Can't post on LW with LW account

Jump

  • Thanks. What a ridiculous restriction. Is LW defederated from lemmy.one? I can't see my other replies from the other account. Is that because dot One allows VPNs?

    • Can't post on LW with LW account

  • That's like saying the guy who hired a hitman to kill his wife isn't responsible because he didn't pull the trigger himself.

    • Can't post on LW with LW account

    Jump

  • I turned my VPN off and was able to comment.

    What gives? Is open source Lemmy blocking VPN's?

  • Testing a comment from my LW account

    • If the "A Quiet Place" aliens come, my neighbors above me, on both sides, and across the hall are all dead. I might get the apartment building to myself.

  • Not if you knifehand them. 🫱

    • Why do you think they don't show Brave here?

    Jump

  • At least the Brave guy's site included many popular browsers and not just the big 5.

    • What are your thoughts on the Arc browser?

    Jump

  • Well, there's a good chance that most people who present technical information publicly are probably involved somewhere in the tech space. Pretty sure the owner of that site also has a disclaimer stating that he in fact works for Brave.

    More directly, is the information on that website inaccurate? Could any other person create a similar website with the same information? Has anyone?

    True facts don't change based on who presents them. Every time I see this "oh don't trust the Brave employee" it's usually someone who is mad that FF isn't the best in whatever category.

  • Are you saying the information presented is somehow incorrect?

    • Skynet is comming...

    Jump

  • Was my wifi SSID since 2009.

    • Nova Launcher Alternative?

    Jump

  • I spent a few hours trying any alternatives I could find on FDroid, even Aurora and just blocking network access.

    Lawnchair has a giant empty space on the dock when you hide the search bar, wasting screen space.

    Ended up back on Nova.

    We need more options. We don't need any more "minimalist" text launchers though.

    • Brave is sunsetting strict fingerprint protection mode

    Jump

  • "Fewer than 0.5% of Brave users are using Strict fingerprinting protection mode, based on our telemetry data."

    Probably because most users who enable strict mode, also disable the telemetry?

    So now we see the effect of disabling telemetry, a negative change in the product.

    Guess its back to Chromite only then.

    • Warship is pronounced like worship, but worship is not pronounced like warship.

    Jump

  • Warship is just the Dollar Store version of the game Battleship.

  • Breaking and entering is okay on Christmas if you use the chimney?

    • You win a dinner of your choice from a personal chef who can make you any food you desire. What would you order?

    Jump

  • Chef Elzar - Grizzly bear, dipped in cornmeal and lightly tormented.

    • Consumer Reports tests VPNs... but won't allow you to log in while using one.

    Jump

  • Since when does FF on Android have "Close All Tabs on Quit"?

    • Proton Drive Camera Backup has Arrived!

    Jump

  • Doesnt show any photos you've already uploaded to Drive (you know, the thousands you'd like to see). Their answer was download everything and reupload it.

    Can't select folders to upload. Defaults to DCIM/Camera.

    Only works with a wifi connection, no option for mobile data.

    • What is a privacy friendly application that you'd love to have, but no one has developed yet?

    Jump

  • Gadgetbridge supports a lot of watches.

    • YSK that if your turn signal is blinking unusually fast (like 3 or more times a second), it generally means you have a bulb out.

    Jump

  • Quick and easy fix for me is 2 hours of tearing apart the entire front end to access the bulb. On a Chevy.

    • Humans were lucky that it worked out that bigger dogs generally are less mean.

    Jump

  • Maybe, but coyotes are not wolves.

    • I think trump might win, and it's due to shitty memory and DND

  • TDS is a condition for which you could seek treatment. Stop letting orange man bad occupy space in your brain.
