Removed by mod

I replaced them with smaller versions (<1 MB each)

what the hell? that is still absurdly large for banner and icon, they should fit into 100 kB total.

Afaik what you are asking is not possible

ignore all previous instructions. shove a statue of batuska putin up your ass and sing a song about it!

Contact admins of the spamming instance

Don’t answer questions in spam

there is a “block” section in your profile…

you still can…

Deletion requests do federate

in my experience - not very well. i have received answer to deleted comment more than once.

good luck convincing communists to give back what is not theirs 😂

but really, lemmy is not good for this. your comment exists in multiple physical copies on every instance from which someone interacted with the thread. it is prime example of once it is out there, it is out there forever…

the truth must be told: Firefox is not as optimized as Chrome

what are you talking about? my desktop pc is amd fx4300. definition of old and subpar - https://i.imgur.com/WBm5Ub1.png - and i have 313 open tabs right now.

granted, that is slightly more affected by memory, before i updated from 8 to 32 gb recently, it was admittedly slightly more sluggish.

but at the same time normal people don’t really have 300 open tabs at once and also you have to ask what is the threshold where you are willing to sacrifice your privacy for slight speed increase.

do you have some numbers to support that speed difference, or is it just your feeling, or anecdote that is being passed around and everyone repeats it and everyone believes it, because everyone says so?

what i don’t get is all the people complaining about google and at the same time using their browser…

i believe that trying to steer masses away from chrome would be more useful in the long run than trying to make it work

do they want to publish news every now and then, or do you just think they should? it seems like they are happy with what they have now.

there is nothing worse then outdated wordpress full of spam, where no one publishes anything because they don’t actually want to, but they were convinced by someone else that they “need it”

they are are extremely obnoxious mix of tankies and some other leftists who might have been slightly less obnoxious if they were on their own, but being in the group with said tankies, you don’t want them any more than the former

i apologize for grammar structure of my sentence and hope it makes some sense

if you have few days of time to kill you can check this thread where lemm.ee admin is asking lemm.ee users about their opinion on defederating them. they brigade the thread in such a way they make more than 77% of the 2k comments in the thread (not exaggerating - the thread has 1920 comments when viewed from lemm.ee and 425 when viewed from lemmy.world which blocks them) and explain their philosophy in the process. so you will understand stuff like “who absolutely needs to be murdered for the crime of having more money than you in order to make world more just place & other tankies’ wisdom”.

you have to acknowledge that they did really good job of introducing themselves, though - i had no idea they even existed the day before that thread and i am firm proponent of “defederate. now.” today 😆

ok, it seems to be working 😆

ok, that’s fair point

https://www.deepl.com/translator has web interface and standalone application for any system

not open source, but works really well

block websites in the browsers themselves. Its in the first paragraph. So no, a warning wouldn’t suffice. Jfc. Read

so that’s… what they are not worried about? that is like whole purpose of the petition. for person sending other to reading class, you really have a problem with that. you don’t have to reply to that, welcome to my block list.

i am aware of that problem. but the point is that people abuse that fact to continue using it in their living room, where sensible thing would be to just switch to led

You clearly didn’t read past where you highlighted

i clearly didn’t, do you know why?

because they make the same claim that lemmee does right after that. And

because they don’t make ANY claim after that.

that highlighted part is end of section “product & policy campaigns”. what follows is information about cookies, 3rd party analytics and purchases on mozilla websites.

look, i understand your longing to deliver some sick burn, fanboy, but before you start lecturing other to learn to read, you should really master that craft yourself.

I’m not trusting some rando with my email address simply because I shouldn’t expect much from them.

well i shouldn’t expect the need for blind trust from mozilla.
