In Lula's first six months, Brazil Amazon deforestation dropped 34%, reversing trend under Bolsonaro
This will be good news only when we start hearing about reforestation rates exceeding deforestation. Till then it's just various levels of bad.

Is there a better way to hide posts other than voting or showing comments?
Commenting for visibility. I'd love to know if this has a solution.

USB-c to headphone jack converters are an option. Not ideal because you can't use it and charge the phone simultaneously, but certainly better than those wireless buds.

‘Safe and effective’: first malaria vaccine to be rolled out in 12 African countries
That's great news! One upside of Covid is that it increased funding toward vaccine development strategies. Hopefully we'll get even more effective vaccines for other hard to treat diseases.

There's nothing wrong with using Reddit, Twitter, and other mainstream site still while being active on fediverse.
You vote at the ballot and with your dollar and data. It's easy to stand by your values once every 2 or 4 years and cast your vote, but it's harder and, I'd argue, possibly more important, to withdraw support from corporations that you disagree with. It's impossible to get this right all the time, but in the case of Facebook, Twitter, and reddit they make it easy for us to see if we want to support them.

VPN for Torrenting
Reply in thread
Their decision to block port forwarding was unfortunate, but understandable. I've been using it for the past year and when I first started, I rarely ran into any issues with being blacklisted. Now it's a nearly daily occurrence. I don't know how true it is, but Mullvad claimed that much of the activity leading to blocked IPs came from activity related to port forwarding. If that's true, then I'd say the decision is good. Like others have said, torrenting is still possible without port forwarding, but it's also true that rarer content and private trackers become difficult. Ultimately there was no perfect solution here.
