Asking third-party reddit app devs to consider Lemmy after recent Reddit API changes.
I've also cross-posted this post on other third-party apps' subs: * [apollo](https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/13xy42u/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [Baconreader](https://www.reddit.com/r/baconreader/comments/13y0d0j/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [Relay](https://www.reddit.com/r/RelayForReddit/comments/13y195f/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [Infinity](https://www.reddit.com/r/Infinity_For_Reddit/comments/13y0tgn/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [boost](https://www.reddit.com/r/BoostForReddit/comments/13y08rm/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [sync](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditsync/comments/13y15wj/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [RIF](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditisfun/comments/13xymfw/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [Joey](https://www.reddit.com/r/JoeyForReddit/comments/13yhrfy/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [Get Narwhal](https://www.reddit.com/r/getnarwhal/comments/13yhslt/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [RedReader](https://www.reddit.com/r/RedReader/comments/13yhtlk/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) * [ReddPlanet](https://www.reddit.com/r/ReddPlanet/comments/13yn7fo/now_that_reddit_has_become_greedy_with_its_api/) EDIT: Forgot to write a bit of an introduction of myself, hello to everyone here, long time redditor and someone who also happens to mod a lot of subs on reddit such as r/electricvehicles, r/trulyunpopularopinion and etc! Though I love to moderate and contribute to this communities meaningfully, I never liked reddit, as a huge FOSS fan, and these recent API changes are freaking stupid as well, there wasn't a better reason for me to not consider moving to Lemmy. I will be speaking with a lot of other reddit mods in my own mod teams and some other friends, hopefully I can bring some subs/people here. Speaking of bringing people, please do consider checking out these posts I've linked above, and consider upvoting them if you agree, this situation with third-party apps are a great opportunity for Lemmy, hopefully it reaches to the devs, and even if not all apps make a move, even one would be a win. Thank you! EDIT 2: Hey guys! I missed some third party apps on the list above, just updated them, and the new added ones are RIF, Joey, Get Narwhal and RedReader. UPDATE: Added ReddPlanet. Please do consider visiting those that I just added and upvote them, so hopefully they can reach to respective developers!

Seeking Recommendations for Manga Downloading and Reading Software on Linux Desktop
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/1127259 > Hey fellow pirates and open-source enthusiasts! I've been a dedicated Linux user for quite some time now and I'm in need of your expertise. I'm searching for software that can handle both manga downloading and organizing, as well as providing a seamless reading experience on my Linux desktop. I prefer having separate programs for downloading and reading manga. If you have any recommendations, whether they're trusted open-source tools or reliable piracy-friendly solutions, I would greatly appreciate your insights and experiences. Thanks in advance for your help!

This would be nice if connected to a vicuna model offline. It's already possible to use webcpu for a local stable diffusion via browser, so...

The people there are full of potential, they only need guidance. Unfortunately I don't have a reddit account to do so myself, but I hope that someone is interested in teaching them about open source softwares like bookwyrm and even the open source philosophy in general.

>FerretDB, an open-source MongoDB alternative database, recently announced its general availability. Released under the Apache 2.0 license, the project allows developers to use existing PostgreSQL infra to run MongoDB workloads.





I want to create a fully free open source computer that is modular, modern and minimal?
Basically I want to have a computer to experiment with that is 100% free and open source and that doesn't break the bank. My current idea is to use a RISCV board like the mango pi and use FreeBSD on it. I only use terminal applications expect for the browser so I'm not too worried about performance. But also I have never done anything like this before, this is really just to mess around and learn. But I'm looking for some advice what are the best RISCV boards and is it even worth it? Plus is it even possible to build a 100% free and open source computer with a RISCV board? I am currently doing research into this and this is part of my research lol, thank you.
