  • The problem is that it won’t stop people from using Google. Most people probably wouldn’t even notice aside from having to spend more time searching for local things, which incidentally will give Google more ad money.

    The average person probably doesn’t know that search engines other than Google or Bing (or maybe Yahoo if they’re old enough) even exist. As much as it worries me that most of Firefox’s revenue comes from having Google as the default search engine, regulating that practice might actually give other search engines a chance to be seen.



  • I haven’t checked back on it since I stopped using reddit (and I no longer use a surface pro) but there was a pretty active surface Linux community there as well with some good resources. For a lot of models you’ll need a USB keyboard/mouse to actually install the distro but once you can load the custom surface linux kernel things worked pretty well for me.














  • Not familiar with how piefed handles it specifically but aren’t posts/comments self-upvoted by default?

    You could probably figure it out pretty easily just by looking at a user’s posts, no?

    (This is unless piefed makes it so the main actor up votes their own posts, and the anonymous actor upvotes others’ posts, but then it would still be possible to do analysis on others’ comments to get a pretty accurate guess)
