Please stop posting about every fart that asshole makes …

I have been using Firefox as my only browser for many, many years now and I have never seen that message before.

Give then a Nobel Prize!

Quote and sauce or it did not happen …

I think you completely missed the point. The relevant question is not if there are better ways to reduce one’s negative impact (because obviously there are) and also not if Ecosia is perfect (because obviously it is not). The relevant question is how much environmental damage using Ecosia does compared to using other search engines and how good the search results are.

The short episode summaries on Netflix that show before you watch an episode often spoiler the main plot or even the plot twist. I will never understand why they do that.

The probability that there are no aliens is very small, considering just how large the universe is. For the same reason we will probably not get to meet them though.

You should get an endoscopy of your esophagus. A narrowed esophagus can have several reasons.

• Reflux

• Food intolerance

• Fungal infection

Had a salad made from a mix of vegetables and tropical fruit, on La Gomera once, best salad I ever had in my life.

Of course I do, is there another way? How else would one determine packing order and avoid crushing the more delicate stuff like tomatoes and eggs under the weight of the heavier items.

Who’s to say that the same won’t be true of TikTok

Who knows but we are talking about the negative effects TikTok has on society right now.

I respect your opinion and don’t think you are arguing in bad faith. However, I think you are missing the central point. Which -in my opinion- is that a social media platform that turns out to have extremely negative effects on society and especially kids, should get shut down. If it happens with intent or without is not particularly relevant as far as I see it. I apologize if my initial comments were phrased in any misleading way, I am not a native speaker so I sometimes miss the finer nuances of certain formulations.

What I mean is that Facebook for example is aimed at and consumed by older adults in the first place. Most young people in fact see it as a boomer platform.

By design. Especially the format (short video clips) and the optimization for being used on phones (not computers) makes it attractive for kids.

63% of Americans between the ages of 12 and 17 used TikTok on a weekly basis

I tried googling, can’t find anything that supports these claims

Seriously? it took me one google search to find an endless list of such articles. Also, did you not notice all the kids outside filming Tik Tok dances with their phones, it has been going on for many years now, how is it possible you did not notice it?

Yes but unlike Facebook and other platforms, Tik Tok is aimed at and consumed by minors specifically.

Tik Tok pushes so much toxic content towards children and teenagers it should be shut down in my opinion.
