Yeah, it seems to work now. Didn’t used to work reliably a few years ago. Now, text within any document I save seems to come up in search shortly afterwards.

It’s things like this that make me glad that my email service defaults to not loading any images/links/html. There’s a small button at the top to load them if I want.
Yes, I remember that! I recall thinking, imagine how good this will get in the future. Sadly it didn’t.
Yes, they are less prevalent due to Reddit and other social media sucking up a lot of the users.
They are still around though. One Australian forum that I’ve been on for years which is still very active is Whirlpool. Started as a tech forum and expanded. It’s very useful as source of info as it’s been around over 20 years and a lot of questions have been asked and answered there.
Nice! Took me to a site full of movie themes in midi format👌🏻
I wondered the same thing.
It’s definitely the best one after Sync.
Thanks, I’ll check it out.
In terms of blocking ads, I run Adguard (lifetime sub), which blocks ads system wide - even in apps.
Synced bookmarks could be good though.
I have been with idrive since 2009. At the time they were the only ones that allowed backups of network attached storage on their cheaper personal plans. Everyone else saw that as an “enterprise” feature which required a business plan. Which was bullsh*t, because lots of home NAS devices were being sold.
Anyway, I haven’t done a recent comparison of services, but I remain happy with idrive.
Thesedays I no longer backup on a computer with a mapped drive, but directly from my NAS which runs the idrive software.
I had a catastrophic dual drive failure a few years ago, one failed and another failed during the raid rebuild! I was able to restore about 1tb of data and didn’t lose anything important.
They also offer backup and restore by shipping a drive to you if you want to avoid the huge initial backup or a total restore, but I haven’t used that feature.
They do also have a mobile app, but last time I tried it, it wasn’t great.
On desktop it’s mainly Firefox, on mobile it’s mainly the stock Samsung browser.
But I’ve started using Edge a bit more on mobile lately since I discovered its reading mode, which makes for a very clean readable format to read articles.
Yeah, I’m only keeping it because of the grandfathered deal. If they scrap that I’ll just cancel and save the money. Better in my pocket than Google’s!
I’m relying on some of you folks to do a “trial” for me and let me know. Your efforts are appreciated 😛
Yes, Connect For Lemmy had this.
Damn, that did a disturbingly good job of sounding like the real deal 😮
Thanks!
Nah, 3-6 days max.
Thanks, that’s great 🙂
To never make any resolutions ever again.
So far it’s going well 👍🏻
How do you filter for English?
I sometimes get a bunch of Dutch and German posts. They seem to come in waves. My high school German from years ago is not up to the task so I’d rather filter them out!
Agreed, it’s so good.
