I've tried both storygraph and bookwyrm but couldn't really figure out what they're good for, ended up using openreads, an offline app that's not connected to any service and just lets you keep track of your books for yourself.

It's special in that it's full with antibiotics and growth hormones.
Funny how shit turns out, I remember quite vividly how in 2022 everyone was like "oooh Germany dumping their useless outdated dumb shit on Ukraine just so they sent something too". Today Germany is biting their own ass for discontinuing that system and the military units using it cause we gotta start from scratch buying new shit and building up new military units using it.
Still better than the millionth "hey look someone on reddit mentioned us" post.
Well basically use ad-blockers in your browsers and get patched APKs of apps you use that don't show ads so they don't make money off you even if you still use their services.
Yeah but would the box have slipped without the penguin in it? We need more penguin box experiments I think.
Cool birds, but how is this related to Europe, other than that European settlers used to shoot them?
Great idea, I'm always looking for stuff to watch.
I just watched Borderline, the ~20th remake of The Bridge, this one's set in the border region of Ireland/Northern Ireland. It's not great but not super terrible either.
Then I watched 3 commisaire Dupin movies that are currently available on German public broadcasting streaming sites. Again not exactly blockbusters, I mostly watched them cause I read all the books and I like the nice landscape shots in Bretagne. :)
Basically I'm just watching all the crime series they got on ZDF.de lately.
EDIT: Almost forgot, I was randomly browsing dailymotion.com (French owned YouTube alternative) and found that they apparently aren't super strict about copyright and such shenanigans, stumbled over classic British comedy Saving Grace there and watched it. :)
Nice, I just watched a video today about jailbreaking and gave it a try and it's super easy, took like 10min and is fool proof. Hadn't had time to check out all the benefits though but KOreader seems really nice and just sending epubs to your Kindle w/o Amazon in the middle is nice too.
That would require him to give a single shit about the consequences of his actions, but he'd rather watch his country burn than admit he was wrong about something.
I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that as soon as there is a anything on the website that could (even just in theory) help you make a single cent, it's considered commercial. Any ad banner, an affiliate link or in case of your author partner a link to their books on amazon or wherever is probably enough to be considered commercial. I honestly wouldn't take any risk there, especially as an author. 1 single hater is enough to cost you up to 5k€.
That's one way to see it, but if I came from Reddit looking for an alternative and found that people are just talking about Reddit here I'd see little reason to make the switch. Kinda gives me "jealous ex who can't let go" vibes. Don't know about one or two posts per week, I didn't count but it just feels like a lot more to me.
