Filter is not block though, if you open the instance on your browser, you still see them. Only if you actually block them, they are gone.

Yep, confirmed. Not working for me either in Beta 30.

I’m pretty sure they do it to fly under the radar, since mobile clients are far more dominant than smart TV applications.

And there’s also newpipe as an alternative to Vanced (or rather the other way around, I believe newpipe came earlier), and even a fork with sponsorblock integration. I personally vastly prefer them over vanced/revanced.

I’m using BubbleUPnp for screencasting.

You mean, only on Android TV. They don’t have a phone app, and explicitly stated they are not interested in developing one.

So that’s why you have 2 accounts ;-)

I can’t tell, I have a youtube account.

Workplace policy leading to inherent familiarity with the system.

Plus most people aren’t heavy users or particularly tech-savvy. Installing an OS from scratch is already too much to ask for most.

https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTubeNext is the only app you’ll need on a TV. It’s designed for it and fully syncs with your original youtube account.

Um, no. It flags it for the user to review and urges a removal, that you can ignore. That’s it.

I live in China and have a Xiaomi phone as a work device, and use all sorts of apps the powers that be don’t like on it.

Maybe put it on the github tracker as a feature request so you can be certain to get a reply?

They have pirated apps? That’s news to me.

Works for me.

The quick block is there, under “filter”.

I’m using bing.com/create (free access with an office 365 account) and then use prompts such as “create a simple black & white icon with broad lines for a mobile app depicting financial management”.

Modify the prompt a few times or run it a couple times in a row until I find something I like, maybe modify it a little in Photoshop, and done.

I believe the lemmy API only shows one or the other. Would be possible to combine it on the app, but not as a native function.

Every instance is hosting the API for their own users, and unfortunately lemmy.world has plenty of outages recently.

The way Lemmy works is that when you have an account with lemmy.world and subscribe to a community hosted on lemm.ee (for example), the lemm.ee server copies the content over to lemmy.world, and you see it all “locally”. Hence a lemmy.world server outage reflects what you see with your lemmy.world account. Local communities will always be shown “as local” of course, so a server outage then means it’s completely offline for the time being.

A quick fix would be to sign up with a smaller instance and subscribe to the communities from there (including the ones on lemmy.world), in that case even if lemmy.world is offline, you would be able to see and interact with their cached copies on the target instance. I’ve made an account with infosec.pub for that purpose.

Cards is the only view that feels right.

It does, but you need to manually open the https website, they don’t automatically forward your request.

I simply don’t like them. There’s zero use case where I would consider a foldable phone superior, or even equivalent to a regular one.
