Hey- that’s pretty handy. I didn’t know about this. Thank you!

TodaviaTyler ,

You can only save 20 recipes before you have to pay, but you can view as many as you like without saving them. Still, a very nice app IMO.

If you’re using the app on a device, you can open links directly in it. So, if you have a bookmarks folder of recipes, you can just use your browser’s share button -> Open In -> Just the Recipe

I’ll sound like an old man, but I miss the days of going to a website and not having to deal with the SEO junk.

theres also cooked.wiki. tack “cooked.wiki/“ onto the start of a recipe URL and it scrapes and reformats for you

What a sad state of affairs that such a site is even necessary. The internet was supposed to make finding information easier, not some increasingly kafkaesque tug of war.

Thank you for posting that though. It should come in handy.

They’re all headed that way. And Google wants to do it to PCs too.

Safari allows you to install adblockers, btw. Apple is overprotective but this isn’t really their fault.

If you are only concerned about blocking ads thats fine and good. But if your are concerned about privacy one should ditch apple devices altogether. Not to mention freedom.

    How is it worse? If you use google apps it is obiously the same as using apple apps. But otherwise you can remove telemetry, use foss apps and if you are up to it patch a safey net fix to use banking apps.

    A closed source OS of a company that has broken every anti-trust law, thats sells phones with no headphone jack or charger and calls it features and you tell me it does not sell data. Google and Apple are two of the same Monster. But you can not modify you Iphone whatsoever, Jailbreaking an Iphone is a pain in the ass, while in Android isnt a breeze either it is much easier. Android in it self (Android Open Source Project) kicks any iOS in the ass. The problem is that vendors put a thick layer of their version of android. If you get your hands on a phone that is compatible with Lineage Os (very close to (AOSP) you can escape Googles jail for good. And while agree with tou that Google’s Android is bad it ia certainly not any worse than iOS. Do not take my word for it, just ask any developer.

    I read the study, it only compares just one iPhone to one Google Pixel phone and it concludes that Google just sends more accumulated data, not more data type. The reason for that is because DroidGuard send a full device integrity report to google to check things like the bootloader, mounts, if its rooted, if its an emulator, etc… Plus its checking for API hooking like Frida as the study testers where using. Droidguard is a huge obfuscated blob of data so sending loads of obfuscated data keys makes sense. The study concludes that while google calls for more data, the type of data regarding privacy is the same for iOS and Google Android.

    You say that you want your phone for productivity like modifying your phone would be unproductive. Which is funny since your are on Lemmy commenting on a post about “Mildy Infuriating Stuff”. If you do not care for for modification is one thing, but if one wishes to do so one should be able to do it. I’m totally fine with using tools as is, but if one would like to modify it then Apple, Google or whomever should not prevent it, if it voids the warranty or some other contract then so be it. It is your tool not theirs.

    I agree with you that Google are a piece of shit, just that I think the same of Apple. I think that buying a phone for $1500 when there are other options for $400 is insane. From what I have read most developers and regular people who want privacy and freedom try to de-Google their phone, or run a custom ROM, and on their PC they run Debian, Arch or whatever. If that i not an option for you that is fine, but is not for nothing that people are running away from Apple and Google while they are getting their asses sued, it is not for nothing that government institutions around the world are replacing Windows with GNU/Linux.

    Allero ,

    All people said not to mention that recipe is unnecessarily complex.

    Refrigerating the dough for an entire week will make it rather less potent, not more, while most of aroma components accumulation will happen through the first day. Not to mention here you allow it to stay at room temperature for 8 hours first before that, which is an overkill.

    Just keep it at room temperature for 2 hours, let it stay in your fridge for 24 hours and you’re good to go. Or just use the sourdough directly, that’ll do.

    Also, I hope you had at least 3 days (better a week for wild starters) of renewing the sourdough before you put it anywhere. Otherwise, it can have a very unstable and potentially even dangerous microbial composition.

    Where do you suggest to learn more about what you just said?

    Allero ,

    Unfortunately, most of my sources are either in Russian or very academic. This open-access article does a good job of reviewing many academic sources, if you’re interested.

    Out of what’s popular and available in English, I’d strongly recommend Jeffrey Hamelman’s “Bread: A Baker’s Book of Techniques and Recipes”. It contains a lot of useful info on both sourdough and straight dough technology in a way that is home baker-friendly.

    arvere ,

    I found after years that starters work fine if I leave them in the fridge without feeding (sometimes for weeks) and then prepare and feed them overnight or 1 day before using it.

    would you say that’s dangerous?

    Allero ,

    Depends on whether you allowed your starter to go through 2-3 cycles before putting it in the fridge. If yes, you’re all clear. Essentially what protects starters and sourdough from going bad is high acidity that they develop. If you give your starter enough time before preserving it, it will retain most of that acidity, allowing you to just feed it again and then use it. If not, you’re at risk of letting molds and other harmful organisms develop - some of them do grow at fridge temperatures, and if there’s no acidity to stop them, it can be not good.

