Bin versehentlich nicht viel zu schnell genug gefahren heute. Schwerer Fehler.
That's horrible. Moved from vanced to revanced the moment it was properly working with the manager tool. Had the chance to look at the stock app a couple of days ago. It's not even about the ad-blocking anymore. The stock app is borderline unusable.
Also fun fact: Youtube managed to pull off a cobra-effect with their recent fight on adblocking. That was a fun realisation when I heard of that.
People are asshats. That's why
It's all about cost reduction and fraud prevention. Those cheap stickers are simply tamper-proof, getting easily destroyed upon removal. Prevents being resticked onto other items. A simple example would be thiefes who remove discount labels or price tags from cheap items and put those onto expensive items, ready to argue that the item must've been mislabled by the store and then insist on the low price. Doesn't work with a tampered sticker.
Also, there actually are easy-to-remove labels being used - just not for pricing out stuff.
At least for me this is what I get when trying to install it. I have to request free access manually. I don't like that business model.
Wow! I didn't know such an extension exists! Thank you! Searching for "DeArrowing" instead of "DeArrow" threw my results off.
Edit: On second thought, it's a paid extension... meh
Please help me as a non-native english speaker out: What is DeArrowing? Or what do you mean by it? Google turned up nothing helpful.
That's just sad. I hope my ~20$ a year that I donate to a few of my most needed OSS-projects are helping somewhat.
Damn, I didn't know that. Now I'm sad.
Signal uses donations to keep running. That's one of the reasons why they don't need to do this kind of crap. Kinda like Firefox.
It's sad to see that slowly but surely the Internet gets divided into the more and more useless giant sector and the free and open sector, which just doesn't get the attention it needs to be attractive enough for most to switch over. And then there's also this weird shadow area where I often hear those pirate chanties from...
I love the sound and view of a good trashfire, so I sometimes go look and see how hard it's burning.
So /r/madlads Mods did what madlads do: They made everyone a moderator just like /r/politicalhumor did from the beginning of the protest. I brought the idea up to the /r/pics mod just to let them know. Would be funny as hell.
Postwise, Bots started reposting content from 2-3 years ago, ChatGPT was spotted multiple times as a replying user and smaller subs returned to normal, but are slowly drowning in spambot posts or switched to approval-only due to the failing tools.
EDIT: A major antispambot on reddit closes down today by unbanning EVERY SINGLE SPAMBOT on reddit. Did I mention that I love watching things burn down?
To me it feels like the whole ordeal shook reddit quite a bit and made maybe the top 10% of the users drop out of the bucket this way, going to the Fediverse (flavors: lemmy, kbin, mastodon) as far as I can tell right now. Tildes and squabbles got some users, too, but IMHO those seem to be not doing well so far.

I guess you have super hot snow over there. Pretty cool!
