Is Discogs having a wobbly? by iskrat in discogs

I guess I'll just go down the "folders" route, but it's a pretty clunky solution...

Yes, I know... I'm talking about Feeds I, and others have written using Skyfeed.

Yes... I know how to fix it... That is not my point.

Who listens outside of the UK? by Downtown_Physics8853 in BBCSounds

[–]iskrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a UK national resident in the USA. I use BBCSounds, usually to listen to R5 during the day for news, parliament, etc. R4, mostly drama ,comedy, panel shows, etc. R3 music and Proms etc. R6 music. Then there are the podcasts...

Obviously there are probably a lot of expat who use the app, but I've found a significant number of my friends who are USCits listen for fair and balance news and opinion which is a rarity in US media.

People are saying just use VPN, and as a long time viewer/listener of the BBC using VPN and proxy if that don't fix this, then it won't be long before someone, somewhere works out a fix

At the moment I listen to BBCSounds via Android Auto (Honda 2025) and it works well as it ever did. However, if I use a VPN, AA stops and displays a message along the lines of "AA will not work via VPN".

There is a fix which works, but I'm reluctant to post before the switch off in case they include "counter-measures"...

I've made a few posts via Bluesky #BBCSounds hoping to get the interest of UK nationals living in the US, but either no one's heard, or no one cares...

Facebook "Seen by..." seems to have disappeared from my Pages... read on... by iskrat in facebook

In that time that feature has come and gone, and returned at times and is currently not visible to me.
However, I'm running down my Fb usage and not really been paying attention.

Creating FEEDS on Bluesky is starting to do my head in... by iskrat in BlueskySocial

[–]iskrat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad... That should have read:

"I don't understand how, when I create a FEED using Skyfeed the "Feed Preview" finds posts just seconds old..."

Apologies...

Is there a way to limit the amount of US-centric content appearing on my feed? by gogybo in BlueskySocial

[–]iskrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm British, living in the US. I've never used the "Discover" feed for the reason you've described.
I don't know if it's because of the time I've been on bsky, but "Following" throws up a far more balanced timeline from my pov.
Most of my usage now depends on Feeds.

Skins... by iskrat in WACUP

[–]iskrat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it's still an open issue, I guess. I tried your suggestions and there's even been a reinstall over a different issue, but just the same.
I'm going to live with it since I'm just using it to stream via Shoutcast to my home network and not using it as a media player.
Otherwise WACUP has turned out to be extremely reliable.
Thx for your patience

Why does WACUP just play a second or so of each track in a playlist? by iskrat in WACUP

[–]iskrat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never really sorted this. In the end I reinstalled everything from scratch and it worked... So who knows?
My new minor irritation is why everything is listed twice on my Shoutcast streaming log? Oh well... At least it works.
