Just gonna leave these completly unrelated links here:

uBlock Origin (Web):

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

Revanced (Android):

https://github.com/revanced

https://revanced.app

Newpipe (Android):

https://newpipe.net/

SmartTube Next (Android Based Smart TVs):

https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTubeNext

uYou+ (iOS):

https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus

Android (or at least Samsung) also has this.

Maybe check ProtonDB. You can usually find game specific issues and solutions. The page for Metro: Last Light Redux is here.

Are you sure your using the official (propriatary) drivers? Sometimes just installing the official drivers isn't enough and you still might be using the nouvau drivers. Run lspci -v find your gpu and check whats listed as the Kernel driver in use.

Pretty sure that Revanced still has google tracking since its a patched version of the official app.

Also if anyone here intends to use it: Please be careful. The real revenced site (www.revanced.app) has awfull SEO and usualy appears way below fake websites (that sometimes spread malware). The only real websites are revanced.app and the github.

Also you have to patch the app yourself for copyright reasons so don't trust and websites that offer a direct apk of revanced (the real website offers a manager app that you can use to patch the official app)

The Nvidia X Server Settings is quite limited but im pretty sure that it can do color correction, but i noticed that on Pop OS the app needs some extra tinkering to get all the options to show up.

Try running it from the terminal and see if any errors show up. I remember it threw some errors about keys or smth and because off that a lot of options would be missing (including color correction).

Looks like a bug in the bot caused it to not convert the youtube link into piped and instead just post the normal link. This caused it to reply to itself again posting the unmodified youtube link and replying recursivly.

Great idea. Trainning an AI model on twitter totaly didn't go terribly wrong the last time it was tried. /s

What are the advantages of Wayland?

The big one is proper support for diffrent refresh rate monitors and VRR. Also some security improvment and long term support (X11 probably has only a few years before development stops).

What are the disadvantages?

Its still a little buggy in some cases (especialy when using Nvidia hardware) but with an AMD or Intel GPU its more then usable. Some apps don't play nice with Xwayland but its pretty rare.

How's gaming?

I haven't encontered any major issues with games. Some games might need launch parameters but usualy you can just google it and find the answer very quickly. Performance its exactly the same as on X (maybe even slightly better)

What would be the best way to switch?

On your desktop with KDE you can just select "KDE (Wayland)" in your display manager and KDE should just run like normal but with Wayland. On you laptop you'd need to switch to a diffrent WM since i3 dosen't support Wayland. Your best bet would probably be Sway since its compatible with i3 configurations.

Why have you made the switch?

I wanted to check out how well Wayland works and found that it works fine for me, and so i decided to move. Also X was giving me issues with screen tearing and multiple monitors.

The only breakages i have encouterted were caused by nvidia (and there were a lot of those). If we exclude nvidia issues then i have had a very problem free expirience.

Looks like seank got a new job at motorola

ClearURLs is an extention to automaticly remove tracking elements.

Not realy. Youtube for example uses stuff after the "?" to actualy specify the video you want.

Don't forget about Madisons accusations

Take this with a grain of salt since im also not very fammiliar with the lemmy backend, but i think it would be like this:

If lemmy.world defederates from szmer.info all users from szmer (both spammers and normal users) would be able to see and comment on posts made on lemmy.world BUT those comments would only show up for other users on szmer.

For users on other instances (like lemm.ee) the situation would be the same as for users on lemmy.world .

Again im not an expert so this might be wrong (if it is feel free to correct me).

I've made a post on their meta community ( !wspolnota@szmer.info ), hopefully an admin will see it and will take care of the situation.

Yup. Just be careful the only real website is revanced.app and the github. All others are unofficial and can sometimes spread malware