    Anyway, it’s a good practice not to store sourdough for over a week - just in case.

    arvere ,

    thanks for the knowledge! very useful

    Always welcome! :)

    I low-key find it more infuriating that you’re not using an adblocker…

    theneverfox ,

    I legitimately thought this was satire

    Are things really this bad without an ad blocker these days?

    jj4211 ,

    Yes. For a long time I was trying to “play nice” and not go adblock. I didn’t mind ads that were unobtrusive and figured I’d roll with the ads for the sake of the sites. With things looking like this, and deliberately having ads load a little late and relayout the page to replace a link just as you were about to click in it, and ones that slipped even the pretense and pop up and ad instead of the actual link or button the first time. I would tend to just close such sites in disgust, and told my Google feed to not give me contemt from a couple of the worst owners that recurred.

    The final straw was a site that made the play embedded video function be ads the first two times on clicking it, as well as looking like that. On top of just having to give up on sites more and more.

    I read that majority of Internet users now use ad blockers. That didn’t used to be the case, and the large chunk of sites like this I’m sure is why.

    If ads annoy you as much as they annoy me, get an adblocker. But if there are sites that you use regularly, and block ads on, you might consider contributing to their patreon or whatever.

    GregorGizeh ,

    I recently switched from iPhone to Android, and let me tell you it is ridiculous how much more control you have over your user experience. Adblock alone made it worthwhile.

    Anyway, on iPhone i used to use reader mode to filter all that crap. Though some asshole sites block the function

    Maeve ,

    I used ddg and no ad blocker*, never was an issue until ddg on Android.

    BorgDrone ,

    Anyway, on iPhone i used to use reader mode to filter all that crap.

    Why not just use an adblocker?

    (IPhone doesnt have those)

    BorgDrone ,

    Weird, because the adblocker on my iPhone seems to be working perfectly.

    iPhone has had support for ad blockers since 2015.

    GregorGizeh ,

    How so? All Browsers on ios are just skins for safari. Unless you are counting jailbreaking the device first

    BorgDrone ,

    So? Safari has had built in adblocker support since iOS 9.

    I use AdGuard myself and it works flawlessly.

    GregorGizeh ,

    Just dug around the Safari settings on my (fairly old) device, i cant seem to find any extensions or addons. Though i believe you of course, a quick web search suggests so too. Perhaps my device isnt supporting them, its an old iphone x i think (or 8?)

    BorgDrone ,

    You need to install an ad blocker from the app store. This one works well for me.

    Start the app to select the blocking rulesets

    Enable it in Settings > Safari > Extensions and Settings > Safari > Content blockers

    dubyakay ,

    AdGuard blocks ads just fine on iOS.

    Firefox has a reader mode built in. Works in mobile too. I assume it’s very similar to this, it just cuts out an extra step.

    Emerald ,

    Firefox also has ublock origin support on Android.

    elrik ,

    I use an app called Recipe Keeper. It’s amazing because I just share the page to the app, it extracts the recipe without any nonsense, and now I have a copy for later if I want to reuse it. I literally never bother scrolling recipe pages because of how terrible they all are, and I decide in the app if the recipe is one I want to keep.

    It also bypasses paywalls and registration requirements for many sites because the recipe data is still on the page for crawlers even if it’s not rendered for a normal visitor.

    RidcullyTheBrown ,

    Yeah, that’s fine, but at some point we need to start talking about alternative methods of monetization for websites. On the one hand, compiling a list of recipies on a website and maintaining that website is not easy or cheap and the owners should be able to make money out of it. On the other hand, the user should be able to pay for this comfortably and have a nice experience on the website.

    This ad model doesn’t serve any of the two, business or consumer.

    Maggoty ,

    There are subscription recipe sites.

    RidcullyTheBrown ,

    Yes, but paid content is not the norm and the reason for that is that blatant advertising and shoving malaware down people’s throats on grandma’s recipe website is not only legal, it’s a predictable business model.

    RedAggroBest ,

    You’re suggesting subscriptions… On Lemmy…? Good luck lol.

    elrik ,

    Sure, I agree.

    Unfortunately, no such solution currently exists or has been widely adopted.

    kaffiene ,

    The Internet was just fine before everything had to be monetised

    This is actually one of the biggest reasons why I prefer Android over iOS. In the case where I am forced to use iOS, I use Brave because it comes with an adblocker. Not perfect, but it’s the best of a crappy situation.

    BorgDrone ,

    Or just install an adblocker and use Safari.

    SuperSpruce ,

    I can do that, but the adblocker (either Brave’s adblocker or AdBlock Plus) is much worse than uBlock origin because it only blocks ads, not other crap like autoplaying videos, trackers, and malware.

    BorgDrone ,

    Safari blocks trackers by default.

    SuperSpruce ,

    Guess I partially stand corrected. Still doesn’t block the infuriating and irrelevant autoplaying videos.

    dubyakay ,

    Or just use AdGuard.

    IamAnonymous ,

    I use an iPhone and don’t see any ads and block trackers / popups. Lots of ways to block them.
