I wondered the same thing.
It’s definitely the best one after Sync.

Connect is awesome. The fact that it is only a month old and that good is honestly mind blowing and it’s totally free with no premium options or ads. I have really enjoyed using it up until now.
I’m a previous Sync for Reddit user though and I do love the app. The customisation options are insane. I can literally make it look and act exactly how I want, even down to things like specifying download locations for pictures, whether they go into subfolders by community, whether pictures show up as media files in your gallery or are hidden, the spacing between comment lines, etc… It’s also customisable by account if you have multiple accounts, so all of this can be different or the same for each account.
So once you spend some time setting it up, it almost feels like you’ve designed your own interface/app.
It’s hard to beat.
Nice. I’ll participate whenever I have some time.
Thanks, I’ll check it out.
In terms of blocking ads, I run Adguard (lifetime sub), which blocks ads system wide - even in apps.
Synced bookmarks could be good though.
I have been with idrive since 2009. At the time they were the only ones that allowed backups of network attached storage on their cheaper personal plans. Everyone else saw that as an “enterprise” feature which required a business plan. Which was bullsh*t, because lots of home NAS devices were being sold.
Anyway, I haven’t done a recent comparison of services, but I remain happy with idrive.
Thesedays I no longer backup on a computer with a mapped drive, but directly from my NAS which runs the idrive software.
I had a catastrophic dual drive failure a few years ago, one failed and another failed during the raid rebuild! I was able to restore about 1tb of data and didn’t lose anything important.
They also offer backup and restore by shipping a drive to you if you want to avoid the huge initial backup or a total restore, but I haven’t used that feature.
They do also have a mobile app, but last time I tried it, it wasn’t great.
Wait - this changes everything!!
On desktop it’s mainly Firefox, on mobile it’s mainly the stock Samsung browser.
But I’ve started using Edge a bit more on mobile lately since I discovered its reading mode, which makes for a very clean readable format to read articles.
Nah, 3-6 days max.
How are you doing that?
Do you mean just manually copying a link, switching into the Mastodon app and pasting it in, or is there a better method?
Anna’s Archive?
I only found out about it on here recently and I’ve been able to find a couple of quite obscure titles on there.
Including one that had never been released as an ebook Seems someone has scanned it.
OK, so I’ve known a number of Scottish people and I’ve been there a couple of times and generally had no issue understanding them.
However, when working in London years ago, I had to talk to someone based in Scotland on the phone and her accent was just insane.
Honestly it was exactly like this post, she’d say something, I’d say sorry what and this repeated 3 times then…we both burst out laughing. The most insane Scottish accent ever!
Yeah exactly.
I’ve stayed in apartments a lot when travelling, but I’ve never used AirBNB. Not because of any reason against them, but I’ve just tended to use other online services/sites.
A screenshot of not much…and I’m excited! 🥳
Me too. I kept changing between Connect, Jerboa and LiftOff.
But over the last couple of days Connect has pulled into the lead and I find myself sticking with it at the moment.
Waiting for Sync though!
Here it is:
Excellent!
Really excited to see this. Signed up to your Patreon, hopefully a few others have too.
Thank you for your hard work getting this working. It’s much appreciated :)
Why?
Posts should have the ability to be promoted or buried, to help highlight interesting stuff.
But why people? I don’t get it. Isn’t this place more like a forum than a social network?
Leave that crap for Facebook etc…
Yep, am enjoying Connect while I wait for Sync.
This.
I use Adguard, if a site blocks me for it, then it goes on a black list of “never visit” sites.
In a few cases, if I use and like/support a specific site a lot and that site is ad supported with no other ad-free option, then I white list it.
But to read the odd crappy article? No I’m not disabling my ad blocker.
