There’s Zotero. I haven’t used it but seems to have a feature called ‘Collect with a click’ which should allow adding bookmarks.

And should the need arise, you can re-sell it for more, because it has never been opened and is thus brand new. Stånks.

Use your powers wisely, you must

Where is this? (Sorry, I’m an European, on the edge of the map)

Ho ho ho

You’ve still got some miles left in you, don’t give up! Unless they’re green, then you’re screwed.

No worries, you can hammer the dents out.

Hah, yeah. Like others, I already use uBlock, and I don’t really use Facebook any more. On the other hand, I’m worried about the social implications of not using FB and Messenger. I’ve been planning to move to secure messaging apps, but it almost feels like you’re not a human if you don’t have FB. In that regard, I found switching my email provider easier. But I’ll remove my account eventually, more likely sooner than later.

Nice move Meta, you just cemented my decision to leave Facebook / Meta for good. Thanks!

I can’t be arsed to write the pronunciation in IPA. Just go on Google Translate to hear how it’s pronounced or learn Welsh on Duolingo.

Da iawn, rwyt ti’n gallu siarad / ysgrifennu Cymraeg nawr / rŵan! :)

“Rwy’n hoffi chi. Dych chi eisiau mynd i’r caffi gyda mi am baned o goffi?”

“I like you. Do you want to go to the café with me to have a cup of coffee?”

I’m still learning Welsh, so this might contain mistakes, but it’s better than saying you don’t understand her… For future reference, you know.

Edit: Meant to reply to the comment below me.

I’m just adding an additional source, because I just recently read about this way of using the forward slash to create abbreviations. English Language & Usage has a good post on Stackexchange. Wikipedia says they are used for “two-letter initialisms” (a type of abbreviation). Wikipedia also provides some more examples, see here.

You’ll need long eyeballs to use them, though.

Thanks for the idea. I tried Handbrake to decrease the video quality and it seemed to work well. Also, getting rid of audio also gets rid of a big chunk of data, decreasing the file size.

Top left, blinds down, is obviously a vampire.

You’re right. I’ll just go with a cloud storage provider then, other than Google. My main concern is privacy, yes. I recently got rid of my Youtube account, which had accumulated a little too much information about me for my liking. But returning to cloud storage, If I use shareable links for friends and de-share the videos when done, I don’t think they’ll leak outside of said cloud storage provider.

I found peertube.io which has an unlimited upload quota… I think?

Okay, I might give PeerTube another try.

Thanks for your input and apologies if my question is a bit vague.

I’m primarily looking for a service, but might be interested in self-hosting in the future. I don’t have experience with self-hosting, but I suppose it could be an option in the future. I found a website about video CMS’s which require self-hosting. However, I don’t plan on sharing a lot of content, just an occasional video every now and then. As for accessibility of the videos, I’d make them available for anyone with a link.

I also looked at other cloud storage options and found IceDrive, a paid service. I think it has video playback but I’m not sure. I’ve heard about it before and the price is affordable enough for me to give it a try. It has client-side encryption which is good.

EDIT: sorry for uttering the forbidden phrase ‘paid service’.
