Post some of your favourite software/service/alternatives. For example, I’ve started using Red Reader now that Reddit requires me to be signed in in order to display entire threads.
Also, I got youtube-dl working on termux, an android app, via ‘pkg install python’ and then ‘pip install youtube-dl’.
What are your favourites and recent discoveries? Even if you think people have already heard of it, there’s a possibility they haven’t.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scroll_anywhere/ - avoid stiff and hard to hold center mouse buttons, use right click to scroll instead.
https://github.com/Zettlr/Zettlr/ - beautiful markdown writer and note taker.
https://tixati.com/ - ugly lightweight advanced torrent client
https://potplayer.daum.net - beautiful VLC alternative
https://acestreamsearch.net/en/?q=sky - many ace streams are held behind walled gardens but they are publicly searchable, if you know what the title will be for your live streaming event (sometimes the title is obfuscated by the streamer).
https://www.sodaplayer.com/ - simply plays live ace streams.
https://torrent-gql.analogic.al/?variables={ "query"%3A "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" }&query=query(%24query%3A String!) { torrents(query%3A %24query%2C providers%3A [EXTRATORRENT%2C PIRATEBAY%2C TORRENTZ2]) { title seeds desc peers size magnet } }
Raw graphql api for searching popular torrent sites, it’s without a gui so it will likely never be blocked.
All cool stuff! This is the first time I’ve ever heard of an ace stream before.
They aren’t perfect, I prefer web video as it’s better with dynamic bitstreams.
I actually don’t know how live acestreams work best but they often they lag (if they are unpopular streams) and many are of bad quality or bloated, use a lot of bandwidth because transcoding live stuff is hard. Still is a good backup option in a pinch.
Also beware acestreams rely on users uploading (so use at your own risk)
I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks!
