Yeah, that’s what made me get premium. Even before the adblocker crackdown, the prospect of supporting creators and being able to ditch Spotify’s horrible artist compensation model made it a simple choice.

Apple flexing their anti-competitive muscles again.

From locking down the OS to proprietary charging and a staunch opposition to right to repair, their track record has been nothing but anti-consumer for the last decade and a half.

And the worst part is that they’ve gotten away with it for so long and so often that they managed to inspire Android device manufacturers (ahem…Samsung) to follow in their footsteps. Someone really ought to step in and break up the company, Microsoft anti-trust style.

Yeah, I’ll look into that. It’s just a shame to have to do extra work and spend extra money because a company decides to screw you over after your purchase.

Well, look who’s looking like an idiot for setting up my entire house with Hue lights recently after running two bulbs with local control for years… sigh it’s getting mighty frustrating having to deal with companies hoarding your data.

That was the most infuriating thing about this whole post to me. Elon’s braindead take is on brand and expected at this point, but that chart (or worse, the reaserch behind it) is the true crime here.

Companies are held to certain expedience standards when it comes to removal. If you request it and the company doesn’t delete within the described maximum time, they will get fined under GDPR.

I know, this was inresponse to the other post about which parts of the GDPR to implement. If I had to pick any one feature to carry over from the GDPR into whatever legislation we get on this side of the ocean, I’d pick the right to deletion.

I’d much rather they implement the right to deletion. I know they will get their hands on a ton of data, regardless of how we write the clause. But at least let me delete that data when I want it gone.

Seconded, I’d want to see that too.

Ah okay, that makes sense. I’ll keep checking in on the project then until that’s ready. I don’t want to use my system’s default browser due to corporate filtering, so whenever this feature is implemented I’m ditching Sync :-)

Hmmm, the link on that GitHub issue seems to be going nowhere (at least, it doesn’t load for me). Any instructions on how I can set the default browser behaviour?

Thanks for responding to me, yes that is exactly what I’m looking for. It’s this supported on Android too?

Any chance you’ll include the option to select which browser to use as the default rendered? Sync let’s me choose that currently, and it’s one of my main reasons for using that over Voyager, because I much prefer the Voyager UI (and ad-free experience).

I will gladly, cheerfully, trade any 39c day for a -39c day. Cold is easily manageable with more / better clothes. Even when dressed for the heat, it still saps your energy like crazy and makes you feel like shit in the process.

I’ve been a KeePass user for over a decade and it’s always been good to me, especially when using Box and OneDrive to sync it between devices. The ecosystem is great with enough plugins and support to make it fit your use case on any modern OS.

Can’t recommend it enough. Especially over other options that are offered by a commercial company (LastPass for example). Not only because you’re intently placing your trust in then to not expose your data and keep it secure, but also because you’re giving them a lot of leverage to turn around and hold your passwords for ransom at some point in the future (when they IPO for instance, as a popular example) or lock you out after they come for whatever reason.
