It's definitely a TOS violation (as is using any kind of VPN to access their content apparently) but I never heard of anyone having trouble with it. Either way, I moved off of other Google services completely, so it would not be a huge loss for me at least.

Yep! I left another reply with more details. I'm using Turkey and it's super easy to set up.

Argentina or (in my case) Turkey seem to be popular options. You only need to use a VPN when setting up the first payment. Your credit card can be from your home country, no checks at all. After that it'll just work and you won't need a VPN anymore.

You can get Premium cheaper through other countries. It’s super simple. I only pay about 1€ / month and that feels about right to me unlike the 15€ or something I’d have to pay otherwise.

This is incorrect but I like it more

It was basically about posting a very popular but controversial sounding opinion. The whole premise of this sub did not work well with the algorithm

Haha well that’s a bit sad. You might wanna give Affinity Photo a shot. The interface is miles ahead of photoshop but functionality is not quite there yet

Nah don’t even pirate it. There are really good alternatives for anything but After Effects

Nice, this made me check for the N64 Switch controller again and it finally seems to be available again in Europe.

And they should be forced to document / open their file formats. They’re way too big already and one of the shittiest anti-consumer companies out there.

That’s super nice of you but in the end it just adds value to a company that doesn’t give a shit about its creators.

I don’t think this happens in every browser. I just tried it in Brave on Windows and it doesn’t happen there.

The screen capture in this post was taken in Arc on macOS.

Power Delete Suite can alter or delete your previous comments and posts and after that you can remove your account

That’s what I’m doing too but it’s not necessarily ideal on desktop. There’s also https://alexandrite.app/ for a dedicated desktop experience

To find a good instance, you can just check this site: https://join-lemmy.org/instances - I'd suggest reading the description of an instance and then browsing the home feed of that instance to see if you like it.

For communities, you can just switch your feed to "all" and browse through posts and see what interests you, then follow that community it was posted in.

Depends on what you’re after but I recently switched to Protonmail and they allow you to use your own domain and set up a catch-all. If you like what they’re offering in terms of encryption and all, it might a great solution for you.

Is there a reason Android studio is so fucking resource hungry? XCode is running way better with a simulator open and the other Jetbrain IDEs are just fine as well and so is any other virtualization. It’s just Android Studio that sucks somehow.

Almost all of these applied to the last job I left, so I guess it's pretty spot on.

Already running Plex, though to be fair - it’s not like they can escape enshittifaction either. I will probably switch over to jellyfin at some point.

This reminded me that I'm paying for Youtube Premium and yet the platform is incredibly user-hostile even to paying customers. Fuck them.
