I've been using Firefox on Android since it came out. I've had 0 issues.

And as far as I'm aware, the newest version of Android Firefox (previously called "preview" doesn't use an ounce of chrome, even for temporary browser pages

I mean, it's America. I figured the cheese was implied

It's grilled chicken, lettuce, and ranch in a tortilla.

I don't get it either

Firefox also has a mobile app with full extension support on Android, including uBlock origin

To my knowledge, DNS blockers not only miss a ton of ads, they also trigger several false positives.

A better solution is to switch to something not chromium like Firefox or whatever alternative the next Linux person to read this comment recommends

I had a friend like this in college. His name was AJ. That's it. Just the letters.

Everyone in the department spent ages trying to guess what it stood for. I managed to glance his ID when we got lunch together once. His name was just AJ. There weren't even periods marking it as an abbreviation.

Still haven't told anyone though

I was just discussing with a friend of mine how we're rapidly approaching the dead internet. At some point, many websites will likely just be chat bots talking to other chat bots, which then gets used to train further chat bots. Human made content is already becoming harder and harder to find on algorithm heavy websites like Reddit and facebooks suite of sites. The bots can easily outpace any algorithmic changes they might make to help deter them, but my fb using family members all constantly block those weird Jesus accounts and they still show up constantly

Funnily enough, the bot everyone identified as tik tok hasn't hit me as far as I'm aware. It's mostly been random LLM bots grabbing data to train.

I should specify - I have family of various, but typically quite low, technical skills and of various far distances apart that use the server. So it's either walk them through getting the IP of every device they access with or driving up to about 8 hours away to do it myself.

I have family and friends that also access the sites contents, so that's sadly not feasible without getting the IPs from dozens of different devices

Thankfully they haven't bricked my modem yet, but it's possibly worth looking into
