Hmm I was gonna suggest Mastodon. I always thought it allowed long-form writing similar to blog posts.

Great research! Thank you for at least looking into this, as I've been having this issue for months now. Just to add to your information, I'd probably rule out Ublock origin. Because it happens even when using Firefox on my Android, which doesn't have any plugins installed. I've even tried using Brave on my Android and still get the same behavior. Refreshing fixes it and logs me in automatically (sometimes). Other times I have to actually log in again. Hope this helps!

 

Brave used to have an option to disable autoplaying of videos on web pages. But now the option is removed. I found discussions on Brave forums from users asking about it, but no one from the Brave team responds. (see this, this, and this).

I really don't want to believe Brave is intentionally being silent about this, but it's kinda obvious.

Anyone know anything about it?

Yeah, I misunderstood. Maybe RSS feeds probably aren't a good solution for replies in an individual nested thread within a post.

I can see that becoming chaotic to manage after subscribing to a handful of threads, all in separate RSS feeds. You'd be constantly subscribing and unsubscribing to deal with all the potential noise 😬

Left a comment to another user in this feed. Do you use RSS feeds at all? If so, you can use that to get notifications. But if you don't use RSS feeds for sites, probably not worth it.

You can if you use RSS feeds. For instance an RSS feed for the threads in this post is at https://openrss.org/beehaw.org/post/15660443.

This is great news! Weird that I'm subscribed on all of the earlier Firefox GitHub discussions and didn't notice it. I wonder which version was the first to have Firefox support feature in it.

Ubuntu here as well! Sticking with just the LTS versions tho 😎

Ah ok. I use the acme.sh script. It's a pretty neat tool. Glad you got it all working again!

I've had this same problem in the past with a couple of packages. What did you end up moving to?

[–] mark@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That was the first post. I posted another one a few months back that I've since deleted, which is probably why you can't see it.

I'm usually on mobile Brave browser on my Android. I'm always appearing to be logged out. But, sometimes, when I refresh, I'm suddenly automatically logged in. Other times I have to just login again.

Yup I realize its hard to to reproduce. Do you have a latest Android with mobile Brave browser you can test with?

Brought this same thing up in a post months ago and got quite a bit of downvotes and no help, so I never attempted to bring it up anymore lol. Maybe you'll have better luck. Saving this thread now... Thank you

The workaround I've been using is to just refresh the page. That tends to work... Sometimes... 🫠

 

Came across this interesting article. But what do you all think?

I personally wouldn't touch Discord with a 10 foot pole but figured any privacy-focused people who use it may want to know this.

 

I noticed that every time I visit the site, I have to log in. I remember not having to do this a few days ago. I was assuming a cookie was being set for a timeframe until I explicitly log out. I can't remember if there was a "remember me" button. I'm using Firefox and tried disabling my extensions, but that didn't seem to help.

Anyone know why sh.reddit.com exists? Is it something they plan to use in future? ATM, it just looks justlike reddit.com with a few small style differences.

 

I'm a dev and I was browsing Mozilla's careers page and came across this. I find a privacy respecting company being interested in building an AI powered recommendation engine a little odd. Wouldn't they need to sift through the very data we want private in order for a recommendation engine to be good? Curious of what others think.
