If they tied a bookwyrm comments section to an ISBN number for example then anybody/site could easily have it embedded to make it a universal tool rather than specifically connected to a piracy site.

Yeah, it’s silly and odd and likely done to push customers towards formats that they have greater control over.

Those epubs that aren’t really epubs, randomly disallowing azw3 files (that they support officially!!!) from being downloaded directly from the kindle’s built in browser and other restrictive behaviour are part of this. That’s why I’m eventually looking to enable epubs on kindle once the people at mobileread find a way to do it. Apparently calibre can be set up to send files too via email so that’s another option.

They’re not though. They only do over the cloud conversions from epub to an amazon proprietary format, that can make the covers or formatting go awry.

I’m envisioning Bookwyrm behaving as a comments section for anna’s archive (possibly all/any decentralised book repositary), but they’d be reviews instead. I’m reminded of discus or facebook that you often get embedded on certain sites.

Why are you so aggressive man?

I don’t generally, but I’ve often wanted to buy some as ornaments. I’ve also bought one to support the author after reading the book online.

I’m not an admin though, one of them can tell you what exactly they’re doing atm, tbh, I don’t know what their plans are either.

This was what happened.

I think they’ve been disabled temporarily because of the child abuse material that got spammed - thankfully, I never saw that stuff, but the mods and admins had to…

FriendlyJordies.

YouTube does change how videos are accessed so the apps need to update every time that happens.

I think this is what has happened.

Grayjay from Louis Rossman’s company is really good - you can even log in with youtube etc. It looks amazing. It looks like a Tachiyomi for Video and Livestreaming!!! You can add other sources.

Also just wrong, since both Jewish Zionists and Nazis were inspired by European colonialism. (Important to note there are Christian Zionists out there, and the original British Upper Class Christian Zionists basically just wanted the Jews out of Europe).

Well, I wasn’t criticising you personally. I was adding some important, interesting and peculiar context.

Don’t you find it wierd that Israelis were more interested in weakening a disciplined left secular party and inviting corrupt terrorists to power instead? I mean obviously, if Palestine ever were to be free, the business class don’t want them to be left secular nor independant.

Personally I don’t think Hamas should be compared to fascists, the term obscures the unique problems in the Middle East between different factions, who fall in and out of favour with the chief meddler in the region (US). But it doesn’t really matter.

Land is what’s at stake, when people are removed from their land or displaced, that constitutes genocide, keeping them under a seperate set of law while favouring Jews: apartheid (literally worse than South Africa, because the whites actually needed low wage workers while Israelis just carry on killing).

All of that comes under settler-colonialism, but certainly nationalism is part of the agenda.

Yeah, that’s why Mossad funded them. If they were Islamist, they’d be easier to control like the Saudis and friends. The PLO were left secularist and led by a man married to a Christian Palestinian.

By the way Israel is more viciously nationalist, fascist and anti-communist.

I’ll add that this conflict is not a religious conflict. Religion adds some heat but it is fundamentally about settler colonialism, theft of land, racism and apartheid.

The former Palestinian leader Arafat’s wife is literally a Palestinian Christian. And Hamas, an Islamist organisation was literally funded by the Mossad against the PLO (Arafat’s organisation). What Israel faced is literally their own fault - it’s blowback like how the US got 911ed by the Saudis they funded.

You can message the mods. Sunaurus is a sound guy.

Interesting question.

Would you mind stating your personal political bias if you have one in regard to this conversation?

I’m only asking because there have been instances where people have tried to limit freedom of speech citing political risk or ‘extremism’ on lemm.ee, so I’m offering you an opportunity to get it all out here.

They even put the Palestinians in ghettos. Wonder what that harks back to?

I only recently stopped using it. And a lot of content on the internet, expecially ones for download use rar part files to split it up and host freely.
