At one point, "meme" was only synonymous with those rage faces. This was the 9gag days. It really grinded my gears. And this was indeed caused by normies adopting the term.

The picture is not necessarily the meme. The format is. That's where you're gatekeeping. Posting a random new picture with a caption on top, that's still a meme format.

A meme is any reusable, repeated format, literally speaking. You're just gatekeeping.

It's literally just some text on a picture...?

I miss the menu key so much.... It was the way I accessed the spelling corrector. Using a mouse for that is so cursed. The menu key had other uses too as the context is useful.

They can't stop me from not buying these sinful machines either.

Isn't the only reason Ireland isn't in Schengen because of the UK?

Yup. We don't need more half members. Either join fully, or don't join at all. And that means currency and schengen, not just the market.

Australia could be a bike paradise with so much space.

My FP4 is pushing it's 5 year. I love how the FP6 looks but I can't help but wonder if Fairphone is able to keep up with the software developement work. The last year has been shaky, between bricked devices and serious android memory bugs. I want to believe in the project but it's getting harder and harder.

I'm not sure the majority of games is DRM free though. But youve got a point.

 
 
 

I'm not one to usually diss new UI changes, but this one grinds my gears.

Firefox for Android has released a new menu design. It organizes everything a little differently, which is alright it looks fresh. But 2 things are really annoying and a continuous design trend in Firefox.

  • The option to open page in external app has been tucked away in a sub menu. I used this often and it was in the top level menu before. Companies just love hiding things in menus for no reason.
  • the option to open a private tab as a normal tab is GONE. This is how I use Firefox: someone sends me a link, I click on it and it opens in a private tab by default. If I need to sign in to see it (e.g. private Instagram links) then I open it in a normal tab. This option is now simply gone.

So yeah that's my rant. I'll see if I open a bug requesting the 2nd issue back.

 
 

I personally been using it for almost 5 years. I heard about it from a colleague a few years before that but I forgot about it, and then an online ad reminded me to check them out again.
