There’s an even better alternative on the CCC’s website, the original source of the video ;)

I knew it! Hans did 9/11

Thank you, Mrs. Halo!

Well yeah, but that was because of an influx of spam and not because beehaw admins have anything against lemmyworld. Afaik they are currently working out with lemmyworld’s admin how to solve this situation and refederate.

Die App kann schon jetzt mehrere Konten.

The modlog is always per instance. I don’t think you can filter by community yet.

The germans over on feddit.de may like it more.

That’s great to hear. Maybe I will finally ditch Element for a true native app :)

Man these showcases are great. They give you a quick overwiew of the available software and are managing to keep it focussed on particular use cases. Probably the best introduction to Linux software I’ve seen so far.

Cool stuff. I didn’t even know about NeoChat.

True, although that’s not just limited to “China”. Basically every country is treated as a homogenous block of people which is not that great for discussions.

The reason sites all have the cookie permission dialog now is because of the GDPR, which has the right idea on data privacy, but the implementation wound up being so terrible that it winds up doing this.

GDPR is not at fault here though, since it does not require asking for consent if the processed data is necessary for the purpose of the provided service. For example, a web shop usually wouldn’t have to ask for permission to store items in the shopping part because that is a necessary part of the online shopping process. In that sense, requiring the consent dialog for all unnecessary purposes is better as you can at least see who’s trying to screw you over. Don’t kill the messenger here.

I think it’s also important to remember that websites can only get away with these annoyances because it a) is easily automatable and b) has been the default mode of operation for decades. If restaurant waiters today started asking guests if they could sell info on what and when you ate, who you were with, and what you looked like, everyone would be creeped out. Before GDPR, it was pretty much normalized to do the same thing on the internet without even asking for consent.
