I post on Hexbear communities and I’m from lemmy.ml

Snake case. I find it the easiest to read.

I never call the cops, ever.

Well it’s now a reality: https://monogr.ph/66add1680f119badfa65686f/

I’m sorry to hear that, but also, what does that mean for people in your country who don’t have smartphones? I know that sometimes people aren’t allowed to own smartphones (refugees, or sometimes imposed on a defendant as part of criminal proceedings)—if you don’t own a smartphone can you just not participate in society there?

Tbh when I’ve been required to install some kind of dodgy proprietary app that doesn’t work well with GrapheneOS I just tell them I don’t have a smartphone and they seem to be fine with that and offer me a “low-tech” alternative for whatever it is (usually some kind of 2FA app). It’s concerning when important things are inaccessible to people without a smartphone, because of course that’s the baseline for things being accessible for everyone regardless of their phone situation, e.g. people with degoogled phones etc.

If your priority is to not give a cent to Google then don’t use GrapheneOS. There are other degoogled OSes for people whose priority is that. If your priority is security then you’d be willing to sacrifice on avoiding anything Google by getting GrapheneOS.

In any case, technically if you wanted to avoid anything primarily made by Google you’d have a Linux phone. The degoogled Android OSes are still based on Google’s open-source code.

Thunderbird shows it for a at every startup

Honestly didn’t realise till you pointed that out. I’m so used to seeing it that it doesn’t register to me what it’s saying anymore. Probably for the best that KDE only does it once a year; if it were daily I’m sure it wouldn’t even register to people that it’s asking for donations.

Use rss feeds maybe? Adding /rss to a tumblr blog’s url (in the x.tumblr.com format) shows an rss feed

Well it’s tracing so presumably the outline would be very similar to the real outline and you’d be recognisable.

Thanks!

Where are you getting this message from? Do they have a Telegram channel where you can get news?

https://libgen.is/ is still working for me

If I open a browser window in the corner of the screen, I’m basically guaranteed to get more cloudflare captchas, but if I open it full screen I only get one, maybe two.

That’s interesting. If you run a browser full screen they can get your screen resolution as part of fingerprinting you; that’s why LibreWolf and Tor Browser have their letterboxing features. So they just don’t like browser users who take actions to improve their privacy, huh

Do you just need to write markdown? Plenty of text editors have a vim mode. Not sure if there’s any lightweight ones that do the markdown preview alongside a vim mode; I know IntelliJ-based IDEs have a vim mode and can preview markdown, but that’s not exactly a lightweight solution, and only the community edition is open source.

But also what exactly is it you’re looking for that Vim can’t do? I use Vim for writing pretty much everything. I use Vim for markdown and it works fine. Markdown is already pretty readable as a text file so I don’t feel the need for a previewer or anything like a rich text editor (but also there are plenty of markdown editors out there if you just want to edit markdown in a RTE).

No worries. You can also use LibRedirect to automatically redirect any reddit links to a redlib instance of your choice

Use redlib, e.g. the instance I use: https://redlib.ducks.party/

Oh shit nice. Finally, the free as in speech beer

People need houses to live. Taking stuff off your own server doesn’t throw someone out onto the streets and leave them to the elements. Come on lol

I always fail Cloudflare captchas because I’m clicking it with Vimium-C lol. I hate captchas for making me reach for my mouse. It also seems like a genuine accessibility issue if people who cannot use a mouse can’t pass a captcha.

I’ve found that Google’s reCAPTCHA has also started rejecting me no matter what I do. I think it might be because my IP address is a VPN, but that’s pretty stupid; if I can pass the test by clicking the squares why not let me in?

Every primary school girl likes pink and princesses and is too dumb to enjoy fighting games of course
