does this support filtering incoming episodes based on text in title? like exlcuding podcasts with “Preview” in the title for trunctated premium episodes in normal feeds? i’m amazed every piece of podcast software doesn’t include functionality like that.

i got on posteo recently, it’s great. sometimes the webmail feels a little archaic but it’s probably for good reasons and keeps costs down. every setting i could want is exposed and their guides are really good.

this is my setup as well, shout out to removely save. and i never have any sync issues with 3 clients.

i gotta say, all the exits makes testing really frustrating

seems handy. hardware acceleration would be cool but it can be a clusterfuck on linux

does anyone have an actual horror story about anything happening via an exposed web service? let’s set aside SSH

i’m pretty sure you can just drop the normal channel url into freshrss and it’ll convert it automatically. maybe it’s an extension doing that though

i have one running debian as a secondary backup to run just smart home stuff and pi-hole. you can set it up to start back up after power failure. was like $50 used. there’s basically no point in it being a mac rather than an old lenovo machine, but it sure is cute looking.

pretty cool, i want to encourage this purely in the interest of building up a community of more interesting themes. that part of freshrss is so bland.

i’ve been enjoying it, the docs are really good. i think it could be a little “smarter” like with recognizing schedules, but it’ll only get better. a major limiting factor for me that isn’t any fault of actual is that my apple card either through simplefin or manually exporting only allows download of the previous month’s transactions after closing. so for that account it’s not really useful for seeing where i’m at budget-wise halfway through the month, only in retrospect and forecasting.

just gonna be 100% upfront, i would only use this if it could index my downloads folder of pirated games that are folders with setup.exe inside

ars posted this article today: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/08/its-not-worth-paying-to-be-removed-from-people-finder-sites-study-says/

takeaways:

1. the paid automated options don’t work very well
2. easyoptouts had the best success rate at (only) 65%
3. claims connections between the data sites and removal sites – i certainly saw a few ads on the sites but nothing points any fingers at any of the services mentioned in the comments here.

i ended up using kanary and optery in the free tier and doing the removals manually. but to follow up on my OP, there’s no service i’ve seen that goes any deeper than what comes up on google, which is disappointing. there are larger, private databases (such as lexisnexis) which was hoping to be able to get out of.

anyone else have experience with this one?

Yeah true. I think what I’m looking for is a reasonable cost/benefit/time investment, like maybe I’ll order a Kanary scan once a year and manually opt them all out. I did kanary this afternoon and the vast majority only had my voter registration info, but a few had attached my cell number which might be from the WhoIs data. If I can slow the spread of that for <$20/year I’ll feel satisfied.

I see the logic if I was continually making potential leaks (I guess we all are), but for trying to clean up a specific thing like my case, I suppose I can just buy one month.

very cool thanks

Checking them out, thanks. I kinda wish there was a different pricing model than a subscription for this kind of service.

edit; after signing up i can actually see within the free tier that there’s a “buy custom scan” option which might allow more piecemeal payments, gonna look into it

i just realized i set up ente but put the login for it in my bitwarden. that kind of defeats the purpose. so i guess i would need to save the ente creds outside of bitwarden… then i need a second 2FA source for that… endless cycle…

Ente looks really nice but I wish it had a Firefox addon

so much chinese text
