I agree it's too much, but on the other hand the potential user base for the app is much lower than previously with Reddit. So I can understand it, even if I don't like it.

The Boost dev is also working on an app. https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

The developer, TalkLittle, has made another app but it's for Tildes instead of Lemmy or Kbin. It's invite -only so quite low population even compared to Fediverse instances. Plus iirc it's only text. No images, no video, etc

Ultimately they'll spin it as this guy being framed, etc and his only chance of staying alive being fleeing to a non-extradition country. They were already implying he was disappeared, so that's not a stretch.

IIRC they're a totally private company and in one interview about the graphics card exit it honestly sounds like the founders/owners would rather go out of business than tarnish their reputation even by selling to someone else. So yeah it's possible they're just winding the whole thing down.

Yeah that's just pre-registration -- so you'll get it automatically when the first release drops.

It gets slightly annoying when you want to use a non-recommended extension (like RES). You either need to swap to Nightly or something like Fennec (on F-Droid). Then you must curate your own collection of extensions on addons.mozilla.org and finally set your browser to pull from that collection.

If this is available it definitely needs to be an option, and I think it probably needs to not be the default. I know I like to know which instances I'm interacting with, and I think it makes sense because that's part of the point of the Fediverse.

extreme far right buffoonery

Like the title said, it basically started off with Nazism. No devolution of discussion required.

I noticed the YouTube Addon for Kodi has started throwing errors about age restricted videos not being available outside of official YouTube apps or the site itself.

The movie thing is also quite an apt example. It is totally legal for a child to see an R-rated movie with their parent. R rated movies are allowed to have nudity, simulated sex scenes, etc etc etc. Much more inappropriate for a child than being read an age-approriate story by a drag queen or seeing someone in drag dancing and singing on stage. But this law about drag performance makes no exceptions for parental responsibility. A parent could conceivably be convicted of a misdemeanor for taking their child to a family friendly drag show.

This is not actually about pornographic content. Florida already had laws to protect from actually obscene material.

Drag queen story time and drag acts that do not contain nudity are not pornographic.
