They took away full screen viewing of someone's shared screen on the browser version. I only use the browser because I run ubuntu. It really sucks now to have someone try and show you their code.

I am quite interested in this. I take a similar approach using SingleFile and then a watchdog script to watch for SingleFile downloads. But mine doesn't look as mature as yours. If I have a large collection of SingleFile bookmarks can

This comment pulled me in and I've reread it several times. Tere is a lot of truth here. I appreciate how information hoarding can be a sign of status seeking. More knowledge, more skill, more times being the person who just knows the
