Afaik blocking trackers makes your browser stand out more. You can’t avoid fingerprinting, so best bet is to hide in the masses - so as close to most common resolution and default settings etc.

You are confusing what the game calls Democracy to what it actually is.

I think there’s a difference between distributed and decentralised. But apart from that 👍

My point was it’s the same thing, with local name pretty much.

The yellow color of Finland is weird. We call it Vappu, or Walburgs Night, but it’s indeed a paid holiday labour day.

I’ll forever be salty about Carmageddon having zombies with green blood.

Just remove the fullstack part. If there are any senior developers going through the CVs, that’s an immediate red flag.

Why? The “stack” has grown so large, that when a dev claims to be fullstack, you know he either doesn’t understand enough to know he cannot be a fullstack developer, or he does, and isn’t really good at anything, because there’s just too much to know these days.

The great majority of developers never contribute, that’s a false expectation. Majority of programmers work in the private sector and use local git hosts/solutions instead of GitHub.

Again, expecting those devs to not use git because of one hoster, is a ludicrous idea in itself.

It hasn’t. There are literally thousands and thousands of developers using Git daily without having nothing to do with GitHub.

You are entitled to your opinion, but that’s a fact. What MS does or doesn’t, with GitHub, has no effect on these devs. You can see how egregious it is to read a random person sayint we should stop using a certain tool, because Walmart also uses it? Jeesh.

I self-host GitBucket, and honestly your reasoning behind giving up arguably the best version control application, just because of one hosting site, is downright ludicrous.

Nah, they are average human beings

That’s insulting? Quite civil words, compared to the words the community he is describing, use in that thread.

There was a lot of shitty comments by people who just bashed, but not all.

I’m not seeing the “insulting users of the community” point you stated OP, could you clarify? I did see one snarky response to a dude calling him an asshole, and I also saw posts stating he shouldn’t be a mod, and generally very hostile responsens. Those in mind, I think his output was quite civil even though I disagree with his reasoning and opinion to large degree.

This feels like a witchhunt to me, and I for one don’t think a volunteer moderators job should be in question if he has a hot take on something. He’s just keeping the spam etc. clean, he’s allowed to have differing opinions on subjects, as long as there is no misuse of his mod powers.

In think that there’s enough space here for differing opinions and discussion. Echo chambers are not good. Fyi: I’m against his idea, but I welcomed the discussion.

Yeah the maintainer is still evaluating what to rebuild the app on. This might become good, but doesn’t look promising right now.

This is the exact point I’m trying to make, to the word.

Your earlier comment was the exact opposite in most people’s eyea.

By this definition of entitled, I’m not entitled to be alive once I walk outside, because I should have known the risk ahead of time.

Lol what the fuck?

We might be condescending due to braindead users like this:

You’re not entitled to a working computer once you execute a free program?

Despite grasping legal obligations at the age of 9, taking responsibility for your own actions seems to still be a struggle. Good luck.

Whenever you choose to run a program that has full access to parts of your PC that may cause issues, you are the person who chose to do so.

Just run apps in a sandbox if you don’t want to risk having to reinstall your OS in a worst case scenario.

The developer owes you nothing.
