when this happened to me, I filled it around 2am the day before my follow up appointment but had no time to print it so I went there hoping I would be able to email it to them.

I refuse to pay for a search engine. There are numerous searxng instances out there in which I’m not the product even though I’m not paying.

to be technically correct, they are not “distributing” it. They are doing the same thing shazam does for music.

it is not “now”. It is exactly as it was being used in 2020, when the article was written, by the mass media. They were calling “troll” everyone they were disagreeing with.

lmao after seeing your name I can’t believe it was you all the time

I agree on the first part. However this is from 2012 and in the meantime Linus himself realized and admitted that he was not proud of behaving like that and took real measures and seeked help in order to improve himself.

damn. I lost. Give me your bank details to send you your money.

once I had a flatmate that every time he was cooking he was leaving the kitchen like a warzone and he had used every utensil available in the kitchen. He somehow thought that it was faster for him to focus only on the cooking and after it is completed, to do all the dishes, pots, utensils, glasses, oven trays, scissors, screwdrivers, hammers, drills or whatever else he may had used.

fingerprint login is not secure. period. Being stuck in using a password login is a plus

your memory might not works very well since it was never called plain “mozilla”

Less content, that is spread across multiple instances that can have duplicate communities.

on top of that, there redundant communities that are unnecessary even in the same instances. For example there is the android@ and the askandroid@. The first one has a decent amount of subscribers while the second one has a single digit number. I wanted to ask a question, I posted in the first one since it would make sense to reach more people. The post got deleted and I was told to go to the other one. In the first one they were posting only news articles.

This is ridiculous. Splitting communities in such way was the result of the huge traffic that such communities had in the past in other platforms. This makes sense only when the traffic is so huge that it is practically chaotic to navigate and moderate between news/articles and support questions. When both communities combined have 50 subscribers, such split only harms the platform and the users.

Everyone wanted to migrate by bringing an identical environment to what they had used to. However this should be adaptable to the current situation instead of directly copying it.

This!

in the 90s there was no technology to have an overlay of an ad following you while you scroll and when you close it a new one appears more aggressively. Or to let you start reading an article and then suddenly appear in your face not allowing you to continue. Yes, there was the worse situation that they would open a whole new window, but browsers started restricting it quite early

Once I was using a girlfriend’s laptop and I told her very casually “I’m adding an adblock” when she replies me “no don’t block them, I like them because sometimes I find nice offers in the ads” and I froze. I wasn’t expecting that and I was so baffled like “what do you mean you like them, how do you live seeing more ads than what you originally came for” lol

or get an open source, free and privacy friendly one from f-droid in case you haven’t tied your hands with an iphone

sure if you prefer to support the google monopoly

firefox for android + ublock origin and/or adguard-dns

The IT crowd

yeah you’re right actually. I always use it combined with a local browser adblock and didn’t think of that
