  • Mobile web sites that disable pinch to zoom. I've always enabled the setting in Firefox to allow it on all sites, but I still occasionally find one that somehow manages to override my preference.

    Dear devs: There is no reason to ever disable it. It's hostile to all users, and especially those with impaired vision.

  • Most of them can be bypassed with uBlock Origin, and if they can't then I treat that site as if it doesn't exist

  • I'm ... quite sure there were many posts about the issue on reddit, with one app in particular becoming paid and people actually losing access to some data, but either these posts have been deleted, or I'm tripping balls because I can't locate them now.

    I'm going to err on the side of not potentially slandering a dev further and delete my comment. I hope no damage was done.

  • I feel like public libraries are a pretty good canary in the coal mine

    Shit's scary

  • I'm glad I read this post because I certainly don't plan to visit the site.

    Everything is bad, but a highlight for me is Ellen Degeneres posting "Welcome to Gay Twitter!" as if she is still relevant or respected by us LGBT+ people, and as if a site created by The Zuck to appeal to the type of person who thinks Miracle Whip is too spicy could ever be "gay" anything.
