Honestly, I think it’s massively significant. For a start off, that’s 20 million people, the population of Chile, in one quarter. That’s a lot of people regardless of how you slice it.

But more to the point, Meta services - Facebook especially - have reached a point of cultural impact where anyone who doesn’t have them can’t be talked into getting them anyway. Plus, they’re useful messaging services too, because everyone else uses them. Their popularity has become self-fulfilling. The idea of Meta losing more users than it’s gaining at all has been frankly unthinkable until recently.

I have a Fairphone 3, and it definitely does have a headphone jack (unless there are other versions of it that don’t)

Spotted dick

Is that true? I’m actually floored by the idea of trying to doxx the Wikipedia editors. That’s some of the most shameless anti-intellectualism and psychopathy I’ve ever heard of.

But to answer your question directly while I process that, yes, I think moving their location to Denmark or anywhere in Europe would be an absolute victory. The only thing that’s stopped me from donating to Wikipedia is the thought that it’d get taxed and Trump would pocket some of it. While financially, the US government may not lose much, it’s a massive reputational loss, and sets the stage for other companies to do the same.

I recently bought a Fairphone 3 and installed Ubuntu Touch onto it, ditching Android entirely! I spent about 3 days working on this and would strongly recommend buying one of the newer ones with Ubuntu Touch pre-installed, I’m incredibly happy with it, feel freer than ever, and Google’s however-much-money poorer for not having my data!

Hasn’t Telegram being Russian spyware been known for years now?

Vivaldi’s a good European web browser

Thanks for this. I started Linux with Ubuntu, just because being the most popular distro, I figured it would most likely to be compatible with everything. I was just about to make a post asking why the Linux community dunks on Ubuntu, but this graphic explains a lot

Casette Beasts, a Creature collecting (pokemon like) game, is by a UK studio, and Yooka Replaylee which is also British only released last year and I still think it’s the most slept-on game of 2025!

Direct messages and servers that are not age-restricted will continue to function normally

So in other words, if you only use Discord as a messaging app and for small servers between friends, this won’t affect you?

I honestly have no idea why Discord started trying to push itself as some normal social media like Facebook, and why people started treating it as such. Discord was a glorified telephone line with gifs and web links. I don’t need some manufactured sense of “community” among thousands of people who happen to watch the same YouTuber as me.
