I have no idea.

You sure about that? https://i.imgur.com/cfh6BiV.png lol

This is really cute lol

That may be, but I know my browsing history, even as I get older and older, and I am using StackOverflow hardly at all compared to ChatGPT which I am using almost a scary amount.

I know I am not the only developer, this is how things are going.

ChatGPT is a big, big part of it.

Also, you can have it talk like a catgirl maid, so I find that’s particularly helpful as well.

I bet Google searching in general has gone down too. It’s often times quicker to just ask ChatGPT for an answer, and usually you can tell when an answer is correct or not. It’s like the old days of manually searching on Google for StackOverflow questions and then finding answers, and then trying to determine which one will work.

I love how ShittyMorph will live on forever no matter what, even if it’s an entirely different website lol

I wouldn’t on a laptop at all FWIW, need my 24" 1080p monitor for that.

Sometimes changing just the user agent isn’t enough FWIW.

Even if Lemmy does fight it and doesn’t accept the fingerprinting bullshit, how many other websites are going to do that? We’re just a link aggregator at the end of the day, I feel like all of the most important parts of the Internet are no longer going to be open.

My old work laptop had an integrated cover, my new work laptop just doesn’t lol

this guy is doing exactly what he wants to do and their goal is to make money not to lose them.

How does this make him money exactly? lol

He is literally just killing off his website.

Both. Both is good.

If he keeps doing this people are just gonna switch to Mastodon lol

This is a depressing reality but I think it’s likely this will happen. It makes me so mad Google got as big as they did. Someone needs to tear the fuckers down.

Well, her name is one letter off of Cries after all.

That’s not entirely true. One of the lead developers of Lemmy almost blocked infinite scrolling being implemented before the other lead developer stepped in and approved it. This can absolutely happen with other features, other features can get blocked.

There’s nothing wrong with having additional optional features through an addon, especially when those features are optional and also don’t have to go through an approval process. That’s the power of addons.

I’m still waiting for a community-based project of passion like Reddit Enhancement Suite.

Lemmy Enhancement Suite when?! lol

When you’re a beginner, it’s both. The further you get into your career, it’s usually imposter syndrome. Then again the more you know, the more you realize you don’t know.

True, but we’re less than a year away from the next Ubuntu LTS which would have that fixed anyway I believe.
