    I run a large community, it’s not just a matter of asking people to contact me elsewhere. You can’t uproot a community and bring it somewhere else, and I wouldn’t be able to at all because of matrix’s and revolt’s lack of permissions systems, bots, and other things that are unique to discord. I would welcome a viable alternative. I’ve spent many hours trying to make matrix work with the functionality I need, and it’s simply not possible.

    As far as the link goes, I’m not sure if those rules mean the links themselves must not contain tracking, or that the website on the other end must not contain tracking. You can have youtube links that themselves have no tracking information in it. You can’t just ban links to any site with tracking, you’d just have nothing you can link to.

    Edit: the rule also says “isn’t great”. That’s not the same as “isn’t allowed”. Forcing someone onto a frontend that either doesn’t work for them or is annoying to use I think is worse than letting users redirect themselves using a “tracking filled website” link.

    I tried revolt and… It sucks. None of my friends are on revolt. None of my bots work on revolt. Same with matrix. Matrix is horrible for large communities where discord offers inheritable permissions, forum channels, channels that only some users can see, its just not the same use case at all.

    Also please link the original YouTube link. I don’t like invidious, I have my own preferred frontend. Don’t force people to use the frontend that you like. I use freetube, which is just as private and better for my needs. But I can’t automatically open freetube if you don’t link the original YouTube link. Same with people who use literally any other frontend than invidious.







  • Think of it this way. You’re a seasoned witcher. You know the ins and outs of fighting and of the many monsters and oddities out there. You even spent the time to make the oils.

    It’s just the witcher’s learned instinct to apply the relevant oil when fighting a monster. It’s second nature. You don’t even think about it. It’s how it should be, narratively speaking and this is a narrative driven game where you role play as the witcher. It may not allow for min maxing your strategy, but it makes sense and is convenient.

    Now, you the player do not always remember to apply it or even do it quickly. But the witcher does. He has the muscle memory down. The witcher is always ready. And you are the witcher.









  • It’s actually great. How it works most of the time is you highlight the text box in whatever app, and if proton thinks its a login box (it has like 90% accuracy) it will make a button pop up above the keyboard. Tap it, it opens proton and suggests the account it thinks this app uses. You can tap fill or search for another account. You can then tell it to always use this account for this app, or only this time. Then it goes back to the app you were in automatically and fills it. Next time you fill it there, it doesn’t need to open the app, it will just fill it.

    This requires that you give it screen reading permissions IIRC but you can disable that. If you dont want this feature. Also, if you have auto lock enabled it will ask you for your password or biometric (if enabled) before auto filling or opening automatically.

    I used to use dash lane and I’ve found that proton works a bit better than that on my pixel 7.

    Oh and if you’re using a browser it will not ask “every time for this app” and will try to use the website you’re connected to instead. I think.
