Blocking instances works with the OG Lemmy, but they didn’t build the function into the app, you’d have to go through the website (that one time only).
Or can you block all users of a specific instance with Voyager?

I’ve tested kagi and agree that the search results are great. What I don’t like is that it’s making anonymous searching impossible, since I have to be logged in to use it (or use my unique token as part of the url for mobile searches).
Ultimately this means to me that in a private window mode (or even logged out with a fingerprinting resistant browser) I do not have the same degree of anonymity I enjoy even when using Google, let alone DDG or others.
I like the idea of not being dependent on google, but exposing my entire search history to one single entity is not my answer of choice.
The same crap is going around Instagram and other social media pages. Often when you check out the profiles, they have some link obscured via url shortener that resolves to some random porn site or flat out scam page.
They try to comment first to get upvotes I guess.
Uh… And how would they do that?
It’s not like starlink publishes a list of all their customers, and you can’t simply pick up the signal.
And shooting down satellites in a geospatial orbit? Good luck.
And that’s the reason why I don’t use it, I need specific websites that access my local time, and apparently whitelisting is not a thing.
Wow, that’s quite something. Hopefully a temporary thing due to spam issues or so…
Yeah Douyin is pushing educational content and is very fast to censor harmful stuff. Still full of garbage and racism though, just the sanctioned kind against people the government doesn’t like.
I’m using a VPN almost permanently, never had any issues there.
Are you sure it’s lemmy.world and not cloudflare or something?
I haven’t noticed that behavior in years. Usually I wake up in the morning, see the “new update” notification, check if there’s anything I don’t want updated, or else click “update all” and then go to the bathroom. By the time I’m back, everything is done and delivered.
One pin too many, the slot is not wide enough.
Dogs can eat peanuts just fine?
They shouldn’t be part of a regular diet since they are too high in fat, but the same applies to peanut butter. There’s no difference whatsoever.
Hard pass for me. I get where they are coming from - no buttons, next stage will be wireless charging only, means it’s a fully enclosed system with zero ingress for water or dirt, so that’s kind of neat.
But personally I need at least a power button and volume up/down. And I love the slider for different sound profiles on OnePlus phones.
Let’s see how much longer, their economy is slowing down significantly, with a lot of international companies withdrawing their manufacturing sites partially or altogether. Even more drastic for IT and other R&D entities that can basically shut down and relocate without moving tons of physical assets around.
Just yesterday IBM shut down their Chinese operations entirely, with more than 30,000 employees across the country effectively out of jobs over night. They announced to move it all to India.
Many manufacturers that target the US are moving to Mexico thanks to the reduced tariffs and customs and shorter supply routes, EU manufacturers are going to Romania and Bulgaria for the same reasons now that they’ve joined the EU (a while ago, but relocating factories takes years).
Manufacturers of cheaper goods and components are increasingly moving to the Philippines, Vietnam and Thailand, where labour costs are a fraction of what China is now - they grew too fast too quick.
I’ve just left China for Malaysia myself (also in the manufacturing business), and many of my associates have done as well or are planning to do so in the next 6-24 months.
China played “too big to fail” and is now learning a harsh lesson, on top of their failed real estate industry that wiped out a third of the GDP, with banks yet to follow. The big awakening will come soon, and I bet people won’t overlook their international transgressions any longer.
🍟+ 🧀 + 🥃 maybe? I guess it’s supposed to be a whiskey tumbler, but it looks close enough in color…
Damn, I wanted to make exactly the same joke.
Tinywall is great and free.
I can’t see the option on my free account either, despite installing the most recent update earlier today.
Here’s my takeaway on the article:
Blablablablablablabla (…) bla.
-> Deactivate it.
As long as you are still sourcing the content from youtube, you’re not really de-googled.
I’m using a browser setup hardened against fingerprinting, block all known trackers, and cookies are barred from cross-site activity.
Might not be impossible to track me regardless, but at least I’m not giving them everything with a chef’s kiss on top.
