In app ads are removed, but what about the tracking and then showing you ads on other sites and services is that also removed when you pay? I can say that uBlock still killed hundreds of trackers on my paid outlook premium account.
It's already on the way, the office app "outlook" has a "new outlook" mode, which is this same web based version that only talks to Microsoft servers, so even if you use a non Microsoft email account, Microsoft takes your credentials,syncs your email to their server and then shows it to you through the web outlook.
That sounds awful. Imaging going back and forth requesting changes until it gets it right. It'd be like chatting with openai only it's trying to merge that crap into your repo.
Yes. Technically, no, you will still be able to have a very simple ad blocking addon, but for all practical purposes, mv3 will kill ad blockers as we know them today.
It's pretty bad on PC as well, with more and more games requiring kernel level anticheat software. I wish I had something positive to say. Just lots of bad news coming out in gaming it seems.
Agreed. It seems unlikely reddit will add new useful features to old, and RES has coverage on the existing interface and doesn't need anything new so it's not like lack of new features is a bad thing here.
I'm not sure, but if you draw the ven diagram of people that can recognize an issue with their cars heater core (and know what that is) stop and fill the radiator with coolant and the ven diagram of people that would understand what's wrong with their washing machine and attempt a repair themselves is just a circle.
I know the people outside that circle exist, but they really should spend a few minutes learning how things they depend on work, to save a few dollars in their spreadsheet.
Yes, and host it on Proton. They are pretty reasonably priced compared to paid offerings by Microsoft and Google, and even if you pay them you are still the product. With proton you are the customer.
Interesting perspective and makes me think that's why the 18+ screen mega theatre is dying today. Not enough of those kinds of films to keep that many screens going and draw people in.
I've seen it a few times on different sites. Very strange. The strangest was when the different story was on the same topic, so I didn't realize at first.
I tend to agree with your summary of the generations, but my experience in life sounds largely similar to yours, so some obvious bias there. The future you paint feels almost inevitable, and I hate every bit of it. Yet I can't find any reasonably effective way to change it.
I'm not so sure. Black Friday shopping barely kept up with inflation this year, but cyber Monday shopping was up over 12%, so while I'm with you in the minority that prefer a real quality store, it seems most folks don't.
That assumes that because they're paying they aren't also tracking. They might not use it for ads directly but they'll still sell it to others that will show you ads off Facebook.
