That’s true,
but hey, filtering and blocking out 90% of the unwanted/negative content is already way better then getting blasted by the full 100%! :D
Full stack developer and privacy advocate. I like to keep the mentality, if you can program one language well, then you can program in any language!

Bliss for mental health indeed,
been doing this for a while now,
zero regrets.
I have an MSI Bravo 17 for work since this month,
quite happy about it so far.
My experience with MSI is best price/value for hardware specs, but with shitty build quality.
However this one feels quite sturdy compared to earlier MSI laptops.
It can get loud under heavy duty,
but it goes quiet again under low workload,
for now at least, my previous MSI laptop sounded like a jet engine whenever it was powered on.
The one you posted seems particularly suited to run Linux upon, since it’s an all AMD machine, and their Linux support is great.
I like the electric part.
What I don’t like is that it’s a steaming heap of spy-ware on wheels with no opt-out ability.
Which may lead to more expensive insurance depending on your driving style, or could be abused for even more nefarious reasons.
I like and been using JetBrains IDEs for years now,
and am/was happily paying for a good product.
However I feel like they’ve been going backwards in the last year or 2,
it feels less premium,
and more like your a paying beta tester,
since lately I deal with bugs in their IDEs too often to my liking.
But this news kinda scares me,
usually if something is free,
then you are the product,
paying with your data.
Which I can see happen to these IDEs now :/
Especially in this day and age where massive data collection by big tech is sadly normalized, and where coding data likely is wanted to be trained upon by AI companies with the current ongoing hype bubble and all.
If that would start to happen to JetBrains products, I fear for enshitiffication in the forms of:
And further once the AI bubble pops,
which will lead to less demand for data,
since there will be less companies.
Manjaro,
benefits of Arch,
while being gamer ready,
easier to use and more stable.
It also has a GUI to manage your graphics drivers.
It’s a fork of VSCode,
VSCodium disables the telemetry,
and also implements a privacy respecting mirror to download addons from.
Other than the icon,
they will use/feel like identical IDEs though,
but only VSCodium will respect your privacy.
Hope you can live with yourself,
you professional spreader of spy-ware.
It’s not LibreWolf, but how about IceRaven?

Has been my goto FireFox fork for Android for years.
No, instead they raped his rights with some ToS…
I’ve been happily using the clock app that comes embedded with LineageOS for years now.
If you don’t want to switch to LineageOS,
then you can still find/install it from ApkMirror:

Spying on you :P
That’s why I replaced it with MicroG:

Imagine living in China,
where the government is able to request data of each company in their country.
Imagine that China would setup an AI/LLM,
to feed all private chat data into it,
and automatically flagging opposition of the government regime.
Imagine a white van appearing in front of your house and disappearing into a concentration camp because you got flagged after expressing your opposition to the government to your mate in a private chat.
All collected data can be abused like that,
or by other means (E.g. a country at war gets hacked, which could lead to leaking critical private information on political/defensive decisions).
To me the question is not if data collected on you will be abused, but rather when will it be abused?
Just having it stored somewhere imposes risks.
Privacy should be a basic human right.
Data collection could be massively abused by oppressive governments.
Not caring about it = Not caring about your rights.
OP I agree with you, it’s a great idea imo.
I’ve been a moderator before on a Discord server with +1000 members, for one of my FOSS projects,
and maintenance against scam / spam bots grew so bad,
that I had to get a team of moderators + an auto moderation bot + wrote an additional moderation bot myself!..
Here is the source to that bot, might be usable for inspiration or just plain usable some other users:
https://github.com/Rikj000/Discord-Auto-Ban
I think it will only be a matter of time before the spam / scam bots catch up to Lemmy,
so it’s good to be ahead of the curve with auto-moderation.
However I also partially agree with @dohpaz42, auto-moderation on Reddit is very, uhm, present.
Imo auto moderation should not really be visible to non-offenders.
Happily been using it for a few years by now.
The enhanced privacy, extension and about:config support are great features to have.
Thank you for LibreSpeed! <3
Been using it for a few years now,
and it’s become my go-to network speed testing tool
Sure hope so.
Pro or anti consumer features? x’)
