I use ntfy.sh for sending push notifications from scripts and such. It's open source and free (they have paid plans as well now, but I didn't encounter any limitations in the free plan).

Not an endorsement, just a happy user.

Shottr (https://shottr.cc/) is a great screenshot and annotations app and also includes this feature.

Not a promotion, just a very satisfied user of the app; it's quite beautifully designed.

I haven't noticed any issues on YouTube after subscribing. Before that it used to glitch once in a while possibly to penalize the ad blocking. But that may have been the behaviour in Chrome too for all I know.

Google Meet does have some key features missing on Firefox such as blurring / changing video background.

Experiencing the same issue. Google is falling apart. It's choosing English as the source language with queries like this, and destination is any language which you may have used recently with translate.

A note to the OP:

translate "Fischerboote" to english - doesn't work

translate "Fischerboote" from german - works

You fail to see that the criticism comes from rooting for Firefox and Mozilla through all these years and seeing them focus on everything other than their main product.

I'm willingly to bet HN has a much higher percentage of Firefox users than the internet average, and we are all tired and disappointed in Mozilla's current leadership because they've failed to innovate and keep the browser competitive.

For those looking for a way to filter open ports, check "IP sockets" and type "listen" in the search bar.

Discovered this on HN a few months ago, and it has become indispensable for me. Beautiful software with subtle, nifty innovations in UX.

I love that Jesse is taking a first principles approach with this and not constraining himself with the standard text editor patterns. He's also pretty active on the support forum and very receptive to feedback.
