Firefox also has a mobile app with full extension support on Android, including uBlock origin

To my knowledge, DNS blockers not only miss a ton of ads, they also trigger several false positives.

A better solution is to switch to something not chromium like Firefox or whatever alternative the next Linux person to read this comment recommends

I was just discussing with a friend of mine how we’re rapidly approaching the dead internet. At some point, many websites will likely just be chat bots talking to other chat bots, which then gets used to train further chat bots. Human made content is already becoming harder and harder to find on algorithm heavy websites like Reddit and facebooks suite of sites. The bots can easily outpace any algorithmic changes they might make to help deter them, but my fb using family members all constantly block those weird Jesus accounts and they still show up constantly

How’d you get my Cities Skylines save?

Oh thank God I’m not crazy

Funnily enough, the bot everyone identified as tik tok hasn’t hit me as far as I’m aware. It’s mostly been random LLM bots grabbing data to train.

I should specify - I have family of various, but typically quite low, technical skills and of various far distances apart that use the server. So it’s either walk them through getting the IP of every device they access with or driving up to about 8 hours away to do it myself.

I have family and friends that also access the sites contents, so that’s sadly not feasible without getting the IPs from dozens of different devices

Thankfully they haven’t bricked my modem yet, but it’s possibly worth looking into

My personal website that primarily functions as a front end to my home server has been getting BEAT by these stupid web scrapers. Every couple of days the server is unusable because some web scraper demanded every single possible page and crashed the damn thing

Same, but honestly for this joke it makes it funnier

I’m gonna second Zenni here. Even my grandmother who wears glasses so thick we’re trying to take her license away can order her lenses from them for like $30 with shipping

Well that’s truly fucking terrifying

You should point out in the text that they responded 15 days later, cause honestly that makes it was funnier

They’re going after the thousands of shell companies they’re using to get around prior sanctions

I see plenty of value in buying it and turning it into a gay cam site!

At least in a bar people have the excuse of being drunk

I live a mile from the nearest safe road to bike on. People regularly nearly hit me in my car. I’d be dead if I biked anywhere

That’s fantastic if your city offers busses! Or public transportation at all 😭

No one gives a shit about the CEO of telegram, your joke just wasn’t funny
