The Russians are literally involved in an imperial war for conquest and is bombing civilians. They commit politically motivated murders in countries all over Europe, are implicated in democratically destabilizing efforts all over Europe and financing extreme right wing organizations and separatist movements, and actively undermining and meddling with democratic elections of European nations for over two decades. This is a known fact.

What the actual fuck are you talking about “red scare”? GTFO, nazi collaborator bot.

Nice!

Piedofiles.

“Ok guys, here it comes! Just like we practiced, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, NOOOW! EVERYBODY STAY PERFECTLY STILL!”

He threatened to sue that guy.

Here’s one of the Elon jet trackers on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/ElonJetTracker/

I called my rep and they said they won’t do it because the opposite of all those things keeps them in power.

The most overhyped game I’ve seen over the past year, they’re pushing the PR so damn hard.

THREE Porsches! THREE!

Have you got any clue how many Porsches that is?!?

(it’s three)

(THREE!!!)

I liked being able to accidentally brush up against my headphones or putting them down for a moment without them turning off my music.

All people can unless they are in the extreme minority that suffer from highly particular neuropathic disorders that render them absolutely dysfunctional as human beings. Having a weak drive for creativity and imagination is not the same as suffering from a clinical incapability.

This person is not wrong. I’m sadly incapable of breaking the cycle, but for the short periods that I do, my depression is greatly alleviated. Abandoning reddit was probably had the most positive impact on my mental health of anything I’ve done in years.

Historicaly the nazis were very popular in Ukraine […] They were seen as heroes and liberators by a lot of people.

That is a blatant exaggeration bordering on revisionism. They were seen as liberators by a minority upon invasion in 1941, that quickly changed once the people realized the facts of the occupation, and millions fought against the nazis.

THANK YOU. Jesus I’ve been looking for that for so long. If I had any web dev chops I’d make something like that and integrate with a scraper that takes headlines from all over the world and puts them in a matrix like that. I’d take something like it and do it for reddit or the fediverse as well, scrolling down post by post is such a dumb concept.

The only thing missing is a period.

People can’t take away your freedom?

This is the route I went years ago. Not only do i not feel like lugging around an obnoxiously long buttonless 1kg remote control, within two months the display will be shattered because I sneezed, and I will have to buy a new one because replacing the screen costs as much as a new phone.

I know they do that shit by design. Why would the back side of the phone need to be made of fucking glass? It’s literally the only reason I ever buy new phones, the screen is the only thing that ever breaks, and they never survive long enough to be “too old” to use.

None of those have worked for me on Android since a couple of months.

Firefox with uBlock Origin is the last bastion, and don’t think that’s not on their radar.

My suspicion is that the main purpose of Googles decision is to stop F-Droid and Aurora Store from working.

“No” is what I would prefer to say but for some reason “that is extremely unlikely” hits the point home harder.

You can research a phone you like and check if it has an unlockable bootloader, root it, and install something like LineageOS on it. It’s fairly straight-forward, not super technically demanding, but it does require some tinkering and time setting up.

xdaforums.com is where the rooting kids hang out, post guides for specific models, upload images et c, you can probably do it in an afternoon with GPT.

The issue is that some apps, notably banking and official type apps, usually don’t work as they rely on google services for operation. I solve it by having a cheap secondary phone that I only use for that stuff.

Oh, I almost forgot: FUCK YOU GOOGLE
