Tachiyomi is excellent for comics even though it might seem like (and originally is?) a manga reader.

I use it with the Komga plugin to read comics from my self-hosted Komga server.

At least in Finland it's normal for some employers to offer to pay for your phone and plan and you can use the same phone all the time for both, personal stuff and work.

This 100%! I switched over years ago and have been very happy using it on my desktop computer, laptop as well as my phones.

With only around 100k users and most people using anonymous usernames that cannot be connected to their identity it would hardly be worth the effort, time or money.

Yeah, the audiobooks I have tried haven't had the best narrators. Just too bland ones I guess.

 

After listening to a few clips of The Silmarillion narrated by Andy Serkis, I am interested in seeing if I could actually get used to listening to audiobooks. I usually can't focus enough on audio alone to keep up with a book but now I'm thinking it might be more of a narration quality thing than anything else.

What are your suggestions for other audiobooks with great or at least similar narration as this new version of The Silmarillion?

The Wheel of Time and Mistborn (I have only read the first trilogy so far) are definitely up there for me.

Done. Everybody join me!

Been using them for years and aside from a single domain at Google (rip) I have been using them exclusively for the last couple of years. Hard to beat the prices and the support is top-notch.

And who doesn't love a cute little piggie!

After going through the painful experience of trying to export my hundreds of saved Reddit posts in a smart manner a couple of weeks ago I would definitely love to avoid the same with Lemmy. This certainly looks like something that can help me with that.

Thanks for your hard work!

The devs were testing out FACEIT anti-cheat (which won't work on Linux and also has a bad reputation as a rootkit) a while back but decided to revert back to EAC (which works on Linux) "at this time". If they do decide to implement FACEIT later on, that would lock all Linux gamers out of the official servers. Apparently the community servers might still run EAC after that and therefore possibly be usable with Linux though.

So it works on Linux for now but there's no certainty about the future until the devs unveil their plans further.
