Developers make more money than I do, and I need to worry about my own food first lol. I'd pay $35 one time, but I also remember a time not that long ago where $10 one-time could buy you basically anything on the app store lol.

I like the app, but I hate recurring fees more. Jerboa is free. It might not be perfect, but it works, is ad-free, is on F-Droid, and is infinitely more affordable than $17/yr.

Daaaaaaaamn, my community was just getting some traction. It's crazy people's lives are so devoid of purpose that they choose to spend it attacking a relatively small music-based instance.

Thanks for dealing with it as long as you did. Guess it's time to pack up and move to another instance :/

Nope. From an article about the debt ceiling bill that resumed student loan payments in June: "Some $886 billion will be spent on defense, according to the bill text."

That's an increase after a $858 billion defense bill passed in december

Biden's student loan forgiveness only would have cost $400 billion, but spending almost $2 trillion per year on ending people's lives is more important.

Which browsers are best for privacy?

I just run Firefox with uBlock Origin, but if I was real tinfoil hat about this stuff I would go for LibreWolf, or just the Tor Browser.

Brave bugs me because I don't want my web browser to be a crypto wallet lol (also, the only cryptocurrency I actually have faith in is Monero).
