moonmeow,

This is way better. Reddit is so messed up in so many ways who cares to even bother with that site.

moonmeow,

Define real

Be careful, your understanding of incognito mode in Firefox may be wrong and that could be costing you

All the incognito browser windows share the same “session” in Firefox. So say you open an Incognito window to browse Facebook or something, then you open another Incognito window, this new incognito window is linked to the previous incognito window, meaning you are logged into Facebook at that new Incognito window as well....

moonmeow,

seems counter intuitive… each incognito window should be separated into their containers.

seems like a good idea to take that container addon and apply that to incognito.

moonmeow,

Try turning off JavaScript when ur faced with an overlaying paywall

moonmeow,

Yeah…that happens, but from my experience it works a lot of times

moonmeow,

Yes that’s definitely a concern to keep in mind.

The problem is that if someone doesn’t use a password manager they’re morenlikely to reuse weak ones.

Using a password manager is a better path, as long as there is awareness on how to keep it secured.

moonmeow,

That sounds not ya I’m sure it stops a , as long as the actual password is also strong. IMO there’s still some vulnerability. If someone finds out your password and notices thepattern ‘pass+Site’, then they mighttryyon another site.

Also why it’s a good idea to have a few emails yo use across multiple sites.

moonmeow,

Might I add brave’s BAT wallet is garbage. You had to sign up to some random exchange and upload your ID (I didn’t), but even that you couldn’t even backup your wallet into a new install, so hope that you would never have to format or reinstall or change devices - it’ll be a pain to restore, if it was even possible.

Firefox over brave any day.

moonmeow,

ya. I was confused at first because i went to try it out but no f-droid or any other way of getting it?

[Rant] I swear to fucking god. Windows is harder to use than Linux. Have any of you ever USED Windows lately? Holy fuck.

I’m helping a family member build a pc. He wanted to use Windows because “Linux can’t play games” despite me having a perfectly good gaming laptop running Linux that runs all my games, even graphically intensive ones....

moonmeow,

honestly i don’t know what you did to mess up a windows install like that, but i agree overall that linux is easier. However there are quirks that can arise for a new user that will eat time or seem daunting.

moonmeow,

You’re right, I do. I only have 1 app. What’s wrong with me.

What is your most favorite one you’d recommend?

moonmeow,

hey everyone a friendly reminder that alternatives exist, and just drop this shit fast and move to better alternatives. In this case firefox.

moonmeow,

For sure, I agree and it’s bad. But frankly unsurprising. This is the trajectory of the internet: greater control.

We’ve become too dependent on centralized tech companies and erred in allowing tech companies to change, define, and control the internet in the first place.

Alternatives must be promoted in mass scale.

moonmeow,

it will truly be messed up if essential websites block user access because of this

moonmeow,

for work purposes, ok fine. but personal purposes i’d try and steer clear as much as i can.

My general point is we should use alternatives whenever possible to discourage this kind of centralized power developing in the first place.

moonmeow,

yeah what kind of crap is this.

What a sweet thing to do for a loved one.

moonmeow,

why are people indulging this company after all they did?

moonmeow,

well, i guess some silver lining is that threads is basically non-existent after its launch. The serious and place to be instances will block threads. If i need to go see something on threads i’ll join an instance that allows it, but doubt i’d ever bother.

Didn’t even bother checking it out.

moonmeow,

good stuff, glad to see this opposition.

Also slightly related, but I’d absolutely hate if I were an employee having to work on this project and having my name attached to this. Quite embarrassing for all those involved.

moonmeow,

ya, using the internet without an adblocker is a security risk because Google enables scams across its services.

How about they learn to clean house first before shitting on the internet lol.

incompetent company will do incompetent things.

moonmeow,

it feels much more fresh and spacious

moonmeow,

cursed

moonmeow,

welcome. you’ll love it

moonmeow,

stoics have a concept of preferred indifferents which are things like life, health, a good income/wealth, social status, etc that you’d rather have than their opposites, like death, sickness, poverty, bad reputation, etc. From that not sure one could label stocism as a form of dissociation.

moonmeow,

I agree, affinity programs are really good and i’d rather see those on linux
