I had no idea how much I enjoyed LibreVox (which - at least for the things I am interested in - goes to archive.org for downloads) and OpenLibrary until I couldn't access them. This morning, still no go on either.

When I was a kid my family put up the tree the Saturday after Thanksgiving (US), and took it down January 1, all as a family fun thing. I still do that.
These are also just fun:
I also use Mojeek when I want a (serious) different set of results that I'm not getting from those pulling from google, bing, etc. It's not the best but it's getting better over time.
See if the command line utility “detox” removes it. I use it in a bash file that tidies everything up for me before I do my daily backup.
Go to the directory you want to clean up and type:
detox *
If you don't want to clean up everything, you can limit it. For example, if I only want to clean up PDF files, I'd do:
detox *.pdf
Detox replaces all the ugly characters with underscores. I personally hate underscores for most everything and use dashes instead. So after detox runs I also run:
rename ‘y/_/-/’ *
Then, because I want every file named only with lowercase letters, I also run:
rename ‘y/A-Z/a-z/’ *

Agreed. Yes, it's important to know what's going on in the "big" world - but I wish all of us more interested in Lemmy, the small web, and so on spent more time and energy on creating, maintaining, and enjoying what we can build/use and less lamenting, bashing, or wishing for what we want to leave behind.
