However it feels like the time of social media is already coming to an end. With the companies filling our timelines with ever more crap in a futile attempt to 'engage' us, they are only driving us ever more away.

It's still running tons of spyware yes but it's an alternative on phones where MicroG is not an option. Eg Samsung phones with Knox enabled.

Disabling it is ok but the problem with that is that you lose all security. There should be a way to add our own signing keys to persist changes to the SSV (Signed System Volume) and SIP protected folders. It shouldn't be trust only Apple or nothing.

I only have "Scroll to hide toolbar" and "Swipe toolbar sideways to switch tabs"

This is in Firefox 108.1.0 which is the latest.

I know you can mess with Nightly to allow other addons but I don't really like using nightly to be honest. This feature should really be in the mainline too.

Right now most platforms don't do ID validation because users hate sharing their details. By making it more privacy-safe more platforms will do it because the barrier is lower. I really hate that, I think the internet should remain anonymous. So I can pick whatever nick and even have multiple.

Yes most nuclear incidents involved risks being ignored. But I don't see how this is an argument for nuclear. This will keep happening as long as we have this stuff built and operated by the lowest bidder bound to make as much profit as they can.

We're all going to die eventually of something and of those 8M many would have died soon after of other causes. Look at how many people still smoke packets full of hazardous fume sticks on a daily basis. That's how much we care about that risk.

Those numbers could have changed a lot this year if Russian shelling at Zaporizhzhia had worked out a bit differently.

And this was a military adversary that wasn't explicitly trying to cause nuclear damage here. The next one might go all out or try something as a false flag.

Those 70 years have been in relative peaceful times. And they don't include the 200 years of cleanup we've externalised to the future. We just learned a very painful lesson what externalisation to the future can lead to with global warming.

I wish I had one of these. I guess finding one is even harder than restoring it.

Only things that still bother me on FF is not having access to all extensions and not having pull to refresh.

Also, Android blocks user-installed CAs by default now, apps have to opt in to accept user-added ones. That makes it pretty useless. Not sure how iOS deals with this.
