Well, for starters if we looked at lemmy.dbzer0.com we can see the domain is held by tucows which is based in Canada which are a copyright protection friendly country. Sure the server is hosted on njalla.net which is based in Sweden. How hard do you think it would be for the FBI to gain the info they needed to:

1. Figure out who pays the bills and owns the server?
2. Get a copy of the server data for analysis?

The only way to resist this would be to host your instance on the darknet with good sec even then that is not 100%.

I looked at them and the top 10 posts range from how to pirate games on steam deck, to stealing music to stealing books. Seems like they do violate.

They only blocked those communities, not the whole instance and due to the way federation works stuff over there is copied here.

If people leave to run their own piracy lemmy depending on where they host it they will probably get raided and have no lemmy.

The commenter obviously don't understand that at lemmy.world it hosts copies of content outside its instance which is why you block communities if you don't defend the whole instance.

This article did not present a compelling case for abandoning brave. Who cares what the founder thinks about various political issues. If the software is good, then that’s all that matters.

Don’t get me wrong, I support same sex marriage, but people have a right to oppose the concept as marriage is a government idea that is tied up in politics.

Agree. I voted for SSM in Australia. Honestly I think government has no business in relationships but it does for basically healthcare and taxation. How much of modern tech was built off Nazi or other evil creator tech, where do we draw the line? I'm sure Eich isn't the only CIS white male CEO that is anti-SSM but isn't open about it. It comes with a lot of religious bigotry. Do we refuse to use products that faith holders develop?

How about let users choose their experience. IMHO Firefox has a long way to go to recover its golden years and the mobile app is in fact crap so it won't lure me back until performance is fixed. Until then Vivaldi is my main.

I've been trialling lift-off and it's excellent

To be fair, Google does release data to governments so I guess it's both.

This angers me so, so much and every messenger app does it.

The 3 main books are chefs kiss but there is an extended universe.

Also look into the revelationspace books.

Dune all day any day

Thank you sir!

Is there a post with all the different enabled UIs?

I moved from FF to Brave but I'm currently testing Vivaldi, I quite like it.

I found FF on mobile to be flakey.

I joined via fosstodon.org much better recommendations

Yeah I think that's a bit dramatic, just because it's 3 clicks at most and a second to process.

Yeah so their studio gets downsized, closed or merged. The big companies don't care about the people. Tech lost 10k dev jobs last year, plenty of talent out there desperate.

There is about 4 switches on mobile and similar for pc.

1. Brave Rewards tab
2. Brave Wallet tab
3. Appearance tab, Brave wallet icon in search bar toggle
4. New pages tab, Show Sponsored Images toggle

Then you are good.

Code might be open source but the training material and data pipeline is important too.

This is for businesses of scale that have the ability to have multiple fallback vendors. AI will be the same eventually, we didn't have lots of utility alternatives to start with.

I've returned so much stuff to Amazon without query, just a refund. I'd be surprised if you got any pushback as the process is 100% automated.
