Most Piped instances are also not working because they use NewPipe Extractor under the hood.
I have also temporarily switched to FreeTube for Android, because a few of the Invidious instances are still working fine.
The nice thing about the FOSS world is that it’s pretty easy to import subscriptions and other stuff from NewPipe to FreeTube.
I hope this YouTube fuckery is handled soon. I love NewPipe way more every time it successfully deals with the YT weirdos.

It says that Piped is affected as well. This is probably a dumb question from me, but I use NewPipe in my phone to access YT - and it did not cause any trouble yet. I heard that the Piped project also uses NewPipe Extractor under the hood (which basically scrapes YT website). So why would Piped break but not NewPipe ?
I love you brother…
“galactic balls” - I am so going to use this phrase…
Linkedin is Facebook with a necktie and a blazer on.
Agree? (Lol)
Privacy is not binary, it is a spectrum.
You have no fucking idea what a beautiful thing you just wrote.
Not an email service per se, but rather an email-forwarding service, and offers unlimited duck [dot] com aliases with their browser extension and/or mobile app.
I have used their email forwarding service for a while (it is quite decent) before moving over to Firefox Relay.
And if you wsnt a FOSS option for unlimited email aliases - Duckduckgo is a good option.
Earlier I was wanking for no reason, but now I get to showcase my c*m to investors - yaay
Thanks for pointing it out. Edited the title.
Does your medical insurance advocate on your behalf, can you send them the bill yourself for them to deal with?
They generally do. In fact the previous incident I mentioned about in my post - the provider said they sent the claim to my insurance, while in reality they did not. My insurance stepped in at that time (because the bill explicitly mentioned “claimed to XYZ insurance”, and that was obviously a lie) - and they sorted it out with the provider (basically the provider admitting that some intern screwed it up and they had to actually submit the claim). I still left that provider.
This time it’s different - because the provider has not yet submitted the claim and are is not hiding it either. They are just ignoring my requests to first claim then bill.
Not sure if my insurance has anything to do here.
Excuse me - if I bought your product and paid for it, in what universe am I not investing into you, and instead you are investing into me??
HP is a steaming pile of shit.
They were sold to ZippoApps, who specializes in adding crapware to apps.
What else would we expect anyway…
To provide “personal recommendation”, an App would most likely need to profile you, i.e. track your viewing habits and trends, and forecast your areas of interests.
IMO this goes directly against the concept of privacy.
On the brighter side, I think Freetube (local, on windows) and LibreTube (on Android, but needs a piped account) can provide personalized video suggestions, but you yourself should check them out.
Whenever I hear this argument
“Most people are not interesting enough to profile, so they don’t need this XYZ privacy tool…”
I always have this ready as a counter argument
"Only a stupid person would not care about pickpockets just because his wallet does not have much cash - a pickpocket will not ask you how much cash you have before picking your wallet, and even if your wallet turns up to be empty, the pickpocket is not going to be a gentleman and return that to you.
Tracking/profiling for Ads on the internet happen en masse; you are just one of a million data points that build a profile - it doesn’t care whether you as an individual are interesting or not".
I am also a former Jerboa user and although I kinda liked it - the sole reason that I moved away from it was the lack of a proper search feature (It is already well-known that the Search bar in Jerboa is basically only for communities; Jerboa can’t search for posts, comments or users.
I have lately been using Eternity - and the main reason is that Eternity is a fork of Infinity for Reddit, and Infinity was a complete app by its own merit - so although Eternity is not updated frequently, it is very unlikely that I will miss any essential feature in Eternity for Lemmy.
Just my 0.02.

Yep, someone thought of porting the awesome Freetube app to Android. It’s not as polished as NewPipe, but gets the job done. Especially at this time, it’s the only one that is working, having both a local API as well as option to use Invidious API.
I pulled the apk straight from their github page via Obtainium. You may want to give it a try.
