Yeah that's the most brazen part. They're more than happy to pull in a dozen set of fees, but cry when they have to clearly list them so people aren't taken advantage of. This is the type of rubbish that the "free market" produces and why there needs to be some level of government oversight.

Eventually it was bound to happen. Still sad to see mods getting removed to make way for more Spez friendly replacements

I think the end conclusion wasn't great. He said

I'd say the over exploitation of JavaScript to leverage tracking, interaction and marketing has helped create the poor experiences we now have on web. The underlying technology when used for creating interactive and helpful UIs is very beneficial

The Firefox team responded saying that it's an awful idea and that plenty of people rely on being able to appear human, for example screen readers who need to interact as a human would but then translates it into a format their users can understand.

Old mate certainly has birds flying around in his empty head, that's for sure

Horrific article to read, old mate had to go to fires by himself and respond to emergencies from black people while all the white people hid. Terrible

They're doing great work on their destroy any positive community sentiment Speedrun, it's been shocking decision after terrible change

Seen this sentiment that green bubbles = bad a few times online but never it's never come up for me. I assume this is a teen - early adult specific issue where the idea is mostly to be part of the group

About the same when you ask for a good GUI replacement for X and someone replies "just use the command line", like cheers for that men, not what I'm asking for.
