What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
Rules
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. Use original link
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacks
Any kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.

Firefox + uBlock Origin
Kiwi browser + uBlock Origin on mobile
Every now and then I see the web how everyone else sees it. Jesus Christ.
Why not firefox for android?
Does Firefox allow extensions now in mobile?
(The answer is yes and no. Its must be an approved Firefox addon. Ublock is one of those, however all of the other scripts I use do not work in Firefox for Android. Kiwi still wins for me.)
I believe that is no longer true. I just checked and it is letting me install any of the extensions.
Not for my scripts, I tried it while writing the comment just to be sure. Didn't want to accidentally be wrong 😅
you can also have a custom extension list and put whatever on it. that's what I did before they opened it up as much as they have now.
That's fair.
I like to sync my history across devices. I sometimes open a link on my phone, leave it there and then pick it up on my computer via the account sync.
Its like looking at a welding arc without a mask. Instant pain and recoil
