Yeah I’m almost exclusively buying indie now. The enshittification of a lot of the games released by the big studios has also gone a long way in helping me not want them!
I've had exactly two issues that have actually affected me.
1: The screen sharing didn't show up in Zoom, when watching a lecture.
2: When looking for an apartment to rent, the integrated map on the site didn't show. Which was very unpractical as I couldn't see the location of the flat I was looking at.
Haven't had any other problems, so I wouldn't call this a slew of problems either. Both problems were solved by enabling WebGL and refreshing.
WebGL is a strong fingerprinting vector, and as it is not needed for 95% of the webpages I use, I'd rather keep it off. And since the last 5% is a bit annoying at times, I wanted to hear if there are good solutions out there.
It's a joke about how the safety system on the car works. From another comment in this thread:
Based on what it didn't cut through, his finger should have been safe but apparently Tesla designed the thing to keep increasing the pressure if it detects resistance each time until it can close, which is absolutely baffling. I don't know of any other safety feature that turns down the safety the more it activates. The fact that it reacts to the exact same conditions differently each time should, in itself, be deeply concerning for any safety feature.
All I need as a student.
I have a few open source projects that I aim to support monthly, as soon as I get my first paycheck after I'm finished with my degree, might count those as subscriptions then.
3: Add a filter that labels all Mail incoming to Gmail with a Gmail label.
4: Whenever you feel like it, go to some of your Gmail labeled mail and change the registered mail to Proton etc.
I'd still recommend buying your own domain though, it took me less than 15 mins switching completely from Skiff to Proton, and I didn't have to reregister anything. Only when you have a costum domain you're truly serviceprovider-independent.
