Sure, but you did you download them, listen to them and then delete them, or did you keep them around for archival purposes? Because it’s rather untypical to re-listen to a podcast episode many times, which you might do with music.

I don’t know, I also use DDG because I can’t find a better alternative. I thought you had a better recommendation 😂

The only thing that comes to my mind is 4get, a proxy for DDG which is a little better for your privacy, since you don’t have to trust DDG as much. But it lacks some features like DDG’s Bangs.

There’s also LibreY, a fork of LibreX, which acts as a proxy for Google. Still not great though. The one thing I really like about it, it that it also has a built-in torrent search feature.

I think the best option is SearXNG, you can configure which search engines you want to use, and you can access DDG bangs by using two exclamation marks (e.g. !!yt for YouTube)

Unfortunately there’s no good self-hostable search engine with a good web crawler

What do you use?

Gone?

Why did you download podcasts?

When I finally got a seedbox and started downloading massive amounts of movies, TV shows, games and music (first to the seedbox, then archived everything on my home NAS, deleted everything with lots of seeders from the seedbox to save space, and now I only use it for either new stuff I want to download, or seeding content with very few or no seeders)

I will say I’ve never ever even once had an issue with my M1 pro 16",

Same for my M1 Pro 14", the only issue I have is that the macOS version of Firefox just absolutely obliterates my battery, I mostly use Safari now, because it’s much better optimized. That’s really quite unfortunate, but it’s not Apple’s fault, and I don’t see any hope for this, unless Mozilla decides to continue development of the Rust-based Servo browser engine, and eventually Firefox may switch away from the antiquated and incredibly inefficient Gecko code.

Not trying to shill for Apple or anything, but I have found MacBooks (excluding the 2015 MacBook, and the 2016-2020 Air and Pro models) to be extremely stable and reliable, especially since they use their custom ARM CPU/SOCs. It reminds me of the good old PowerPC days, these machines were also reliable, basically unbreakable like a tank. In build quality, hardware and software. With the ARM transition, Apple really appears to have brought back the glory days of computing (unfortunately not in terms of upgradability and repairability, but at least in quality, stability and reliability).

I’m even more excited for the continiously improving Linux support on these devices - thanks to the amazing Asahi Linux (!asahilinux@lemmy.world) project. Also consider following them on Mastodon: @AsahiLinux@treehouse.systems

Is that an actual Hackintosh (running on bare metal) or just a virtual machine?

Couldn’t you just use an adblocker extension in Safari?

Now also throw GNU Guix, Homebrew and some AppImages in there

Doesn’t I2P encrypt the traffic already?

macOS doesn’t support some basic ways of rendering text and colors. I see iTerm as strictly necessary if you are serious about using the Terminal on a Mac.

It seems like you’re using the standard macOS Terminal. It has all kinds of issues with many terminal applications. I recommend switching to iTerm2. You can install it with a simple brew install --cask iterm2

I haven’t tried Haveno yet, but LocalMonero had an option called “Cash by mail”. It’s exactly what it sounds like: You mail cash to a Monero seller, and get your XMR in exchange. This is perfectly legal in the EU, it only might be an issue in the US, since mailing cash is technically not allowed by the postal service. Seems like Haveno also has this option: https://haveno.exchange/faq/#how-can-i-exchange-monero-for-fiat-without-involving-banks

Oh, I missed that then. I’m excited to try it out.

It hasn’t been officially launched yet. I’m eagerly waiting for it 👀
