Yeah, you should disable this feature in your client. Spammers use that data too, to determine if the address is active, can be spammed more.
If you use a duck duck go email, they'll filter that for you.
protonmail too
One is repeat users and the other is new potential users. This is two different type of users. It is probably expected that repeat users outnumber new users
RSS was always all we needed.
He's tracking fedi too. Guess that's a +1 from me on that stat.
Holy shit how can you read that? For a minute I thought the text was encoded until maybe I clicked a button, then I thought it might be Arabic, now I see that's it's English but I can't even make out all the letters. No thanks.
Did you maybe accidentally turn on the "drunk" mode at the top?
It does seem like what I'm seeing would be someone's idea/joke of a drunk mode, but it's how the page loads for me - I didn't click anything. And I can't read the buttons to see if one days "turn off drunk mode".
Press one of these two buttons (🌒Dark) (☀️Light):
You can switch the themes right below the socials and the profile picture. I have no idea what happened, because when I load the site, it's loading in dark mode. It's definitely the drunk mode, though that button is off-screen
Weird, it didn't activate it by default for me. But it's just one of the themes at the top. Just click "Dark" or something and it'll switch to that.
Hey! I run that website - sorry the Drunk Mode was confusing. It shouldn't activate by default. Have you previously visited and turned it on?
I don't remember your name or the URL, and I'm not finding it in my browsing history, but it's possible I visited before. But I can't imagine why I would have ever turned on drunk mode, let alone left it on.
Lmao beer goggles for the web, activating at random
