Be careful, your understanding of incognito mode in Firefox may be wrong and that could be costing you
This isn't well known?

Of course, one could argue that a Willy Wonka-inspired event that ended with angry parents and crying children is more authentic to Dahl’s novel than any of the recent Wonka movies.
this was funny.

I Installed Android on my iPhone (For Real) - YouTube

I'd rather not use iOS at all. Android is infinitely more customizable, powerful, and privacy friendly (with the right OS).
On the topic of your braindead take in this. Make iOS open source first. It's almost like opensource breeds interoperability and closed source breed cultists who think they're better by default.

Guy who tortured a wolf and paraded it's body around is now receiving death threats
Man, that sad, defeated face in the wolf. The title made me think it was just torture and I assumed he got saved. But the fucker killed it. He deserves every shit he gets.

Mishaal Rahman: Wow - Google may be planning to ship a major kernel upgrade to all its (Tensor-powered) Pixel phones!
Mishaal is on Mastodon too. He mirrors all his posts there. we should stop posting Xitter links.

Russia plans to try to block VPN services in 2024
Hmm… does that mean their plan to secede from the regular internet isn't working out so well?

I feel so bad for this lady. Hopefully she is doing better now.

There's literally a thing called "honor killings" in some parts of the world. I wish I was joking but wishing someone to die is better than what some people might do.

Has the mobile update that re added all addons get released yet?
No, they only announced plans to work together with devs to make the transition to mobile easier. It wasn't a "all addons will work on Firefox android" announcement. Hopefully most popular addons transition

Twitter is burning, Bluesky is smug. Where is the best place to do your pathetic doomscrolling?
How is mastodon condescending? is this something just to fill that "make something up about a trending topic" quota.

The sooner Android accepts RCS is dead, the sooner we can choose the next messaging platform that matters
they mainly use iOS
Well that's not a RCS problem, is it?
it's not interested, and if you want to send your mom high-res videos, you're better off buying her — or yourself — an iPhone
The article is basically repeating "fuck standardisation because a company is not playing fair, so let's give them more money"

Telegram starts to look like a super app, echoing WeChat
I use Telegram for the random chatter but it's getting bloated ever since they added premium features. I understand they have to make money, but some features like stories can't be disabled at all, and they're selling group names with crypto. Matrix is looking a lot better moving forward.

Floorp Browser: One of the best fork of firefox in customization
Reply in thread
AFAIK it's maintained by a group called Ablaze and I think I saw them mention they are university students and opensource enthusiasts in Github discussions.
There are blog posts on their site about changes to their team and leadership. Their blog is in Japanese but I just translate it with Firefox's inbuilt translator. So I don't think it's a single dev.

Hiding read posts means they're now lost (when you’re logged in) if you didn't save the link somewhere. Can't find it after a day and now you have to check it on incognito.
But if you don't hide posts you've already read, you end up with the same posts on your feed.
it's a very small nitpick though. having new posts load every time I visit lets me see a lot of new content, I wouldn't have seen otherwise.
I hope some app devs can put up a section for "read posts" locally so instances aren't overwhelmed.

Thanks for making this but some screenshots or a walkthough would be nice. Also any plans to publish it on f-droid?
