Not really despite having been invaded from north africa the spanish caliphate gained its independence after the fall of the Oumayads . then divided into smaller independent Emirates until the Spanish conquest.
My experience was that when solving captchas where you select pics on the grid and other pics load and replace the selected ones within the same round. in firefox it tends to play those fade-in fade-out very slowly. while on chrome they appear instantly.
Unfortunatly I can't expand my obveservation just based on my own anecdotal experience. have you noticed the same behaviour ?
I don't think that Tor relies entirely on trust. it rather relies on the probability that there needs to be at least half of entry and exit nodes compromised for a attacker to be able to deanonymize users trying to access the clearnet. the hidden network is even harder to deanonymize as there are more than 6 hops in the path. and all nodes participating in the network are visible.
proton on the other hand can do what ever they please on their servers and can never get caught with it.
Never forget every email that leaves Protonmail to other email providors are not anymore secure or encrypted as using gmail or others.
Second no one can certify that incoming emails and meta-data can't be read and recorded to a ghost mailbox before getting encrypted. you have no control on what happens on their servers
For one, the thing I liked about lemm.ee is that they don't seem to enforce an ideology on its users, I consider every participant on this forum to have enough intellectual baguage to deal with propaganda from both sides and to forge their own view on all matters. so as long as people from different instances engage with good faith and arguments they can support with evidence. I can still do my own filtering and banning without having to call for the higher police.
With that said I see alot of distastefull Big ass Gif polluting every controversial thread hexbearians engage with and It makes me just close the thread and not bother reading through the mess or respond to it. I hope it will stop or infinity for lemmy adds a switch to hide those types of comments.
My Opinion for now is wait and see, If they can tune down the edgy shity comments then I can take their opposing oponions, If they keep on polluting the conversation I guess I will be fine if you axe them.

By your logic even the USA is still a british colony.
