My legal gaming library is absolutely massive, because I’m able to test games for free first to see if I like it. IMO making people wager $70 that they’ll enjoy a game based on doctored trailers shouldn’t be legal. Same thing with music. Imagine not being able to listen to an album before buying it.

/post/ and /comment/ are also a couple other url schemes you can navigate to and fix (e.g. the https://feddit.de/post/822722 link in the OP. Nvm I think I just realized these numbers aren’t canonical across instances. Surely the backend has an ID that every instance shares - is this exposed on the frontend? It would be cool if we could just go to lemmy.site/a9637e6c-780a-4de0-b02e-8277a54cb978 and it would navigate us to the post we want.

Also, you might want to disconnect your observer while making changes, because I think any changes you make will cause some light recursion. An example of how I did it is here.

I believe that since Lemmy.ml is on v0.18, Jerboa 0.34 no longer works with it. Jerboa 0.35 has released today but it might take some time to get to your app manager

It’s worth keeping everything archived somewhere in FLAC if you care about it, because that’s lossless and you can convert it to newer cooler formats in the future. Opus is currently the best lossy audio codec - if you need space on your phone, convert an additional ~128kbps Opus copy of your library for transparent quality and super small filesize.

Don’t believe anyone trying to sell you on the idea that FLAC sounds better than an appropriately compressed (read: transparent) lossy format: Opus ~128-160kbps, MP3 ‘V0’ (~215kbps), MP3 320kbps, AAC ~150kbps.

Check the “Music encoding quality” table on this page for more info on Opus bitrates and how they relate to transparency.

In theory upvotes are counted from every server. In practice, there’s been some small synchronization issues in the past where servers fail to send upvotes sometimes. It should be better now.

It’s possible. I think the biggest obstacle is that the corporations feeding on people’s data are not going to just stand by while it happens.

Thanks for pointing this out. I use changedetection.io and Huginn - I’m going to see if I can consolidate my scraping into just Huginn instead.

I’m still finagling with it but I used the Website Agent and xpaths and it seems to work as intended. I followed a bit of this guide. The problem I’m currently trying to solve is that one of the websites I monitor lazy-loads content with JS, and huginn tries to instantly grab html data.

The choice is clear.

Seems like it, yeah: https://retro-vintage-photography.blogspot.com/2012/01/nicholas-romanov-of-russia-1868-1918.html
