Ripe bananas.

It is best to move to Firefox because fundamentally the chromium project thrives because of Google ,an Ad company. It is not worth using chromium derivatives.

Just goes to show how a GDPR like law should be enforced in all countries. If you can’t edit or delete your own content, it certainly infringes on your rights.

Lets take the example of Reddit. Reddit could have kept its costs to the minimum and could have run the site with the ad revenue that came in. In fact they could have talked transparently about their opex and asked for a simple donation drive every now and then like Wikipedia. If need be, they could have removed silly GIF replies and other stuff and focused on text alone. However this would not let them become the next Facebook. That’s what they wanted to be. At some point in their story was a choice to be forums 2.0 or get into a race to become a cash grab. Sadly they went for the latter.

I have used freetube on windows. I assume adblock is in browser context here, so freetube should skip the browser completely.

Thanks to the blackout I got to know about lemmy. Otherwise may never have tried this. Now I know , it might be hard to go back. If my favourite subreddits end up here or have their own instances, it will be great. But even if they don’t , I am done with reddit. The quality of comments in reddit has been in the downward direction for a long time now. I remember when I stopped using digg. It was upgraded to mongo db and nothing was available for a while. That was when I went to reddit and forgot about digg completely. Reddit blackout is when I joined lemmy.world and forgot about reddit 😂
