I think i'm going to stick with my 6a until they move to their own processor (that's not exynos)

I'm curious, If I delete my account periodically, are the profile and activity like comments/votes still out there in other instances? are votes deducted? I'm not sure if this is the right question but does deleting accounts federate?

If this also affects other bacteria and germs, wouldn't that mean people would not build up immunity to anything around them. It's reasonable for places like airports, hotels, and public spaces and subways but not "everywhere"

It's almost like when companies try to build a wall, some people will try to break in, even for the sake of it, maybe the thrill of it, even if it worked for a minute.

Whatever their intentions, I'm glad they did. Apple got to strengthen their infrastructure (somewhat, users are still using it with access to a Mac), and it brought messaging interoperability conversation to congress.

BSD overtake Linux or Windows in some areas

Any examples? besides the well known security, lower footprint and simplicity. genuinely curious.

Looks like they have valid reasons for doing this

Yea, the company does not want to be an accessory for crime or illegal activity. That's to be expected if they want to keep their business running. But that won't stop people from raging and claiming the project is now going to die.

Government backing billionaires and Billionaires corrupting government. And normal people being told to adjust their lifestyle to "save the planet" was one of the greatest lie ever told.

Some people on fediverse seem obsessed with every petty little thing twitter/facebook and their owner do, and sometimes making up lies like this one. Text filters are sorely needed on kbin.

You know you can add additional text along with the link, right? like the headline of the news?

Aren't beta versions by nature, unscheduled?

The ability to customize the css and functionality of any web page without code

Isn't that something other browsers have been able to do for ages with add-ons like stylus, greasemonkey and others. it doesn't seem all that groundbreaking.

People might be hesitant to download a different browser what they can accomplish with a simple addon.
