wafrn, can do both bs & fv

thank you gary

maybe stupid questien but do you have an nsfw filter on by default or some other setting like that?

500 cigarettes

im currently waiting that https://www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/open-printer comes out. But i also am in no rush.

Also this comment is an invitation in case someone wants to tell about a good printer

maybe some of my addons block it because i havent noticed it but nice that you pointed that out

its basically bing with less ads and planting trees with part of the profit. You can test it out a bit and then test another or keep it. Search hopping is easy

i suggest not using google because its a privacy nightmare.
Alternatives are DuckDuckGo which is not entirely trustworthy because it uses Bing under the hood, same with ecosia.

Startpake got recently kicked out of the default search engines for waterfox for a reason maybe privacy related? That one has google under the hood.

Now the ones i can reccomend:
searxng (if you have the ressources, its selfhost)
Qwant (no AI stuff, funded by the french for the french, free to use by all but the default in french shools and recently the european parliament in an effort to ditch google)

I know that there are more options but i forgor…

The ones with their cake day around may and a bit later in 2023 are most likely here because of the API changes. After that its mostly alt accounts on a new instance, privacy reasons and bans

another comment suggested lemon/lemmons which would probably add to confusion but its silly

“i read about something in a lemmon” sounds silly. I like it

used blorp and liked it until i switched to mbin and needed something else

becuse no one told about alternatives:
Waterfox/Librewolf + uBlock + my addons + whatever other addons i like

They are like Firefox but stripped off mozillas bs to something thats cleaner. And because they are based on Firefox (Gecke engine) they also support manifest v2 and all the really good adblockers (i mean uBlock)

Not food & stuff but maybe try to unsub from communites that make you feel bad for a while. Like politics and news (and you can join back later when feeling better)

at the start it could be confusing/scared enough to make people leave.

But after the first steps its really good to know about how instances and their (de)federation works to find places that fit the user.

Knowing that the fediverse offers more than “reddit” is neat

That about that bsky is not part of the fediverse is probably mostly useful for mastodon users. I mean there is wafrn that can support booth but that a bit niche for new users

maybe its better to link videos like https://tube.sekretaerbaer.net/w/no5VtUKR2DWtxJ4iEeiXPT instead of trying to explain purely with words how it words

at the bottom of the desktop webside you can click on “instances” to see https://ani.social/instances
it currently only blocks Threads.net and allows 5 with “nsfw” like lemmynsfw.com.

Maybe look into your account settings if spoilerd/nsfw content is allowed

Bsky uses atProto, not activitypub. From what i got its an awful protocol because they reinvented some things and added cryptography to the point that they are in control of moderation.
The defederated part is only the place where userdata is stored, everything else like algorithms is in the hands of bsky.
If one wants to get control of an “instance” they need to make a second competiting bsky basically.

But Threats has activitypub. I mean like every Masto instance defederated because its very much influencers & stuff.
Some defederated instantly because its Meta, but after months even the ones who tried to accept them felt spammed with trash

oh nice :D

i hoped to add to your funny and be so overspecific that its also funny
