This is awful, especially knowing it will be used to identify people that want to stay anonymous. But I'm glad this got published for awareness. By not loading CSS by default, you can probably block this identification behavior. Haven&

Thanks for this excellent comment. It reminds me of a letter I wrote my dad last year for his birthday. It was called: "The summit isn't necessary", where I thanked him for his words on enjoying life for yourself by simply en

I've seen more and more websites that serve ads from their own domain. With filenames that don't reveal that these media files are advertisements. With pi-hole it's impossible to automatically stop these unique requests from

So, this person is surprised about the amount of data that Amazon collects on her and posts a video about this on _TikTok_? Oh, the irony :) I do find it praiseworthy that privacy advocates are present on all channels though.

I'm pretty sure Youtube knows that people who did one of the things you mentioned get fed up with their crappy recommendations and enable the recommendations, just to be 'fed' with new content. Which in turn is great for thei

I didn't even realize there was a character limit. A quick search shows me that it is 2000 characters. Which is not _that_ bad, since most forum posts will likely be something shorter. But the entire UX surrounding it is all about quic

It's a real shame. The most thoughtful discussions usually take place on forums. Chat has this feel to it where it's better to reply fast and short instead of taking a bit longer but providing an elaborate reply. I understand the

I love the visual elements that drag the music out of the audiospectrum. As a visual person this speaks to me so much more than the traditional 2D way of representing music. It's really cool to see songs visually laid out in a 3D space

Something you could consider is signing their open letter, they need 1000 supporters and have a bit more than 1 month remaining. That could bring this under the attention of the European Lawmakers. You can find it here: https://a

Growth is the thing cities and business focus on. They may call it sustainable growth but it's still growth at it's core. If you could somehow prove that wildelife areas generate some sort of growth, short and long term, economica

Would be interesting to plot that on an informativeness scale as well. I know that's arbitrary, at least we know whether the growth rate actually provides us with exponential (or whatever rate) information.

It was a bit of a relevation for me recently to find that Firefox on mobile has an embedded QR code reader. Since most QR's are URL's anyway that helped me out here.

Was thinking exactly the same. Screen resolution makes that some numbers fall below the fold.

Before the internet was filled with tracking things there were plenty of online services. And you paid for that. Initial mail services cost money, but we seem to have forgotten that. And now we put that pricetag on privacy? No. Running a se

With their good (enough) recommendation engine they could try to become a Steam like platform. I wonder how well that will turn out. Mixing entertainment is one thing, but juggling both platforms is a big thing. Cobbler, stick to your last.

Sorry, let me rephrase. What is the extension you are using?

So what's your toolbar button? A custom script/extension? Or a downloaded extension?

I think it's more fair to compare Medium to Ghost ( https://ghost.org/ ). It has all the tools for writing, publishing, maintaining subscriber databases and even payments. Self hosted or hosted by ghost. You have all the

Then this museum could be to your liking: https://www.homecomputermuseum.nl/ Based in the Netherlands, they keep all devices in working condition and you can actually use them. Some on request.

Where do all these templates come from, did you buy them? Scrape them? Design them yourself?

Great, thanks for sharing these. When I read the OP I initially started trying to apply the filters in uBlock by myself. But I couldn't figure out how to remove recommendations but keep search results (kinda essential) visible.

Interesting that this pops up, I recently ditched Spotify and dug up an old folder based MP3 collection. Is there a noticable trend that people start using their own collections again? Instead of relying on subscription services like Spotif

I've had a waiter looking at me puzzled why my phone wasn't able to scan a QR code. I told him already that my camera wasn't able to. But I had to open the camera in front of him. - "Have you tried rotating the camera?&q

It's not a matter of who asked for it. It's a matter of sustaining income for many, many ad tech companies. They need to be making numbers that confirm how precise their ads hit the conversion sweet spot for specific audiences. If

This is what software should be like. Highly personalized and usable by the designated audience. Not bloated, not filled with "useful" features. Fulfill a core need. Well built!

My design team recently made the switch from Sketch to Figma for better collaboration purposes. It's a bummer that there is no real alternative for outages on their end. I wonder if there are any plans within Figma to facilitate some s

I would rate it more likely that this idea was the result of a brainstorm about ideas on how to monetize on (the feeling of) privacy. A bit similar to the whole connected fridge idea. A: "We need features to distinguish ourselves from

I guess it would be for maintenance. Taking of a casing everytime something breaks or required adjustment can become quite a nuisance.

Nice idea and cool how you made it into a product. Could you provide us with a tad more technical specs? Since the website is down and it isn't archived yet would be good to see some of that tech specs here.
