With every passing day I come to regret more and more my ability to read.

I just canceled my youtube premium account after about 7 years of constant membership.

The recent price increase was crap. The service I receive hasn’t improved - actually with their shitty compression even on “4k” videos my enjoyment has really decreased.

But, the big driver were ads. With premium I didn’t see ads, instead I was increasingly bombarded with “words from our sponsor” all over videos.

Anyway, I recommend freetube. For now at least, it actually blocks all ads including sponsor blocks.

I won’t pay a monthly fee to be google’s advertising product.

I would never correct how someone pronounces gif, but…

• Gin is a tasty drink.
• Gerunds are verbal nouns.
• Gentrification is a trend in urban environments.
• Gifs are poorly optimized internet clips with controversy surrounding their pronunciation.

Are you running these in docker? If so read on otherwise this probably won’t help you.

I encountered a similar problem with my Sonarr/Radarr setup and Prolwarr indexer. I would have no results in sonarr/radarr but would have results when searching directly in prowlarr. Ultimately I discovered it was a dns issue.

I had a custom domain setup to access my sonarr/radarr services (eg., sonarr[.]mydomain[.]com). When I’d search through either sonarr or radarr the program would ping Prowlarr, but prowlarr would send the results back to the internal docker ip and not through to my custom domain. So I was seeing no results. My solution was to just access sonarr/radarr with their designated ips and ports rather than my custom domain.

Hope you are able to figure it out.

This type of stuff only punishes paying customers.

Majorly infuriating.

It’s not really your phone if it does things like this. This is Samsung’s phone you pay for their permission to carry for a few years.

True ownership means fully possessing something and deciding how it operates including what software it runs, what data that software can access, and when it can access it. I would not be surprised if those apps had some very invasive default permissions.

“Wants to become a full paranoid but fears the slippery slope.”

I feel personally attacked yet fully approve this characterization.
