  • I've used SingleFile long ago before I started switching many softwares I used to more ethical/privacy-wise better ones and I never knew it was open-source that's good to know, thanks. Since then I have been using HTTrack for pages sometimes. I didn't know about WebScrapBook though, thanks for making me aware of it. I also never tried to save videos with softwares witj the purpose to save pages however I could make some use of these suggestions for other things, my goal is to automate it and while these suggestions are all good maybe not for automated synchronization with these platforms or other video sharing platforms. It's still very helpful your suggestions nevertheless, thank you!

  • Thank you for all the insights they're all helpful! I am taking affordability as priority but also sustainability so these are all good information for me to know to take a better decision on choosing

  • Thanks, I was only aware of being able to download auto subtitles from yt-dlp and downloading description into a text file. Is it possible to download comments too? Depending on what kind of video you watch, like if you are watching a video about grammar on foreign languages, sometimes there are people giving good advices in approaching it in a more simplistic way or easier to remember.

    e: apparently there's --write-comments for that to save into a json file

  • I am aware of there existing desktop-first open-source like PrimeOS and fydeOS for low-end computer/notebook but since it'd only be used for that I don't think it'd be worthy having an extra device exclusively for that, if I end up having another use cases restricted to Android maybe I'd have the more reasons to try such approach. I'll sure keep it in mind though, I really appreciate your suggestion, thank you!

    Is there any softwares to download and sync with YouTube/PeerTube/Lbry?

  • Ironically it's the typical rich countries you'd see statistics of doing most environment damage

    A new wave of government censorship is sweeping across the globe as countries are increasing their crackdowns on climate activism.

    From The Cool Down, AUKUS being the usual ones (i'm not going to mention the obvious ones like Saudi Arabia because it's not news they crackdown on protests in general). There's an interesting article "COP29: repression epidemic regarding climate activists and human rights defenders" from last year by Climate Network worthy a read regarding that.

    I'd not be surprised multiple scrutiny attempts aimed (including from bot farms) at climate activists on social media to be financed by those said countries and oil companies at this point

  • Thank you for taking the time to share it with me, I am a bit familiar with it, I used it to convert formats before but I ended up using shell/python scripts in the end to be more sttaightforward converting files, I will look more into it as soon as I get an E ink to try it out on book transfers, I have bought books outside Amazon and it'd be very helpful for me to have Calibre then

  • It appears so to really be discontinued but it'd not be a dealbreaker for me, I hate constant updates (i know security updates are for good but still annoying, i dont know if E inks do security updates like usually on mobile/PC though, do they?), interesting about the book transfer, is it natively supported by the device or do you use something like Calibre (which would be fine too)? Waterproof could also not be a dealbreaker for me I guess I could buy a case for it? I certainly wouldn't stand in the middle of a rain to read

  • Is it safe as PDF (i know PDF can be virus ridden by usually embedding the virus in specific parts of the PDF layers or so I heard a while ago, which I usually am careful what PDF i open) or more/less?

  • Ask Solarpunk @slrpnk.net

    Any advice on what to buy to use as an e-reader?
