I have just made a Short video on how to change the theme. It is transcoding as I type this.
@zleap I mean, its a pretty legit concern :)

This is what I like about fedi, a concern / question is raised, and rather than trying to fob people off, you get a response such as this, that explains the issue and suggest possible solutions.
If you want to be a moron and imply what I said means something other than I said, go for it... talking to you is a waste of my time.. argue whatever nonsense youd like

Good question. This comes from the instance tracker feature added to some of our themes (its how we add a banner to posts that show what instance users are from using unique colors and icons for each instance).
We specifically provide theme versions for most of our themes that are o-ticker versions that wont fetch this css or add the tickers. This is specifically for people who dont want to use the tickers third-party css.
So if anyone is worried about this I'd suggest users simply switch to one of the no-ticker themes.

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are -- our equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find and not to yield." -- Ulysses
I decided that these merry days leading to Christmas, when we're infused with positive sentiments and hope for humanity, are as good as any other to read… #Hitler's _Mein Kampf_.

Not really! In fact, I'm a bit embarrassed to leave my e-book reader lying around so that others can see what I'm reading… But my Theory of Reading actually supports and encourages reading _anything_ that has been very influential (for good or for ill) regardless of its literary merits, its veracity, its applicability today, or its moral qualities.
Not to put them all necessarily in the same bucket, but I have read _The Iliad_, _The Odyssey_, _The Communist Manifesto_ and _Atlas Shrugged_ — and I would read _The Bible_ and _The Quran_ too: all of them #books that are ( in a way or another) wrong, false, corrosive, harmful, evil, racist, sexist, pro-violence, or pro-war — or even all of those things at the same time!
Granted: #MeinKampf may well be the wrongest among the wrong books… And in a way, that contributes to making it “useful” as a reading.

@M0YNG Thats kinda the opposite of a windfall :)
You say that, but I've been eating veggies, fruit, and beans for a month straight now and I would rather die than take another shit :)
Healthy heart, for what? To live longer? On fruit and veggies? Can you even call that being alive? If I were on a diet of fruit and veggies the last thing I'd want is to live longer :)
