with apple devices, they do have long update periode. But when its over, the device is basically trash.

i use revanced extended. Also mind, after about every 6 months, videos start acting weirdly. Only thing you have to do is update it.

if ur planning to keep the car for a very long time and maybe hand it down to your kids some day, - i wouldnt go electric. These things wont last as long. The current ones on the market are all new, which is why people dont think about that yet.

if they wasnt under human control, elon would do videos like boston dynamics. But they dont.

it's easier to just believe in it. these people are weak (regarding privacy). I am not saying privacy is number one priority in life. It is not.

no. they do get money to put google as one of default search engine. but IMO that's fine for now, as they need money somehow. And librewolf, for those who take it seriously.

maybe browsers that obfuscate that information

 

Ever wanted to block an app from using the internet? Why does my keyboard need access to the internet? Can i block ads in this game when it has no internet access?

There are many reasons one might want to block an app from using the internet. Recently i came across a FOSS app that acts as a proxy and only allows selected apps from passing through and connecting to the internet. Set it up once and let it run from boot automatically after setup.

Unlike Xiaomi devices, sadly there are few Android skins that supports this feature out of the box. This app brings it to all.

GitHub, Fdroid and Download

devRant runs the web! (kbin.melroy.org)

skyRant has been a long ride. The project initially started with me, joewilliams007, creating a devRant client for watches running wear-os, also known as watchRant, available in the PlayStore and on GitHub.

As the project turned out as a success for myself, i thought of ways of "improving" and "adding on-top" of devRants mobile client. It turns out, the community itself had wanted some features since forever. Thus, skyRant was created. Features were added, like link-previews, user blocking, widgets, random rants, community projects page and the incredible animation of SIMMORSAL.

Due to the now-co-existence of the two clients, watchRant and skyRant, a third-party server had to step in for external synchronisation, and skyAPI was born, syncing blocked items and following users, plus it came with the ability to customize your profile further and react to posts with emojis.

Meanwhile the community was changing. Two new networks were added: Matrix - and this magazine on /kbin/melroy.

Both of which have open API endpoints which, I am proud to announce, can now be accessed to some extend through skyRant.

Please note: any previous versions have to be uninstalled, before updating, as the app signing key has changed - it was lost :0.

skyRant apk can be downloaded here: DOWNLOAD.

Thanks for reading. Have a nice time ranting :).
