  • Oh shit!

    This post actually made me look for a solution and I found one!
    Solution to opening tiktoks without using tiktok app or site, not how to stop ur friends sending u garbage.

    It made me think… mpv player can play basically any link you throw at it (thanks to yt-dlp), and we also have mpv on Android, so why can’t we do it there as well. And sure enough, I found this https://github.com/mpv-android/mpv-android/pull/58, someone baked yt-dlp in mpv for Android, making it possible to open link in mpv (share >> play in mpv)

    It works for instagram and all other shit.


  • Take those graphs with a grain of salt. There are several websites that track activity and all of them show different results. I also assume that almost every lemmy update affects these graphs, since things did break quite a few times.

     

    This is from the official lemmy site join-lemmy. It says 820 Servers, 41k Active users

    This is from fedidb (same site the screenshot from the post comes from). 923 Servers, 39,832 Active Users and 433,819 Total Users

    Then we have fediverse.observer. Based on that graph, monthly active users are growing. 845 Servers and 43,631 Active users and 1,944,442 Total Users

    And finally we have lemmyverse. Which uses the method to find the “sus” servers and users, so 863 Servers and 1,741,848 Actual Users

    To me personally it seems like the content is becoming more regular and better in quality overall. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
