Hey @actuallyautistic admins, do better. I know this is mostly unmonitored but please defederate as needed for hate instances. Report hate instances too so it's on more blacklists.
@invidious Unfortunately my phone is outdated for SwiftUI and I don't have access to Xcode or ability to load developer apps. Not to mention it does not solve my current problem of a reliable 24/7 livestream viewer that doesn't cut off after 6 hours. yt-dlp I have already gone through 2 ISP IP bans viewing 24/7 livestreams.
All @invidious servers are either 500 erroring out on their VPN based tunnels, or not loading videos. No matter what connection I use I can't watch anything. I have no hope for the future. Even Grayjay is not immune from IP bans.
@invidious every single invidious instance has implemented CAPTCHAs, so every single one that's up to date will have the iOS failing to load videos bug. I'd call that a critical/urgent bug. Unjailbroken iOS devices only have invidious as the option for a truly open source way for a privacy friendly frontend to YT. All other extensions upsell YT features.
@actuallyautistic If you're wondering why donations are not being processed, GoFundMe processes Canadian Dollar donations in Ireland, and all the banks there are closed today for St. Patrick's day.
As a result, here is a Kofi link but I've had donations arbitrarily held by PayPal before using Kofi thanks to my recent ID changes. It's here regardless if it means getting money faster: https://ko-fi.com/jackvancouver/goal?g=0
I have just run out of food with no indications any of my donations are being processed today, so I've become slightly unstable. Last night I was a buzzkill in social situations. #aspie#aspielife
@actuallyautistic received more confirmations friends that used to stick up for me want nothing to do with me as my life remains in shambles, and they want no part of negativity. I therefore have no friends to stick up for me in this time of need. #aspie#aspielife
@actuallyautistic Thank you so much for the $400 donation! Hopefully it processes in time so that I am able to pay the repair shop ASAP. The shop is closed on sundays so if the money arrives monday, that is the best case scenario.
@actuallyautistic a reminder that I am on disability payments and fixed income. I am literally unable to gain more pay to resolve my issues because I am unfit to work, and my government support circles are trying to bring me down so I remain helpless. #aspie#aspielife
I am at $0 again because the screen broke during my latest repair.
There's a "for parts" phone with genuine parts ready for me, but they need $360 so I can have my phone back. (My phone and SIM card are being withheld at the repair shop) Check day can only cover $290 of that because of my internet and storage locker costs. Plus I do not have money for food to survive to Wednesday... AND a different repair shop wants $130 to finish a repair, and my friend is keeping a SSD I bought as collateral until I pay him.
This means I need $400 now to make do with what's just happened. Anything extra will go towards food, the other repair shop, and my friend withholding the SSD. I'm the most insecure and vulnerable I've ever been this year and I need that last little bit to get to the finish line of a working phone.
@actuallyautistic as another reminder, I have lost my entire friend circle locally to gossip and rumors, and the only friend that remains has declared they are in massive debt. Hence why this friend has withheld a SSD I bought by asking me to pay again for it because they kept it as collateral. #aspie#aspielife
@actuallyautistic ICYMI, my phone is currently being held at a repair shop pending a repair unless I get $400 asap. I have to respond to my family doctor and my mental health team who are trying to reach me and they cannot reach me. They will not give back the SIM card unless the repair is paid for. I also do not have money for food and it looks like I will not be able to heat any food at home all day today (landlord me time) so I will need money for eating out. All my balances are at $0. #aspie#aspielife#emergencyaid#emergencyaidneeded#emergencyaidneededasap#emergencyaidneededrightnow#mutualaid#MutualAidRequest#mutualaidneeded
@actuallyautistic just encountered the roommate that wishes I was dead. He wants me to purchase him the food "I stole" now. Without money, I can't respond to him because the landlords have added their false care lies to paint me as more of a devil than him. #aspie#aspielife
@gamingonlinux while not a forced ad, Unigine Heaven and/or Valley both have a "Oil Rush" ad in the launcher. That's where I want to know if launcher ads are likely their way to compensate the gameplay halts no longer being allowed. We all know what happened to Skype.
