Seems like such an obvious solution. Almost free to implement for websites, just return a “content-rating” header, instead of having to integrate with a costly ID verification system. Only downside is that it doesn’t make it easier to track

For me self-hosting makes the most sense when it’s on my own hardware, because the privacy benefits of owning my data make up for the lost convenience. If you want a cloud-based deployment, wouldn’t it make more sense to let BitWarden host

It’s probably true that most seasonal allergies are cause by wind-pollinated plants, but bees sometimes help to pollinate those kinds of plants if they happen to be the closest food source. I have ash trees (Fraxinus) in my neighborhood, an

That’s because it contains small amounts of the pollen you might be allergic to. So it’s really important that it’s raw, because you don’t want to cook the proteins that the pollen is made of.

If you enable automatic updates, you still have to trust that the GrapheneOS devs won’t push a malicious update to your phone, or sell that ability to someone else.

That’s a slippery slope, because by that logic we should destroy all life, because life always causes suffering. Maybe a better alternative is to provide better conditions for farm animals. I’ve raised chickens in my backyard, and they seem
