My family insists on using Facebook messenger, so I only have an account for that.

Big part of the internet is going through Cloudflare these days, so it tracks you as you browse, and does something clever to figure out if you’re a robot. Google can do the same, they’ll have a cookie on you. If they’re not sure they’ll show you one of those challenges.

Got Disney plus subscription for free through some other stuff I need to have, but it’s the ad supported standard plan, you pay and still get loads of ads. Even with the subscription I just download stuff for my Jellyfin.

Self hosted FreshRSS is what I’ve been using, it’s very good.

I use DDG like others have mentioned, but I also like Perplexity, because it’s not a chat like ChatGPT, it just answers queries without trying too hard to chat to you.

They write so many articles on Twitter it will never die

If that’s annoying have the people writing this article looked at their own website, ads on ads (and ads placeholders with adblock) with cookie and email subscription popups and SEO bullshit.

And they just bought Hotel Chocolat, one of my favourite places to go for fancy chocolate, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-67436228.

So now that place will go to shit, I’ll have to find another one.
