Downloads one instance’s communities (and some other settings) to a JSON, then you can upload from that JSON to a new instance. I’m not sure there’s anything that quite caters to what you’re looking for yet.

LASIM works great. Used it to migrate my main account to an alt for when my main instance inevitably goes down.

If you’re on the website, go to your post, click the 3 vertical dots so that it expands, and hit the trash can icon.

I wonder if it has to do with preloading images and stuff to make the scrolling smoother. This could be a negative for people on mobile data that don’t have unlimited data plans. If that’s the case, being able to toggle preloading on wifi only might be something other apps would want to implement.

Yeah, this would make sense. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a few “piracy repos” you could add to your package manager. I’ve never thought to look haha.

I mean, you kind of just described two things that are specifically hard to get working properly on Linux in general - MS Office and the Adobe suite. You’re better off using FOSS alternatives, like LibreOffice and Krita or GIMP. Otherwise, you’ll need something like Lutris as a Wine frontend to install Windows apps - and at that point, you might as well just install stock Linux, get qBittorrent going, pirate what you want, and install as needed. Plus, I don’t think I’d trust the security of a modified version of Linux for piracy. That’s just asking to be exploited.

Well, I’ll be. I didn’t associate that phrasing with that, but I think it worked. Thanks!

It’s funny. I hadn’t really noticed it til the comment pointing it out made me think about it. It’s still not enough to bother me, but I will say that other apps do feel smoother when casually scrolling the feed.

Yeah, that is one feature I’d like to see - links opened in-app. I’m sure there’s a way to request features.

I keep trying new Lemmy apps. Some are very good, polished, and will work for most people. No disrespect to any of the third-party apps - I keep rotating between a few to see which I’ll end up using most. Not knocking any of them. But I just keep coming back to Jerboa. Usually, the third-party apps will just be missing that little something. And on the rare occasion I feel like Jerboa needs a feature that another app already has implemented, bam, it’s in the next update (such as DMing users in this update). Not here to suck on that Jerboa peepee, but just wanted to say thanks. With all the appreciation posts going around for the new hotness apps, there’s still some of us that appreciate the classic and all the work put into it by the various contributors.

Honestly, I’d suggest making an alt account (maybe on lemmynsfw) just for NSFW, add the login to Jerboa, and switch to that account when you want to view NSFW stuff. It’s also nice because you can make a subscription list there and it won’t affect your main/non-NSFW account.

I was on µTorrent for a long time on a really old build (like 2.2.1) because it got even more bloated and crappy with every new release, especially over 3.0. I realized, aside from missing new features and stuff, it was probably a security risk being that far behind. I made the switch to qBittorrent and never looked back. It basically took everything I liked about that old style build of µTorrent and brought it into modern times.

It’s really been pushing some old posts lately. Caught myself about to comment on a post from 3 years ago. That, and here I am in this old post with you fine folks. 😂

Have you tried getting it on F-Droid as opposed to the Play Store (or vice versa)? I don’t see how that would necessarily make a difference unless there was a newer version pushed to F-Droid, but might be worth checking.

Mostly FOSS these days. There’s just so many options now. There’s a few things I have from the old days as I’ve updated from Windows 7 through 10 over the years.

Happens on upvoting for me quite a bit.

I can sometimes get them to populate if I do it twice or change it from Communities to All in the search filters. Other times, it just takes an extra 5-10 seconds after returning no results.
