I believe the correct name is “Y’all-Qaeda” :)

Pihole will also block non-browser traffic (e.g. your OS phoning home). Adblocking extensions are typically restricted to just blocking traffic of the browser it’s installed on.

It also operates on your entire home network, so it can block junk traffic on devices that can’t run adblockers.

They're taught to follow set rules, ask for permission, and be ashamed if they fail. They're not taught to learn, they're taught to work.

This might be even more ingrained in German culture.

No, the article says that Epic Games “laid off 16% of its [Epic Games’] workforce, or 830 employees”.

I believe Bandcamp was ~120 people total – so 60 laid off.

Not sure if it’s even possible though in current enterprise/governmental structures :(

Yeah... sadly, it's already difficult enough getting governments to even agree that internet infrastructure itself should be a public utility. Even though it has long been at the point where you absolutely need it to participate in society (depending on where you live, of course) and largely been funded by the public through taxes.

My current understanding is that you can only block individual communities, not entire instances.

It’s a bit unfortunate — I would also like to block at the instance level.

Some other decent ones in my opinion:

  • Styx: Master of Shadows
  • Styx: Shards of Darkness
  • Thief (2014)
  • Aragami
  • Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun (really liked this one)
  • Monaco

I would give both Dishonored and Prey a shot — I had a better time with those than Deathloop.

I've always had good experiences with Audionews

There will still be a lucrative black market for weed since this law doesn’t really allow for commercial sale, which is quite unfortunate. Cant have that weed cutting in on the beer mafia profits :)

It does allow for “cannabis clubs” that can supply up to 500 members (whose names will be put on a list). So that’s nice. But it’s definitely not going to be enough.

At least it’s a step forward. And really great that individuals can’t be arrested/fined for consuming a plant with their own body.

No humans = nothing around to construct the concept of problems or to philosophize on their existence or solutions.

Everything solved!

Heheh. No problems at all…

But yeah, despite being an alleged champion of privacy, Germany kind of misses the point with much of their implementation (of any privacy-related legislation).

From the web interface it's pretty easy. You can either go to the community page and click the "Block Community" button in the sidebar, or you can go to your Settings

or you can go to Settings -> Blocks and manually search for the community to block there

If you're using a mobile app it will depend on how the app has implemented it, but generally it involves going to the community page and tapping the hamburger/meatball (3 lines/3 dots) menu and selecting Block from there (might have to view the Sidebar, then block from there).

It seems not all of the apps have implemented blocking yet. I can't seem to find a way to do it in wefwef, but Mlem and Memmy have it, for example.
