I'm pretty sure people who give in to subscriptions are usually forced to use a tool (or adobe) for one reason or another. New tool, that does one small thing, would not force many people to go into that absurd payment model.

If you consider that, you might also want to take a look at Astro.js

FWIW with pretty aggressive uBlock setup its "just" 7MB and 1.6s to load, so it might be just their love for analytics, tracking, measuring and lack of smart code splitting thats killing the performance.

`git change` can switch branches too if thats easier to grasp :)

Maybe they know something more than they advertise publicly

I recommend reading on "Witold Pilecki" - old story, but pretty fascinating.

Solid.js might be interesting to you.

I had similar problem. They demanded some documents for KYC, and my "address of operation" did not match "address of registration", or something similar. It took me over a month of writing with their support to even get any info WHAT is wrong, then couple of days on chats with them to straighten it out. Terrible system demanding a lot of my energy and time to get back access to MY MONEY. Because of course they blocked withdrawal/payments from my account.

This title is amazing. What a time to live in. I had no idea what the article is about until i opened and read it :) I was expecting middle-east negotiations commentary to be honest.

Arc died to me when they updated to manifest v3 and my uBlock Origin stopped working. Instantly uninstalled and switched to Zen Browser.

Wow. Reddit comments contains a company name. First step felt familiar so i just found an email from them in my inbox. Looks like i dodged a bullet 2 months ago. In the first step they wanted me to turn on a camera and do some live programming while being recorded. All without any human contact, all automated emails. It rubbed me the wrong way and ignored them. After reading what the next steps are I'm glad i trusted my intuition.

This has been clear for a long time. The question is who has the power and will to do something sufficient about it to stop it. The money is so huge they can buy enough protection. And social media is not even the only one doing it knowingly. But until fine < profit, fines will be paid. And until execs dont go to jail, they will still be happy to rake in the billions.

IMO Ex-president is a better credential than having a long political career, which often means, connected, corrupted and conformist.

Only if you assume people who voted for Biden in 2020 would vote for Harris in 2024.

Some ads have their salary put in local currency, which is a lot less than 100k USD. IE. couple of Polish, Swedish ads. one swedish ad starts at 837k which is comical.

I thought that too, until I visited my colleague who turned on their tv on those braincell killing videos and presented it as entertainment.
