A botnet that gives you shitcoins every so often

Bro he literally almost scrolled past this 🫢

Pasted from an earlier comment:

through the magic of Google Groups we can even laugh at sports fans' forgotten shit takes they posted to Usenet 40(!) years ago:

Also, we were were cringeworthy than they are now. I was there in the late '90s and the early 2000s. I remember the forum posts, the livejournal drama, the unfunny memes, the rise of MySpace. The Xanga sites alone were far more cringeworthy than Tumblr ever was, even if you ignore the underage nudes AND early 2000s fanfiction that people posted on their Xanga pages it was still worse. At least zoomers don't have emo hair and post about their angst in the form of shitty poetry with handles like xXx_darkbl4de_st0rmwind_xXx, and those of us born in the mid '80s through the early '90s cannot always say the same.

And that's even considering the fact that Google deliberately throttles Firefox on their sites

This would be better than what they currently do, which is just upsetting. For example, let's make a water-type panda Pokémon:

1. cute blue panda cub
2. darker blue panda, slightly bigger and with longer limbs, with lame attempt at giving it "attitude"
3. somebody's blue panda fursona with abs, pecs, and a crotch bulge

or
3. somebody's blue panda fursona with Pixar mom hips and a bust with a fur tuft on it

It's The Guardian, they were probably paid to advertise for Threads

Because Lemmy hasn't been ruined quite yet

Yeah I've seen a few things get messed up by that idiotic rule. When you euphemistically say "reasons" in italics, it sounds worse than it is. I assumed you were trying to gently tell people "Google suspended the dev for being racist" or something.

What reasons?

They added features that benefit power users and developers? I'm sure someone at Mozilla will be fired for this soon enough
