Using a Chrome user agent in FF can result in broken video / audio playback on various sites.

“You’re just a tiny minority, most people like the change”

They did the same shit with their redesign with their idiotic floating tabs. They look ugly and they even take up way more space, while displaying less information, for literally no reason. They argued the need this change for future FF features, which yet, several years later, have yet to appear. Here’s a quote from “Paul”, one of their moderators - almost 3 years ago:

Hi,

We bring a modernized and differentiated look to tabs since Firefox 89 in order to create a signature Firefox look and experience. This major redesign will help us enable more use cases and features in the future.

I love Firefox and will continue to use it, but its decline is a mixture of Google’s aggressive embrace, extend, and extinguish approach and straight up continued mismanagement of the Mozilla Corporation.

That’s bullshit and you know it. Lemmy.ml is blocked by almost no one. I also see hexbear and Lemmygrad when I sort by New.

I’m surprised how many people use bleach / bleach based products. You really don’t need such aggressive stuff the majority of times. Regular cleaners work just fine. Or is that an US thing where bleach is in every cleaning product or something?

Well, Reddit was open source once as well. Neither going closed source nor all the various scandals, including the last big protest, did a whole lot in changing anything at all.

The fact that the Lemmy devs, who also host Lemmygrad & Lemmy.ml, are Tankies.

Mate, that subreddit is dead because the few upvotes here are from people who came from there. So of course there aren’t a whole lot of people on that sub anymore - but that’s not indicative of the state of Reddit as a whole, especially compared to the fediverse.

Kbin, on the other hand, has too many issues.

No offense to Kbin’s developer Ernest, who is working hard, but Kbin is still in alpha stage, and it often has server errors (in fact, kbin.social is down right now, and it has been for the whole day), and the userbase and engagement are far behind Lemmy. There are also federation problems between Kbin and Lemmy sometimes. Kbin is also trying to be a more all-in-one product, with both microblogging and forums, and the users there like to have both, which is fine, but Reddit users are mostly forum users and they seem to prefer Lemmy more.

It was not fully down and this completely ignores the issues that Lemmy had when they updated to the next version a while back. Really unnecessary bashing.

But I realized later that this was a misunderstanding on my part, and that this is not an issue as long as the project is open source, with an open development, and as long as you avoid instances like lemmygrad.

Totally not suspicious, but at the minimum a bit ignorant on how open source software development typically goes. And it isn’t just Lemmygrad, but even their allegedly more moderate main instance Lemmy.ml, which is really just more of the same as far as users and moderation issues go. More problematic is the fact though that you’re still supporting the devs and their problematic views simply by supporting their software and its development by directly using it, and this won’t change until a proper fork from actually decent people is going to become the main used Lemmy software.

And overall, no one won this, because the whole protest was a failure as way too many people just remained on Reddit.

It’s like “jaywalking”. It purely exists to bully and discriminate against pedestrians and declare the streets belong to the cars. That’s what you get when you have big ass corporations do the lobbying.

Sounds like coil whining to me too, albeit a pretty loud one. It’s typically GPUs and / or PSUs that are the culprit when they’re under load.

Fucking hell. Take your pills. Like seriously. Get help.

No. Israel must change, Netanyahu must resign.

Blizzard’s Rock’n Roll Racing was amazing too.

DDG doesn’t use its chatbot though, which also still is blocking all VPN traffic.

One of the many reason I don’t buy too much into the hype. The internet is generally a bad data source because of how much nonsense there is. And those “AIs” are still nothing but glorified chatbots like Cleverbot, just with a better data set to pull from. In the end they still very quickly fail and talk complete bs. Not to say they cannot be helpful or fun but people really need to be mindful about it. As always, don’t trust every little shit that’s on the internet, and that includes chatbot outputs too.

I love Steam, but the fact that you cannot permanently disable auto updates for specific titles is definitely infuriating.

You would still at least figure out one of the conflicting mods and could look for updates / further information about conflicts.
Edit: On PC that is.

That’s how I look for broken mods too. Move half of them into a temp folder, launch the game. If it works, put half of the sorted out ones back. if it doesn’t work, remove another half and try again.

I was contemplating whether it is a robot or an alien.
