Define real

This is way better. Reddit is so messed up in so many ways who cares to even bother with that site.

That sounds not ya I’m sure it stops a , as long as the actual password is also strong. IMO there’s still some vulnerability. If someone finds out your password and notices thepattern ‘pass+Site’, then they mighttryyon another site.

Also why it’s a good idea to have a few emails yo use across multiple sites.

Yeah…that happens, but from my experience it works a lot of times

Try turning off JavaScript when ur faced with an overlaying paywall

Yes that’s definitely a concern to keep in mind.

The problem is that if someone doesn’t use a password manager they’re morenlikely to reuse weak ones.

Using a password manager is a better path, as long as there is awareness on how to keep it secured.

Might I add brave’s BAT wallet is garbage. You had to sign up to some random exchange and upload your ID (I didn’t), but even that you couldn’t even backup your wallet into a new install, so hope that you would never have to format or reinstall or change devices - it’ll be a pain to restore, if it was even possible.

Firefox over brave any day.

ya. I was confused at first because i went to try it out but no f-droid or any other way of getting it?

honestly i don’t know what you did to mess up a windows install like that, but i agree overall that linux is easier. However there are quirks that can arise for a new user that will eat time or seem daunting.

You’re right, I do. I only have 1 app. What’s wrong with me.

What is your most favorite one you’d recommend?

yeah what kind of crap is this.

What a sweet thing to do for a loved one.

for work purposes, ok fine. but personal purposes i’d try and steer clear as much as i can.

My general point is we should use alternatives whenever possible to discourage this kind of centralized power developing in the first place.

it will truly be messed up if essential websites block user access because of this

For sure, I agree and it’s bad. But frankly unsurprising. This is the trajectory of the internet: greater control.

We’ve become too dependent on centralized tech companies and erred in allowing tech companies to change, define, and control the internet in the first place.

Alternatives must be promoted in mass scale.

hey everyone a friendly reminder that alternatives exist, and just drop this shit fast and move to better alternatives. In this case firefox.

why are people indulging this company after all they did?

well, i guess some silver lining is that threads is basically non-existent after its launch. The serious and place to be instances will block threads. If i need to go see something on threads i’ll join an instance that allows it, but doubt i’d ever bother.

Didn’t even bother checking it out.

At this point where he is basically stripping the site of its users (paid + limits) and branding (removing the twitter bird) why didn’t he just start up his own social media site and slow grow it instead of wasting money to pillage the competitor and then strip it of everything that made it what it was, i.e., the user base and the brand recognition?

curious what the result of this case was, quick search didn’t come with any updates.

it feels much more fresh and spacious
