Currently borked on firefox as well. Youtube just implemented some new anti-adblock fuckery.

Yep. The quality of discourse, which had already been trending down for years, fell off a fucking cliff when they started actively chasing most people worth a damn off the site (w/ API, VPN policy, etc).

I have a plan to make the switch to Linux. For now I was just looking for any feedback on how to handle current Windows OS.

I would recommend moving to win 10 in the meantime. Much easier to avoid a lot of the nonsense than on 11.

Check out GrapheneOS.

It’s such a lazy bitch move to blanket block vpn users. For anyone intent on causing meaningful harm it’s trivial to bypass, so the only ones really impacted are the innocent mass of privacy minded people. Unnecessary hassle for people doing nothing wrong.

Open the actual history window.

the block function will block that account from engaging with, but not block seeing, a public post

Try clearing your ublock cache. It’s kind of buried in a support/help section nowadays.

Are you sure it still works? Mine quit working at some point this year :(

Also, there’s non-rolling limit to how much shows in a user profile. All the delete/modify scripts I’ve seen work through the user profile, cycling each sorting method to access as much as possible. For old accounts, or just ones with enough activity, there’s going to be shit not visible there. Have to search with other means if you want to get everything in that case.

Daily reminder that IP law is fucking stupid.

Because people are mainlining propaganda en masse and it’s rotting their brains. Maybe fediverse users are more abrasive idk, but the adversarial tone in online discourse nowadays is hardly unique to the platform.

There were only 3 noes, so no.

Rand Paul, Ron Wyden, and Mike Lee.

NoScript

and a script blocker

Way too many people still don’t understand that this is an essential part of the security equation. Many sites execute 10+ scripts, many of which are doing who the fuck knows what, and said sites typically only need like 1 to 3ish allowed to function.

Sure it’s inconvenient compared to not doing anything, but it’s mostly front loaded inconvenience. Once you get things dialed in for frequently used sites, and learn to tell at a glance what needs to be allowed, its really not much hassle at all tbh.

Self-proclaimed luddite? Well that’s certainly a choice lol. Have fun being perpetually confused and angry I guess.
