Did you post a Feature Request on the Lemmy connect community? The Dev is pretty reactive, to bugs as well as to requests.

Connect has most of the features people are asking for here

Me too, which makes Sync an endless scroll of black squares where ads should be. No thanks, Connect it is.

Block Instance is available on the Connect app.

I’ve never seen that a publisher who’s locking it’s books would sell them different on different platforms. I just checked Andy Weir from his own website, it is all amazon / apple / google etc locked versions - or pulp-tree-and-ink.

But I’d be very happy to be wrong; have you got sites to recommend?

Yes. I buy on ebooks dot com, where you can filter by the DRM-free critter. It is also a neat trick to discover new authors.

I do this absolutely out of personal opinion on the matter, and would rather buy dead-tree-and-ink than a closed version (that won’t open on my e-reader anyway).

The whole - and excellent - Murderbot Diaries series is DRM-free ! I wonder what/who make the decision on that matter.

Thank you so much. Unrelated bug, I couldn’t “buy you a coffee” from my android phone, be it Firefox or Chrome. I’ll try from home.

Do you use to eat your eggs sunny-side-up? (With the yellow still liquid?) If so, you should be safe. Or you’ve been lucky, I have no clue as to the prevalence of Salmonella in Brazil.

THANKS you’re the best :)

I believe a lot of the new users’ influx was knee-jerk reaction towards it. Then people calmed down and went back to their old habits, leaving the fediverse with millions of dead accounts.

I enjoyed being a mod to a helpful community tho - but no, I’m no longer working for free so that spez can shine in the stock market: that’s exactly who I’m not, exactly against all my values.

The internet has changed so much.
