Reading their other comments, i think they are not using a real number/a number they don’t have access to, and signal is requiring to verify it/ “secure it” after the update. Thus, even tho the messages are stored locally they can’t access it without doing something with the number

I can’t understand why many sites (even google) still uses IP to determine language. My browser explicitly tells what language i prefer.

If your keepass database is encrypted then backup it in cloud

3rd point depends on how the VPN advertises itself. If it advertises itself as nordVPN used to do then it’s a scam. If it advertises itself what a vpn actually does then it’s not a scam

Best way to explain is probably not explain at all in the beginning and let them create an account in a well federated instance. That will not make them confused and learn by using it.

In someone else’s instance you can be defederated in two ways from an instance you want to interact - the instance you’re in defederates - the other instance defederate the instance you’re in

In your own instance you can see one option is gone now.

I use grayjay to watch twitch as i already use it to watch youtube. It works fine. Their privacy policy.

Will it be legal? Recently honey extension was caught doing this, though without user consent.

Even with user consent, would businesses work with firefox affiliate if it is not actually attracting sales, but taking a portion of sales, and thus reducing profit, just because the sale is made through the browser?

Firefox tried “privacy friendly ad” but that has also received community backslash because it turns users into products and doing anything like that would make their profit engine go boom and exploit private data. Wouldn’t the similar backslash also apply in affiliated sales?

Recent firefox policy change is controversial, but how brave is better?

While good quality subtitles are essential VLC can’t ensure that, it’s the responsibility of the production studio. AI subtitles on vlc are for those videos which doesn’t have any sub (which are a lot). The pushback shouldn’t be for vlc implementing AI, but production studios replacing translators or transcriber with AI (like crunchyroll tried last year).

Also while transcribing and subtitle editing is a labour intensive job, use of AI to help the editors shouldn’t be discouraged, it can increase their productivity by automating repeatative tasks so that they can focus on better quality.
