ~ 0 ]
    
    A3: Notify [
         Title: ar
         Icon: mw_device_screen_rotation
         Number: 0
         Priority: 3
         LED Colour: Red
         LED Rate: 0 ]
        If  [ %arstat ~ 1 ]
    
       

You can set the notification to silent.

Is it possible to do other way around? Comment on kbin from lemmy?

Does anyone know if there is an extension which would mark the video as watched on youtube without actually watching it? So that you could still take advantage of youtubes front page.

It's possible to hover over the thumbnail and move the playhead of the mini player a few seconds before the end of the video, and that will count as if you watched the video, but it's slow and not convenient to do.

Oh my bad then. That was just the impression I got based on posts in floorp subreddit.

Oh, that reminded me of Osmos and also Feeding Frenzy. Makes me wanna play it now...

It works for me.
There is this site which has detailed status report, but to be honest I don't really know how to interpret all of that haha.

There is currently some error though:

I wonder if it's Midori

New owner? What happened?

It was hit or miss since 1337x started showing CF captcha thingie.

Alexandrite has a live preview of your text, but that's about it, you won't find anything better than that on any of the other ones unfortunately. Maybe some of them have it planned.

It's interesting to see that Lemmy users are so against the video.
I still stand by my argument that video is the superior type of media. Just because everyone instantly thinks of a shitty YouTube video with a 20 minute intro and filled with ads or a TikTok video of a stupid trend, that doesn't mean that video is bad. I do agree that most video content nowadays is shit, and I also agree that text or text+image posts are much better for a lot of things, especially when you are looking for specific information.

But whatever your opinion about the video is, you cannot deny that video is the most popular medium and the most attractive/addictive one.
I made this post because I keep seeing posts about "Active monthly users dropped..." pretty often on here. Some say that's because of the X reason, some say it's because of the Y reason... Whatever the reason might be, this type of platform needs users, a lot of them.

I think that providing a bit of a doomscroll content through videos wouldn't hurt anyone. The whole point of this type of site is to have communities focused on different things. Many communities that are very popular on the "other site" are basically dead here because video (embedded video posts) support is bad here.

Besides, isn't this a site on which you can choose which communities you follow? So why would people who are against video posts even care if you can simply filter such content if you are not interested in it? A few of those "doomscrollers" might trickle into your niche community tomorrow and make it more popular...

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm kind of skeptical about Lemmy's ability to keep the users. So I personally wouldn't mind filtering a few shitpost communities if that means that we get more active users in other communities.

Maybe I'm wrong...

Midori seems pretty shady. I remember it as a super minimalistic browser, but now it seems like they are straight up taking someone elses work and just changing the name and sponsor links within. I tried it and it seems like 1:1 copy of floorp.

I did try Otter in the past when I was looking for the Opera replacement, never really liked it. It seems like it's pretty dead...last update was 2 years ago. And speed was never really my priority for the browser anyways. I'm not really looking to replace my browser, I'm happy with Vivaldi, I just like to check what else is there. I was happy to see that there is a browser based on gecko that seems to be going in the similar direction as Vivaldi.

Florisboard is nice.

This is how I use youtube with NewPipe while still taking the advantage of recommended page (algorithm).

A bit of a complicated setup, but it's not that awful.

• Browser
• Open link with...
• NewPipe

I use browser to open up the youtube front page (thus taking the advantage of the recommended page) Tap and hold on the video you want to watch and in the context menu, choose Share link and then choose to share it with Open link with, which will let you choose where you want to open up the video in, then choose NewPipe.

In chrome based browsers a shortcut will appear for the most used share link option you use, which will reduce one tap.
