• BeatSyncSolution: Origin Story

  The classic yt-dlp was how this all began, to be honest this one still confuses me but well figure that out in development. - Source: dev.to / 11 days ago

• Open Source YouTube to MP3 Downloader

  This seems to be a pretty straightforward GUI wrapper around https://github.com/Tyrrrz/YoutubeExplode (see https://github.com/PackJC/YoutubeToMP3/blob/main/Form1.cs is a well-maintained public domain alternative. - Source: Hacker News / 16 days ago

• Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads

  For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV. (Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.) For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client. From the... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Google fights Invidious (a privacy YouTube Front end)

  Yep. yt-dlp and youtube-dl https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp Will also start to feel the impact.

• "I'm in this picture and I don't like it"

  OsmAnd works for me. I am looking to get off Google, so I try to retire anything that is not on F-Droid. OsmAnd is a independent project ( osmand.net ) that uses the data you can also access under www.openstreetmap.org . The App is not perfect and sometimes it calls for the wrong action, for example when a road is just taking a steep turn it might ask for you to turn onto a different road which is actually the...

• WiFi without internet on a Southwest flight

  When I am on a flight and the flight does not provide the flight information, I am using the OsmAnd, https://osmand.net/, to monitor the flight altitude, speed and direction. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Improving your online privacy: An update

  Regarding usage of OpenStreetMap over Google Maps - assuming we're talking mobile usage - you might give OSMAnd[0] a try. I've been using it exclusively on a Pixel loaded with GrapheneOS for a few months now. I would never consider going back to GMaps and I don't feel that I've lost anything either.
