I'm reading Foucault's Pendulum and The Name of the Rose by him.

Umberto Eco is amazing! I'm currently reading two of his books. He's very intelligent.

 

Hello comrades and friends! I've gotten back into reading and I've been buying books about fascism, because of the political climate. I've picked up a few books, like

It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis Cradles of the Reich by Jen Coburn The Plot Against America by Philip Roth

I know they aren't strictly anarchist, but they do talk about fascism/authoritarianism. Could you recommend me some books about anarchism as well as more books on fascism? I prefer fiction, but will read non-fiction as well.

I was gonna suggest Mastodon, or maybe Movim? I know there are non-fediverse websites, like Plurk but that might not be what you're looking for.

I'm on windows, unfortunately.

 

Hi. I'm looking for a decent replacement to Apple Music. It'd be great if it had a streaming service/store that I can buy or stream music from, as well as be able to play local music on my computer. Are there any good alternatives/replacements?

I know people aren't a fan of Arc browser, but I was using it last night, and if you have a video playing and switch to a different tab, it goes into picture in picture, so you can browse one website and the video is in a tiny box in the corner. That's pretty cool imo.

 

Hello! I just learned/found out you can tile tabs or split the screen in two browsers. The first browser is Vivaldi, which has tab tiling. You hold down the control button, select which tabs you'd like to tile, then right click and select tile tabs.

The second browser, that can do this (afaik, maybe there's more browsers) is Zen browser! I was not aware Zen could do this, until I did the same method in Zen as in Vivaldi. Just hold down control and select the tabs, and you can then split the tabs. Zen has the ability to split multiple tabs. Vivaldi probably does, but I only needed two. Anyways, give Zen and Vivaldi a try for tab tiling.

Do you use tab tiling? What's your opinion?

Lemmy after reddit banned me. I've been getting into Bluesky, too. Sometimes Mastodon. I'm open to other suggestions, too.

 

Hi. Zen Browser just released with version 1.16. It has a new feature called Zen Glance, which is pretty cool. You can preview links in the same window as if you opened that link. Press ctrl-click on a link and a window pops up showing you the link/page. You don't have to leave the page you're on either! I clicked on a video link with Zen Glance, and honestly, you could watch a video in Zen Glance while you're on the search page of youtube. I'm not sure of any other browser doing this. It's very awesome in my opinion. Anyways, that's all I wanted to share.

So I figured out why VSCodium wasn't working, and it was because one of my firewalls hadn't allowed VSCodium through yet, but now I allowed it on my firewall, and it works now.

Zed hasn't come out for Windows yet...

 

Hi! I'm having a bit of a struggle with VSCodium. I'm not sure what I did, but I can't access the liveserver in my browser, and the extensions won't load to download them. I keep getting "Error fetching extensions. Failed to fetch" So that's been frustrating. Are there any fixes? What's a good VSCodium alternative I could try?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

That would be much appreciated!

 

Hi comrades! I'm wondering if there are any communist breadtubers out there? My knowledge on who is in the breadosphere is a bit limited. Also, is there anyone on reddit that could take videos from r/breadtube and post them here?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

I'm excited for this to come out, as it is built on its own code. I wish it would be released earlier than 2026, though. Are there any beta or even alpha versions to try on windows?

Not particularly, Arc is based on Chrome, and has some Google features/settings. I agree about Zen, it's also one of my favorite browsers. Zen and (hopefully!) SSuite Netsurfer.

 

Hi! I'm pretty excited about this. I just downloaded Netsurfer browser, and I have tried it in the past, but it was pretty barebones when I did. Recently, it's been improving very nicely. It now has adblock and it now has bookmarks! I'm thrilled that it finally has bookmarks. I might just use it as my main temporarily now. Has anyone given Netsurfer a try?

 

Hi comrades! I've been slowly getting into country music lately. I like Sierra Ferrell, Margo Price, Sharon Van Etten, Drive By Truckers, etc. Im curious if there are any country/folk singers that support Palestine or have called for a ceasefire?

 

Hi, comrades! First off, I'd like to say I'm happy to have found this community. One of the subreddits I perused was RABM, so I'm glad lemmy has one that's similar. I would look for suggestions on music to buy from that subreddit. Anyways, does crust/anarchopunk count since the politics are similar?

 

Hello! I've posted about the Arc browser before, and the browser just got an update. I went into settings to see if any of the google stuff was there, and it mustve got removed, because they revamped the whole thing. You can customize your browser card now, and edit your arc account. I'm very glad they removed (or hid) most of the google stuff.

 

Hi! I'm learning web development from a video and in the video, the guy installs an addon for chrome called HTML5 Outliner. I'm either using Librewolf or Ungoogled Chromium as my main browser, and I can't seem to install the addon in Ungoogled Chromium. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a setting in Ungoogled Chromium that I need to enable? Anyone know how to bypass this and install the addon?

 

Hello! I just downloaded and installed Pulsar. Most editors like Pycharm, or VSCodium have a built in terminal you can run in the window you are editing. Is there a plugin that will install a built-in terminal or something similar so I can edit in Pulsar and not have to run windows terminal
