Calling HN a privacy nightmare is pretty wild. But sure, let’s dilute the term even further until it loses all meaning. Websites that are truly privacy nightmares will be delighted.

I do, too, and I hope they increase their own search index to reduce the dependency on Google/Microsoft. I love the great search experience but I hate that I’m (indirectly) giving those companies my money.

Yeah, I wish for a “Blender” moment for GIMP. Big improvements to the UI/UX to bring more (non-tech) users and code modernization to bring in devs.

While Krita focusses on drawing, I found it basically just as good at photo editing as GIMP. So today I don’t use GIMP at all and do everything in Krita.

Noticed that as well, it’s absolutely ridiculous. But judging by the amount of serious replies most people don’t seem to care.

We have passed the torch of a fascist dystopia to another country.

Only on Lemmy you get downvoted for saying you pay for a service you like…

Asked very plainly, it refuses to answer questions related to it, but it requires very little convincing to talk about it. Much softer censorship than most of the other available models.

It’s crazy that you’re getting downvoted. It seems, people WANT to be fed fake news as long as it aligns with their beliefs.

Sure, the problem is, that male nipples are allowed in the West, not the other way round…

None of the items in your screenshot are games?

Screw all smartphone users as well!

Disclaimer: I haven’t read the article

A wise choice in this case. It’s 23 paragraphs that mostly describe standard Thunderbird features (as the author usually does not use email clients) and only one list with three (!) bullet points of new features in Betterbird.

Edit: to save you a click, here’s the list from the article (the actual feature list on the project page is longer):

Some notable features include:

• System Tray Icon (Linux)
• Accent Colors (for folders)
• Multi-line Inbox View (disabled by default)

I hate this “feature” but there is always a way to deactivate it in both the web version and the app: you can change the audio track on the settings of the video (e.g. behind the cog icon on mobile)

Thanks for posting this. Been using Linux exclusively for almost 10 years now but I still miss scrolling by clicking the MMB. I have some problems with my fingers so using the scroll wheel is rather unpleasant, yet necessarily, especially when scrolling down slowly and steadily for a long time (e g. while reading/scanning stuff)

Yeah I think most complex and long-term OSS projects have “employed” contributors paid by donations or sponsorships (e.g. Linux, Blender, LibreOffice, …)

Yeah that is absurd. I’ve found exactly one comment that is at least not negative.

If a website with old-school passwords gets hacked, the hacker only gets salted hashes of passwords - this does not seem to be much worse?

(Websites that store plaintext passwords surely won’t implement passkeys either…)

You can listen to the recording of each entry by clicking on it. Sometimes it does seem to be only noise but maybe the machine has better hearing than I do…
