Are instances changing names that often? Hexbear is the only one I have heard of and iirc that was only temporary.

Unsure about in Voyager specifically, but if you log in via the web interface it is in your settings.

Thanks. The original post where I saved your comment has now been deleted, so I only have that comment for reference.

This is a very well written an thorough article and I highly recommend reading it. If you don’t want to however, here is a summary of the key points:

• Brendan Eich’s anti-LGBTQ+ political involvement

• • Brendan Eich donated to anti-LGBT political organizations, politicians, and initiatives such as CA Prop 8 which banned same-sex marriages.

• 2016 — Brave Browser promises to replace webpage ads

• • Brave promised to replace ads with privacy friendly ads that would actually pay publishers and even users with a volatile cryptocurrency while keeping a cut for themselves. This never actually came to life and was criticized as “blatantly illegal”.

• 2018 — Brave runs a questionable donation campaign

• • Brave collected donations for popular content creators without actually involving or seeking consent from said creators. In short they accepted donations in crypto for creators, but would only pay out if it reached a minimum value of $100. When called out, Brave said refunds were impossible.

• 2020 — Brave injects referral links when visiting crypto wallets

• • Brave injected their own referral links for services such as Binance without informing users or asking permission.

• 2020 — Brave puts ads in user’s home screens

• • Brave turned their home screen image rotator into a place to serve ads, many of which were suspicious or crypto related.

• 2021 - Brave ships an insecure Tor feature

• • Brave added a Tor feature which exposed users DNS requests

• 2023 - Brave hides their crawlers to websites

• • Brave refuses to disclose their crawler bot to websites since many websites want to block Brave Search. Brave will only chose not to crawl a website if it also blocks Google’s crawler.

• 2024 - So-called “privacy browser” deprecated advanced fingerprinting protection

• • Brave removed a the Strict, Block Fingerprinting privacy feature from their browser.

• And More!

• • Brave paid for targeted ads for users searching for Firefox in the Play Store and ran a campaign to “Forget the Fox”. When called out on this the VP publicly denied it and claimed it was photo-shopped.
• • The VP of Brave, Luke Mulks, frequently posts about all things crypto, from NFTs to FTX, and uses AI-gen images to promote them. He also frequently re-tweets right-wing activists.
• • Brendan Eich’s feed also frequently contains right-wing content and Republican propaganda despite his claims to be “independent”.

Edit: corrected a mistake noted below.

The dispensary around the corner from work regularly has $50 ounces. No idea of the quality, I have not smoked since the mid 90s.

Thanks. I saw the bit about the WiFi card and trackpad, but missed the games he plays.

Before I got my Steam deck I did all of my gaming on a MacBook, ps5, or switch. If it was not available on one of those platforms I never looked at it.

Even now when buying a game I lean towards those playable on Mac.

Not very oniony.

I am guessing you only give them dry food.

A little over a year ago we switched all of our cats to a wet food diet. Before that I never realized how little water they get from drinking. It is something like 1/12 of a teaspoon per “lick” (0.409ml).

The entire thing is a quote of the article, the quoted quotes are tweets. Some have images in the article and that does not translate well into this post.

In high school I worked at the police station for one summer. There was a huge book that had a ton of laws in it. I remember me and the other kid who worked there would read through it.

Trickle down fixing?

Was the political violence one the anti child dude? I used to have his profile bookmarked.

We had to put down our 21 year old cat two years ago. Mentally she was fine, but her body was failing her. She was having a hard time controlling her body when walking, she would bump walls, fall off the back of the couch when trying to lay down.

It was a very difficult decision to make.

I have a real pair of Crocs, and my son has a knock off pair. The real Crocs are so much more comfortable than the knocks are, fully worth the price difference.

Saag paneer is a great dish. Spinach, spices, and cheese.

Cousin!

It was moved here to keep you from losing your place in your feed while looking at saved.

It’s not exactly relevant to the original question, but is to your response … My mom always told me “don’t do drugs, but if you do, do them with me so I can make sure you’re doing them right.”

Was that her policy on sex too?

Edit: a lot of people without a sense of humor in this thread.
