I knew once kliksphilip makes a video about it would be one of the best ones to communicate the intent of the initiative.

I tried to look for what the right term was, and this was what I found. Doesn't make sense to me either. What I meant was the rounded corners.

We're still stuck with curved screens, camera holes and no headphone jacks? I mean I'd still buy this one if I had to buy one, but I'm glad I got Fairphone 3 when it was still on the shelves. Even if it is a bit slow and memory starved.

I'm assuming this is more about art assets. Art is not code and you shouldn't expect them for free. It's not a catch.

With ActivityPub specifically, I'm aware. Yet privacy-conscious people tend to congregate there as well, which was my point.

You'd think Fedi would be a good place to be active on from a privacy-conscious user-base perspective, but I think this is the second time they leave Fedi? Either way, I guess being on Reddit allows them to moderate all the naysayers away.

I'm guessing you're hoping people just read the bolded part or something? I don't understand how this is in any way connected to the article. You know full well Finland's whole involvement in WW2 with Nazis was a vengeful war on Russia to return lost lands with 0 interest in anything the axis dictators wanted.

I think the original question could be about the protocol. Why not use Matrix as the protocol for the project? No one is doing the work to bring a Matrix-based Discord alternative because they're a) on Discord b) creatin IRC face-lifts like Element c) refusing to quit IRC d) making projects with bespoke protocols like this one. It's incredibly frustrating.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

These plugins just never work quite as well as a browser made specifically for it, namely Qutebrowser. Trouble with Qutebrowser is that's it's Python and parsing a lot of links slows it down. Still the best browser out there for this use case though, as far as I know.

People in denial about Twitter's turn to a far-right platform, even when it's underlined with an entire rebrand. Twitter's gone and it's unlikely to come back.

I assume as the volume of links grow, the amount of work mods would have to do in vetting editorialized headlines grow as well as some people would like to inject in their own bias. You'd see this obnoxious editorialization from time to time in .ml in the past on articles concerning USA, for example.

I'd just add the relevant info in angle brackets after the original headline, personally.
