Hello comrades and friends! I've gotten back into reading and I've been buying books about fascism, because of the political climate. I've picked up a few books, like

It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis Cradles of the Reich by Jen Coburn The Plot Against America by Philip Roth

I know they aren't strictly anarchist, but they do talk about fascism/authoritarianism. Could you recommend me some books about anarchism as well as more books on fascism? I prefer fiction, but will read non-fiction as well.

Hi. I'm looking for a decent replacement to Apple Music. It'd be great if it had a streaming service/store that I can buy or stream music from, as well as be able to play local music on my computer. Are there any good alternatives/replacements?

Hello! I just learned/found out you can tile tabs or split the screen in two browsers. The first browser is Vivaldi, which has tab tiling. You hold down the control button, select which tabs you'd like to tile, then right click and select tile tabs.

The second browser, that can do this (afaik, maybe there's more browsers) is Zen browser! I was not aware Zen could do this, until I did the same method in Zen as in Vivaldi. Just hold down control and select the tabs, and you can then split the tabs. Zen has the ability to split multiple tabs. Vivaldi probably does, but I only needed two. Anyways, give Zen and Vivaldi a try for tab tiling.

Do you use tab tiling? What's your opinion?

Hi. Zen Browser just released with version 1.16. It has a new feature called Zen Glance, which is pretty cool. You can preview links in the same window as if you opened that link. Press ctrl-click on a link and a window pops up showing you the link/page. You don't have to leave the page you're on either! I clicked on a video link with Zen Glance, and honestly, you could watch a video in Zen Glance while you're on the search page of youtube. I'm not sure of any other browser doing this. It's very awesome in my opinion. Anyways, that's all I wanted to share.

Hi! I'm pretty excited about this. I just downloaded Netsurfer browser, and I have tried it in the past, but it was pretty barebones when I did. Recently, it's been improving very nicely. It now has adblock and it now has bookmarks! I'm thrilled that it finally has bookmarks. I might just use it as my main temporarily now. Has anyone given Netsurfer a try?

Hello! I've posted about the Arc browser before, and the browser just got an update. I went into settings to see if any of the google stuff was there, and it mustve got removed, because they revamped the whole thing. You can customize your browser card now, and edit your arc account. I'm very glad they removed (or hid) most of the google stuff.

Hi! I'm learning web development from a video and in the video, the guy installs an addon for chrome called HTML5 Outliner. I'm either using Librewolf or Ungoogled Chromium as my main browser, and I can't seem to install the addon in Ungoogled Chromium. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a setting in Ungoogled Chromium that I need to enable? Anyone know how to bypass this and install the addon?

Hi. I'm seriously considering using Arc as my main browser. It's based on Chrome, though, so it's heavily google-fied. But! It's similar to Vivaldi, in the sense it's unique. The tab tree is on the left and you have a split screen option in the task bar area. You can add chrome extensions also, which is great. It's semi-aimed at power users. I haven't discovered all features yet, so far I'm pretty impressed. It updates almost daily/regularly. I'm definitely gonna put it in my roster of main browsers.

Hi. Floorp released an update today, and posted something interesting also. Floorp posted the parent company Ablaze, wanted to monetize Floorp while protecting the privacy of its users. I disagree, because I enjoy Floorp being free. What do you think though?

I've been using Vivaldi the past couple days, and I'm liking it a lot. I like that it has a memory saver now. The workspace feature is pretty cool too. What does Lemmy think of Vivaldi? Fave feature? Bonus question: Do you use crypto browsers like Brave?

Hello! I've been searching for a reddit alternative, and yes, I've picked Lemmy and Raddle, but here's the thing. My morbid curiosity is perked up, and a part of me wants to join the "free speech" alternatives, like Saidit, Poal, etc. What's wrong with me that I want to join toxic places? I mean, yes I'll find a whole new perspective (albeit wrong), on political topics, but a part of me wants to be the antagonist, and post lefty memes, and music with a left-leaning message (bands from r/rabm) I know that's like kicking the hornet's nest, so you don't need to start in with "that's a bad idea" I know it is. My main point/question is, is it wrong to join a site with potential hate speech? Does it make someone a bad person?
