- Comment on 1000+ Firefox for Android extensions now available – Mozilla Add-ons Community Blog 5 days ago:
If you are self hosting front end alternatives like teddit or nitter, libredirect is a great tool. Now, even when I browse the internet on my tablet, the extension will redirect to my server instance instead

💀 at making it a men’s rights issue.
From my perspective, it’s toxic to always get your audience worked up over minute things. That kind of content is what I tried to avoid hence my move to Lemmy

Is this the guy who always is over the top with his emotions in his videos?
- Comment on My opinion on Bone conduction earphones 4 weeks ago:
Gotcha. I almost exclusively ride on a bike path so it doesn’t quite fit my needs, but I’ll keep an eye out for them regardless
- Comment on My opinion on Bone conduction earphones 4 weeks ago:
When cycling, did you find that they worked as good as or better than noise canceling earbuds to reduce wind?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Try reading the actual article. I use Firefox (via floorp) but came away with the perspective that wasn’t as nefarious as I expected. I don’t trust Google it won’t be switching back to Chrome anytime soon but the criticisms seem a bit premature given the article’s arguments
- Comment on We are in Brave's search results! 2 months ago:
I am self hosting my version so that is where my screenshot came from.
If I were looking for a public instance to use that has this functionality, I’d look to some of the European hosts as they are less likely to use Reddit as their de facto platform relative to Americans
- Comment on We are in Brave's search results! 2 months ago:
SearXNG has a the same functionality as well for free: Image
You can self-host it or use one of the publicly available instances.

- Comment on How do I automount sshfs? 2 months ago:
I run Debian 12 and ran into similar issues trying to mount NFS, even down to having to use an alternative console to log in and undo f stab edits
My solution was simple and so hopefully it helps you as well. In fstab, the backslashes don’t cancel out spaces. Since my directory path had a space in it, that would break fstab:
Path/to/your/Video\ Files
breaks fstabPath/to/your/VideoFiles

- Comment on Google’s Once Happy Offices Feel the Chill of Layoffs 3 months ago:
Definitely feels reminiscent of the"Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party" joke. They’ve been increasingly antagonistic towards their own customers regarding the efficiency of search and numerous other pipelines. It shouldn’t come as a huge surprise that they are also being dicks to their own employees
- Comment on Google Will Now Back Right-to-Repair 3 months ago:
That was my sentiment exactly. What’s the point of fixing a device if the replacement part is marked up excessively. Feels like bad faith actors
- Comment on App that tracks prices on websites? 4 months ago:
Same. Slickdeals and forget it. The website is a bit of a privacy nightmare w/ inserted tracking/referral links for every deal though. I’ve stopped logging in entirely and just use it for emailed alerts.

Great to hear. Preferably from a more neutral source next time.
- Comment on Firefish has been abandoned. 4 months ago:
Was on it for a few months but jumped ship after bugs went unfixed. Can’t fault the owner personally. It’s a stressful, thankless job. Hope he finds happiness in 2024

Hard to feel sorry for anyone actively putting money in Tesla/Musk’s pocket @ this point

“Decisions went from being made for the benefit of users, to the benefit of Google, to the benefit of whoever was making the decision,”
That’s a bar.
- Comment on Ransomware gang files SEC complaint over victim’s undisclosed breach 5 months ago:
What the hackers do is irrelevant. What matters is that they disclose it to the public so that those affected can take necessary actions. Failure to do so deserve a hefty punishment irrespective of whether or not they pay the hacker

- Comment on Las Vegas sphere reports $98 Million loss, CFO quits 6 months ago:
My thoughts exactly. He’s the one who set up video cameras to track and ban people going to his venues that he didn’t like
- Comment on What is xtrapath3.izatcloud.net, why does my phone connect to it? 6 months ago:
That’s a good read, especially the additional context at the bottom of the article.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Yeah, that is the only thing that makes me skim posts about Threads. I feel like they’re dragging their feet because they know that they don’t offer much different from most of the fediverse alternatives right now yet their users have to give up their privacy.
- Comment on Peertube's moment might come soon 6 months ago:
The lack of ads is beneficial to viewers, but I also think it’s worth noting that a disproportionate amount of people creating videos are doing so to hopefully monetize it.
With the fediverse, that seems much more abstract and so I think there might also be a disconnect for some content to make its way over.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Brave is run (and backed) by multiple people who have actions that have been morally indefensible, which casts doubt over their ability to indefinitely refrain from enshittification and question whether they aren’t already doing something nefarious.
