dungeon cards, shattered pixel dungeon, or just read manga

Polyphia, Casiopea (Mint Jams album)

these two tools apparently let you rip borrowed audiobooks from this service named libby. although i haven't tested them. https://github.com/ping/odmpy https://github.com/bookbonobo/libby-download-extension

also, have you checked the index? stuff like this is usually there.

good call asking for a proper venue to test this, but how do you mean you can't remove federated stuff? i was under the impression (from lemmy's homepage) that one of the features is 100% complete deletion by replacing post/comment content with 'removed by user'. is this not the case?

Check out some alternatives:
searXNG - open source & self-hosted meta-search engine (aggregates results from many others, like google, bing, qwant, duckduckgo - configurable which ones.) list of public instances just pick one that's close to you physically and has a good uptime.
duckduckgo - uses bing for most search results, but is way more private
brave search - uses their own index, has a privacy-respecting privacy policy and the results are pretty damn good

fyi, lemmy doesen't have sublemmies, but communities. that's why the url is instance/c/community or yourinstance/c/community@instance

spent a few hours yesterday sorting all of my subscriptions and moving them to newpipe. while having everything auto-backed up by google was convenient, newpipe is much better - i go in, watch some videos i saved into a playlist or that have come out from subscribed channels, then go out. it feels way better then being sucked in by the algorithm. i think i'll still use youtube's algorithm on my pc sometimes, as this setup hinders new content discovery. but overall, i'm really pleased so far with the new setup.
