Okay, that's very cool. I'm into self-hosting and will look into running FreshRSS to parse sites and feed me articles. Much appreciated!

I've been doing the same. The issue is finding high quality feeds with full articles. Most are just a snippet of the article with a link saying "read the full story at..." (The Verge, PBS, The Guardian). Others are even worse and just link directly to the shit-laden website (Ars Technica). The best quality news feeds I've found are Techdirt and The Intercept. Would you care to share some good RSS news feeds you've found?

Volkswagen now blocks grapheneOS
Reply in thread
Judging by the error message: the map relies on Google Play Services (which, you can definitely install and run on GOS through the Graphene "App Store"). But installing Google bullshit kinda defeats the whole point of running Graphene. You could also revert to an older version of the app (if you had no issue seeing satellite imagery prior to the update).

If you're still skipping, take the next step and start blocking.

What’s a conspiracy theory you no longer call a theory?
Plastic recycling is a PR campaign to relieve our guilt about single-use plastics and keep consuming. In reality: 95% of plastic is trashed. The oil and gas industry knew widespread plastic recycling was never feasible back in the 70's but keep up the narrative.

Its not their fault. They were just born with excessively small genitals.

Close, but the best estimates are there are 470 million guns in US civilian hands. With a population of 338 million, you're looking at approximately 1.4 guns per person in this crazy land of free-dumb. 😂

Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder
Reply in thread
Oh, you know. Just 3.6 billion fucking people (73% of web users). But definitely not you and me. I've been on Firefox since 1.0 (2004) and switched to Librewolf a few years ago when Mozilla lost it.

YouTube’s new anti-adblock measures
I finally had to update (19.16.39 --> 20.12.46) and repatch my YouTube on Android via ReVanced. I'll probably need to do that again in 6 months. I use uBlock Origin and LibreWolf on PC and SmartTube on my TV. I hope Google understands I won't be watching YouTube with ads.

Yo, fire fox what the fuck?
I'm gonna go ahead and be the guy who recommends LibreWolf. Mozilla has been taking Firefox in an especially fund-seeking direction in recent years (and this fork avoids a lot of it). I haven't seen PWAs appear in LibreWolf as of now.

Questions swirl over Ohio billionaire Les Wexner’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein
Reply in thread
Its almost like Epstein's PR team led by Dan Klores and Howard Rubenstein crafted QAnon. They knew the truth would eventually come out and wanted to paint Trump as secretly fighting the global sex trafficking ring (instead of actively participating).

Cellphones went from cool form factor mini computers to mandatory personal identification and spying devices

I just got a huge nostalgia blast of the days running Cydia on my iPod Touch 3rd gen. I'd customize Winterboard, install emulators, pirate games. The little, touchscreen computer in my pocket truly felt like it was mine! Then I got a Nexus tablet, hopped on early Android, and felt even more free to use my device how I wanted. Fast forward to today and I feel like some sort of criminal running Graphene and just hoping F-Droid repos exist after Google locks down Android. Tech is way less DIY and hella dystopian, as we move into a full surveillance state and compulsive identity verification. But I digress. Now I'm just rambling and depressed about the future of tech. Thanks OP. 🥲

The FBI Redacted Trump’s Name in the Epstein Files
Reply in thread
Yep, that's the kid Trump raped. We can confirm Virginia Giuffre. He also flew many times on the Lolita Express (so you know convicted felon Trump has been raping kids for a while).

Local DNS on Pihole
I just run teleporter on my primary and manually upload that backup to my secondary. My blocklists and local DNS dont change much, so its not a big concern of mine.
Nebula-Sync and Orbital-Sync may be of interest to you. It seems like you want to automate the syncing.

Do you mean reserve currency status? There's no changing the fact the dollar is a fiat currency.
