Javascript is overrated and more websites should be static with minimal interactive bs. But that's just me, a cynical user tired of intrusive pop-ups and predatory advertising scripts.

It's like having a discord 'server'. Nothing gets actually talked about, noteworthy stuffs are hidden beyond layers of clunky mobile UI and everyone's phone numbers are leaked in the process.

Piggybacking on this, I tried Fitgirl repack releases and some of them hang up during install when executed through wine or proton. I resorted to installing them from a windows boot and then execute them from linux, but does anyone have a better solution?

Whether it's text or video, there will always be a "Let me tell you about that time when I was on vacation" before the damn pot roast recipe or "Subscribe and play Raid Shadow Legends" followed by a 15 min padding.

Recycled parts? That's simply being too dumb to be alive on this world. And I thought putting a wireless xbox controller for navigating the damn sub was dumb enough.

Like any other web services, Google can see the public ip your personal invidious instance is using to access youtube servers. The local 192.168.x.x ip are for internal access.

This is why I always save contents as a new file instead of overwriting the original one when I'm using a machine that isn't mine. I've been burned so many times by flimsy newline characters, proper unicode support, legacy encoding and many other stuff you assume it should be already in place.
