Even worse for us that live outside the US. Nothing but US politics every time we scroll. Well, that and Linux stuff.

There's cookie lists in uBlock Origin. Just enable them.

Wonder if it's a region thing. Not there for me either (UK).

Been a while but I think so. The sausage rolls taste exactly the same. I guess because they are actually Greggs sausage rolls...

uBlock Origin has two cookie filters that are disabled by default. I enabled that and ditched the consent-o-matic extension

They should update the Chrome extension to tell people to download Firefox instead

Not really helping you here. But when I started using Google Photos, I still manually downloaded files from my phone to local storage. I did this mainly to ensure I have the original copies of my photos and not some compressed image. Turns out that was a wise move as exporting photos from Google is a pretty damned awful experience.

That's the annoying thing here. Everyone, particularly Lemmy where everyone runs Linux and FOSS, thinks this is a Microsoft/Windows issue. It's not, it's a Crowdstrike issue.
