Mlem, ios only?

Yeah that is a nice recommended

I usually fall asleep to watching YouTube preferably adfree on my TV, screen mirroring can heat up the device, so for that sake I would probably need something like an Apple TV if chromecast just gives me ads

Really? I thought using official YouTube stuff gave ads when casting, could just be a chromecast thing tho, what do you cast to?

Would love an alternative to GrayJay on iOS that lets me cast to tv

I switched to Summit for now, been great

Is this on the youtube app or YouTube in safari?

 

anyone know good youtube apps with casting functionality for iOS that don't have ads?

I know GrayJay is nice on Android for that. just want to cast Youtube to my TV without getting hit with ads every 5 seconds 😅

what do you use?

 

I just made the switch to Lemmy and I'm curious what everyone's using to browse it. Looking for recommendations for both mobile and desktop.

Mobile: Been testing a few apps.

  • Voyager's been solid so far - clean interface and works well. Only downside is no push notifications.
  • Also tried Boost but it has some display issues - embedded icons don't show up right and GIFs in comments are way too small.

Desktop: Still figuring out what to use here. What do you all prefer?

Any recommendations would be helpful. Thanks.

Making the jump from Samsung to iPhone soon, mainly for privacy reasons. Want to cut Google out as much as possible while I'm at it.

What I'm planning so far:

  • Mailbox.org instead of Gmail
  • DuckDuckGo for search, would prefer something even better
  • Safari with all the privacy stuff turned on

Where I'm stuck:

  • What about YouTube? Just use the web version?

  • Google Drive alternatives that actually work well?

  • Best way to store photos that aren't big greedy corps?

Questions:

  • Any must-have privacy apps once I get the iPhone?

  • Settings I should change immediately out of the box?

  • Services I'm forgetting that are probably feeding Google my data?

Note: I prefer Apple over Google and I’m not ready to go full privacy-hardened, I want to find a balance between convenience and privacy protection.

So I'm moving from Samsung to iPhone soon, mainly because I despise Google. Want to cut Google out as much as possible while I'm at it.
