I don't want to spam the community but I can't for the life of me find a way to search within communities. If anyone knows a way, it'd be greatly appreciated.

I'm basically looking for the fastest way to get music on my old ipods (nano and classic 5th gen). I once used a de-drm tool to import my Spotify playlists but it took days. Are music torrents mostly private trackers now, or do y'all know a better way to get my stuff on an ipod?

I saw this image the other day and thought I'd save it for confused reddit refugees hehe

This is amazing, sending this to my less tech savvy friends!

Hi Frens,

Just like most people I've been playing around with different apps for Lemmy. However, a function I haven't seen around yet, is a slideshow mode.

BaconReader, an app for The Website That Shall Not Be Named, had the ability to open a post and start swiping left / right to scroll through your frontpage. Scrolling down is where the comments and voting arrows were. This was the only way for me to use my phone on bad hand function days / disability flare up days because it only required one hand motion (swiping) instead of opening, scrolling, clicking, going back, scroll, clock again, repeat.

Is there any dev out there who would be willing to implement such feature? Or did I somehow miss am already existing android app that has this functionality?

I think it would be useful to you to release a very early beta for 2 reasons:

  • apps are popping up left and right, I think some users may pick one and stay on that app after having tested all that are out
  • you can get early feedback on what people would like to see but also bugs and glitches they may encounter on different devices / instances

I think this would be too niche and also too expensive (I believe e-ink is expensive?) but I would also love this!

As soon as I put my ereader down for a quick look at my phone I'm on another device so I kinda forget to pick up my Ereader again. So yeah I'd love to see that.

Honestly: no.

But I must say that I wasnt enjoying reddit in the way I used to anymore. I used to scroll reddit in bed to wind down, mostly text posts (meaningful conversations) or cute animal pictures. Last few years it turned into doomscrolling with way too much video content like tiktok/reels/shorts. So I enjoy the text and image focus on Lemmy which also seems more civil (for now?).

I've been using nova launcher prime since forever. Make a backup on my old phone when getting a new one, and import it on the new phone.

It feels like the good ol' poop knife days

I second this. Can find pretty much any (English) book I'm looking for on here.

[-] dancing_sauce@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I would love to see Baconreader as well. The only app that's perfect for scrolling through posts while laying down. Just swipe.

I'm wondering the same thing, I feel the same as when I joined reddit over a decade ago lol.
