As someone working in the industry I dislike it as well. Many of the features have some really good usecases but the problem is just that they're enabled/available for every user even if most people only use a small subset of features so the settings/interface gets so cluttered.
In my opinion though, the move away from physical interfaces towards touchscreens is way worse than the clutter.
Easiest way to reduce the environmental impact is to do more factory farming. Though I don't really think that's a good idea since it's often kinda horrific.
It all really depends on your individual situation. It's impossible to make blanket statements like that since all food types have their pros and cons, it's more a matter of eating a varied mix of generally healthy things and not just eat only one type of food.
I couldnt agree more. The money has to come from somewhere and i'm not watching any ads so it's the obvious solution. I frankly just use sponsorblock so it autoskips the sponsor spots. But the whole thing is just absurd tbh.
Now i haven't been subscribed to spotify since at least 2015 so things may have changed but when i'm controlling someone elses phone with spotify i pretty much always prefer it to youtube music which has been my main player pretty much since it launched (i wont change for as long as i have yt premium though :p).
Couldn't it just be that they're using something like bcrypt which won't take any chars above its limit into account (knowing that there's a limit will pretty much never matter to a user but why obscure the fact)? What does it even mean to store it reversibly, just because they have a char limit doesn't mean they are encrypting the password, could just be some frontend shenannigans as well.
Try being vegan looking for recipes online, not only do you get the rambling texts with 30 massive images before they actually get to the recipe like every recipe blog these days. The vegan ones also seem to make it a point to get as many weird/rare ingredients as possible into the recipe, (like god damn I just wanted to make a simple chocolate cake, how could you possibly stretch that to 20 ingredients, 9 of which i've never even heard about?)
The best solutions are almost always the boring ones.
I've configured it so that when i open a new tab it will by default open the url to my calendar. It does not select the url in the navigation bar, so if i want to input my own url i first need to select the calendar-url so that my inputs deletes the existing text. I do think that the custom url new-tab is an extension though so that doesn't really help my case (not at the computer so can't check).
I dragged my feet for a long time before switching from chrome to firefox a year or two ago for that exact reason. When I actually did switch it was practically seamless, I haven't run in to any website that has been problematic on firefox but not on chrome. The only thing i dislike is that i haven't found a way to have a custom newtab-page but still be able to directly input text to the navbar, so i always have to do ctrl+t -> ctrl-a.
