So maybe an inelegantly hacked together startpage that shows all your feeds in one for the morning coffee?

That's a chilling read. Wu was only ever on the periphery of my attention — some tech advice here, the odd flash of TMI there — so I thought nothing of it when she fell off the radar.
Realising that she had gotten so relatively big, despite her circumstances, that government agencies were only waiting for fickle Western users like myself showing signs of indifference, before doing ...whatever they've done to her... serves as a constant reminder that not everone online is here on an equal footing with, say, the average North American or European.
I'd love if some of the terminally online keyboard warriors (that didn't rally to support her last year) might at least do an investigation into her current situation.
Edited for clarity.
Yes please!
...and this latest proposal certainly isn't either of those things.
This logo is really unpopular
Source? I've only ever seen a handful of strawman arguments that "I'm not offended by the vague resemblance to a pentagram/use of rainbow colours implying LGBTQ+ support, but somebody might be", but its fairly wide adoption suggests that most people — myself included — actually like it.
Well played 👏😄
Yeah, Newpipe is pretty great. It's also a Peertube/Bandcamp/SoundCloud client 🙂
Ugh, let's never mention simplemobiletools or Zipo again.
That's the one. Thanks!
Youtube — try Newpipe for background playback. There is a version with Sponsorblock, I believe
Gallery — I use the Fossify one. You'll find a lot of other FOSS utility alternatives searching for Fossify.
Media players — I waffle between different ones, but I always have VLC installed as a fallback. It feels clunky on Android, but it will play almost anything.
Exactly. A logo isn't meant to work at 11 point size in the middle of inline text. The typographical argument is nonsense, and I think this proposal is really a reaction to the idiotic "Satanic panic" over the rainbow pentacle.
Exactly. And if needs be, get the existing symbol included in Unicode. It might already be in FontAwesome.
Who the hell ever looked at the internet and figured, "The fediverse is really interesting, but it needs more annoying influencers who can be bought by corporations to peddle their wares"?
No thanks, please pack this up where it will not be found again.
