They published a 2024 roadmap at the end of last year. I saw it when I was looking into donating to Framasoft.

Peertube is planning on releasing an official app this year. Just thought I’d throw that out there.

Space was always a place of wonder, curiosity, beauty, and new beginnings. Though I suppose it was fruitless to hope humanity would leave their crap on Earth.

Space late stage capitalism and war, anyone? Hopefully not…

I am not spoofing my user agent and I’m going to continue using FOSS front-ends to access YouTube until an alternative takes off. Fuck you Google.

Lemmy v0.19 will have this feature

That’s still good practice but first party cookies aren’t exactly trustworthy either. IMO, best to whitelist what you trust and use, permablock what you don’t, and auto-wipe the rest.

You can educate them if they ask but otherwise you can’t force them because most people are very resistant to this type of thing.

Your best option is to stop using FB messenger yourself and tell them they can reach you on Signal. If they’re really your friends, I’d like to imagine they’d follow you over. If your friend group switches, more people are sure to follow which will help speed along mass adoption and normalization via word of mouth to other friends and family.

SMS is IE, Whatsapp is Chrome, and Signal is Firefox. Use Signal/Firefox.

A lot of people don’t bother with changing defaults and corpos like Google, Microsoft, and the likes are well aware of this which is why Google pays Mozilla hundreds of millions of dollars per year to be the default search engine.

I understand the compromise at the surface level but the implications just result in Google gaining more power and data, making it harder for “alternatives” to replace it over time which puts us all in an a bad situation when they decide to pull shit like WEI.

Good bot.
