Well, would you say Boost blocks images by default? Because Thunder (the front end I'm using) doesn't.

Yeah, that's what I'm concerned about. Getting random CSAM, or Gore, or some f'ed up stuff like that. Images should at the bare minimum come censored before clicking.

I didn't even have the option to click any placeholders, it just automatically loads the whole thing (but maybe its just the front-end I'm using).

What's up with everyone in this comment section shilling registrars with abysmal customer reviews? Lol. The only one that even has remotely good reviews is Mythic Beasts.

Anyways, I'd like to recommend IONOS (German). Their service has been flawless so far, and I haven't seen any reports of bad customer either.

Those reviews don't look very inspiring, not gonna lie. Also, their About page says their service is run from Costa Rica?

Ultimately I don't think these "privacy-first" domain registrars are a great choice, which is a rare thing to say about an internet service.

But you're dealing with private property here and being ICANN-accredited (which Njalla isn't) is kind of important if you're gonna do something serious with your domain. You want those protections that excessive privacy won't permit having.

The other one is a manual labourer or simple job worker bubble - I see a lot more diversity there, many people falling for different kinds of propaganda, superstition, fearmongering. Some of those are already hardcore nazis, some of them are sympathizers in some ways.

That's fine, I'm not gonna disagree with this, however I don't see these people as a large, organized group that is bigger than the anti-Israel, anti-Russia status quo.

They usually get informations from the TV, newspapers and friends, partially online as well - mostly Facebook.

From TV, really? Maybe if you're talking about Fox News... That sort of TV doesn't exist in most European countries, Thankfully.

From the internet though yeah, i agree. But again, these aren't apolitical people at that point, if they are getting so involved in political discussions like that.

I'm talking the West that had Mussolini hanged upside down out on the public square once fascism was put to practice. The same west that had Hitler and his peers put a bullet to their heads, once their ideology was implemented.

Yes, these ideologies were invented in the West, doesn't mean we accept them wholeheartedly once they are implemented.

Open class war. They know, sadly most workers don't seem to see it.

Right? I think Lemmy is way more conducive to conversations than Reddit.

My country has daylight savings and I still went to school at night, so that point is kinda mute.

Welcome, there hasn't been a better time than now in a while.

Elom Musk has been pressuring Reddit's CEO to force mods to accept links to hia fascist platform.

So I can only see Reddit become worse as the years go on.

I think you're also in a bubble though.

Which is why I'm talking about people who aren't terminally online degenerates like us.

People who are largely apolitical, like my friends and family, none of them support Russia.

I even went to a few protests in front of the Russian embassy. Would you be surprised to know that there were exactly zero protests in Russia's defense in my country?

I respectfully disagree. Cultural backgrounds also play a role and Russia and China have never known democracy.

Fascism in practice (not as a demented dream) is a harder sell in the West although we're not immune to it and we should 100℅ remain vigilant and fight its grown at all costs.

Water is, unironically, my favourite drink on this earth.

Yeah office jobs in my country are basically all posted there, especially if you want to work for an international company.

But then how could they make ungodly amounts of money while looking down on the peasantry?

searxng which is a decentralized search engine similar to the fediverse, it lets you customize search providers and i have it set to show ddg, presearch, qwant, and startpage

How do you set it up like so? I couldn't find such settings.

Anyways, Consider whether using that is the best thing we can be doing for the EU... Using anonymous search engines instead of a local one that will at least profit some and pay taxes here.

Probably nothing would happen to you. They might correlate your IP address and ban you, but that's likely it.

I mean, that's probably the worst thing that can happen to your email, lol. Consider how much your online life depends on access to your email.

I kinda get it for people who want to compartmentalise their email.

I personally have 1 email I only use for banks and other important logins, and then a second one that is a bit more general use.

Do you think people are buying it, though?

I've never seen so much cynicism against all things controlled media as I see today.

They control the final product, so the answer is yes
