  Some good observations and some software suggestions, but I don’t think all of them are good. I hate Anubis when I’m using an assisted accessible browser (that it locks out, always saying a solution is coming but it never has, which I’m pretty sure is illegal discrimination in some situations) and they really ought not recommend Proton without mentioning its chief supporting Trump and helping French police track climate activists.

  Other tips, including Lemmy, are better.

    Proton’s CEO does not support trump. And they didn’t help the French police, they were obligated to follow a legal order to turn over data to their own government.

    Those are both gross misrepresentations of the truth, and you know good and well how dishonest you’re being. And before you get angry, I’m not writing this for you, I’m writing it for the people who don’t know that you’re knowingly spreading misinformation.

      A great Medium article on the topic that analyzes the entire situation: (coming to the conclusion that no, Proton does not really seem to be in favor of Trump/MAGA at all given their actual actions, and how the original statement was misinterpreted)

  I’m all for internet “dying”. Let it become a hostile environment filled with garbage and ads on the mainstream social media level. Hopefully people will get fed up with it and focus on real life again. Leave the dark corner of weird interfaces, console commands and modifications to nerds.

    Whatever you call it, the Internet is changing and enshitifying. For many it's the death of what it was. The new restrictions and push for chat control/censorship.

    AI may just be a tool. And people may be over reacting. But it's inarguable it's being overwhelming leveraged by abject evil.

      The internet, in its various forms, has died several times now, and it will die and be replaced with something else probably uncountable times in the future.

    I have to agree.

    The internet is not dying, and AI can’t be evil since it is an inanimate thing that is niether good or evil. But it does suck.

      This model does not seem to be trained for recipes.

  We’re all far too dumb to be sharing our thoughts so widely and easily. The internet needs to go.
