Update: Lemmy Account Sync (Handshake)
  • This is incredibly useful! Looking forward to the release!

  • Renewing DHCP Lease on DSM

    When setting up a DS923+, I added a reservation for IP address to my router. So I was wondering if there is a way to get DSM to pick up the new (and henceforth static) IP address quicker than waiting for the current one to expire (which would take about 22 more hours). On Windows/Mac there's an option to renew/refresh DHCP in network settings. Is there an equivalent thing I can do on the NAS? If not, I guess I can just wait around for it to get refreshed.

  • "Known to collect" is going to be vastly different from what's actually being collected. It's more realistically just serving ads, getting some crash/error reporting. But because it's all under Google, it's going to show up as Google. DDG/other blockers won't know the difference.

  • Comments broken?
  • I believe this is from enabling colorful mode inside Theme Management in Settings

    Edit: on second thought, that wasn't it

  • How often are yall shopping at Costco?
  • Several times a month, haha. We live really close to a Costco (7-10 mins drive!) so we just pop over for only a couple things. The addiction is real.

  • What is the state of rootless ad blockers for Android?
  • Honestly not that much. It seems pretty lightweight. It has it's own measurement of battery usage (can't say how accurate it is but still better than nothing perhaps?) and on the tablet it has consumed around 9mAh, which I guess isn't too crazy.

  • What is the state of rootless ad blockers for Android?
  • I've been using AdGuard on my phone (OnePlus 6T) and tablet (Tab S7 FE) for quite some time now. Neither device is rooted. I got AdGuard lifetime license on sale from StackSocial a while back. The app isn't on the Play Store (if you look for it, you will instead find an extension for the Samsung browser or something). They have you download the .apk from their site, and then you can set up the blocking how you prefer. It works by setting up a local VPN. I think there's other ways to use it but I didn't feel the need to tweak further. Because it acts like a VPN, all app traffic flows through it so ads are blocked pretty much system-wide. Browsers, social media apps etc. Honestly I'd highly recommend it.

    Not sure if the community has already talked about this. Just came across the article mentioning it. Might cost around the same as the DS220+ does now?

    Should we change app names?
  • It's a PWA (progressive web app). If you open the site on Chrome, then go to the Settings -> Install page, it should show some instructions on how to add the page to your home screen. Upon doing so, the next time you open it from the newly added icon, it should open in its own window looking like an app as opposed to a tab on Chrome
