How so?
There’s a web app in addition to the electron desktop apps, you can find an example here: https://feishin.vercel.app/
Just pulled the latest and tried again, and it works now! Thanks
Dude this is amazing! Exactly the sort of thing I’ve been hoping would pop up to further “decentralize” the torrent search experience.
So I’m trying to run it on my machine through the docker-compose option, and I’m seeing something weird. It shows as successfully running, but when I go to the port it should be running on, I get “unable to connect” on my browser.
When I check my containers running, it shows the 3 bitmagnet containers, but the port doesn’t show.
Ah good to know, thanks!
I use PodGrab, and think it’s great for saving local copies of podcast episodes to your server:
I think that’s only if they detect that you’re connected to an IP address that they recognize as part of a commercial VPN service, since i’m sure they have a list.
I use netflix when connected to tailscale VPN on both my phone and apple tv and it works fine, since the exit node that netflix is receiving my connection from isn’t a commercial VPN IP
The best alternative is one that you can self-host and/or isn’t centralized.
My favorite option right now is torrents-csv.ml, since it’s “a collaborative repository of torrents, consisting of a searchable torrents.csv file.”
Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network and compiles a csv of all the torrent magnet links into a CSV file that’s searchable on this site. You can selfhost your own private instance of the site by following the instructions on the repository here: https://git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic/torrents-csv-server
I believe that’s what the author of the repository is doing, and they’re then filtering out torrents without seeders and adding the list of magnets to the .csv file.
I’m in the US, and as far as I know, ISPs only block websites if the federal government mandates it, in which case all ISPs would have to block it.
If I had to guess, that’s probably for the Speech to Text feature, so you can reject that permission if you don’t want to use speech to text.
Tablets are good for “consumption” vs laptops/desktops that are better for “creation/production”.
If all you want to do is browse the web, social media, watch videos, etc then tablets are a simpler interface for doing that, compared to dealing with all the extra things involved in a desktop OS.
For creation/production, aka “real work”, laptop/desktop is obviously much more efficient and powerful for that.
There really needs to be an option for instances to upload images to imgur using their API.
imgur has been hosting images for years, and has the resources and experience to deal with stuff like CSAM.
It shouldn’t be the default/only option that hosting an instance means having to open the floodgates for anyone to upload images to their servers.
From a liability standpoint alone, it’s an absurd thing to just expect every instance to accept.
Stick my wiener into it
If that was actually the reason, Apple wouldn’t have allowed OsmAnd Maps, Maps.me, etc. and yet they’re in the US app store.
I didn’t say they were OSS (though I agree that it would be much better if it was), and I actually had no idea it wasn’t available in the US app store, since I installed it a while back when it still was. Not sure what’s going on there.
Off the top of my head: with Forgejo, you alone have the burden of hosting your repo, which means if your repo becomes popular, you have to deal with the costs of all that traffic to it.
The nice thing about the P2P/seeding aspect of Radicle is that anyone can clone your public repo and help seed it to others.
I see that Forgejo is working on federation which should help distribute the load of hosting a repo, but that doesn’t look to be completed yet
