For those concerned about the 'Signal leak'; Signal did not leak anything, Vance et al. screwed up their user access management.

All distractions and creating confusion... stop listening to what he says and start paying attention to what he and the people he appointed do and who benefit from it.

I've donated in November after I switched back to Firefox as my main browser. I read about the search deal dependency and wanted to contribute to what Mozilla called "reclaim the internet". Feel something akin to 'buyer's remorse' when I now read how little goes to development of Firefox/Gecko (the only multi-platform alternative engine for rendering the internet) and how much goes into CEO salaries.

So you deliberately shoot yourself in the foot and then start complaining it hurts when you walk?

Pardon my ignorance, but why yet another fork? Aren't there already hardened distributions suited for government use? To me the hard part seems to be the services needed for enterprise mgmt; software provisioning, policies, user acces mgmt, auditing/compliance scanning. Perhaps a good idea to look at parties that can also offer 'corporate' support at scale. https://ubuntu.com/gov perhaps?

Zen looks nice and some of the UX concepts (workspaces, glance, split sidebar from vertical tabs) work well. The 'fit & finish' and the way changes are pushed (unilaterally? Unvalidated with endusers?) feels very much like a 1 man hobby project though.

Yes, but a bad example of one very quickly heading towards autocracy. Some characteristics like screwing up your own economy and blaming 'the foreigners' rings a distant bell.

But did he also order 160k meatgrinders to give to their mothers on the next mother's day?

Only in FP64 and path tracing. It simply omits other things or has to do them using compute / software instead of having hardware for it. I don't see this being viable for gaming any time soon, strange comparison.

Aren't there several companies that donate to both running candidates, just in a 'betting on both horses' kind of way? Just making sure you're in good graces with whomever becomes president.

I bet you're right. Luckily I am tech savvy and aware of the ARM software compatibility attention point. While picking a new laptop that was 1 of 2 main reasons to go for the Intel Core U9 based Zenbook 14 instead of Asus's Snapdragon X Elite offering. (it also had a 60Hz and 1200p display instead of a 3k 120Hz one) Sadly their 14 inch models only come with Intel chips, or I would've chosen AMD. Still, battery life during browsing on the sofa is great and I don't have to worry about compatibility issues.

Please tell my neighbour with his 4m99cm (barely legal) van/truck... if I'm parked front side first (charge port to my shed) and he parks opposite side of the lot I can't even get out.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to directly address my findings. All in all I like what I see here so far! Getting acquainted with all the concepts will probably take some time. Most are familiar, but also worded/implemented slightly different. Then there's the diverse front-end (Web)Apps which also add different behaviours. I hope me sharing these findings doesn't come across as complaining; trying to help spot possible improvements / testing if it's me or the app.

For the Photon front-end, you should be able to turn on blurring in the user settings for NSFW marked content. It should use the same settings you have in your account for this

Well, visibility is enabled in my account (API only?) settings, but there's no blur or hide until clicked option there. Within the app-specific settings of m.lemmy.zip I have enabled the blur option... but no blur is applied. I can replicate the same on desktop (Zen browser).

This together with the low thumbnail quality compared to the other web-apps you offer, made me switch to t.lemmy.zip So I'm glad there's choices :-)

Can’t say I’ve experienced the lagging on scrolling either.

I think it's related to that hovering dock for navigation. It's jittery while scrolling, but the whole screen feels like <30fps during a scroll move.

Ideally we’d like to hide the communities from the /all feed but still allow people to search for and interact with them if they want.

I agree. That's indeed the desired or expected behaviour, but I can live with expanding my subscriptions and using to the 'subscribed' listing. I do like browsing 'all' from time to time to break out of the bubble so to speak. Also there, blocking individual communities sounds like a one-time investment and something I can live with.

Germany. Cars, appliances and tools (Bosch), furnature, food stuff (Lidl et al.) And even skis (Volkl). The list goes on.

I don't envy the man at all. Horrible limbo position he's in with no mandate of his own.
