Didn't uninstall any of my AdBlock layers, but YouTube didn't survive.
Even though I actually never saw the famous popup, the whole thing made me take steps after months of feeling that the recommendations sucked and I was often wasting lots of time watching stuff I didn't even like.
Now I'm actually getting back into reading and audiobooks, and using invidious for the occasional watch.
I'm gonna switch to tumbleweed just for this, wanna have it as soon as stably possible
Yeah I've also been having issues with fedora and been thinking of switching to Arch... Looking forward to it
Probably there are many places with no specific provisions against that but surely that would count for authorities as some sort of disruption of traffic, which are intentionally vaguely defined to cover such ambiguous eventualities.
A shame, I think it would be neat.
Amazing how every single part of your comment is so wrong.
It's actually a really good analogy,
Not an analogy, an example. Those two are different things.
because it can only run on
No, it can run on many things, including open source collaborative hardware that exists.
fully-capitalist hardware.
What the hell even is that? Fun fact: until very recently most of the computer hardware was made in communist China. I know, scary. And now that a lot of effort is being made to get that production out of there, those efforts are being sponsored by public money to an incredible degree. Billions of dollars of taxes (you know, community resources) are being poured into that because big corporations are the biggest lovers of government handouts.
Probably not what he meant, but it has happened twice now to me that I wear shoes that had been stored for a year without use, but in good condition. After I used them for half an hour or an hour, the rubber sole crumbles literally in little pieces.
Waaaaaay too optimistic lol, but nevertheless somewhat interesting.
that would be great of course but you know who's very ready to double down and lose billions instead of saying 'uhmm you know what I think I was wrong and I need to correct course'?
yeah that guy
not directly making money but they can keep creditors at bay by showing not so ugly MAU numbers
i'm not gonna say to anybody that they should stop using twitter right now or they are morally evil, but I would say to everyone that it would be so funny that banks took twitter from him if things declined too much
Been using it for a couple of years now I think. Haven't seen a reason not to like it.
There's a thread in GitHub where the privacyguides.org guys discussed some flaws in the encryption but that was at the very beginning, I remember reading those have been solved apparently.
Pricing, well, it seems cheap but honestly I think it's just because we are used to seeing outrageous prices for ridiculously small amounts of storage. Thinking about it, 30 eur for 100gb is not cheap at all, like some other comment says when compared to physical drive prices. Plus, offering lifetime is a common marketing technique to attract customers used by small or starting businesses. I don't know if that is the case here but it certainly isn't an automatic red flag for me. I don't know if they are gonna be around next year or 5 years from now, but I'm willing to take the risk. They claim to have lots of users and be cash flow sustainable, plus they keep developing and are getting into business features to attract that kind of customers, certainly doesn't look like a business on life support to me.
App and code-wise, they are much better than they were a year ago. Android app is still a bit janky sometimes but I don't use it a lot so I got not much to say, other than I can see my files and upload something small once in a while just fine. The desktop client is amazing, the best functioning client for Linux that I have used from any service, or from the few services that have a Linux client at least. The clients are open source and since the service is e2ee you don't really need to see the server code if the client encryption is done correctly, which apparently there is no sign that it isn't, as mentioned before.
Overall I would say you can use it, but keep a backup somewhere else just in case, which is just the thing that anyone should be doing anyways.
Well at least I'm gonna get to see it since now the vaccine will kill everyone who took it 'within 10 years' instead of 2 as it was originally predicted.
uh? what does that mean? maybe that's an ultrarich thing when your clothes are actually worth some amount? do people actually have some way of legal ownership of clothes other than 'yeah I paid for them, no I don't have any receipts but they are inside my house and nobody will claim otherwise therefore they are mine'?
