Holy fuck this looks useful, thanks for sharing!

I thought that by its own description “free online chess” was exclusively an online chess app, thanks for the suggestion.

Droidfish looks great, I don’t understand how I didn’t find the app before, thanks.

Friendly reminder that you can still access the site via Tor, simply access the official GoG-Games Mastodon account and copy the address where it says ‘Tor’, now copy the address into the Tor browser and that’s it!

Remember that you should not download the file through Tor, you should simply obtain the file address to download it through your regular browser.

Sometimes it takes a long time to connect or gives a connection timed out error, but at least for me it eventually works after a while.

Edit: Stop upvoting me, it seems they not only deleted the link to the tor site, but when you try to access it, it tells you that the site doesn’t exist anymore. :(

I usually use mp4 but what format do you suggest?

Xirup OP , 6 months ago

Ups my bad, you’re right, I meant mp3.

I would give you an award if I could, so take a emoji: 🏆️

Just install Python with pkg and then

python3 -m pip install --upgrade yt-dlp

What do you mean by special on screen keyboard? I usually just zoom out the screen (making a pinching gesture with the fingers) and that works for me.

Xirup OP , 6 months ago

I think the same, I doubt that Termux will ever replace the comfort of a terminal on a laptop or desktop PC, but for certain occasions it is very useful, like avoiding downloading full apps when I can install only one package that does the same thing, in the case of yt-dlp.

Xirup OP , 6 months ago

No but I haven’t tried either, I guess it’s not possible?

Fucking thanks! I don’t understand at all why but you’re right! Simplelogin domain is not detected as ‘invalid’ and I can create an account without any problem!

Edit: I’m a free user.

Xirup OP , 6 months ago

From the beginning I assumed it wasn’t possible but maybe someone knew something I didn’t, like those pages (not sure if they still work) to download Steam Workshop files without a Steam account or without having the game at all. Or maybe there was a Kemono(dot)party style repository where users who have access to paid Patreons voluntarily upload the paid files there for everyone to enjoy.

For future reference, you can create an account with a Simplelogin forward mail!

Xirup OP , 6 months ago (edited 6 months ago)

You are absolutely right and I had not considered your second point, after all it is a free site and it would be hosting free stuff stupidly, but it wouldn’t necessarily have to be a site hosted by someone, it could simply be a torrent index (although that would have to be hosted by someone else, but you won’t need exabytes of space or unlimited bandwidth) where the users themselves share and host the file, it would make sense? probably not at all, but on torrent you will find those who share Ubuntu ISOs and music downloaded directly from Youtube, maybe someone did something like that with NexusMods.

I don’t have the slightest problem creating accounts, my problem comes when I create an account and my inbox starts to fill up with spam, and it doesn’t matter if I delete my account, they already have my email in their database, which they are probably going to share or sell to third parties. I’m not saying it’s the case of Nexusmods, honestly it’s the first time I use it in my life, but there are millions of websites, how can I trust one or the other? Simple, I don’t, that’s why I use temporary emails and email maskers.

I love when people assume things beforehand.
