Google pays Firefox to have Google Search as the default search engine. Chrome is not the major money maker. It doesn’t even earn any money.

I hate you so much 🤣😭

Fair point. I don’t think I thought of this lol.

I heard the same for Android and I was pretty supportive of the sentiment until I listened to the Android Faithful podcast episode discussing it…

If Google doesn’t develop Android, nobody will. Whoever buys Android, we don’t know if they will maintain the AOSP. Android has been an equal parts rollercoaster of good and bad ideas thanks to Google, but it has had someone do that…

Maybe LineageOS could take over, but that’s just insane wishful thinking.

This is so dumb 🤣🤣

Its the FINAL COUNTDOWN! PINUNEEENUUUUU!

Ackshually, its El Kangaroo, the Pussy is silent.

When I get married, I’m thinking hyphenated, with her using her last name first, and vice versa. But last names can be pretty large. Idk how to tackle that.

All that enshittification is hard work.

This is the first time I’ve seen Pornhub block a place as opposed to the place blocking PH 😂🤣😂🤣

I hope you’re doing okay now.

I think the most important problem with how this worked out is that many of those who left Reddit by deleting their content didn’t find a place to transfer it to on Lemmy or other platforms…

I personally have been intentionally starting conversations recently…

I forgot about this website. Dammit I feel dumb.

Edit: OHHHHHHHHHHH this meme. Ffs .

Can we stop with the AI-focused bullshit?

Marketing that is the second place annoyance I have…

Looks like a USA problem.

Idk about 2FA, but updating friends and family is insanely easy on most messaging platforms. I can update my phone number and then WhatsApp or Telegram will prompt those who chat with me that I’ve changed my number and they can switch to that number for chatting.

WhatsApp:

Notice received when the number is changed on WhatsApp:

Telegram:

As for contacting businesses, this seems like a personal situation, since I contact companies via the above messaging apps. So they will receive a notification about my updated number.

I’ll verify if this is optional, so we can choose if people get that notice…

Edit:

You can’t specify who gets informed. If you’ve blocked someone, they will not get that notification.

I’ve also added images above to demonstrate how it works on the two platforms I mentioned.

What is the Loss meme?

Narrator: the internet did, in fact, understand the reference.

Lol

Yeah, now that I’ve read about EEE more, it seems probable that they’d do some shit like this.

We need to make the Fediverse’s entry easier for the common man. Maybe by having a default instance for major apps like Mastodon (their instance is mastodon.social or something I believe) offered on the signup page… We can have an additional list at the bottom by clicking a button, suggesting the options and why they exist.

But if we don’t make it easier for the common man, we won’t be able to compete.

Yeah. A baseline is needed for sure. Moderation is definitely necessary.
