The only problem I have with it is that it doesn’t have support for 12-key Japanese input.

Yeah, db0 was also pretty good in my experience.

Not sure, but I do remember seeing hexbear.net on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works quite a few times. They seem to have the same moderation problems lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml have.

Yup.

If you plan on switching instances, sh.itjust.works and slrpnk.net are pretty good. I wouldn’t really recommend lemmy.ml or hexbear.net since they’re really not better than lemmy.world.

Thanks a lot! I just blocked .ml and hexbear since I’m kinda sick of seeing their bs.

I’m currently on Voyager as well but I can’t really seem to find it.

How can I block instances on Lemmy?

Some western countries have very strict copyright laws (e.g. Germany and the U.S.) where if an ISP sees you accessing pirated content, your internet access might be cut off or you might even get arrested.

You’re just posting fake clones of the official websites again. The original website was taken down. The ones you linked are just other pirate streaming websites using the same name for recognition.

That’s a fake clone…
The original site was this.

If you’re in a strict country, then definitely yes.

AFAIK Miru keeps the streamed torrent downloaded and seeds it in the background.

Edit: My bad, it seems to be a feature coming to version 6 of Miru, but currently it’s not available.

If you’re using a trusted VPN like Mullvad, it doesn’t matter really.

Miru for anime is pretty good.

Check the community Megathread. It has pretty good websites, even desktop programs.

Torrent streaming 😎

Most anime piracy sites just put the episodes into a few video hosting websites, and then embed those videos.

Thank you very much! I guess it makes sense a little bit that the lead developer of an older-style operating system is a conservative, but I was still not expecting it. It’s pretty sad that this seems to be the only new web browser engine that has actual support.

Okay, what does a sweepstake or a contest have to do with a browser extension, made to spot fake reviews. Trade shows? What?

I did take a look at this privacy policy before to check if the extension was worth installing, but holy fuck I didn’t see that.

And they collect a lot of things, supposedly “automatically”. I have never developed a browser extension, but does the browser force this information on the extension? Do they just look at their data collection and find the geolocation of their users, how they accessed the extension download page, browser specifics etc.?

They also sell your “automatically collected” geolocation data, “internet or other electronic network activity”, “inferences drawn from other personal information to create a profile about a consumer”, and “commercial information”. I’ve quoted the three data selling points I really don’t understand, since their “descriptions” aren’t very descriptive. But if we are to fully trust the lawful descriptions they provided, I hope the extension stays at 40,000 users really.

FakeSpot’s privacy policy

Yeah, no problem at all. This is a lot better than people downvoting and not actually talking about what they disagree on. Felt like r/apple.

Reading it again, Pocket’s privacy policy is actually not that bad. Thankfully it was not one of those 100 page ones that are made to confuse the shit out of consumers, but I have a slight problem with it.

“Personalized Advertising: Some Pocket web pages have ads. With your consent, Pocket’s ad partners will place advertising cookies on your device to personalize the ads you see here and on other websites.”

How does this consent exactly work? Is it just a simple check you have to tick in your account settings, or is it one of those cookie banners that require you to untick 800 advertising partners to “not give consent”? I’m not exactly a Pocket user so I’m a bit ignorant about it.

Though there doesn’t seem to be another privacy concern with Pocket. It seems I had misconceptions about their practices.

The one other problem I have with Pocket though is, it’s not a feature that should be in a browser, it should be an extension. They have already made a lot of extensions for features that not all of the userbase might need, even FakeSpot is currently an extension (approximately 40,000 users). I guess this is a whole another argument though.

I will write my thoughts about FakeSpot in another reply.
