Right I forgot about that. That’s also a thing with Mastodon. I think in decentralized Services need to push that there are each other so it doesn’t matter which one that you end up going with. That’s at least what drove me to get on let me in the first place cuz I know that whatever instance I would get on would allow me to participate with everybody else the same way you and me are on different instances right now.
I mean a large problem with services like Lemmy Mastodon and peer tube is that they’re complicated. There’s a learning curve require that I don’t have to have if I go to a place like YouTube or any other video site. Peertube requires me to learn about servers and other things in order to fully utilize their service and that’s a massive barrier to the public. Currently it’s preventing me because I just frankly don’t have time to go learn about more technological Concepts to best use a service.
Don’t get me wrong it’s not a dig at the services. They are excellent and I’m glad they’re here and one day I will figure out peertube but until these sites are as easy to use as going to a link and just doing whatever the person wants to do if they’re just not going to take off. Places like limmy and Mastodon and even peertube need a centralized portal so that is just super easy to start.
I mean yeah I know most pirates won’t use Google and will use other search engines but the majority of people using the internet don’t even know that there are other search engines to use. Keeping them off Google is effective at preventing them from reaching other people.
Tax codes and capitalism at it finest. Companies gonna company
Could someone let me in the joke and tell me what editor this guy’s comparing VScode too?
Oh Zed. I think it’s got promise but cross platform is gonna be necessary for mass adoption.
Interest of avoiding Google’s ad platform which is arguably more invasive you should use a browser in search engine that is not developed by Google thus use duck duck go. I mean it’s at least tangentially related.
Duck duck go has become a pretty good viable alternative to google using it full time now.
I get that warning all the time and it’s just a reminder to go update my browser and update all of my filters for ublock origin. After everything’s updated YouTube goes back to working
“I’m not saying we actually do it it’s the implication that we will do it”
Stopping immigrants at the border would actually be a horrendous policy and have devastating economic effects. Literally advocating for a terrible US policy that could be seen as inhumane and unethical.
Let’s not forget brexit. Americans aren’t alone in their dumbassarry
In theory malicious android apps. In practice they create locked ecosystems that are hard for anyone to break in. No one wants another apple model.
This just feels like fear mongering. Oh no Google says it can’t protect us anymore. Whatever shall we do?
I mean having money and connections to cut through red tape is helpful even if it’s only from his privileged life.
I don’t mean to rag on you dude but I don’t think he started that many companies. His company was bought out by PayPal in like the late '90s, despite being listed as a cofounder he wasn’t a founder of Tesla, I think spaceX was also founded before Musk. He did help these companies succeed though so I suppose credit for that.
The Firefox password manager can be secured with a master password that encrypts everything in your browser password store. Believe it’s pretty secure if you set this password otherwise it’s almost akin to having passwords stored in plain text.

Tell me you have no idea what programming languages are used for without telling me you have no idea what programming languages are used for.
Right? I have been thinking how someone could build something like that. I would love to try my hand at a landing page like that
