They still won’t admit they were wrong. They don’t possess the willingness to self reflect whatsoever. Imagine living such an empty husk of an existence.
I had an idea what if we were to just like get a bunch of donations together pay for a bunch of shirts and full face masks with Firefox branding on it and Firefox colors Etc and also hand out pamphlets that would include the Mozilla ideas and then also like pay five bucks if you would do this at a Google event and interrupt...
We could also use a squirt bottle to squirt water at anyone whenever they try to use Google, or keep a can filled with pennies and shake it as a deterrent whenever they use Google.

The problem is seldom the cost of the equipment, but rather it’s the installation cost that gets you every time. By the time you pay for that, then there’s half the value of my stupid car.
I’m really kinda perturbed by Hyundai not manufacturing their cars with proper security in the first place.
For example, I have been using Google or Apple for 7 years, and seeing that I was fingerprinted, tracked through third-party cookies, etc. I want to switch to a more private option....
Looks like I canceled Prime right on time. Literally just did it after having it for years because it no longer provides any meaningful benefit, and it’s grossly overpriced for what it is.
When I used to get two-day shipping all the way here in bumfuck, South Dakota, then it was worth it, but it’s faster now just to order from some other site.
I haven’t received anything in 2 days since early 2020, and what finally made me cancel is they took forever to even ship one of my items that was in stock. I ordered two things, one was shipped by the seller and arrived in 3 or 4 days, the other was from the same seller but shipped by Amazon, and they didn’t even initiate shipping until a week later.
I was paying for a service that’s objectively worse than the norm.
In accessiblity settings in Firefox Android, there is a setting called “Zoom on all websites” that supposedly enables “pinch and zoom, even on websites that prevent this gesture.”...
I love reader mode. I wish it were available on all web sites. Even on the example I linked, it works within the individual articles, but not on the home page.
I don’t really understand how reader mode works. Maybe there’s a reason for this, but a “reader mode on all pages” setting would be nice. Even if it introduced some bugs, I think it would still be worth it.
Oh by the way, I wish I could edit HTML. It’s one thing I’d like to learn just for personal use. I just need to set aside time to learn it, which is hard with my work schedule.
Thank you for this important information! I have emailed ABC and referenced this event handler, trying to persuade them to make their site accessible. It will probably go nowhere, but I also asked for advice on webcompat, and that is where they sent me.
Nice, thanks. I’m definitely going to be playing around with this!
I learned from a search that you can view the source on Firefox Android by adding view-source: before a URL, but I don’t seem to be able to edit it on mobile.
Aw, that’s a bummer. It looks like the only way to do it is to connect it to a desktop PC for debugging.
There’s this, but I’d have to create a custom collection since it’s not a recommended add-on, which is a pain. I’ve heard they’re planning to allow us more freedom in which add-ons we use in the near future, so that will be nice.
I’m still going to start playing around in Firefox on WIndows and Linux though, so thanks for that.
I am a US citizen. I have emailed the web site about the problem, but I will do this as well. I’m not very educated about what constitutes non-compliance with ADA, but it’s worth asking them to look into. Many thanks!
News sites consistently provide one of the worst user experiences on the web, so I shouldn’t be surprised! I submitted my complaint as well. Hopefully it will go somewhere.
It’s interesting that it works, but not being able to move around the page would still make it inaccessible, unfortunately. I have filed an ADA report with the DOJ.
I recently discovered that you can get Microsoft Edge for Linux (🤢🤮) and am curious… does anyone here use Edge for Linux, or have you ever? What was your reasoning for using it?...
When will people realise that google has tailored algorithms and we are not all experiencing the same search results?
You’re right. This is the real problem with search engines like Google and one reason I use SearXNG instances and Mojeek instead. Where I live, the algorithm is more likely to net content that is biased toward right-wing conspiracy theories and problematic agencies because of that algorithm. Any search engine that does this is not a valid search engine, in my opinion.
I became hyper aware of it the first time I tried using Tik Tok, and I was served nothing but alt-right hate videos. Obviously, search engines aren’t usually quite so obvious, but for instance, people in my location are certainly more likely to net results connected to far-right ideas and agencies, because of the interests of people who live here.
I don’t like that idea at all. Search engines should only respond to deliberate input from the user imo. I know that’s a big ask for people to acclimate to appending “in [location name]” if they expect location specific results, but the convenience of just saying “hey Google, restaurants near me” is not worth the consequences.
Unfortunately, almost all search engines are complicit, including supposedly privacy friendly ones like Kagi, Qwant, and Startpage. I’m no longer recommending those to people. SearXNG and Mojeek are the only ones that don’t lean into the algorithmic and locational fuckery, but even that’s with a lot of tweaking the settings.
It’s no great mystery why things like fascism are on the rise. And people will say I’m in the minority for caring about this, and … yeah, that’s the problem.
Where we live, I’d run the A/C very few days in the summer. My husband gets so uncomfortable in the heat, though.
A/C sometimes makes me feel disproportionately cold. I’m not sure why. I can be outside working in the winter, no problem, but A/C is something else entirely.
Neoliberals never seem to get around to actually address what’s being said. They just hem and haw about why they can’t do anything about it, as they pull their SUVs into the third stall in their garage.
I’ve certainly noticed the change. There are some posts lately that are indistinguishable from those on alt-right breeding grounds like 4chan and reddit. That’s why I wasn’t too gung-ho about persuading people to join Lemmy – there were a lot of people on reddit I was hoping wouldn’t come.
I’ve started using raddle more, which comes with its own problems, but at least I don’t have to start by convincing people not to hate marginalized groups every time I open my inbox.
Raddle is a site similar to reddit, but it’s run by anarchists (anarcho-primitivists to be specific, but I’ve never felt unwelcome as an anarcho-communist)
“Dr.” Eric Berg is a quack and a grifter, so deplatform him as well, yeah I totally agree with that. I’d ban his ass from any space I moderate.
Before you know maybe your channels you like on YouTube get censored as well
If they start spreading lies that could get people killed, then I fully support that. I’m an anarchist, so I believe in equity for all, and such things need to be direct-actioned the fuck out of every community, along with other anti-human shitstains like the anti-trans losers and capitalists.
