YouTube has rapidly censoring more and more by way of demonetization and language policing.

You're conflating two different somethings. Anti-AI mob is not the same as AI. Being against mob mentality doesn't make you inherently pro AI.

It's possible to be pro or anti mob mentality and AI in various different combinations.

You're assuming his apologia is not disingenuous. The notes he added in the commit messages and the extent to which he blocked users who were indirectly implicated in his accusations don't line up with his explanations.

There's also the fact that much of it is caught under a very broad net of "promoting violence" without any examples provided of what constitutes such a thing. He used that exact explanation to justify banning blahaj.zone, where he said that some users did so and the admins did not act on it, which prompted him to blacklist the entire instance and the admins specifically.

This isn't even getting into the intentional inaccuracies about the nature of his "Toxic Mode", or his entire rant on db0 which is not only dishonest and weirdly personal, but also straight up lying about what happened and why. There's zero way to say that exposing his blacklist is "going Karen" like he did, and it's a straight lie to say that nobody had a problem with his blacklisting until db0 complained when the situation is that db0 made the existence of the blocklist known.

The philosophy of federation is that such whims should be openly handled on the federation level, not in a secret blacklist of a front end that was openly available to all.

Considering the phone is out of reach, it's probably to listen to a podcast or music. Shower radios have existed for decades after all.

Morphe is the way to go these days, the maintainer of Revanced pissed off its main contributors and they went over and made Morphe. Revanced's significant recent updates have been to catch up with Morphe.

It also supports sourcing patches from other contributors directly so there are patches for apps like Chess.com and TikTok on Morphe that aren't available on Revanced.

Except Mullvad put out that statement in question as a defense. Their response is enough to turn people off the company.

Oh yes, that's good. Didn't even think about that. I'm so used to seeing -rf that I didn't even register what I was looking at for a second.

Luckily it's France, not Quebec. France is much more amenable to providing documentation in other languages.

You had 30 seconds? So much for a quick wit.

That requires telling a new joke, not just rehashing the same one with a materially insignificant difference.
