24·1 year agoIs it possible that they offloaded the scraping to a different company to avoid direct litigation now theyre out in the open? To say “we didn’t scrape your website, and you can’t prove it.”
Like DDG, Ecosia, Qwant use Bing for their data Or how feds buy data from data brokers. Outsource the dirty job like every tech company does and shift the blame if caught doing something unlawful.
It seems they are trying to garner some positive PR after they scraped through everything without anyone noticing.
Open source and self-hostable
Why stick to the worse one, though?
Why is mastodon the worse one?
Many people coming from twitter run from the fediverse, because they’re told there’s nothing other than mastodon, which they find hard to use, lacking and extremely toxic.
Why is everyone so adamant that Mastodon should accommodate to users leaving Twitter by being a Twitter clone? It was meant to be federated, privacy friendly, self-hosted, less toxic twitter alternative for small communities , not a clone of Twitter. People act like everyone becomes seasoned to using Twitter or other mainstream social media websites by default and it’s mastodon’s fault they leave because its not exactly like Twitter. It’s pretty straightforward to forget all about the fediverse and rant all day, just like Twitter.
It’s one thing to improve UX for users and another thing entirely to specifically chaperone users leaving Twitter, which is not Mastodon’s goals.
which package are you on? i’ve been wanting something like that
Thanks! I’ve been trying to replace Adidas Running (formerly Runtastic) so i’ll give it a try. Runtastic bugs you to accept their TOS too often which needs internet. And If you’re in the middle of the run, you can’t get past that screen to view the stats. 🤦
Needing a different app for viewing map seems a little inconvenient though.
Hence the rumors that the feds and state actors do the most of it.
you need pay a subscription every year to publish your app on the app store. You can sign your app and install it but it’s temporary and you need to repeat it every time it expires afaik.
But you need a mac for it. Don’tyou just love Apple’s fancy walled gardens?
Safari is a very thin set of changes to WebKit, you can just run & build WebKit nightlies,
you don’t seem to understand software licenses, so please stop overselling yourself. Just because a software uses open source code, it doesn’t automatically become open-source. You’re first claim was Safari is open-source. It’s not
and compiling a browser for webdev. lol
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.

Which beta? I’m on Signal beta on Android and it isn’t there yet. The screenshot does look like an iphone
Humans are an invasive species.
Your server might query search engines with a clean slate, but the search engine has its own history for your cloud server’s IP address. Cookies aren’t the only thing big tech use to track users.
or do you use multiple IP addresses?
“Science communication is hard so I’m going to play a game while explaining science, cuz that’s not distracting at all.”
It just wasn’t for me and I lost interest after a few minutes
I always had doubts about scientific theories on atomic particles and space but they were theory for a reason. Theory is what the word means, it is based on many assumptions. Like the big bang is a theory, It leads scientist to explore it from multiple angles through validation and verification (because science is hard). They are never put out as a fact. So I don’t even know what point she’s trying to make.
Neo launcher for me. it’s on fdroid.
it’s not perfect and can get buggy, but once you set it up, and don’t mess with the settings too much. it’s acceptable replacement for Nova launcher.
Had nova prime, but switched after the buyout
1·1 year agodid you mean E2EE? I don’t think signal is P2P. the signal server relays the messages in between users
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?
