Unity makes major changes to controversial install-fee program ...😑

Jump

  • Considering the trust they've lost I don't think they've planned to do it this way. And if they didn't plan it, they assumed that their original plan wasn't going to result in much opposition, so that was the plan they wanted to go with.

    • What simple changes should people do in their lives to make a positive impact on climate change?

  • If no person does anything nothing changes.

    Of course your own choices in isolation don't change much. But that's like saying voting doesn't do anything because a single vote doesn't matter. We all can make choices that add up through all of society.

    • What are some conspiracy theories you absolutely believe to be true?

    Jump

  • I'm not saying a few people fucking over the rest is a conspiracy theory.

    I'm saying that all those conspiracy theories people love to discuss are pushed to capture the attention of those people and have them think they're involved in something important and spend all their energy on that, so the assholes can keep on fucking them over without much resistance.

    • FOSS Automated Music ID3 tagger?

  • If musicbrainz has an acoustic fingerprint for the songs it doesn't need metadata. Picard is more or less the GUI version of beets.

  • Just the boring one: That all the exciting conspiracies (and other stuff like "culture wars") are there to distract from the banal reality of most people and the world being exploited by a few selfish assholes.

    • Google's Web DRM is Worse than I Thought...

    Jump

  • It was time to switch to Invidious anyway.

    Which will stop working once this is implemented, since it doesn't use a trusted browser to access YT. As will any kind of automated access. Search engine bots, archive crawlers, third party apps... anything websites don't like or know won't be able to access them anymore.

    • Favourite YouTube frontend for android?

  • If you want to continue using any of them, you should probably uninstall any Chrome-based browser now: https://techreport.com/news/google-tries-to-defend-its-web-environment-integrity-as-critics-slam-it-as-dangerous/

    "Through WEI, Google aims to help websites weed out bots by verifying that the visitors on their domains are actual users."

    In other words, if this gets implemented it is likely that Youtube will block anything that doesn't look like a "real browser" (i.e. Chrome), so no videos in alternative apps anymore.

  • Yeah, I added the link since the embedded image didn't seem to work.

    • No apologies as Reddit halfheartedly tries to repair ties with moderators

    Jump

  • If you want to push back against the rising right-wing bigotry modding a decently sized subreddit might be one of the most effective places for regular people to do so. Arguably that power is not irrelevant in today's social media landscape.

    • Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser

  • Let's hope there's already a law that the EU can find to apply (since they already don't like the non-EU dominance of big tech), or that they make one in time.
