ZenniOptical. My prescription is pretty strong (-6) but they manage to make the lenses pretty thin. I think a usual pair costs me $50 versus $500 at the optician’s store.

That valuation is going to drop even more once Google Cloud and AWS turn off the servers; he hasn’t been paying the hosting bills.

My view: Brave browser is a pretty useless Chrome reskin with crypto ads attached. Brave search is a pretty new and exciting alternative to Google.

I hate QR code menus, just let me see the damn food options without squinting at my phone

This might be the beginning of the end for Reddit. Or perhaps this is a rebellion of the 1% of tech geeks 🤓

I wouldn’t share a tear for Meta’s new plaything, they’re gonna have more users on Threads on the first day than the entire Fediverse combined. Apparently they’re not even linking up yet, it’s still on their to-do list?

I use both but for different purposes: Signal for group chats and Telegram for channels (news and piracy).

I trust Signal more.

Same here! I’ve moved from Reddit/Twitter to Lemmy and BlueSky, both of which have been an upgrade.

Been a happy Kagi user for 6+ months now. No more Pinterest and other blogspam in my searches

This looks like Google Play/TV or whatever they’re calling it nowadays.

This is what I use 😁 https://addons.mozilla.org/...

Got sick of the SEO spam from Google so I switched to Kagi. It lets me block all the blogspam and Pinterest junk when I search.

Yup, they have a $5 monthly plan as well which I utilize.

Same here, I actually have a much healthier relationship with social media when on Lemmy vs Reddit. That might change as Lemmy grows in user content but for now I’ll enjoy the quieter experience

I paid $600 to have my dog’s teeth deep-cleaned and definitely had a similar though to this lol

Vets and groomers are wonderful

My guess would be some really down to earth author like John Scalzi or Neil Gaiman.

Yup, Ive used Nicotine+ recently to snag a few songs

+1 Swappa. I bought my first iPhone this way with no issues

Good to see a fellow extension addict like myself! 😅

I think uBlock has a feature that’s similar ClearUrls that you can replace
