-Vimium (install and hit the letter 'f' key. You will immediately understand the appeal if you are a keyboard jockey)
-A Userscript handler (Violentmonkey)
-Dark Reader
-Save to Pocket (I have a Kobo ereader, this extension is a must for reading on the go)
-Bitwarden
-Ublock if the browser doesn't have baked in Ad blocks.
I love reading the responses to this question.
I am in the same boat. Installing…Dog help me.
I’m having trouble finding communities in lemmy.ml here (is one of the unblocked instances). I can find them from another lemmy instance, just not here. How often are the communities updated? I’m hoping to make beehaw my ‘home’ instance.
So far so good. This is actually my first comment.
I had a hard time wrapping my head around how the federation worked. But figured out I just search here in communities only with my keywords. If I don’t get a result here and https://browse.feddit.de then it means no community has yet been created anywhere.
I decided to make Beehaw my ‘home’ server after discovering it actually had an ‘interview’ that I jived with and a moderated/structured set of communities. As my first deeper ‘test’ of lemmy I have created my first community at lemmy.world since it seemed like the place for my random community about a grocery store chain: !traderjoes@lemmy.world
If I was making a specific tech/software related community I likely would have chosen lemmy.ml as that’s where many other tech/software related projects have landed so far. But lemmy.world seemed the better choice for random.
Does this seem relatively close to be how I should handle things in the lemmyverse?
Edit: It would be nice if there was a user setting to open external links in new tabs.
It’s quite simple. Create a pocket account at https://getpocket.com
Add some articles or Web Serial chapters to your pocket (easier with the Save to Pocket extension)
Add the Pocket account to your Kobo.
Sync your kobo.
It’s such an under advertised feature of the Kobo devices.
Better but personally I don’t like creating accounts on the kobo, would rather do on the desktop: https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017763753-Use-the-Pocket-App-with-your-Kobo-eReader
