this meme was my Facebook profile cover for a while 😁

Why not? I still look up information there too, but I use an adblocker, so it’s not like Spez is profiting from me.

If you don’t want to give them traffic, you can always visit the search result URL through the Wayback Machine or Archive.today.

I still see it, albeit rarely, on some subreddits, eg. NatureIsMetal

I’m using whichever is the freshest version BakaBT allows (v4.5.4 right now).

check out the other posts in the right sidebar, there are so many great ones :D

btw the source of this is a fucking brilliant webcomic/blog thing: http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/

looks nice, but I’m a PC user

thanks, it looks nice!

Huh, just looked him up, sad that he died so young :c

I tried out Fluent Reader (Windows) yesterday, but it was a bit buggy and lacked some necessary features, so I’m testing NewsBlur for now. The free version is kinda limited, but I love the training feature, and in general it feels the most user-friendly out of the 4-5 services/apps I tried yesterday.

Not that advanced, but two things I found useful:

• If you’re in a country that blocks torrent websites but not trackers (eg. UK), visit the sites via Tor browser.
• Rutracker.org and Rutracker.ru are surprisingly not blocked in the UK and have lots of good software. They’re BBCode-style forums, so fairly obvious how to navigate/search them even if you don’t speak Russian. If you want to read the description or comments of a specific torrent, pop the page into google translate.

thanks, I’ll check it out! I’d probably go with one of their cloud instances, as self-hosting is a pain with my skill level.

thanks!

that sounds good!

Yeah, I’m looking forward to meeting Navia in-story, she seems nice, just not sure if pull-worthy nice. Otoh I really like geo characters, so if her kit is good, maybe :D I’d love another geo catalyst.

Re story: Yeah, tbh that plot arc is pretty much the only aspect of Genshin’s story I find engaging. The rest is too juvenile for my taste 😅

No worries, but I’m a diehard PC user xd

I might end up going with an open-source desktop app in the end, both Fluent Reader and Raven Reader look good.

Yeah, the issue is that the whole sub is just screenshots and videos of leakers’ Telegram, Discord and Twitter channels. I don’t have free capacity for trawling through these kind of feeds, checking for reliability, etc. 😅

Thanks, I’ll check that one out too :)

I’m moderately excited, looking forward to exploring the new landscape, but aside of Lyney, I don’t particularly want to pull for any of the characters. (Maaaybe Wriothesley, depending on his personality and kit.)

thanks, I’ll check it out :)
