I have really enjoyed Invidious in the past, but anytime I had to switch to a new server, I had to re-import all of my subscriptions, re-select my favorite channels, re-create my playlists, and re-update my preferred settings. While that doesn’t sound too bad, it got annoying as it happened numerous times and I eventually gave up. If there’s any way to make all of that easier/more streamlined, I may give it a try again. For now, I’m using a tweaked version of the iOS YouTube app and Freetube on desktop.

Interesting. I’ll have to look into PiVPN. Thanks!

Mod workaround?

I’m enjoying Mlem for iOS. Quite a few display options and customizations, and runs smoothly. I haven’t totally decided on it yet though, as I am still testing quite a few.

Edit: This post got me to try out some of the apps again, and I think I may actually use Avelon on iOS for now. Seems to be closer to Apollo, which I enjoy.

I didn't realize that there was a movie. Thanks! The book was great.

 

Monday, September 11: Competition to design new city flag, friend speed dating, ranking local high schools, MSU coach suspended, and a Michigander on Survivor

 

Older people are less likely to be diagnosed but more likely to experience certain kinds of illnesses, research suggests.

Ask Patricia Anderson how she is doing, and you probably will not get a routine answer. “Today, I’m working and I’m fine,” she said on a recent Tuesday. “Saturday and Sunday, I was bedridden. Long Covid is a roller coaster.”

Before the pandemic, Ms. Anderson practiced martial arts and did without a car, instead walking and taking buses around Ann Arbor, Mich., where she is a medical librarian. Just before contracting Covid-19 in March 2020, she had racked up — oh, she keeps track — 11,409 steps in one day.

It takes me back to college each time I watch it. Such a funny film!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

What an absolutely hilarious film. We watch it every October.

The Blues Brothers. It has action, comedy, cameos, and some of the best music in any film. I will never tire of watching it.

There's a TestFlight available, which adds haptics.

I've been using NextDNS, and it's working quite well for me. It successfully blocks ads and is easy to disable, if I ever need to.
