Yep. Hence why we need to remake the internet.
That's nice of you, but it appears that the ad-supported business model doesn't work. It just results in enshittification and surveillance.
"We cannot have a society in which, if two people wish to communicate, the only way that it can happen is if it's financed by a third person who wishes to manipulate them."
Cases like these are why this extension exists: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/don-t-fuck-with-paste/
Nonprofit news organizations. The Markup has a very public-interest technology approach, and is most well-known for it's Blacklight tool.
California will be an incredible testbed to ground our work
The Markup CEO Nabiha Syed's announcement:
> I'm so thrilled to announce that CalMatters is acquiring The Markup in its entirety. The whole world is looking at California for both the innovation that comes out of Silicon Valley and the tech regulation that comes out of Sacramento. Bringing our data-driven approach to the deep CalMatters beats -- education, health, housing, AI -- is going to create change in California, the country, and the world.
Don't worry, it's not complicated at all. A little inconvenient maybe, but that's always the trade-off when it comes to privacy and security.
Here are the two most convenient ways that I can think of on each OS.
iOS: Bookmark the frontend URL. When you get sent a link, pop open the page and paste the TikTok URL.
Android: Get Firefox and set it as your default browser. Install the LibRedirect add-on (browser extension). Whenever you get sent a URL, just tap it and it'll automatically get redirected to the privacy-friendly frontend.
Only time will tell.
I know this one also went down recently for Instagram: proxigram.privacyfrontends.repl.co
But I'm not sure if it was an Instagram change that did it, or Replit took it down or what.
Most of my friends know better than to send me TikTok links. But for the few who still do, I use this open source frontend called ProxiTok.
To get TikTok links to redirect automatically on click, use the LibRedirect extension.
This is why enshittification might be a good thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Canva.
Their feature set and functionality is great, but their vendor lock-in is really off-putting. Even just within their platform, it's really difficult to move assets around within workspaces.
Let alone edit graphics that you made on Canva and edit them elsewhere, say Penpot, for example.
Selena - No Me Queda Más
Arctic Monkeys - 505
Eminem - Headlights
GnR - November Rain
While it is my joy to study the regions the only reason I would know more is that I ask questions to eliminate my assumptions.
Always a good approach. Commend you for that.
It is a pleasure to meet a Rarámuri though! From my books I’ve been told that your ancestral lands were part of a vast trade network. This is best evidenced in macaw burials and feather art found in Arizona of all places.
Is that so? It would make sense, given its geography.
As far as my bloodline, if you have seen one fat celt you’ve seen them all.
You funny for that 🤣🤣
Not to my knowledge.
Also: My understanding is that La Gran Chichimeca was further south from Chihuahua, around the Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, and Guanajuato region. Basically between Chihuahua and Mexico City.
You might know better than I would though, if that's something you study/studied.
I got Tarahumara blood in me, but you wouldn't know it from the current state of my cardio lol
My name's Hiram. I was born in Chihuahua, and raised in Chicago.
Both are home, and both start with "Chi."
Privacy is a fundamental human right. Plain and simple.
Online, offline, doesn't matter. No one should ever have to pay for it. Especially not to a surveillance company.
Recently got a Line 6 POD GO, and all the preset configurations are really convenient. I'm sure there's endless other configs that I don't know about, so I'm curious:
- Is there a resource online somewhere that maps all the presets?
Since they don't have licensing, "Come As You Were" is Come As You Are, "Boulevard" is Boulevard of Broken Dreams, etc. But there are some more obscure ones that I don't recognize.
- Is there a crowdsourced place where people "open source" their configurations to show how they got to a song's specific sound?
Android and iOS are the two choices you have when you buy a smartphone today. But what if there was a third one? Enter Apostrophy OS.
Looks like it's taken some principles from GrapheneOS and other alternative ROMs.
- What're your first impressions?
- What questions/concerns do you have?
- Any other thoughts?
I'll start: KXNG Crooked - Order 66 (Musar)
If you're into lyrics, syllables, cadences, and wordplay, this song is for you.
I remember Slide for Reddit allowed you to choose who to comment as before doing so.
Does this exist for Lemmy yet?
Recently learned about the SynoCommunity packages, but I saw this comment for a package that HyperBackup might not recognize a package and thus not back it up. However, it was unclear if it was for the particular package, or if this is a shortcoming of the SynoCommunity packages—since it's a third-party thing, maybe it applies to all SynoCommunity packages.
Does anyone know if installing a package via SynoCommunity can be backed up through HyperBackup (or another way)? Thanks.

No need to remove the URL tracking parameters manually. 🥳
Looking to get a pet trailer for my electric scooters, but I haven't seen any specifically made for scooters, only bikes.
Will a bike one work for my scooter(s), and if so, will I need any adapters or anything for the hitch? I'd be cautious about messing with the nuts and bolts of the scooter if it requires a very custom solution, but I'm open to it.
My two scooters:
- Kaabo Wolf Warrior 11
- Kaabo Mantis King GT
Why YSK: Trackers don't do good for anyone except the platform, and they're not necessary to view the content in the URL.

It's courteous to not subject the recipient (most likely your friends and family) to this tracking. You're already sending them to the platform, which is tracking them in other ways. But you can help reduce that tracking by removing everything after the ampersand in the URL. Here are some examples.
Twitter example
URL: https://x.com/CookieSlayers/status/1623712884902567937?s=20
The s=20 is a Twitter-specific parameter to show that the tweet was copied from the web app. s=46 is iOS, and I can't remember what Android's code is. This is a relatively clean link, but there are some links that'll concatenate unique identifiers, like: https://x.com/CookieSlayers/status/1623712884902567937?s=20&t=Fn47fnSDJUD74bd9.
In this case, you'll notice there's also a &t= parameter, which is a unique identifier to the person who shared it.
The only part of the URL you need is https://x.com/CookieSlayers/status/1623712884902567937.
Instagram example:
URL: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzP877du2EB/?igshid=MzRlODCFWFlZA==
The only part of the URL you need is https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzP877du2EB.
TikTok example
URL: https://www.tiktok.com/@inthepaintcrew/video/7301348328602717482?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7302915057791436331
You'll notice TikTok's is a lot more readable in terms of what the URL contains.
The is_from_webapp parameter is self-explanatory, as is the sender_device, and then there's the identifier that's unique to you. In this case, 7302915057791436331.
The only part of the URL you need is https://www.tiktok.com/@inthepaintcrew/video/7301348328602717482.

The best route1 would be to use privacy-respecting frontends, but if you don't, simply deleting everything after the ampersand goes a long way.
1The best route would actually be to not use/reward platforms that are literally destroying humanity, but we're not there yet, so... in the meantime, let's just try to decrease the tracking and stop subjecting our friends and family to it as much as possible.

I'm finding that I like bits and pieces from the various available frontends, but I haven't heavily gravitated towards one in particular.
If you have gravitated towards a specific UI, which one and why?
