Pink Floyd got together and together with Andriy Khlyvnyuk released this in support of Ukrainian resistance just minutes ago. Powerful images. Powerful music. Powerful message.
This video is unavailable in your country, the owner does not allow streaming from your location. I mean, I can use vpn and stuff but it's insettling.
@academicalnerd Sometimes easier than VPN is simply to use proxy services. nitter.net is a transparent proxy for Twitter. piped.kavin.rocks is a proxy for Youtube.
@academicalnerd Another good way to read paywalled or otherwise inaccessible newspaper articles is via archive.is. See, e.g., here: https://archive.ph/7CfnO (just a random Economist article from this morning).
I'd be interested to know whether these work from Russia.
Those are really useful tricks to know. Recently came across nitter and teddit.
Thanks, both work! I tried invidious a few times but it doesn't work for some reason. I guess I'll use Piped from now on.
I am aware of nitter but don't use twitter so it doesn't really matter. It looks like I'm gonna mostly transition to soundcloud+odysee+mastodon along with a few telegram channels.
@academicalnerd if you checkout UntrackMe on F-droid, you will get a list of all the known proxies out there.
@academicalnerd I am quite interested in exploring the extent and mechanics of the "Digital Iron Curtain". If you don't mind, could you tel me whether you can see these?
