The worst ever suggestion and unfortunately the most upvoted. Do not ever download music from youtube, free-mp3-download was a front-end for deezer with flacs and 320 kbps mp3 and music on youtube is only about 160 kbps, that's kinda okay for streaming but absolutely ridiculous if you want to download and keep it.

Well, most of popular in the world VPN services are already blocked. Even such simple things like Cloudflare's warp doesn't work, although it still possible to use it if you generate wireguard config and change endpoint, but there's a possibility that the wg protocol will be blocked in the future. The best way to bypass censorship in Russia right now is to use Chinese solutions for gfw circumvention such as shadowsocks/vmess/vless/trojan/etc. Or one can use self-hosted VPN servers, but it's very hard to find a way for paying for cloud services that are located outside of Russia.

It will be funny if they manage to implement microtransactions in some way.

It is still used. There are lots of various hubs, a bunch of niche hubs with content that is almost impossible to find anywhere else, especially if it's something really old and obscure, not all of them are public. Speaking of clients, try AirDC++ for instance, thats what I use right now

Well, that's very specific case to be honest. In that case you can just download whatever you want beforehand, from soulseek, for instance. Generally people make preparations in advance for such things.

I'm sure you were thinking about Eyjafjallajökull.

The ads alone would make me throw off my headset in disgust.

For a mobile, there is a modded apk,I've never heard ads there. For a PC, web player in Firefox with uBlock Origin, there are no ads at all there. The same goes for Tidal, I've never paid for these apps.

Well, the easiest way to find where the save files are located is to check out pcgamingwiki.

I'm currently playing on one of many wow private servers. Wotlk client, blizzlike 1x experience, and it's only 7GB

In tachiyomi if you are an Android user

Almost everything what I use is already listed here (Termux, NewPipe, Joplin, etc), so, here's a few small apps that no one has mentioned yet:

ViMusic - a tiny accountless app to stream music from YouTube music.

HTTP Shortcuts - an app that allows you to create home screen shortcuts that execute arbitrary http requests, it supports JavaScript, so, you can write even something pretty complicated.

I highly recommend Anna's Archive for anyone who's looking for books.
