You mean a "contact form?" They're everywhere.

Interesting: I live in Asia, and I can opt out too, so thanks!

I am European (but currently living in Asia). I don't identify with my country of birth. However, I do feel connected to the Franco-Alemannic culture space that I grew up in. The languages, literature, arts and crafts, architecture, food, music etc. are way more important to me than the colour of my passport or the madhouse that is politics.

Amongst other things, I always carry some zip ties. They weigh nothing, yet come in handy in so many ways.

Yes, I tried to "wget -S" some of that stuff in the Linux console. Yikes!

Yes, personally I use DDG more than Google, but we are in our 70ies, so it would be hard to convince the wife (who has been a dev 40 years ago) to change her habits. I am already looking into SearXNG, though.

I changed the user-agent of my browser to "Error: No browser installed". Can't be more unique than that, I guess. That was 30 years ago, though, I don't think it will hurt me today 😆

Very helpful command it was for those, whose modem had to be rebooted daily back in the day: Have a cron-job open the tray, which in turn was placed strategically so that it would hit the reset button of the modem, then close the tray. And voilà; automatic reboot of the modem. Robotics at its finest!

Apart from fzf that helps me find recently used commands and also files and directories easily, I also use tldr that gives you a simple cheat sheet for every command and very often saves you trawling through endless man pages.

That was my first thought as well.

I had the same issue here. Maybe this helps you as a workaround?

I found a something similar issue here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2666

And that sees to be it. I could set the lemmy.world cookie to "lax" using a cookie manager extension. Now it seems to work, both with F5 and when I leave Firefox.

Thanks for the idea. All my browsers are Deb packages, no Snap/Flatpack/AppImage. I am still on Ubuntu for now, but I try to stay away from Snaps wherever I can due to slightly less-than-stellar experiences.

Ha! Thank you! Alexandrite works normally. Not my taste, though. 😀

Is there anything I can do now, or will I have to work with Alexandrite until the normal ui fixes itself somehow?

Thanks bunches for putting up with me. 👍
I have tried all privacy settings, no change. Where can I change the ui, please; it's not in my account settings?

And Lemmy is the only site that does this. I do not have this issue with any other site, including other Fediverse sites like Mastodon or Pixelfed.

Thanks a lot!

It happens on Firefox (130), Vivaldi and a pretty virgin Chromium. Firefox is a little worse, in that if I press F5 to just reload a page, I am logged out again, no matter the security setting. This does not happen on the other browsers. I don't really know what to look for in the console; it shows errors in fonts, things like 'line-height' and such, nothing that would give me a hint. However, I am not a web-developer and could easily overlook something.

I use external hard drives. Two of them, and they get rsynced every time something changes, so there's a copy if one drive should fail. Once a month, I encrypt the whole shebang with gpg and send it off into an AWS bucket.

Terminator for me. It has tiles and tabs and does everything I need.

Shamed be he who thinks naughty of it. 🤣

Not sure, whether it is relevant for this thread, but my phone (POCO F3) does not get any notifications if Google Play Services has no access to the internet. I scratched my head for a while to find out, why I never got them on mobile data. Not sure, what it does, if you disable the store.
