they just posted it in front of a video and wouldn’t let me watch anything until I disabled my adblocker.

I’ve never had this happen to me with Firefox + ublock origin.

If you want youtube on mobile, I recommend Libretube. Or just use mobile Firefox with ublock origin.


Yes, it’s basically a Instagram replacement. They recently implemented a UI overhaul and it’s nice.


Ohh neato! Dan’s been doing great things with pixelfed.


Yooo I was thinking of getting rid of Spotify, so ty for sharing this!


Nice, I love that this niche market has competition.



I haven’t gotten a booster in awhile and no one I know wear a mask anymore where I live. Plus kids are back in school and my eldest niece and nephew live with me; they are walking plague carriers.

So I will happily get this one.


The bigots who are only pretending to care about kids will never, ever, be satisfied, because they’re fascists.

Moving queer-themed and poc/minority books to “age appropriate” sections is just the start.

Eventually they’ll want them either removed or heavily censored.

Then straight up banned entirely; this includes banning the sale of those books.





Nope, Disney isn’t in financial difficulty. This was their plan from the beginning. Lure people in with low prices, then slowly raise them after gutting the catalogue of available movies and shows.




I wouldn’t go to Texas either. Fuck that noise.


Citizens Defending Freedom, a national group that is simultaneously pushing to ban books elsewhere in Texas

Freedom for only some, but fuck everyone else- The GOP

Dubbed by critics as “Moms for Liberty in suits,” Citizens Defending Freedom is increasingly playing a role in local politics across Texas. A national organization that promotes Christian conservative candidates and policies at the local level, Citizens Defending Freedom frames their mission in tones that are common among promoters of Christian dominionism—a theological movement which posits that America is a Christian nation ordained by God and that Christians must take authority over all aspects of society.

Oh gods these freaks want a Theocracy. Those always result in persecution and corruption.



You completely misunderstood my original post, and from the looks of it, you’re doing it on purpose. Bye.


I would love it if his father bothered to put in effort in raising my eldest nephew, but that isn’t going to happen sadly.

And I never insinuated the right was doing a good job???




Maybe I’m blind but I’m not seeing a way to follow tags on Firefish (I joined the main instance because the UI convinced me).


I partially blame the Left for not addressing mental health issues for our younger boys and men and not doing a better job at expressing what healthy, happy masculinity actually looks like. So the likes of Andrew Taint, Joe Rogan, Matt Walsh and the likes basically swooped in and took that over.

I’ve got a 15 year old nephew who’s starting his Sophomore year in like a week. I’ve already heard him say some rather disturbing extremist right-wing shit, and sadly his father fucking sucks at being a father so correcting him hasn’t been easy for me (I’m the aunt, his mother is not currently in the picture). And he says this shit with his little sister around too.


It’s a Authenticator for 2FA like Authy.

Tbh I prefer it over Googles own Authenticator app. Glad I made the switch.


I swapped to Aegis not long ago and 100% recommend it.




what is the motivation for creating media or game content?

As a digital artist I can say it’s for the love of the art.

I imagine it’s similar for modders and anyone with basically any hobby.


Buying an ebook from Amazon but then pirating an epub version of the same book (Calibre currently unable to crack Amazon’s newest DRM since earlier this year).

People are basically just renting their books from Amazon right now; you don’t really “own” it if you can’t read/listen to it on other devices and apps. That never sat right with me, and when I decided to leave the Kindle ecosystem, I couldn’t read those same ebooks in other apps. So now I refuse to ever buy any of my books from Amazon and am currently using Libby for most of my audiobooks/ebooks and B&N for the physical artbooks I want.

Sadly a lot of the indie authors I read are part of Amazon’s KU, so their books are not legally available outside of that ecosystem. =( So I’ve stopped reading them.


Holy crap, I downloaded Tachiyomi cause of you and I’m absolutely loving it already. Makes reading all my manhwas on my phone so much easier.



Which is why it’s important to encourage and educate as many about it as possible now.




But at the very least they have a business model that does not consist of selling all my data to the highest bidder.

You can’t possibly believe that.

Now, will they comply with law enforcement, usually yes. That’s part of running a company, and that’s a good thing. But what do you expect?

I expect my encrypted data to remain encrypted and out of the laws hands.


TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero:RED IEM’s on sale for $34
The TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero:RED IEM's are on sale for $34 on Amazon for anyone interested in fantastic IEM's on a budget. I woke up earlier, expecting to pay the original $54.99 for them, so this is such a great surprise. They are mostly neutral IEM's which decent bass, and the cord can be replaced should you ever need/want too. Not trying to be a shill, was honestly stoked when I saw they were on sale and just wanted to share that joy with anyone else potentially in the market for some IEM's. My Turtle Beach Battle Buds are dying so I needed something new, quick. I also wasn't entirely sure where to post this. 🤷🏻‍♀️
