This is pretty much the current step already, not the next step, with broad ban on anything that isn't a lot like Chrome and anything that they simply don't want to allow. In the last thread the narrative was hijacked…
Insisting on getting paid for work is very different from insisting on owning a scarce resource in order to force others to pay you for it as much as you can squeeze from them. They are moral opposites, one is about not…
This is pretty backwards in spirit. If you own the code, there is no reason to let any corporation use you like that. Just change the license to something anti-corporate if you started with too permissive one, it'll…
The problem with your arguments is that they are full of assumptions of things that you say are good for society and humanity, while we don't actually have a scientific understanding of what the humanity is for to even…
It's not that simple. Xenophobic content, for example, is "unchecked" on any U.S. owned platform, so is some racism, but not racism against black people specifically. At the same time in most other countries in the…
These things could easily end up in ECHR, because a "fascist", just like an "idiot", could be considered an opinion, judgement, not a fact and so it cannot be false, unless it means something very specific in Austria.

They basically do account downweighting for people they don't like. Just make a new account with clean cookies and if you are using the same IP check your comment visibility from other IPs from time to time, as they…
With $1k MRR you can move to many cheap countries in the world and live there comfortably while working on your product, service, whatever it is you are offering. You can't do that with a regular job.

This reads like a dystopian fantasy, a "vision" to inject government control into every aspect of people's digital life.

At the beginning of the pandemic my sibling, who lives in the US, left Silicon Valley expecting to work remotely permanently, bought a big house in a much much cheaper location and is pretty happy about that. Not sure…
I thought it was Frankfurt in Germany, but can't confirm, there is only public data on per country connectivity, where Germany is at the top. But Brazil is definitely in top 5, for top 5 connectivity from last year the…
There is no way DIY diode bridge and filtering caps on a separate board could make a slightest difference here, in fact high frequency noise from the power supply could only be filtered right near the chip. But leveling…
No, it has all the commits from the latest version, the one released after the github takedown.
