I don’t fully agree. Mails from companies ( password resets, ads, … ) aren’t necessarily passing by Google/m$ servers. So you’ve got that privacy. If you use an aliasing service ( which they also seem to offer ) then they can’t tie it directly to the same person/email.

So there definitely is some privacy gain, though if you’re emailing [email protected] and [email protected], the whole conversation is available to that bigtech firm as the email will be sent in plaintext.

I’d say it’s a step in the right direction.

I don’t know atomic mail, so I can’t vouch for them. I’m also not able to do proper research on it right now. So maybe somebody else can pitch in on that part.

Imagine supertuxcart overtaking rocket league. Ah well. One can dream.

I wonder if I can get a refund because my game no longer works due to changes on their end.

Where is this even coming from? The guy above me is saying not to give devs better hardware and to teach them to code better.

I followed up with an example of how using indices in a database to boost the performance helped more than throwing more hardware at it.

This has nothing to do with having worked on old code. Stop trying to pull my comment out of context.

But yes you’re right. Adding indexes to a database does nothing to solve adding a new feature in the scenario you described. I also never claimed it did.

Note to self: move to finland

Edit: where I live they also introduced a 4 day workweek. You do your 40h in 4 days instead of 5 and now you have an extra day a week ( to recover from all that overtime ).

This is very true. You don’t need a bigger database server, you need an index on that table you query all the time that’s doing full table scans.

Hetzner has been solid for me ( and eu based if that is relevant for you ).

What? All my codeberg repos are private.

If you do not want anyone (apart from your fellow collaborators) to see your repositories, mark your repository as “Private”.

You’d be surprised how often DDOS can be an inside job.

I managed to work around it by unchecking “wait with pageload until all the blocklist are loaded” in ublock origin. Seems to work like normal now, though I’m unsure if that is actually a fix. I guess it might have some negative side effects like some ads coming through.

Oh hang on. My ad blocker was disabled. I turned it off to test something because my browser kept hanging when surfing the web on my phone.

It is related to ublock origin for some reason. Because the moment I turn it off I can browse like normal.

Case solved why I’m getting it :)

It takes a (short while to show ). I also have uBlock origin in my phone ( with fennec ) and it did show for me for some reason

I was on fennec, but I’ll have a look! :)

I got a video that started playing which only had an arrow to expand but no x to close. It kept following while scrolling.

Not sure why my ad blocker didn’t block it.

Edit: after staying on the page for about a minute it just auto showed up

That was one god awful website. Holy shit. Why would anybody willingly visit that site. Wtf

Worth every goddamn cent I paid for it.

I just checked,

google photos has permanent access to photos and videos. If you disable the app the camera roll no longer works. I get “activity not found”.

Maybe with a FOSS camera app it might still work? I haven’t tried.

Edit: and that is the only permission which it has ( photos and videos ). Everything else ( location, contacts, … ) is not allowed. But that one permission is auto permanently allowed.

If you disable Google photos storage access you don’t even have a camera roll :/

That’s how embedded the damn thing is

You are correct. I misread ( or my brain farted ) and looked up the wrong one.

Libreoffice their latest blogpost is from the 20th of August 2025. There have been a few releases in the past few months as well.

Openoffice their latest ( Apache Openoffice 4.1.15 ) was released almost 2 years ago ( December 2023 ).

Libreoffice seems like a more recent, better supported tool over Openoffice which hasn’t seen any updates since 2023 according to their own website.

I’m on my phone, so I didn’t search extensively. But I think that also plays a role in why there’s a much larger fanbase for libreoffice rather than Openoffice.

I’ve no recent experience with either so I can’t comment on how well either works.

Edit: I looked up the wrong one. My statement remains correct w.r.t. Openoffice, but they mentioned Onlyoffice which is a different product.
