Note: This setup is both for my android and pc Edit: For those recommending paid services and selfhosting, I don't have the money nor resources for either. Also it seams some people are confusing my android setup with my PC setup so I'll write it down. Android: Brave(movies) + Ironfox, Search: Brave + DDG, VPN: Proton ( not always on), GPay = Cash, Auth= Aegis Auth, Pass: KeepassDX, PC: Firefox= Librewolf, VPN = No VPN (VERY slow internet), Search: Searxng + DDG, Pass: KeepassXC,

I don't see much love for Futo apps in here or Reddit (new here from Reddit). Why is that?

[–] InevitableWaffles@midwest.social 7 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

They are source available instead of FOSS which puts a bad taste in many of the FOSS advocates on here. I believe they also have backing from Curtis Yarvin. I hate that Grayjay is one of the only consistently working youtube front ends.

Here's what I read that laid out this issues.

I've found NewPipe to be a good YT alternative for Grayjay.

Why would I trust a commercial venture

At least with hosting or VPN services there's the excuse of you have to pay for a finite resource that costs money.

Oh. I had no idea it was a commercial venture. I thought it was just another FOSS team. Just found the keyboard the other day and it's been far better than Fossify.

Try heliBoard, making sure to add swipe library. Futo for voice transcription doesn't have a match yet.

You're right, "Futo" kind of sounds like that slur. What a good joke.

Oh, that's so cool to hear, I love comedians. Tell me a similar joke about a dance-tracking app called "Jigger." I'm sure you'll come up with something that is funny and consistent with the joke above.

[–] whatiswrongwithyou@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

TIL a racial slur with over a hundred years of use to demean and insult billions of people is the same as the word used to describe big titty dragons having penetrative sex with automobiles.

Please post the updated slurs.txt so I can call you them.

[–] orioler25@lemmy.world 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, so slurs aren't funny if you have empathy for the people whose suffering they reference? Interesting, I wonder what that says about your perception of trans women. I have a hard time believing you give a shit about African Americans or any African diaspora at all either, you just know that there'd be more consequences for making fun of that slur and its violent history.

Good joke, chud. Now go eat shit somewhere else.

Hey since you know a lot about this stuff, can you settle the balls/no balls debate?
