Antennapod is my podcast program of choice, just a nice clean UI
I have been hearing a lot of it here in Lemmy, I have been using Pocket Casts free version for so long, at this point I just want a Podcast app that has a queue list that survives account based (I mean if I wipe the app or reinstall it it will have the queue there in the exact second it was left) and the voice booster and silence trimming features, a quick look for that app doesn’t seem to have it though, and those features are what kept me from some other popular options like Apple Podcast, Spotify and Overcast (I currently use Android).
I looked at this the other day and really liked it. Is there a way to import listening data across from pocket casts?
Did one of your annoying nerdy friends hide some weird unicode in a message they sent to you? Copy/paste into this site to see exactly what dickery they’re up to:
https://babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/whatisit.html
I say this because I’m that annoying friend that likes to slip a unicode right-to-left character in just to see what happens.
Can you give an example of the kind of dickery one might get up to by hiding Unicode in a message? I’m not sure I understand what this is for
You can reverse the way characters display with this unicode character. U+202E. Example. You can use this to make users think that a file has a different exnetion that it really has. Example: image.gnp.exe This example actually has the extension.exe so it is a executable but looks like it is a PNG.
Also, at an old workplace I put that in my username in our chat app and it completely screwed up the UI for people that were using terminal apps for chat as soon as my username appeared and I had to take it out.
You can also do things like use confusable characters to point someone at the wrong domain like pаypal.com.

Great for when you’re trying to schedule a meeting or show when you’re available. It’s even free and open source.
Joplin and Obsidian.md
Joplin is open source note taking to the bone and obsidian is still open but with some paid favors in the mix. Both have mobile and desktop clients for just about everything except a literal toaster.
Edit: lmao I am a kumquat, obsidian isn’t actually open source except for the plugins. So keep that in mind if you plan to use it.
I will also throw in syncthing. Open source, syncs files between devices it’s pretty freaking neato. Definitely a 10 out of 10 project for me.
