Firefox loves me…

There are still lots of tracking parameters it doesn’t remove. It does not bypass redirects like
doubleclick.net/redirect?url=...
, either.I’d prefer if it worked with personal and community managed filters, like every good adblocker does now.
It’ll warn you before you go to shit tracking redirectors though.
The point is to bypass them, so it won’t go to
https://click-tracker.com/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Findex.php%23content%3Fpage%3Dwelcome%26say%3Dhello&clickID=a68bd9003
buthttps://example.com/index.php#content?page=welcome&say=hello
already.
I didn’t know about that! I always use Ctrl+C of course. I’ll look out for this next time
there’s even an extension to do that automatically, clearurls if i recall correctly
and checks it still works
I guess I really love everyone because I’ve just always done that
Me too, but just to screw over Amazon’s social graph making.
Sometimes I throw garbage in there just got fun ☺️
It’s less love and more spite.

Firefox: Rt-click - “Copy without Site Tracking”
Firefox best browser
I guess I love more people than I care to acknowledge
Oh no I think I’m sending some people the wrong kind of message… I didn’t mean to…
it’s ok. i figured we could never be more than friends
And send bank account and phone numbers in a separate message for easy copying
Full format addresses so they automatically turn into links
No: 123 Main St Yes: 123 Main St, Burgerville, TN 70302
Some messengers like Telegram allow you to copy preformatted blocks in one click, so you can just write “here’s the number
number
” and it will still be easy to copyWhy would you even be sending them together?
Me and the homies compare paystubs and direct deposits to make sure we aren’t victims of wage theft 💪
I assumed it was something like here’s *'s number: 1245689 in one message making it hard just to copy the phone number on some mobile messengers.
Yeah that’s exactly what I was meaning
Oh yeah that makes more sense xD I was wondering for wait to long why someone would send their phone number and bank account in the same message
I actually remove stuff like the “feature=sharing” nonsense from the end of youtube memes I share pretty regularly
Screenshotting a post from another fediverse app seems a bit crazy. As an alternative, this post is available natively in lemmy, as text and from the original author (so you can reply to him if you’d like).
I can’t give a universal link to a post obviously, but if you’re on lemmy.world, it’s here: https://lemmy.world/post/11631169, and if you’re not, it’s available on the !tails@lemmon.website community.
…seems a bit crazy. …

Tee-hee :) Point taken though!
No way to cross post is there?
Also would be neat to have a blended account feature -
infosec.exchange
is defederated fromsh.itjust.works
even though we’re OK I swear. Might be time to raise that discussion again.Anyway only seeing this because of the repost. And for the visually paired (easy of seeing?) (not blind?), screenshots of text can sometimes have a je ne sais quoi. A bit of text fitting just so in the right font, maybe a light background breaking the monotony of one’s dark mode…
Screenshots, surprisingly resilient in $current_year. One day Lemmy could autotranscribe screenshots and include original post date, platform, author… maybe how deep fried it was too.
Yeah, cross-posts would be a new post from me, rather than the original from e.g. George Takei, which isn’t ideal.
I hadn’t really thought about defederation between servers running both Mastodon and Lemmy. I guess that post wouldn’t show up on sh.itjust.works (I’ll have a look if anyone subscribes from there)
Here’s the most recent post I (on justworks) see:
Defederation can hurt
Hmmm, that’s not defederation though. The community’s outbox has the 20 most recent posts in, and that cat gif is currently at number 20. The only way those earlier posts can be there are if someone brought though the community a day or so ago and then didn’t subscribe. If anyone ever does subscribe, I can manually send the rest (and can see if the infosec one fails)
Hmm, I don’t understand.
Lemmy World & Midwest Social show the community and the latest post. JustWorks doesn’t show the latest post. Infosec doesn’t show the community. Lemmon doesn’t seem to have an actual homepage, but looks a bit like an RSS feed; the Tails community there 403s.
Defed Investigator can’t find Lemmon but reports on some communities which are federated with it. Infosec is reportedly federated but doesn’t show the community.
1.) what’s an outbox (on Lemmy)?
2.) “if someone brought though the community a day or so ago and then didn’t subscribe.”?
3.) “manually send the rest”? Also you’re the Lemmon admin?
Honestly I feel like a screenshot of a toot is better than just seeing a Lemmy-formated toot.
Maybe a cross-post feature which generates what the screenshot effectively shows but formatted in html to match mastodon formatting with functioning links that’s hosted on the instance the Lemmy community is in to avoid federation issues?
Edit to add: on the other hand I regularly forward the screenshots to friends on other platforms, so I’d either screenshot the thing created to stop screenshots or need a share/download button to create a image because I know my friends ain’t interested in clicking a wierd fediverse link to view a 2 sentence joke they may or may not find funny
We’re stuck with the HTML formatting that lemmy provides us, unfortunately. It’s not just about an image vs. text though - it’s also about being from the original author. OP for this post is getting plenty of replies, but I’ve no idea if it’s an issue they care about, or just something they saw and found passingly amusing.
As for sending on, a screenshot to friends on non-ActivityPub platforms is more reasonable (although being text means you could just copy/paste it, and then include any friends with vision impairments too).
But yeah, there’s lots of pro’s to a screenshot that I don’t have an argument against (I posted in this thread, but it’s not like I’m going to show up everytime someone yoinks something from Mastodon)
Oh yeah I was just imagining out loud what a better way of handling cross-posted content across federated platforms could look like
even on the federated web, you can’t escape the screenshots
The referent of a link can be changed or deleted. A screenshot cannot.
Let’s just be thankful they actually took a screenshot and didn’t take a picture of the screen with their phone.
It’s a step up as long as it stays that way and reposters know they can save the screenshot instead of screenshotting the screenshot.
Neither of those links load in Voyager, so I think a screenshot is great.
What’s happened for you there isn’t a problem for screenshots to really fix - it’s whatever frontend you’re using not giving lemmy’s backend enough time to fetch a remote community. This happens loads - I even made a little video about it the other day: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/13703060
When you clicked on !tails@lemmon.website, it did actually go through to dbzer0, and Voyager has no trouble with the community once it’s though. A little ironically perhaps, but here’s a hastily combined screenshot showing it at dbzer0 and on Voyager:
edit: and the link to the post of course: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/13850191
I feel so seen ❤️
see a few that just paste the google news links. we can never be friends
my big sister does this. i love her so much

I change it by adding profanities
Will the links still work? This gives me ideas
They’re just for marketing stats, to track where people are visiting from. I’ve had to add them in the past (for work) to differentiate marketing campaigns, links in emails vs SMS, etc
Look up “UTM parameters” for a full breakdown of how these are used.
This is my love language
