There is that one odd #podcast I like which is only available on #youtube, which of course can not be inserted into my podcatcher OOTB.

So I wrote a little #PHP-script which refactors youtube's #rss into podcast rss-feed and fetches audio of video-entries on-demand via #ytdlp. It is not quite finished (for example, video-descriptions as well as channel-images are not fully implemented yet), but it is already functional. I use it with @AntennaPod without any issues.

Not sure, if this is too niche, but in case anyone else has a use for that: https://codeberg.org/jayvii/yt2rss

Very notable talk by @pluralistic about platform decay ("enshittification") and monopolies in tech (and anywhere else, really):

Also, there is a short entry-level blog post about platform decay based on Cory Doctorow's analyses (GER/ENG): https://www.vioffice.de/blog/enshittification/

Looks like Haymarketbooks uses a (very) soft version of ebook DRM: they put the buyer's name and e-mail adress on the second page of the book (after the cover). So the book i just bought there now has a very weird addy.io of mine on the second page

#Linux users, particularly #Debian & #Ubuntu: are you going to switch to #Mozilla's own #Firefox repository? Are you already using their snap or flatpak release? Or are you sticking to the binaries provided by your distro's maintainers?

Throwback to when we did our own #Simit in summer 2022 #vegan

Did a little winter stroll during my lunch break. No public transport here in #Trier today due to the #snow, so that means home office for me today (just like yesterday...).

Is there anyone who uses #alpinelinux #alpine as their main desktop OS and cares to share their experience and pain points?
