ManifestV3 is unpopular and probably evil, but I agree that is not Antitrust. It's simply modifying their own product to maximize profit of another product. It is very easy for consumers to switch to a competitor (Safari/Firefox) if they don't like it.
It would be antitrust if they made sure that you have to use Chrome for sites to work
I think the new Web Environment Integrity (WEI) proposal gets much closer to Antitrust behavior. From what I've seen, it could make it very easy for sites to refuse traffic from non-trusted applications, and who decides who is trusted or not is still under development.
That headline literally says they're not doing that. It was a well-meaning initiative that they rightfully backed down on when called out.
I am one of the first to typically assume malice or profit when a company does something, but I really think Apple was trying to do something good for society in a way that is otherwise as privacy-focused as they could be. They just didn't stop to consider whether or not they should be proactive in legal matters, and when they got reamed by privacy advocates, they decided not to go forward with it.
I store them in Dropbox and symlink them to their correct location.
I do that instead of the standard Git method because it means I don't have to worry about remembering to sync each computer. Everything syncs immediately.
Which is extremely frustrating when you're new to Lemmy and trying to learn how it works, or how to do certain things. Most of the results are for Lemmy the musician.
OCD or not, that would drive me nuts. The main point of a standard pattern is so you know the number at a glance. You don't have to count all the pips, you just have to see what pattern they're in.
It's an internal message to employees of Reddit. As someone who's been in the corporate world for a long time, I've seen some variation of this message many times. Economic downturn, bad press, low sales, losing expected incoming cash... there are a lot of catalysts for this style of message.
Most messages we're seeing are from users, who want Reddit to crash and burn or just do what the masses want, or whatever. But, on the other side is a bunch of people who may be worried about how this whole thing will affect their livelihood. Even if Reddit stays up another 20 years and not everyone loses their job, what scale will it be? Will Reddit fire some amount of their workforce to make up for lost income? Will I be someone who gets fired?
These are the thoughts that this message is intended to address.

Because it’s a fucking joke?
