No, it's because WhatsApp was free at a time where SMS were not (you might have a few included in your plan, but you couldn't rely on that)

I am a tech nerd over 30, using a mixture of windows and linux, and watch porn. While I'm not a furry, they have great art IMHO so people can share it even if they aren't 100% into it. Some of it might even be ideologically driven, against the anti-porn drive: Add a lot of good porn content so that in case e.g. Reddit shuts down NSFW there is a good alternative.

I also heard that. But is it actually the case that a significant number of people don't use the file explorer (because they often use tablets/smartphones and not a desktop/laptop PC as main device, which is what I heard as reason) or is it just something people say?

I remember Macron once was like "well, US is too free for us, China is too restrictive, we need to be in the middle".

For me, it has gone to normal. All the subreddits I frequented are open and populated with the exception of one which has been permanently privated, but not to protest.

Tbh, most websites I visit probably aren't that important that they need to be archived. I would assume installing this extension would just contribute to a bloated archive with little additional value.

Wow, that's awful. I just use Firefox mobile + Adblock, which isn't very nice to reddit, but at least allows a somewhat decent experience - except for missing features like /r/Subreddit/comments, for which you have to go in Desktop mode.

On Android, I was not able to install it using Firefox (Button was there, but clicking it did nothing), but was using Google Chrome.

While I don't condone DDoS attacks, the only reason for D4 to be online-only is monetization IMO: Blizzard wants to sell cosmetics, so people have to see other people wearing them. There is little gameplay benefit from being an MMO-lite.

I hate them alongside any other extrinsic factors the game companies try to push on us to increase engagement. I want to want to play the game because I like playing it, not to get some reward or FOMO. This applies for battlepasses just as for daily quests or similar things. In fact, I recently have started to prefer games which are not (pseudo) MMOs as these usually come with way less bullshit even if I don't like the game as much. For example, I think Diablo's (at least 3, did not try out 4) gameplay is way superior to Grim Dawn's gameplay, but I still play the latter because it's not D3 and I want something different.
