UKCasual@lemmy.world•Monday: What have you got lined up this week?English
2·3 years agoOppenheimer on Imax this Wednesday, parties on Friday and Saturday.
I used influencers as an example, that’s true that they’re everywhere. But there’s many communities I follow that don’t care about Twitter politics, and they got little interest or even information to consider moving elsewhere.
The analogy of simply choosing different software doesn’t apply here. Because I can switch my os or calculator app. Those choices don’t depend on other people. Sadly, we still depend on being able to read content that other parties we care for still publish on Twitter even though I disagree with it as a to. Maybe they do or dont care. I can disagree with Twitter and like my influencers. For that, something like nitter is a good step in the direction. I want to move. As muchas I’d like to snap my fingers and have everyone into my network of personal choice. It cannot happen.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browserEnglish
3·3 years agoI feel that rather than DRM being illegal, Google and Chromium browsers having monopoly on the web is what allows these crazy ideas to have any room.
If the browser market was more evenly spread and there were more parties involved, these ideas woldn’t fly so easily.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Fairphone 3 gets 7 years of updates, besting every other Android OEM
51·3 years agoI renewed phones late last year and I pondered on getting the FP4, but I was unhappy with the camera and even though it’s replaceable it is not upgradeable. I got instead a Pixel 6A and it’s a pleasure to use (tolerating all the Google stuff).
I have high expcetations for FP5

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Does existence of a language authority influence opinions about descriptivism/prescriptivism?
1·3 years agoI Spanish, the Real academia de la lengua is often used incorrectly by people as a prescriptive reference but what they really do is gather the common usages and incorporate them into the language. It’s like a descriptive record of language.

And it is because of these lousy developers that live inside a Google world that people don’t want to use Firefox.
