Does this mean users won’t be able to see videos hosted on other platforms from your instance?
- Comment on YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy 1 hour ago:
I don’t think that’s true.
It’s my understanding that by federating, you are duplicating the data from the servers you federate with on your own.

AMD still makes shitty GPUs for an egregious price.
They essentially use Nvidia’s scumbaggery as an excuse to be “slightly less scumbags.”
Their GPU division never had a “Ryzen” moment, and it doesn’t look like they ever will.
They just don’t care.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 details: Screen size, controllers, storage, microphone chat and games 1 hour ago:
Yeah, once I moved permanently to piracy I’ve noticed I actually have way more games than I know what to do with.
I still haven’t finished BOTW, and there’s also TOTK to play after that. I also haven’t played Skyward Sword ever and I replayed WW and Twilight Princess in the meantime.
Really, I can’t fathom getting excited for digital media at this point. There’s so much to enjoy, I genuinely believe that any sort of “hype” is just consumerism taking hold of unsuspecting individuals.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 details: Screen size, controllers, storage, microphone chat and games 2 hours ago:
Everyone should just move to piracy anyways.
Products cost what we’re willing to pay, not what they cost to produce.
The fact so many people are willing to pay for things they can get for free (while complaining they don’t have enough money) is just another reason why things are the way they are. We’ve been conditioned to be proud of our consumerism at any cost.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 details: Screen size, controllers, storage, microphone chat and games 2 hours ago:
I haven’t bought a game in years. I don’t own a switch, but I get to play the games for it I want.
At some point, I realized “supporting the devs” was just rhetoric for useful idiots. Most of the money goes to their landlords and delivery apps, anyways.
It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there, people. Don’t let consumers on the internet convince you to spend money on things you could be getting for free.
Use your brains before your wallets.

This should be the norm.
- Comment on YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy 2 hours ago:
True.
Peertube has been hamstrung by a very poorly-made design decision early on.
It’s my understanding that peertube copies all of the content from hosts it federates with. That’s a huge waste of storage and the main reason why most peertube instances hardly federate with anything.
Instead, peertube developers should implement the option for servers to duplicate data, or simply load the data through a link to a server that hosts it.
It’s still young and they’ve done a pretty good job with everything except this fundamental flaw. Hopefully if enough people hear about this idea and promote it, we can see it implemented and then Peertube can really take off.

Good.
Let people say what they want and you can ignore them if you don’t like what’s being said.

Err… does this mean we can get a Mozilla or Thunderbird email address?

Where is it being proposed?
- Comment on AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking 22 hours ago:
Yes. I prefer this to the whole “ethical ad” debacle people have had prioritized for them.

Thanks for doing your part to spread the truth in this sea of lives and FUD.
It’s clear that most people these days are proud consumers with more money than sense. All they care about is looking good in front of their consumerist friends, and they base all of their actions and decisions around what will support that ideology.
As a kid, I thought useful idiots were rare. Now I see it’s the exact opposite.

I always like this on the premise of charging advertisers money while giving them no audience in return.

It’s not even available on chrome because google removed it years ago.
They weren’t breaking any rules, but google saw it as a threat and kept it removed since there wasn’t sufficient backlash.
Really wish people would STFU about the “privacy” aspect about this. It gives junk data to trackers because it floods them with all the ads you’re coming across. The main purpose, though, is to charge advertisers money without giving them a service in return.
It’s sad most of you consumers can’t see the real significance of this software, but it really puts into perspective why most people are useful idiots these days.
Consumerism has won.

Just make a packet and overwite the IP field.
I can tell I’m getting old by the amount of proudly-dumb shit I keep reading.
It’s only going to get worse. Sigh.
- Comment on AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking 23 hours ago:
Why are you people so concerned about “the data?” Talk about missing the forest for the trees.
This is an effective tool to charge advertisers money without having their ads shoved in our faces. It directly undermines the integrity of the digital advertising ecosystem, and you people are obsessed with “privacy” because your priorities have been decided for you by your oppressors.

No, he means that’s literally not how IP addresses work. It’s not about “nothing being random.”
You don’t just “pick an IP address” from a list lmao and send it as though it’s not your actual IP. You would need to literally connect to a proxy and send the request through that proxy in order for ads to see an IP different than you own.
My god, are you people trolls or just the next generation taking hold? The dumbing down of Western society is in full force.

I’ve been recommending this for awhile, it’s nice to see someone else take up the mantle.
Yes, it clicks ads in addition to blocking them. Google removed it from its addon repository even though it wasn’t breaking any rules. They just removed it and kept it removed because there wasn’t sufficient backlash, the scumbags.
It’s the main reason why I use Firefox these days. it’s clear that the cabal will not allow anything that legitimately threatens their power structure, and make advertising less-effective for the same price is a gut punch they need.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Censored for saying:
People get banned for saying men aren’t women. You don’t have a point when mods abuse their power. Looks like my comment was censored for even pointing that out.
Literally just proving me right and the original commenter wrong every time mods abuse their power here.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Anyone with a brain can see why your responses are asinine.
Gonna block ya now.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Oh goodie, more censorship.
Funny how this started by me pointing out mods abusing their power should not be taken seriously.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Sigh. It really never ends with you people.
The replies go on and on, and on and on. It’s non-stop. It’s incessant.
You brow-beat people until they leave because they have better things to do.
I had a retort, but I didn’t bother sending it. There’s just no point at this point. All I can do is block and move on.
Thanks for reinforcing my views.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
I rest my case.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Analogies are fallacies. Instead of discussing the topic at hand, we now have to discuss how accurate or inaccurate your analogy is. It’s not a 1:1 representation of the subject.
If you’re seriously trying to say men can be women because of immigration, that really just shows how far gone you are and why you shouldn’t be taken seriously by rational people.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 days ago:
Whew lad. Interacting with people like you really puts into perspective how inept the average internet user is.

Economic violence = sanctions on Russia
“physical violence Russia has exerted on the Ukrainian populace” = war in Ukraine
Both are happening right now at the same time.
