Firefox Focus is also a lovely little mobile browser for random queries and such. It's effectively always in private browsing mode; anytime you close it, it clears its cache.

I definitely use it more often than "regular" Firefox on mobile. I only really use regular Firefox if I need some sort of persistence or login.

Are you trying to build up a giga shit, so you can clog your nemesis's toilet?

I mean, if the quality of content on the site currently is any indication of how things will look like going forward, I think maybe ditching reddit will be easier than I thought. it's wayyyyyyy more reactionary than usual, though I think there's some 4chan-originated pot-stirring going on. still though, it's not a pleasant place to be right now.

In my experience, it doesn't actually delete everything. You might need to make multiple passes to get the really old stuff. My account is VERY old though (almost 18 years. I was an early adopter)

Yeah, this is just clickbait.

they learned nothing from why they got so popular in the first place (cough digg v4 cough) and it shows.

agreed. in the case of AI art, there are some legitimate artists out there (Rob Sheridan comes to mind) who are making wonderful use of AI image generation tools and incorporating it into their artwork and it's SO cool.

it's a shame that so far the loudest people touting AI are the annoying "bro buy my latest shitcoin" techbros.

Fingers crossed that the rapid decline of "mainstream" social media, news, forum sites leads to more widespread adoption of the fediverse. The internet used to be so good before we were all under the Boot...

anyway, hi y'all. I'd say I'm happy to be here, but I'm not... I'm just so disheartened at what our internet has become. BUT - I am hopeful. I think we're experiencing growing pains as a society and this is but one side effect of that; I truly believe the future is on our side, here.

either that, or we all return to monke and THAT is how we free ourselves of the collective brain rot that is web2.0 and beyond. :)

anyway, cheers to a Good Internet. may it still be possible. <3
