Good luck with your kids!

Which software was ahead of its time? by Schnaftator in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] Schnaftator@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 6 months ago

Now that is a name I haven't heard in a long time! There are videos of Dr. Sbaitso usage on YouTube (of course). Also got this software with a Soundblaster card somewhen in the 90s.

What are in your opinion "essential" android apps that aren't as popular/talked about? by Schnaftator in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

The link preview is totally broken for me. So I wanted to shout WHAT DID YOU SWITCH TO, DENVERCODER9??? But in the reply UI I see now the link text, and it's Termius.

I switched from termux to ConnectBot, fwiw.

Spaceballs! The protagonist turns out to be an honest to God prince.

Will definitely check out that app. I've used Feedly so far, but was pretty amazed by FreshRSS' PWA.

Wow, your comment took me down a rabbit hole. I now too self-host FreshRSS on my NAS using Docker. And, oh boy, this is so good!

BookWyrm vs. OpenLibrary (lemmy.sdf.org)

I believe there are some BookWyrm users here, that's why I'm trying to (mis)use this community as a support forum.

In the latest Fediverse rush I've created a BookWyrm account and imported my GoodReads data. Some of the books in my library are pretty niche, had to be imported from OpenLibrary and don't have a cover picture. So I made a cover photo for one of them and uploaded it to BookWyrm and OpenLibrary.

Now I'm wondering... Is book data entered into BookWyrm contributed back to OpenLibrary? Does anyone use OpenLibrary? OpenLibrary seems to offer pretty much what BookWyrm offers sans the federation. Still, it seems like a good and open project, and being hosted by archive.org and having been co-created by Aaron Swartz. Now I'm on the fence what to use. :-)

I wonder whether the texts are moderated. Nothing remotely offensive shows up.

I'm not complaining! :)
