“I might try to put up a (compliant) post a day for a half-fortnight”?

It’s an ad in your post, fittingly (although yours isn’t particularly ironic).

Do you know of oulipo.social? No fifth symbols found on all of that domain.

I liked when the US National Honey Board funded a study that compared honey, cane sugar, and HFCS and found they’re all about the same (and all raised a key blood fat, a marker for heart disease).

Of course, the truth is that sugar’s sugar and you should have limited amounts of it, but when it’s as cheap as HFCS is in the States, they can stick it in everything.

I’ve had that before and I’m very confident the password was correct - my theory is that they’d changed how non-ASCII characters like £ were handled and their code only half recognised my password.

Changing a total of three lines is hardly worth mentioning.

As a professional software I know that the actual typing is hardly any of the work - let alone on someone else’s code!

And you’re a developer too, so you know this. This minimising of his contributions comes across as you arguing in bad faith, not to mention backing up the complaints about your hostile attitude.

In addition, the “Search Bar” settings in Settings > Search, which let you choose between using the address bar for search and navigation or add the search bar in the toolbar, is also gone in Firefox 122.

This doesn’t affect me, but I’m sure there’s going to be a vocal tiny percent that absolutely hate this news.

I don’t think you can count the sites that just mirror Reddit comments.

Searching on lemmy.ml shows the top being several [email protected] megathreads with comments in the thousands, then that [email protected] post you highlighted, more [email protected] threads, then a [email protected] megathread about Hexbear’s federation. I guess we can see who comments the most.

I liked this [email protected] post Your username is the prompt, what did you get? which has 1618 comments.

Deycan’t believe it’s true.

Memes with a history lesson - this is a format I’d like to see take hold.

I wonder how many of of the memes here would benefit from having a lay person explanation, or if that would just be like the frog dissection quip.

Yeah, that got old very quickly, although things like the old Reddit switcharoo* always got an upvote, but the original comment needed creativity and the stock reply needed to link the the previous example. It was cool that it was a different experience each time and that the network grew, occasionally branching, and had maintainers that made sure you could follow without hitting a deleted part dead end.

* after half a year I had to use a search engine to get the name

But here I wrote all of this, instead of just the word “This”

Ah, you mean a ninja edit. Yes, this should be allowed.

I just tested and it definitely isn’t.

All the ones I actually want on my phone worked already, but this is still good news.

I used to see them in the UK. Perhaps they’re making the boxes stronger to save needing the plastic, or maybe it’s just smaller pizzas/boxes don’t need them.

My point is that social media management tools already exist, so why do you think the Fediverse needs to “consider it”? I don’t understand what you’re expecting.

This isn’t a Fediverse-specific topic, that I can see. This is something that’s fairly trivial to do - there’s already services that will post to multiple channels (“social media management tools” seems to be best search term). In these ten months you could have written one yourself!

Also, the main point of POSSE seems to be that you control your own domain and space online, and everything else points back to that. That assumes that your main way of communicating is via publishing chunks of content, of course, which is patently not true. It also assumes that everyone’s way more technical than they are - plenty of people call their browser “the internet” and would glaze over the second you started talking about domain names, etc.

Your comment confused me since I thought you were saying the EFF was cancer at first.

Obligatory mention that Firefox Mobile supports plugins like uBlock Origin. You don’t have to suffer this rubbish!

Oh, so css is in there - I’d assumed it would be a false positive.

They misspoke: Hurd will be usable in year 1970!
