They said, "You can run, but you can't hide!"

I don't speak German. I just have Google Translate installed on my phone and just selected the text and hit "translate".

... What German posts?

Because, out of all the platforms available (Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Reddit, Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.), Twitter is the place where the news will spread the fastest.

This might be one of Twitter's automatic security features I'd heard about a while back (prior to the Musk takeover). Supposedly, Twitter stops accounts from getting a large amount of followers in a short amount of time to try to limit botting. Sometimes, rarely, it can trigger when a large amount of real people follow a real account.

I think I heard about it when I ran into the issue myself, but I don't remember what account it was that I was trying to follow.

*Taxes with fewer steps.

No need for all that pesky tax paperwork, save for end-of-year tax filings.

There was a time when I... well, I didn't really follow him all that much, but I didn't have any reason to dislike him. That changed when he tried to back out of buying Twitter.

At the time I was unhappy with how Twitter was handling its problems. I was hoping things would improve with new ownership. When he backed out, I started to see what kind of person he really was: someone who thought he could do basically whatever he wanted.

By the time he actually did but Twitter, I was glad the government actually stuck it to him and made him go through with the purchase. And I'm glad Twitter is failing because of his own blunders. I'm hoping it eventually dies (I'm already trying to move on to other platforms like Bluesky or Mastodon. Just waiting for people I follow to move to them.) and that he's still left with money he hasn't made back after that purchase.

Others replying to the comment included Blu-ray, so I did, too. I assumed it was a given to include that since others had already brought it up.

At the very least, it's still (generally speaking) higher quality video than streaming. It's not uncompressed, though.

Every now and then, I'm reminded that Skype is somehow still alive.

At that point, I would've just googled the phone number.

I thought extensions don't run in incognito mode?

They don't. Unless you check the box that allows them to. And I'm sure Google has already checked that box by default.

Are you talking about the "apps" that Chrome used to support? They removed the feature years ago to reduce bloat and RAM usage or something like that.

Before they removed the feature, I had actually figured out how to create my own "apps" that'd simply load webpages I visited often at the time, like Twitch.
