  • Rather rude to group them all together like that. If we’re talking mud daubers or paper wasps, we’re totally chill.

    Ground-nesting yellowjackets get the boiling water and dish soap treatment in the dead of the night if they’re in the yard. I’ve had too many cases of cleaning up yard debris and suddenly getting attacked by the little bastards to attempt peaceful coexistence.


  • Yep, after I found this out I ditched Chrome immediately once they started rolling out Google Search ads that couldn’t be blocked via DNS. Firefox mobile feels a little less smooth than Chrome admittedly, but the ability to add extensions like ublock/darkreader/consent-o-matic make is a no contest in terms of overall user experience.

    The one knock is that they took bypass paywalls out of their extension store and the workaround to install it is somewhat cumbersome, so now I’m annoyingly using Kiwi browser for paywalled content and Firefox for everything else. Hopefully this update will make it so I only need one browser again.




  • Partially yes, partially no. It depends on the use case.

    If I’m looking to idly scroll random content, sure, it’s great!

    For online community, definitely. Given the open disregard that Reddit Inc leadership has shown towards the community, developers, and volunteers who keep the show running, I don’t feel comfortable contributing there anymore.

    If i’m looking for specialized information on a specific topic, definitely not. Google Search + site:reddit.com still reigns here.
