Bible says that the rapture would happen before a particular apostle would die?

Wait, really !

Mohammed said a similar thing, he saw a boy and said: “before this kid dies the world will end”, the kid grew up and died and still here we are…

I doubt it, this is to trick the user into thinking they’re special because they managed to get in

If they had 10k users I won’t suspect a dark pattern, but 2 million ?! That’s to lure people into joining

Omg, I can’t believe this is happening !!

Today when I updated Windows11, I got copilot and we were discussing how it’s unacceptable to not let me uninstall Microsoft Edge, well I was, Copilot was just chilling it, but it did agree eventually

But this is only happening in Europe, which means Microsoft didn’t suddenly turn pure hearted, it’s just the law forcing them into it …

they are probably offline install ISOs with all the software included right?

yes they are, but when you install them you’ll see they’re removing lots of stuff that’s not needed for your hardware to function

What I hate the most about Windows isos is not the size, although it’s most likely just bloat and spying programs, I hate that they don’t let you download them if you … As they say

leveraging anonymous or location hiding technologies when connecting to this service is not generally allowed

Yeah, right… Is it unlikely they’re getting your real IP to associate it with that Iso, so they have one more data point that get added to that profile they built about u ? maybe I’m just overthinking

On Windows you need shady external software

No, not necessarily you can use Foss debloaters but they won’t magically make windows ethical

RockyLinux and Garuda are 9Gb and 5Gb respectively…

The verified feature on flathub is a double edged sword, it makes me lean towards verified apps, even if the alternative is better and made by the original Dev ( but they just didn’t verify themselves )

Next up is user rating and comments…

How does WebKit compare to other rendering engines in terms of security ? Is it any better than gecko for example

So, Firefox on iOS is just a skin ?!

Maybe, but I don’t wanna try anymore, you could patch Infinity with Revanced patches and keep using it too, but I dont wanna do that either…

Of course leaving reddit entirely is always better.

Yeah, I gave up…

what laws did they break?

I think it’s called CCPA ( a US data law ), Reddit violated that law, when they restored users’ content, im guessing this law guarantees the right to be erased… ( US data laws sound good on paper, but they never work in reality 😂 )

Also they can’t just go to their terms of service and change stuff based on the situation, they even tried to stretch the meaning of some clauses in their TOS just so they can cover it up, it’s all in r/announcements, just scroll back to June 2023

Yea you’re, I tried some instances they work for a while and then they give that message : too many requests

what happened to Reddit is just disgusting, they broke the law and they’re roaming free…

Confused by duplicate communities ( community of the same name and topic hosted on different servers beehaw and Lemmy.ml for example ), so I follow them both and judging by which one is more active, I unsub from it

Edit : from the one that’s not very active I mean … 😅

From their Github

⚠️Why do I get TOO MANY REQUESTS errors? ⚠️ As of July 12th, 2023, Libreddit is currently not operational as Reddit’s API changes, that were designed to kill third-party apps and content scrapers who don’t pay large fees, went into effect. Read the full announcement here. One of the project maintainers is working towards keeping this project alive to some extent: #836

Some instances might still be operational, but limited…

I deleted my Reddit accounts, once Infinity stopped working, and I open reddit links in Tor ( same with Tiktok and others ), they’re not gonna have it their way

That’s because they’re targeting Desktop users only, I think and I hate to say it, we’ll inevitably face 3 choices in the future

A. Watch YT with all it’s ads B. Quit using YT C. Pay for premium

All these awesome privacy frontends that we use will be killed, just like Libreddit & Teddit, and ads on YT will be unbearable, long, repetitive, that even non techies will start thinking of ways to avoid them…

The only effective solution I see, is that content creators have the balls to selfhost their content using Peertube, or migrate to Rumble or odysee…

Many content creators like LTT straight out refused to offer another way to view their content, there is no reason why anyone wouldn’t want to Sync their content to other platform, unless they care that much about that ad revenue, which shows they support this business model

sorry about the grammar, slept for 2 hours…

Is there an Anti-Facebook sub-lemmy ?

Edit: Oh there IS now
