I just officially downloaded it and will likely soon jump ship from DuckDuckGo.
Really the biggest thing for me will be not blinding my eyes due to a lack of dark mode outside of search results. (Thanks to using the dark reader add-on in Firefox)
What the hackers do is irrelevant. What matters is that they disclose it to the public so that those affected can take necessary actions. Failure to do so deserve a hefty punishment irrespective of whether or not they pay the hacker
I hear you, but isn't the proverbial horse's head the fact that the EU is looming over them and forcing them to make a move?
RCS and USBC have been available for a while. It seems disingenuous not to acknowledge that Apple has purposely dragged their feet so they could make more profit selling proprietary software and hardware which is probably why you're being downvoted
Experienced the same issue when I tried to sign up 2-3 months. Went down a rabbit hole and then just decided to not host w/ them.
There is a workaround where you can create an account if it is on a different gitlab instance (ie: I was able to join https://git.joinfirefish.org/ w/o the CC info) but I don't know how useful that is in the grand scheme of things.
Google ran the OS for my phone, Home Assistants, Chromebook and tablet. and it always felt like Apple vs Google, and I couldn't help but pull for them.
Once I pivoted to Linux for my Chromebook, I become a tad more objective and as of late, it's clearer that Google do things like purposefully give you different search results so that you can be shown more ads, or suddenly replace the first result of Play Store w/ an ad instead of the searched term so that you click on that instead.
They are an ad company obviously, but as of late, they do things that make me question them more as a company
Yeah, that is the only thing that makes me skim posts about Threads. I feel like they're dragging their feet because they know that they don't offer much different from most of the fediverse alternatives right now yet their users have to give up their privacy.
The lack of ads is beneficial to viewers, but I also think it's worth noting that a disproportionate amount of people creating videos are doing so to hopefully monetize it.
With the fediverse, that seems much more abstract and so I think there might also be a disconnect for some content to make its way over.
If nothing else, it's a portable connection to your desktop. I have telegram on my mobile devices, and I dictate my thoughts into the app and then curate them on my desktop
