+1. I like the idea of Lemmy, but I just can't stomach the community (or at least portions if it that seem to rear their head in every thread). My last two attempts to find a quiet…

As a quick disclaimer, I wrote the post (though aren't in any way affiliated with the project or the people that gave the project a grant). TLDR is that someone is trying to combin…

One minor 'gripe' for lack of a better term, is that I feel like a push to go backwards in technology is a bit misguided. I feel like a lot if people see ads and trackers, then loo…

> I don't even think it's about technical difficulty (most of the time). I think people just want someone else to take care of their shit. I get where you're coming from, and as mu…

Cool post, and definitely a concept devs should consider. I've only experienced the garden variety of offline (hiking out if cell service, not having a phone data plan, etc - not a…

Not the worst idea to avoid a website for breaking in FF (or take a chance to touch grass), but unfortunately when you can't pay your credit card bill or need something for your wo…

It doesn't ban a blockers outright but does severely hamper them. It severely limits how many filters that can exist within the plugin, and also prevents plugins from updating bloc…

I have had sites that are definitely broken in Firefox even after a stock install with every last toggle/extension/script blocker turned off. It's fairly rare, but there are a slow…

Was reading the switch to Firefox thread and wanted to share a set of complaints which have been building up for years that I finally put together. By all means switch to Firefox (…
