Anon gets challenged.
  • Which plate was Barack Obama holding? Come on, be honest now.

  • Ecosia.org updates its Privacy Policy
  • Kagi uses its own crawler, right? But yeah, I expect DDG to follow Ecosia's lead.

  • Reddit forces personalized ads, starts X-like user payment program
  • Spez is really trying to turn Reddit into 9gag, huh?

  • Seems legit, Google knows what is best for me.
  • Isn't AdGuard just DNS?

    It isn't "just" DNS level blocking, no. They have an adblocker for browsers, too. uBlock is using their filters.

    other mobile browsers you don't have any at all

    Some have built-in adblockers (ex: Brave, DDG), others support extensions (ex: Safari, Orion).

  • Back from fishing!
  • Welcome back! Is it a good time to mention that before you left for your fishing trip, you forgot to push 1.11.2 to TestFlight? ๐Ÿ˜

  • Can someone please explain why not to use Brave browser ?
  • I don't care that you can disable it

    It's opt-in.

  • 4get โ€“ A metasearch engine
  • Contrary to SearX/SearXNG, you can't select more than one source for your search results. I honestly don't see the point in this case. Just use DDG, unless you don't want to use Yandex/Marginalia/wiby directly? The other sources included are DDG, Brave and Mojeek, but those already respect your privacy.

    No, Google's not in there, but then again so what? I've had to disable Google as a source for SearXNG because it was systematically returning garbage results.

    With 4get you can set a different source for your web searches, pics and news results, however. That's a good feature.

  • Anon has an Impactful experience
  • Nice quads. Very nice.

  • YouTube is going to remove ad controls for creators
  • Hardly any, even though Odysee has an option to auto upload whatever you're uploading to YT on their platform.

  • Infinity for Reddit is dead.
  • Weren't they switching to a subscription model? I know they pushed back the release of this new version but apparently Spez didn't feel like giving more free API access in the meantime. Or maybe the Infinity devs gave up on Reddit. Who knows.

  • Bloodbones' carving puzzle

    I feel like an idiot.

    > Studying the carving you deduce that the inscription around it reveals how to open the door. If you can work out the number hidden in the puzzle, turn to the paragraph with that number.

    > Remember what the tribesman told you: "Back two, forward two. Back two, forward two."

    I see the three arrows (top right of the skull, snake's tail & the golden piece at the bottom) but I can't for the life of me solve this. ::: spoiler I found the solution online but I still don't understand how it works. it's 275 ::: The most logical reading I can come up with is "RARA" which doesn't feel very Roman numeral-y (but Roman numerals might not even be needed.)

    So... would someone be kind enough to explain this puzzle to me?

    [BUG] When swiping left, a banner shows up to a newspaper app
  • Am I missing this option?

    It should be in Settings -> General.

    Edit: scratch that. I just checked the PWA and it doesn't offer this option, sorry :-/

    I'm also seeing ads that are hidden off-screen

    That's pretty weird, maybe make a post about it? I never saw anything like this personally.

  • [BUG] When swiping left, a banner shows up to a newspaper app
  • That's because you open your links "In App". Switch this off and you won't have that kind of banner anymore.

    This is a problem with the PWA. Basically, the last website opened in-app that may have suggested to install a native app via a banner will keep said banner in memory.

  • Which search engine should I use?
  • If SearXNG worked for you, why not use a more stable instance?

  • Anon deals with rejection
  • First greentext?

  • New Atari 2600 is coming in November
  • And Itโ€™s Got Wood

    Watch it being built exclusively out of plastic.

  • Is Crossover any good? Better than Lutris or PlayOnLinux?
  • I'm still not over Crossover's "cool and hip" rebranding.

  • 2FA for iOS
  • That's what I'm using. It works as expected and is multi-platforms so I'm happy with it.

  • Anon may have depression
  • You're getting old.
