Seriously, this bot is great. It's one of my favourite parts of finding news through Lemmy, just like it used to be on the old site.

What even is the point of this change?! What could it possibly improve?
There is a way to enable arbitrary add-ons to work on Firefox for Android, but you have to do a few extra steps: register a Firefox account, create a collection of extensions, then add that collection to your phone. I can tell you that Conset-o-Matic definitely works if you take this route.
IMO these are exactly the kinds of reasons why you might switch to something else. Audio quality is "good enough" everywhere, but Spotify seems the most apt of the streaming service at worsening their UI with each update.
Do you know if hardware decode of 4K HEVC works on the Orange Pi 5?
I haven't used passkeys yet, but I would hope that you can have multiple keys per site, not just one. So, after going through some initial pain of setting up each individual device, it should be nice having local-only keys for each of them, which you could revoke at any time.
Password managers are also adding support for passkeys, so you should be able to sync them if you so wish.
Encryption isn't banned. The government could just ask service providers to decrypt content at any time, allegedly so that it can be scanned for child abuse. This is impossible with e2ee, so such services may become impossible to operate in the UK.
Most traditional banks charge a fee for transactions in foreign currencies. This is usually a percentage fee (something like 1.5 – 3% of the the amount of the transaction), plus potentially a fixed fee. This should be clearly outlined in the document that describes the fees on your account.
These fees are added on top of a base exchange rate. There are a few different exchange rates commonly used, of which Revolut's is usually one of the best, but the differences between them are probably not big enough to worry about.
With Revolut, you get a base amount of free currency exchange, I think 1000 EUR per month. Beyond this, there's an additional fee of 0.5 – 1%. You can increase this amount through a subscription, but he aware that once you start your plan, you need to keep it for at least 12 months, even if you pay monthly.

Ah, interesting! They do both turn into links on Alexandrite, but on the official frontend and on Photon only the community does (the user stays as plain text).
Is there a way to link to communities or users? For example, could typing !
start a search for communities and @
a search for usernames?
Yeah, I see it. Horrible for the users though...
