Yeha but you know Republicans will just look the other way when confronted with such arguments.

Hey, don’t scare me like that. Imagine a facility dedicated to cloning Trump and ensuring every future generation gets to enjoy his shenanigans.

(again)

We really need a fucking age limit or at least a dementia test…

I think it is still nice to assume that most users don’t have these plugins or filters, and to provide the archived version of the page. That way the effort to find the content is done a single time by a single person instead of everyone.

I just downloaded Firefox and installed uBlock on my phone to test this. Didn’t work. Any specific settings?

Edit: hmm OK, figured out the custom filter import for paywalls… do you feel comfortable adding Javascript managed by random people to your browser?

For anyone who doesn’t know this… Install uBlock > My filters > scroll down until you see import…

Import these two:

I don’t know… I don’t feel comfortable doing this. I usually only install trusted stuff in my machines. This feels like an easy way to get screwed.

That person could go rogue and then you have malicious Javascript running next to your credentials on every tab.

Edit 2: after checking in detail, those filters aren’t Javascript logic. So it seems fine. I thought it was some form of minimized Javascript

Because it is the new tool presidents all over the world are using to reach younger audiences whenever they want to win the elections.

Why don’t we ban sharing links with paywalls?

They didn’t convince anyone of anything, they just have a great free-tier service, so people prefer using it than self-hosting something. You can also self-hosted Github if you want the features they offer, besides Git.

I do love Linux. You got me there.

If a human is part of nature… Isn’t being killed by a human a natural death?

Why do you care what other instances think about it? I’m honestly asking and expecting an answer here. This isn’t a sassy question.

You built a wall and now you’re asking people outside of that wall what it feels for you to leave. Well, I’d care if I could see what’s inside the wall, but I can’t. I tried subscribing and it was impossible.

So why do you care what people outside of your wall think? Again, I expect an answer here.

Add a hard captcha in order to allow posting on specific communities that would be targets for bots, like c/memes. Like a very fucked up captcha.

That’s going to leave a mark
