Majority are not too techy to understand fediverse, nor they really care of the benefit decentralization provides.

I installed Signal via Obtanium. Just use this URL when searching/adding the app

Not sure if this is the right community to discuss here in Lemmy?

There are some extensions you can try - https://duckduckgo.com/?q=old+reddit+extension+firefox&t=fpas&ia=web

But I'm using LibRedirect - https://libredirect.github.io/

If you're using Firefox mobile (Android), you could try this https://github.com/octonezd/oldlander

and any comments you leave on lemmy should show up on the peertube video!

This is cool to see. Unfortunately, we from Lemmy can't see comments posted by peertube or mastadon users. AFAIK, federation in Lemmy still needs improvement to interact with mastodon posts/comments.

Android auto for OsmAnd is a paid feature either through subscription or one-time purchase. Has anyone tried it and do you think its worth it?

History shows command I didn't run on my VPS (lemmy.ml)

Hey guys, I saw this in my VPS when checking history:

    1  chmod +x /usr/lib/virt-sysprep/scripts/0001-swapoff--dev-vda2-mkswap--dev-vda2-swapon--dev-vda2-resize2f
    2  cat /usr/lib/virt-sysprep/scripts/0001-swapoff--dev-vda2-mkswap--dev-vda2-swapon--dev-vda2-resize2f
    3  vi /usr/lib/virt-sysprep/scripts/0001-swapoff--dev-vda2-mkswap--dev-vda2-swapon--dev-vda2-resize2f

here is the content of the script:

# cat /usr/lib/virt-sysprep/scripts/0001-swapoff--dev-vda2-mkswap--dev-vda2-swapon--dev-vda2-resize2f
swapoff /dev/vda2;mkswap /dev/vda2;swapon /dev/vda2;resize2fs /dev/vda1;yum -y update;systemctl disable guestfs-firstboot;reboot

This is a new server I provisioned on my VPS in racknerd. The command looks safe, but I'm wondering if these commands were executed on its own? Or someone has logged in to my VPS? This is also not normal, isn't it?

What online games can be played by 2 users? (lemmy.ml)

submitted 10 months ago by heyfrancis@lemmy.ml to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I have an online friend from the other side of the globe. We met in chess.com. But I'd like to try a different game this time. We are not console gamers, but have smartphones. Are there any online games we can try for free that can be played real-time? Looking for something light and can be played in the phone browser.
