They're just being dicks considering how tiny the Firefox userbase is

I fully expect to have to be fingeprinted, DNA tested and retinal scanned to access cOnTenT in a year or two

The Titanic is a legendary ship, but it wasn't a very good ship

The author points out that Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript, co-founder (and ex-CEO) of Mozilla, and founder of Brave, donated 1,000 USD in support of a proposition to ban same-sex marriage.

My impression was Brave got started after he got hoofed out of Mozilla or left on his own accord after the backlash for showing his ass to be a homophobe. Redditor types were of course very angry about this blatant disregard for frozen peaches and jumped onto his new venture in droves

I'm assuming this will escalate to some insanely locked down DRM scheme. Guess I'll enjoy uBlock, ReVanced and yt-dlp while I can

Here's hoping uBO manages to stay on top of the adblock arms race after this shit gets rolled out to everyone 🤞

It seems to be happening to people regardless of the browser they're using. Google's currently only testing the new measures on random accounts

Probably related to the issues I began having yesterday with Revanced- suddenly, videos started to infinitely buffer after around 1 minute of playing.

Google's definitely doing something.

Oh shit, you're right! I just saw a bunch of wingdings looking symbols and my eyes clouded over. This'll save some time in the future, thanks!

The culture is still shaped by Lutheranism

You only had to do that once? In the initial phase I just couldn't get rid of the pop-ups for longer than one session

Yeah, as good as Youtube's algorithms are at pushing hardcore right-wing content on completely fresh accounts in like 3 clicks, my accounts have been around for so long that my recommends tend to be on the money most of the time.

I discover multiple new channels each month from my recommends whereas 10 years ago I'd occasionally check a channel that a friend recommended or was embedded on a forum post

Oh, definitely but it's shockingly bad when using YT without logging in

What was the last time?
