@jeena I used gPodder (Yes, it's an app as well). But I didn't really check the sync capabilities, apart from the played/unplayed episodes and syncing subscriptions. I also tend to listen to each episode from start to end, so syncing timestamps or something wasn't really a priority for me.
The website was also great because you could choose which podcast to sync where.
@jeena yea, I'm using AntennaPod myself and I used it since the website was still available. I'd like to sync the podcast on desktop as well, but there's nothing I can use to sync it with (okay, there is the option to use Nextcloud, but I have no self-hosted instance)
@ReversalHatchery I was thinking about that. I previously worked for a company that did the exact same thing, if I recall correctly (this was years ago, so I'm not sure whether they still do it). But I wanted to see if anyone has any more knowledge about this thing than me. If that's what happens, I guess I'll be fine simply keeping these contacts on Google and saving anything on GeneralSync going forward (or any other such alternative service).
@utzer It currently does, afaik. That's why I turned this off long ago, even though I found the feature quite useful. I might use it again in the future though if there will be credible signs this will no longer be the case.
For now, there are plenty of self-tracking apps if you're into this. I personally use Transistor when I am going on hikes or various trips. It's great if you want to have a journal of places with gpx tracks.
@alyaza Good luck with your project, and good luck with the European names I guess.
We used to have this nasty habit of frequently swapping entire regions between ourselves for hundreds of years, colonizing each-other and doing away with each other's historical and ethnical legacy each time the land changed hands. It took us 2 World Wars to chill out a bit.
@alyaza I'm busy with stuff and trying to get some proper sleep in the process. The thing I am the happiest about is that trams started running on my street again after months of being suspended for some pipe works. I finally have a more convenient way of getting to and from work without spending so much time in traffic again.
I am also due to clean up my house, but I never get time for that. I did manage to go through my agenda in my good old Yahoo Mail and clean up there. I wanted to do away with Davx5 on my phone since I have no account to my phone address book with apart from Google and the recently re-discovered GeneralSync, and because I previously removed my Yahoo! account from there (it was just not syncing anymore), but I tried logging in again and it somehow works. Cleanup is not entirely done yet, however.
Apart from that, we organized a "Secret Santa" at work, and now I finally have a nice pair of gloves that can be used with a touch screen. Yayy for technology, I guess. 😁
@ninjan Clearly not, lol, not at all. The guy is not a newcomer in politics, either. He's previously served as a prime-minister until 2014 and then has been the President of the European Council, so I'm not seeing him go anywhere close to Donald Trump, unless I'm missing something.
@bermuda When Snapchat was popular, I had a shitty phone that I could not even upgrade WhatsApp on. This lasted for a few months to a year. Insta was already quite popular beforehand, but since I had no smartphone, I got late to the game. So my account was inactive for quite a bunch of time. Later I got in college and got a Huawei P8 Lite, and I used it for a while, with my friends, but more for the camera effects. We weren't really chatting there. But there were more people posting stories there indeed. Now almost everyone is on Instagram.
@lemann Thank you! Yea, many of my contact's emails are probably on Yahoo instead, so it's not that much of a biggie. I know nobody using Tuta or Proton or whatever. But hey, less data for Google is still less data for Google.
@Greenpepper copyed the link to the original post and pasted it in my search bar. Doesn't fetch the post. Seems not to be working with Friendica yet...
Edit: I managed to fetch the post, but only after fetching his profile. Here's (approximately) how you can view it in my node:
@Ozymandias1688 still cannot go into space 😢
