IMO this is not enshittification, it’s not the websites fault they struggle with bots. It may not be the best strategy, but enshittification is when a digital service has its customers caugt with vendor lock-in and then exploits them for more profit

I thought we all agreed that “immutable” is a confusing term and that we should call it “atomic”

Yeah good point, not a trivial undertaking. I’m not an expert in that area but maybe elasticsearch or similar technology is able to find matches. Although I have no idea how that works under the hood

The genomes have likely been indexed to make finding results faster. Google doesn’t search the entire internet when you make a query :P

Good for Nix! Horrible article though lmao

Oh woops! Thanks

what flag is that I am badly educated apparently

if you want a paid version similar to pihole with a bit more control and insights I recommend a smart DNS service like Control D.

do they not? That is disappointing

good point

True! fairphones are at least okay-ish there too. They actively cooperate with devs that make open source android OSs. But yeah Google still has way too much power in the entire android ecosystem. Many banking apps don’t work without Google Wallet, which doesn’t run on degoogled OSs.

agree 100%. One way to buy less phones is to buy a repairable phone.

for me the point about being locked into an ecosystem is reason enough.

Some more on that:

• Apple has actively resisted efforts by the EU to standardize
• iPhone doesn’t allow you to install apps they haven’t approved.
• Apple devices often refuse to interface with non-apple devices despite being physically capable.
• You cannot easily install other OSes on Apple hardware.
• Apple software is almost entirely closed source, and they likely have backdoors everywhere.

I just want to own my phone man

use whatever phone you like

wrong. Use a fairphone

got some examples of the woofs? I’m not doubting the claim just interested :D

It blows my mind that Linus is just so darn based all the time. That guy has a good take on like every issue.

eh the emacs folks are just chilling in a corner somewhere. Maybe in the old folks home together with the ed users

Well then don’t comment at all. Like I said I am happy to hear your arguments but now you just made me frustrated…

I’m pretty sure the reason you’re getting spammed with insults is that you have a very abrasive commenting style. At least that’s my opinion based on the last two I’ve read :D

If the pressure is right u should be able to get everything, but yeah even then you need to dry it.

what? I like them but I’m happy to hear your arguments if you would articulate them.

“You’re wrong I’m right but I won’t tell you why” is the opposite of a useful comment
