Oh my ahura mazda, people like my joke and I have accidentally ten times as much followers as before, and stars enough to fabricate a moderately sized nebula.
Now how to tell them that I am boring and not funny? 🙃

A switch has silently been flipped in millions of instances of Google Chrome: those browsers will begin sorting their users into groups based on behavior, then sharing group labels with third-party trackers and advertisers around the web. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/03/google-testing-its-controversial-new-ad-targeting-tech-millions-browsers-heres

There is a ton of amazing free software projects I use every day and for today's "I love free software"-day I would want to thank all of their contributors, but that's close to impossible. So I'm just mentioning a few projects I use and hope that my words somehow reach as many free software contributors as possible :)

Version 4.1 is live on cryptpad.fr !
This release introduces a ✨dark theme✨ . You will see this if your operating system is set to dark, or you can switch manually in Settings.
The release notes will be available on GitHub shortly.
@jens re #interpeer : why don't include at least an oneliner about what channeler is? TBD isn't quite descriptive. Other components could use a "what this does" as well.

Have you ever wondered why a popular account on the Fediverse seems to have few followers, and maybe even no posts? It's probably because its information is out of date on your instance.
✅ Clicking on a user's profile picture opens its public profile page on its home instance, which carries the true number of followers, the complete set of posts etc.
Sometimes the differences can be quite striking, see the attached images for an example.
