Working fine in the web browser. (Service: FreshRSS. Host: cheredeprince.net.)

I haven't been able to get it working in an Android app yet (tried Capy Reader and Readrops), but that might be because I don't know anything about making FreshRSS or those apps work. I'll keep trying.

The engaging story, painstaking animation, and box-office success of “Ne Zha 2” have inspired a great deal of pride among the Chinese movie-going public, not to mention birthing a plethora of memes, trends, and social-media hashtags. But this surge of pride has also resulted in the suppression of critical takes on the film and the buzz around it: some critical articles have been deleted from social media platforms, and Chinese bloggers and reviewers have reported being criticized or attacked online for expressing dissenting views.

HEAVY ONLINE CENSORSHIP OF ARTICLES CRITICAL OF ANIMATED CHINESE BLOCKBUSTER “NE ZHA 2”

Just used one of the hosts listed there to have newsfeed aggregation, alternative to my current Feedly, and to general algorithmic social media doomscrolling controlled by big US or Chinese tech.

I'm unfamiliar with Fresh RSS but I signed up with cheredeprince and have already added a feed, reading it on my PC.

Not sure how to use it on my phone yet.

Bluesky = fedivapour?

Sadly it’s more difficult to turn computers, websites, tech services, and operating systems upside down.

Challenge accepted!

That works, thanks!

Although I think this is the main link? https://sfba.social/@historyofpunkrock

I'm new to the fediverse and can't access the link.

I'm on pixelfed.ca and logged in, but the link demands that I log into an account on pixtagram.social. (I also did a global search for "punk rock history" but it doesn't show up.)

Is there a way I can see it without creating a pixtagram.social account?

I can't wait until Half-Life 3 finishes loading!

New to Lemmy.

And new to workspaces. I'd get confused at first which workspace I was on.

Different backgrounds helped a bit, but I'm almost always in maximized windows.

I wanted to have different colours for windows, panel etc but couldn't.

So I adjusted panel opacity to 95% on Enter, 75% on Leave. That allows the background colour to bleed through.

A user on the Linux Mint forums suggested adjusting workspace margins to let the background show even when windows are maximized.

So now I have an 8-pixel strip of desktop showing just above the panel. Combined with the lowered panel opacity, I never have to wondr anymore what workspace I'm on.

  • Workspace [1/2/3] with windows minimized.
  • Workspace [1/2/3] with window maximized, panel at "Leave" opacity of 95%.
  • Workspace [1/2/3] with window maximized, panel at "Enter" opacity of 75%.

(I read somewhere that it's better to host images for Lemmy on Pixelfed. So I made my first post there with all the screenshots, and linked to it. Hope that works.)

PS: Anyone have any other ideas to help distinguish workspaces at a glance?

Hi, brief reddit user just joined (to derisk/decouple from the enemies of democracy). Thanks for doing all this! (The instance, the guide, I just joined the Fedecan Pixelfed, too.)

 

On the database website, I didn't see any alternatives to GitHub, or even a category for that I could submit to.

"Software development, collaboration & hosting"?

Here are some:

Alternative to... lots of stuff: GitHub, Google, Gmail, Google Docs, Discord, Skype, Reddit, Twitter etc

  • Disroot (Netherlands, non-profit)

Alternative to Microsoft VS Studio Marketplace (extensions for VS Studio IDE)

Open source alternative to Microsoft VS Studio IDE, with Microsoft telemetry removed
