Oh yeah I used both of those.

Reddit enhancement suite would do manual, single user tagging and the Masstagger browser add on would do… well, mass tagging.

I used it to show me when people I interacted with made more than 50 posts/comments in places like r/conservative or r/thedonald. It would also link you to the comments so you could see what they were saying there.

I found it helpful because there were times when I found people undermining concepts like cultural pluralism and participated in those subs. I knew where they were coming from and what they were trying to convince readers of (nothing good).

Several times it helped me effectively argue against white supremacists.

As long as comments are public, which I think is the point of sites like Reddit, lemmy, and kbin, those types of plugins and info will be available.

I don’t understand the concern though. I always assumed my votes, comments, or even PMs here were readable by at least the admins of the instance I’m a member of. The fact that votes and comments are public doesn’t seem to matter from a security or privacy standpoint.

I assumed as much seeing as it’s a public site ran by many different entities.

Similarly, I think Google can read my gmails.

capital, to privacyguides in Where to store OTP tokens

I throw them all in Bitwarden which is protected with a long, unique password and a yubikey.

capital, (edited ) to privacyguides in What do you use for cloud storage and why?

Primarily on site with NextCloud for getting to my important documents via mobile.

Backups are going to Wasabi via restic but if you want to do something a little more “live”, rclone mount with Wasabi also works well, even on Windows.

As always, I suggest encrypting before putting it anywhere but your own devices.

capital, to piracy in Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this?

Windows Defender has been really good. I haven’t had a 3rd party AV installed for nearly 10 years.

this one because the Don’t Fuck With Paste plugin didn’t catch it for some reason.

Plus some others that are specific to some torrent trackers I’m on.

It “clicks” on all ads while still blocking them from my view.

It’s not enough IMO to just block. I also want to poison their data about me by clicking on everything they attempt to show me.

capital, to asklemmy in hey - trying to switch from Chrome to Firefox, what are your recommended extensions and/or quality of life addins, etc?

My list:

  • AdNauseam
  • Bitwarden
  • Don’t fuck with paste
  • Ecosia
  • Fakespot
  • Firefox Multi-Account Containers
  • Greasemonkey
  • Redirect AMP to HTML
  • TrackMeNot
  • User-Agent Switcher and Manager
  • Wayback Machine

And now I have a special profile just for Youtube so I can run uBlock Origin to shut Google up about my adblocker.

Edit: Also, if you like dark themes, check out Dracula.

capital, to privacyguides in Everybody is supporting Firefox, but no one wants to use it. Because it is destroying itself.

The fuck are you on about?

I use it at home and at work and for what it’s worth, I’m in the tech industry.

I don’t use it in mobile so I can’t speak to that but I doubt what you’re saying frankly.

Been wondering why people just upload with “image”.

Mine was so bad I had to get my wife to put my socks and shoes on for me for a few weeks. I was only 30 at the time…

A friend got me this book and taking its advice was the best thing for me.

Chiro didn’t do shit for me but physical therapy (this book) did. Now I work out regularly to include straight leg deadlifts and my back feels great. Still working on flexibility but that has also improved.

capital, to privacyguides in Let's decentralize the web together.

What kind of privacy do you expect when the goal is to post something on a public forum?

capital, to privacyguides in Cars are a 'privacy nightmare on wheels'. Here’s how they get away with collecting and sharing your data
  1. What part do I need to disconnect to stop the transmission of this data?
  2. Would #1 cause my car to have any issues in it’s day to day operations?
