"Ad blockers are unethical—ads are how they pay to keep the lights on!”
Exactly. It's how THEY pay to keep the lights on. It's not how I pay for anything. I didn't agree to see ads, although I'm ok with some ads; what I definitely didn't do is agree to be tracked and profiled and have arbitrary third-party code running on my computer just so I could read this awful, pointless, SEO-ified shitfest of an article that doesn't come close to answering the question I was googling.
Even though I absolutely love #Linux, sometimes I get tired of encountering the same issues over and over again, and of the "it's 99% there" situation.
Let me know if you agree with these issues or not, and if you have others that personally bother you.
(Also, 2nd video out of 4 that isn't edited by me, previous feedback has been incorporated partially, let me know what you thought!)
Thanks to everyone who reached out, fediDB.org and fediverse.info will remain online going forward.
I'm not going anywhere either, though I think I need a break from the fediverse for a few days.
I'm not fucking stupid to want to be able to talk to people on Meta's instance. I wan to talk to the PEOPLE there, not Zuckerberg. I wouldn't want to BE on his instance, but I would want to be able to reach it and be reached by it so I can communicate. It's like wanting to talk to friends who may be living in countries we don't get along with. Can we just make them leave? No. But do we just throw them away because of their geographical location? No.
@stux this is a bad move, from all sides
If FB / Meta wanted to sow distrust before the coming 2024 US election, then they have succeeded, by creating infighting between instances, so none of us can organize.
The classic move in chinese fiction, is when a dying rich person whisper a nothing burger to someone he hates, right in front of everyone, to let them murder each other.
This is the time when every instances should actually come together instead.All admins should sit down and talk.
Rammstein-Sänger Till Lindemann lässt sich anwaltlich vertreten – die Kanzlei droht mit juristischen Schritten auch gegen Berichterstatter. Der Journalisten-Verband nennt das einen, »Versuch, Medien einen Maulkorb anzulegen«.
Scheiße, die Picknickdecke ist noch besudelt von der letzten Party und mein Kleid voller Katzenhaare...
Sommer ist mir zu kompliziert.
