oh god, it’s spreading

you set up your own address with the block lists you want through https://my.nextdns.io

yeah, I keep seeing some graffiti calling people to pay by cash in order to “stop NWO” around here. yuck.

okay then. Cyprus was still a tax haven when the Russian-based company moved there, I’m sure for completely unrelated reasons.

I prefer NextDNS for blocking ads and trackers, you get to choose your own blocklists and white/blacklist domains of your choosing if you run into some problems.

There’s nothing that stops a FOSS app from doing that

I’m well aware there’s no technological obstacle. many people choose FOSS maps over Google to have less of their data collected though, so I could imagine they’d object to such practice, which would make the feature less effective.

not really, because they’d have to constantly collect its users’ location in order to do that.

Flohmarkt is probably the closest thing https://codeberg.org/grindhold/flohmarkt

not sure where you’re seeing this, latest release was in June, and the latest commit was three weeks ago.

you need to change the “Preferred video quality” in the preferences to “DASH (adaptive quality)”, then you’ll be able to pick higher resolution.

I do miss the tab bar, it would be great to have it on the tablet.

It was also much smoother

now that’s just rose-tinted glasses speaking. I remember how absolutely abysmal old Firefox’ scrolling was, and how they’ve claimed multiple times that they’ve improved it but it was still horribly sluggish compared to Chromium browsers. I’ve been using Firefox Preview (and then Nightly after enough performance improvements have landed on it) for about a year just to have acceptable experience on mobile.

the only available solutions are wrappers for the mobile website, like SlimSocial.

I haven’t heard of any research results that have proven that phones or apps are actually listening to people’s conversations, and am only aware of a research that has proven the opposite: https://gizmodo.com/these-academics-spent-the-last-year-testing-whether-you-1826961188

WhatsApp is now in Meta’s hands

it’s been owned by Facebook/Meta for almost a decade, so I’m not sure it warrants using “now”.

no, but you can just save the post for checking it out later.

I’ve tried pretty much every app available, and liked Thunder the most. second place goes to Jerboa.
