You're right - it's great to be able to crosspost, but every fediverse software is totally allowed their own features and if other systems don't display it correctly, that's also ok.

But in this case, Mastodon really is missing some kind of "group" feature. We kind of have this with the a.gup.pe - Tool, but it would be nice to bring some order into that chaos.

So, what would be the best way to "block the internet" on an Android phone while still being somehow able to use it for communication with the family & friends, navigation and stuff like that?

Yeah, but computers and smartphones are kind of like food - people need them, they are not luxury goods. You might be able to use your old laptop a while longer or keep using your broken smartphone, but if it really breaks, you will buy another one regardless of tarrifs.

Yeah, because Manifest v3 is just being rolled out as described in the article.

I mean, algorithms are not bad at all if they are transparent. The "scaled" sorting in Lemmy is an algorithm and it does work great. You can take a look at the source code and see how it works. The problem here is not "algorithms" and we really shouldn't call it "algorithms" - it's tech companies force feeding you content they want you to see and preventing you from seeing the sites/posts/users you are actively following from reaching your feed. What Musk is doing on X is propaganda and we should call it that

duckduckgo browser is based on Chromium (as nearly every other "alternative" browser is) and therefore will use Manifest v3 and neuter uBlock.

To totally confuse you: The USA uses the "standard litre" while Europe uses "normal litre":

If they gave more time than just a few months, in example at least an entire year, then people could at least download those files before hand. Not sure how long this would take and how stressful this would be for their servers.

They could also give the option to pay for this. They should know what storing a video costs and therefore could give creators the chance to cover that cost.

There are better gadgets to track your sleep. If you want to just track how you're sleeping, get a cheap fitbit. Withings or Apple Watch are also able to detect sleep apnea

Just imagine how much energy it must cost to provide this garbage to every mail going through Yahoos servers.

Let's be honest: Everything that might be "worse" or "annoying" in Firefox for someone is not relevant in comparison to "no working adblocker available". A browser without adblock is unusable

  • a $2000 bed
  • with a $19/month subscription
  • which is a full linux computer
  • full of security holes
  • that allows the company to ssh into your bed
  • that totally could give those guys access into your local network
  • the CEO is flirting with DOGE and is offering them free beds
  • they are tracking your sleep data and tweeting about it

WTF?
