I was using nextcloud at first but kept having sync issues. I use syncthing to sync my Libre office docs and it always disconnects on my Android. I bought Mobious a few months back to sync photos from my iPhone and it always disconnected. So I switched to photosync. So in other words syncthing hasn’t really been reliable for me. I use a free Dropbox account and haven’t had any issues since. And the best thing about Joplin desktop is there is a Backup plugin, so if my Dropbox ever went down, I still have multiple Backups saved locally and on my Proton Drive.

I have been using Joplin with Dropbox sync. Syncs between my Desktop, Android, and iOS devices. Switched from Google Keep a few months back. Great app.

I have a self hosted freshRSS but I still just use the Feeder app 99.9% of the time. I guess I just keep Fresh as a backup in case the Feeder app ever goes down.

Then you’re using it wrong buddy.

I use Kodi for the Google drive add on to stream and nothing else. So I keep it as bare bones as possible.

The XR and 11 (non Pro) had LCD. The 12 and 12 Pro have the same exact OLED screen, so that’s when they stopped using LCD on the lower models with Face ID.

Yup. Same way I do it.

Use to do it individually. Now I do it all from one Master compose.

How am I shilling, you dope? I said what I did for MY personal experience. I never once said other people have to use it. In fact I would never recommend Linux to non tech savvy family members, unless they only do light shit like web browsing.

Just moved from WIndows to Linux Mint a few weeks ago and never going back

You dont need tampermonkey for Ublock Origin and Video Background Play Fix. It’s under add-ons when you go to settings.

I use Revanced, but keep Firefox Youtube and invidious as backups.

Here’s another trick. Go to youtube and then go to your Firefox menu and check “desktop site”. And then you can install it as a PWA on your Homescreen. Don’t worry, when you open it up for the first time from your Homescreen, it will be back in Mobile web format.

This essentially makes it an isolated app from your browser. Not cluttering up your history and tabs.

Don’t forget the “Video Background Play Fix” add on. That paired with the adblocking makes it where you can watch ad free YouTube while in another app or even with the screen off.

Vaultwarden ftw

Invidious

Makes sense

One thing I forgot to mention: when you turn your screen off or switch to another app, the video playback will stop. The easy way around this is to use Firefox Mobile. Go to settings > add ons and enable the “Video Background Play Fix” add-on. Now your video will keep playing in the background when the screen is off.

Same thing for Android. I have YouTube Revanced on my Android but been using iNVidious a lot more instead. It’s much less noisy without the YouTube suggestions algorithm and you can see only the videos that YOU want to see.

Just go here and pick an instance and go to the webpage. Then add it to your home screen as a Web app. And you’re done. You can make a login to sync your subscription and playlists across all of your devices too.

Also, you could take it a step further and host your own instance if you know how to spin up docker containers. That’s what I did. But you don’t need to. You could always just use one of the many public instances.

Are you on iOS? Invidious works with the screen off in iOS 17
