Google Play and F-Droid are both available

Engy is a relaxing class only if you play on Capture the flag. The other modes are pretty stressful lol. But yeah, I usually also go for the Engy. Scout if I feel particularly adventurous, sometimes Sniper on 2Fort. Spy intrigues me but I’m just not able to use it, I’m a disaster.

An ad is something that a 3d party buys to appear on a platform. This is a recommendation by the platform itself, so I would not define it as an ad

Oh, definitely agree with you on that one. I was only defending the right of a platform to suggest content to its users, regardless of what that content is

Reddit shows you communities that you are not subscribed to in your subscription feed.

Yeah, like I said, not spam and not an ad. It’s just an internal algorithmic recommendation

No, even if they wanted to, they have no expertise in UGC and they don’t have the infrastructure to do any of that

It’s the Babylon Bee. Not spam, not an ad. Maybe shit, but still

IMHO you always have to stay informed. Just find a news source that does not create too much FUD and you’re set. E.g: Axios, NPR, Reuters, etc

You can also use their DNS server without having to install anything

OK I read the bandcamp thing and… It’s not enshittification at all. Can we stop applying the term to every online service that kinda gets slightly worse for some reason or another?

Just in case:

Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification

None of those things happened with Bandcamp

You’re probably better off using dedicated websites for each site you need to download videos from.

They are usually ridden with ads, but it’s not a problem if you use uBlock Origin or similar addons

Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

Is this true? Where can I read more about it?

While I kinda like what Bellingcat does, you do have a point. Crowdsourcing decisions rarely lead to good outcomes

But it looks like Proton does not choose the beneficiaries. From their statement:

‘Recipients are nominated by the Proton community and selected based on community feedback. Proton doesn’t nominate the recipients. Recipients cannot be changed after the raffle begins and the fact that some find Bellingcat controversial was not known beforehand.

I have very high hopes for this game, I hope crowd funding will help

No, they mean like “kilocelsius” or “millicelsius”, which makes them prefixes

GUYS, IT’S HAPPENING

Because the pope is old and frail and every illness might kill him

You have to thank the Mashall Plan for that

This looks genuinely interesting
