  • The best alternative is one that you can self-host and/or isn't centralized.

    My favorite option right now is torrents-csv.ml, since it's "a collaborative repository of torrents, consisting of a searchable torrents.csv file."

    Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network and compiles a csv of all the torrent magnet links into a CSV file that's searchable on this site. You can selfhost your own private instance of the site by following the instructions on the repository here: https://git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic/torrents-csv-server

  • The common complaints i’ve read are that it had mediocre battery life and the screen felt cramped.

  • I believe that's what the author of the repository is doing, and they're then filtering out torrents without seeders and adding the list of magnets to the .csv file.

  • I’m in the US, and as far as I know, ISPs only block websites if the federal government mandates it, in which case all ISPs would have to block it.

  • If I had to guess, that's probably for the Speech to Text feature, so you can reject that permission if you don't want to use speech to text.

  • Tablets are good for "consumption" vs laptops/desktops that are better for "creation/production".

    If all you want to do is browse the web, social media, watch videos, etc then tablets are a simpler interface for doing that, compared to dealing with all the extra things involved in a desktop OS.

    For creation/production, aka "real work", laptop/desktop is obviously much more efficient and powerful for that.

  • There really needs to be an option for instances to upload images to imgur using their API.

    imgur has been hosting images for years, and has the resources and experience to deal with stuff like CSAM.

    It shouldn’t be the default/only option that hosting an instance means having to open the floodgates for anyone to upload images to their servers.

    From a liability standpoint alone, it’s an absurd thing to just expect every instance to accept.

    “Turks? You mean the Kazakhs?”

  • This is just the tech equivalent of tabloid gossip, and is worthless as tech news. Grow up OP

  • I get that the Lemmy devs are swamped with a lot of github issues, but how is this not one of, if not THE top priority for them right now? It's mind blowing that instance admins don't have the ability to disable the automatic caching of images from other remote instances.

    If any shit show instance that ends up having CSAM can then cause an admin's instance to inadvertently cache/host that same content, why the fuck would anyone be motivated to host an instance and deal with the liability?

  • If that was actually the reason, Apple wouldn't have allowed OsmAnd Maps, Maps.me, etc. and yet they're in the US app store.

  • I didn't say they were OSS (though I agree that it would be much better if it was), and I actually had no idea it wasn't available in the US app store, since I installed it a while back when it still was. Not sure what's going on there.

  • Ah that's strange, I wonder why that is. I installed it from the app store a while back before it was removed, which is why I still have it on my phone. Not sure why they did that.

  • GTA Online! I’m basic i know haha

  • Lemmy @lemmy.ml

    Subscription models for an app that’s not hosting anything is just the dev wanting a constant revenue stream, no matter how they try to word it.

  • Subscription models only make sense for an app/service that have recurring costs.

    In the case of Lemmy apps, the instances are the ones with recurring hosting costs, not the apps.

    If an app doesn’t have recurring hosting costs, it only makes sense to have one up front payment and then maybe in app purchases to pay for new features going forward.
