Default configs are very great, but to be fair, a lot of people who use hyprland would be hardcore ricers, so I can see why deprecations would hit most advanced users quite hard.

I blame nvidia too, this used to happen to me, but hasn’t so far since using hyprland, etc (maybe because hypridle isn’t so complicated when setup to use the basic commands for turning off screens/sleeping).

(I actually do sleep my machine)

Dumbest thing in software imo, is when I see software that is obviously worthy of being out of v0 (beta, alpha, etc), stay in v0.

Though since it still is v0, I guess we can’t expect much.

Not sure why it is, maybe there is a good reason, but the software functions well enough for a stable release, though at the same time, this is a very small scale operation with great ambitions and a big userbase. If you api needs to be updated, it’s obviously much easier to just push a breaking change than to maintain a migration period.

There’s a lot of nuance, but I’d like more software to just enter v1 when it works as intended and then breaking changes can increment the major version rather than staying in v0 which is harder to tell when a breaking change happens.

p.s. so far config changes in hyprland have only been a 5 min fix so i haven’t experienced this fuss yet, maybe soon!

It’d be nice if that header was default for all users, unfortunately it can (and has, probably) end up being just another data point for uniquely identifying you.

Probably will never be default since 99% people use Chrome, and we know who owns that…

Extensions seem the only way without making your traffic more unique.

Maybe, but In some cases (someordinarygamers), I don’t think so (because of how he brings it up).

I cringe hard every time a “tech/privacy” youtuber says they use Brave.

They said “runs again”

I hope that’s a joke; the elderly shouldn’t be in charge.

SmartTube’s developer told me that the computer used to create the APKs for the project’s official GitHub page was compromised by malware. As a result, some official SmartTube releases were unintentionally released with malware.

The news post going around: https://www.aftvnews.com/smarttubes-official-apk-was-compromised-with-malware-what-you-should-do-if-you-use-it/

The new versions should be clean however:

Users who may have installed the malware-infected versions of the app are recommended to reset their devices and take additional steps to review their YouTube and Google account information. https://www.androidauthority.com/smarttube-malware-fix-3620773/

If you were logged into anything, probably best to change your password to be safe (and delete all sessions to unauth every device)!

Next time you see an alert like that, definitely research it before trying to work around it and install possibly infected software (i know there possibly wasn’t any news when the alert went up, but i’d way a day then look it up again before continuing).

That’s because THEY FOUND MALWARE IN A RELEASE i saw a post about it yesterday. Think the devs have fixed it now but BEWARE if you had sensitive info on your device.
