I’ve never emulated PS3, but FMHY (freemediaheckyeah) is always my go-to starting point for answering this kind of question. They usually have awesome recommendations:

You should start by determining how it knows the trial is expired.
Try installing it without internet access to see if it phones home. If it gives an error before installing, (but doesn’t say the trial is expired) it might be phoning home to see if the trial is expired.
If it installs offline and still tells you the trial is expired, then that probably means it left some trace of itself somewhere on your computer.
Once you know which method it uses, you can start to work on bypassing it.

I’m guessing it either stores/modifies a file on your computer to let it know that it’s been installed before, or it might use an online check using some kind of hardware identifier.
If it checks online, Wireshark may help. What operating system are you using?

Seems like a no-brainer! They could even leave the old behavior as an option for instance admins to re-enable, but if they default it to not DDoSing, that would make a huge difference.

I bet there’s a bookmarking app that can output an RSS feed since they’re pretty simple; then you could just subscribe to it from any feed reader. You could possibly even build a simple one. Where do you want to be able to save bookmarks from? And what RSS reader do you use?

Do you simply want to bookmark posts you discover via RSS or do you wanna be able to add arbitrary links to it too?

My rules that haven’t led me astray yet:
- Use Linux
- Use Firefox with uBlock Origin with all/most of the built-in block lists enabled
- Stick to reputable sources listed on FMHY and the r/piracy megathread
- Prefer open source emulators and source ports for gaming
- Have an automatic backup system that does off-site backups
- Use network-wide or system-wide host blocking using custom DNS servers for your router or operating system (such as Pi-hole or NextDNS) with aggressive block lists
I assume this was added in version 0.6.9 on purpose?

if the problem is that major platforms are centralized, opaque, and controlled by corporations, why would the solution be yet another centralized platform controlled by a corporation?
Because people are brainwashed into only trusting billionaires, corporations, brand names, and consumer packaged goods to solve all our problems.

What went wrong with the .m3u8 file? I’ve had lots of success ripping from websites using yt-dlp. For sites it doesn’t have explicit support for, it can fail if it can’t find the stream URL.
In those cases, I open the Network tab of Firefox’s developer tools and try to find something that looks like a stream URL, and then copy it out of there and give it to yt-dlp. (Don’t forget to surround the URL in double quotes if the URL contains an
&)If you provide the URL you’re trying to download from, I can try to take a look.
