@pkjqpg1h Yes, indeed that’s an issue with the Firefox app, there’s nothing I can do on the side of the extension with this, as it acts as if you cancelled the download.

However, a workaround is, load the website and the add-on in a non-private window and make sure “Media cache” is enabled in the add-on settungs.

Once the download is over and the popup to download flashes and disappears, start downloading again (with the same quality as before if asked).

The download should only take a few seconds as the add-on caches the video/audio data so it can do faster downloads.

@Hominine Yeah!!

@DarkPassenger Awesome! Well, if the website you are downloading from does not work, tell me and I’ll try to figure it out!

@treatcover Well, you can run Mistral locally but my laptop is not powerful enough haha
Also, yeah, a small copy paste goes a long way!

@ageedizzle I plan on using https://chat.mistral.ai/ since it’s a completely different model that is open source and based in france so regulated by GDPR. If you still use ChatGPT but from somewhere else, it kinda defeats the purpose to switch away from it, in my opinion.

@muusemuuse There are many comment but only a few links so check it out :

For PC, yt-dlp is by far the best ( https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp)

There are many wrapper/UIs you can install, like https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp.

For Android, I’ve seen people mention NewPipe https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe

But personally I think Seal is the best as it allows to download entire playlists. https://github.com/JunkFood02/Seal

@Willdrick @BrianTheeBiscuiteer there’s a cool video on the subject at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5FbRfwMEuo

Basically you have to use a tool to delete your messages and then send a GDPR request to discord before deleting your account, otherwise your messages will stay and will appear as sent from “Deleted user” with no way to delete them.

@CircaV @Europellinore Personally, I’m using Mastodon over BlueSky and I wonder why it has not got the same attention as bluesky :
- It’s decentralized and you can host your own, to help with data safety
- This also prevents it from turnuing into another twitter since if that happens, you can just host an old version or fork the code and continue updating it
- It’s compatible with activitypub, so you can post and reply on Lemmy from a Mastodon account, like this one!

But yeah, it’s pretty annoying to switch from one platform to another since your followers are not likely to do the same. Maybe that’s why?

@MasterBlaster If the company is in the EU, and they use AI to do facial recignition, that is actually illegal! See https://natlawreview.com/article/use-ai-recruitment-and-hiring-considerations-eu-and-us-companies

@33550336 Thanks! I’m still figuring some things out as I go but it’s just some habits I don’t have!

@FreddiesLantern Aside from the hiccups I mentionned, it works great! I was surprised my backlit keyboard even works, but I think that’s managed by my bios.

I’ll keep on using it, but I’m trying to document my struggles because if Linux is aiming to be a good alternative to Windows computers getting to end of life, then some set up wouldn’t be done by most people and just assume it’s broken and maybe switch back to Windows where it “Just works”.

Maybe this can help with the onboarding experience!

@EtnaAtsume Mint install or not, you should regularly back up your data in an external drive!

Yes, installing mint on the Windows partition deletes Windows and all your files so make a backup or put them on another partition!

But without deleting your data, you can always boot from an USB stick and try thingd around in this environnement!

@cupcakezealot It’s
neofetch

Try it! :blobcathug:

@Creat My laptop is weird, because it has a media key for screenshoting an area (which is basically a key that doed Windows Shift S which isn’t recognized by default on Mint), and a print screen key which works fine. And to screenshot an area, on Mint it’s ctrl+print screen

@Nyadia Figured it out and it worked! Strange that this isn’t the default.

@scott It’s a mastodon post, lemmy federates it and takes the start of the post as a title. Can’t do much about that :blobcatcoffee:

@cmnybo I figured it out, but I think it’s still not very intuitive when you’re used to it working by default!

@eatCasserole I have found a software called Diodon, and seems to work fine!
You need to set a custom shortcut in your settings but besides that it does the job

@hard_zero1 Thanks so much! It worked! :blobcatheart:
