Also I disabled send a do not track signal as it is used for fingerprinting

Doesn't this only make sense if it is off by default on that browser? I assume if it is on by default, most people will just keep it on, thus making users of that browser that turn it off stand out more. No?

I was talking about there being no option to whitelist some websites to keep their cookies, and as you can see it is not present there, while the desktop versione has it

Sadly that is not an option for firefox on android yet (while it is on desktop), the only choises you are left with are:

  • Use ff focus that completely resets the browser deleting every cookie in the process
  • Use normal ff and:
  1. Just accept that you have to deal with cookies and care to carefully select Reject on every banner
  2. Turn on delete data on "exit button press" (which sadly deletes everything again, with no possibility to whitelist some websites).

That said, i believe Firefox should have (even on android) their "total cookie protection" thing which puts them in separate containers for each domain, so you are somewhat protected by cookie cross-tracking, but i would still prefer to delete most of them at close.

Teoretically speaking, asking for a friend who's doing research, how would you access such a service? :)

Compare it to the steam deck (a bit more pricey, but can also run emulators). If you want a more polished nintendo-like experience however, the switch is probably not a bad purchase (consider you have to add to it the hefty cost nintendo puts on their games and the fee for playing online, if you want to).

So you basically slowly build your own reddit-like bubble by removing what you don't want to see (or disagree with)... Doesn't it go intuitively against the idea of "federating" with other communities?

Of course, the difference with lemmy is that you become your own censor, while on reddit the admins have control over everything; on paper this definitely sounds the more "freedom option" but I am afraid it's just going to lead to compartmentization in bubbles that don't talk to each others at all. And I'm not talking about spam or outright offensive idiots, I am talking about opinions you don't like.

Yeah if incivility is in the rules it should be enforced for everyone.

Sorry to ask but since you keep using that word, what does tankie has to do with putin? Wasn't it something about the soviet union?

What you are saying might be true as well but given your uncivil comment history i am pretty sure a mod "being tankie" is not the reason you are silenced in those communities...

Yeah right? Wasn't it ukranians that did that?
