Maybe make your point yourself, instead of asking people to Google it for you?

Does that refer to Izzy, or the people who complained because they expressed their opinion?

"All I did was misrepresent something harmless, done by a company that's doing so much more horrible things that I shouldn't be using their product in the first place, and now people are calling me out on it. Clearly, they are wrong."

My bad. I thought clickbait just referred to headlines that don't deliver. Today I learned.

Nope, but it will stop the less determined ones.

With no email verification, you can pretty much create dozens of fake accounts per second - as fast as the API can handle.

Thanks for emphasising I never called the article clickbait, just outrage-bait, circlejerk and low effort. And I do still think posting it here is just that.

I don't know what you're talking about. But seeing as Apple won't even allow other rendering engines on iphones, I doubt Google is bullying them into anything.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's clickbait, but personally I'm not that interested in a retelling of how he started gutting twitter shortly after he bought it last year. Maybe it's not this article per se, just the straw of musk spam that broke the camels back.

Honestly, outrage-bait / circlejerk articles like these is why I stopped using twitter and reddit to begin with. Hur dur, Elon bad, upvotes please. I don't disagree - I just don't want to see this kind of low-effort posts, which OP seems to excel at. Time for a mute.

That's not on Google though, that's on the makers of those websites for not wanting to test and support other browsers. Still shitty behaviour, but not googles shitty behaviour.

On the other hand: nothing looks as cheap as a shattered glass back, or having to use a cover because the default surface is too slippery for 1hand use.

I apologise if I have offended you or made you doubt your worldview.

Funny when the 1 month old account remarks that to the 9 month old account.

Hate to break it to you bub: the only places where the majority of people do not think cryptocurrencies are a scam, are crypto hangouts, and places where they haven't heard about cryptos at all.

Kitty is just rewarding you with petting break for using proper design patterns in your code!

Very likely, yes. I guess it also helps to have quite a broad definition of what being a nazi means.

It's tricky. Once you state "these subjects are above criticism", it will become very easy to silence any criticism. It doesn't take a lot of imagination to see how such a structure could be abused by those in charge of it.

Who watches the watchmen.

I'm not sure where the goal posts are now. I thought this started out with deplatforming single people who spread misinformation, but now you're considering half a countries political spectrum?

A NAS is a home storage server, like Synology that you can use to store images, videos and backups, etc on so you can access them from any computer or device in your home. With a couple of clicks, they can easily run applications like Syncthing or Resilio Sync, which are kinda like Dropbox, except you don't have to pay Dropbox, you'll just be storing the files on your own service.

If that's too much to handle, you can still just store your Keepass file in Dropbox, so that it's available on all your devices. But in the end you'll still be storing your personal data on someone else's harddisk.

So in short, is at easy as using a prefab service? No, you'll have to invest some time, money, and knowledge yourself. But in the end, your data is not gathered in silo together with countless other users, which makes it a lot less attractive for hackers to try and steal it.
