Exactly. It's always been likely to be broken by someone at some point. Url shorteners are a thing mostly because of twitters original character limit. Or at least that's when they gained popularity.

Definitely a few of the major things lacking in the Lemmy/kbin world.

What is the deal with that pig anyway? I'm out of the loop, but I've seen it a few times.

Is that split screen on a PC for local coop? How does that work exactly? two keyboards and two mice? Or what?

For what it costs, they should be able to make it work.

I believe that there is an extension for Firefox pwa support, but the Android version definitely supports pwas natively.

Huh? Why?

I'm way out of the loop, but is the issue that they actively make it difficult to use the rendering engine or is it that the cost to modularize it isn't worth the payoff to Firefox itself? A subtle but important distinction IMO. I always felt it was the second, but maybe I was being dense?

That's interesting, I'd be curious to read more about that. Do you have any links to get started with? Searching this type of stuff on Google yields less than ideal results.

The manifest v3 situation does mean other browsers will continue to be able to block ads on YouTube; however, the new drm that Google is proposing for websites would effectively allow YouTube to block any browser they didn't like from viewing the site at all.

That is why signal dropped support for it.theybssid it was to increase security because users could accidentally be using signal sending regular SMS. The way you got lore secure is not how they advertised the removal, but makes sense that happens in some cases. Same thing happened to me.

Yes you can. Paying for a major upgraded version is the alternative to an evergreen subscription, but allows you to milk more usage out of your purchase if you don't need the latest and greatest.

Expecting a one time purchase to entitle you to updates forever is asinine.

The way googles going, it's getting a lot closer than in used to be.

Is that because of the extension marketplace? Or the fact that the debugger has always been closed source?

That's exactly what happened to me too. It was in the background until something disrupted my status quo and then there was no looking back.

I don't have any fears cooking acidic food in my cast iron, I just clean it out afterwards like normal. People way over baby cast iron pans for no good reason.

While that's definitely where we need to aim, chrome has such a massive market share even if all the non chrome browsers band together it might not be enough.

I can see banks and employment sites implementing these things and forcing the hand of the smaller browser. I hope I'm wrong, but that seems likely.

It's the implication that the sync dev is doing something nefarious by charging to remove ads from the free app they developed.

At this point there are multiple updates per day during the beta period. I expect that will settle down once things stabilize, but for now it's definitely prudent to keep checking for updates.

Sad, but possibly accurate. Here's hoping some cities can do enough to get a critical mass of folks making a change.
