The first step toward meaningful change begins with us. We must abandon our craving for glossy (and therefore glassy) devices, and instead embrace hardware that may not be as immediately pleasing to the eye (as it is the case with e.g. Fairphones or the PinePhone), but is built to be slightly more durable, somewhat repairable, and capable of outlasting even today’s limited commitments to software updates.
Fairphone and PinePhone being only mentioned anecdotally for being pleasing to the eye, and I guess not as sturdy as the author wants, is quite weird for an article about reducing fragility and improving repairability.

I assume it’s done that way to prevent an IDN homograph attack.
For example if I sent you a link to “gооgle.com” you’d be like, sure. Except that isn’t a link to “google” it’s a link to “xn–ggle-55da.com”.

Nothing special, it’s that’s how urls with unicode, non ascii chatacters look like. It’s called punycode, more info: en.wikipedia.org/…/Internationalized_domain_name

They have such a custom site. In a good way. Works well with RSS :)
