"Hey Fediverse,

This is Claromes, an open-source developer, and my latest tool is Social Switch: a browser extension that redirects Instagram and TikTok URLs to anonymous web viewers.

The extension features an option to enable or disable redirection.

And each social network has two web viewer options: Picuki and Imginn for Instagram, and UrleBird and Xaller for TikTok.

It's currently available only for Chrome, but the Firefox extension will be released soon.

You can find the source code on GitHub at github.com/claromes/socialswitch."

Good people ARE working on better privacy even with bad sites, we CAN use many things to bridge everything back to good as well as good sites directly and only ! 🌉

My Social Switch browser extension, tagged as "anti-big-tech" was added to the AlternativeTo website and I didn't even know... It was recent. Loved it!

@ent He can be fun and interesting a lot of the time, he just goes off the handle sometimes. He probably just needs to psychiatric meds to take the edge off TBH.

I'm about to migrate my custom domain away from using Google mail to Protonmail.

I've already added one domain, and it accepts mail from gmail correctly, so I'll assume that I managed to configure it correctly.

However, I'm now ready to move over the primary domain, which is on Google right now. Is there anything I should consider? Will everything just work, or are there issues caused by Google being asked to deliver emails to a domain that it believes it controls? (my plan was to change the DNS first, and once I confirm everything works, I'd disable the domain on the Google side).

The acquisition of a PICADE has me playing OUTRUN. This is a game that I remember from my youth with spectacular graphics. The graphics are, in fact, shit. It also has HGVs doing in excess of 180kph. I am questioning SEGA’s commitment to realism.

I think I’ve put my finger on what coming back to the UK feels like. If an actual nation state could be suffering from clinical depression, this is what it would look like: Everything is slowly going to shit; the country seems to see no future for itself; it’s making decision after decision that is self neglect bordering on self harm; quite possibly the most unpopular government to be removed by democratic vote rather than bloodshed is about to lose an election by a cataclysmic margin, and when the opposition, who are set to clean up, are asked what they’re going to do differently, the answer is a shrug followed by, “nothing”.

And people here more or less accept it, because boiling frogs and suchlike, but then you go elsewhere (no, America, not you, sit back down), and it’s like the colour returns to the world and you didn’t even realise it was missing.

This Italian #train route reads like a restaurant menu! Parma (ham), Regio Emilia (cheese), Modena (balsamico vinegar), Bologna (salami).. #travel #SEE #AMRO #InterRail 😋 plus they show weather forecast at every stop!! ☁️☀️⛅️

@foone Almost keyboard twins and for almost the same reason. I bought a cheap mechanical gamer keyboard as a stopgap till I got the one I actually wanted, and kept it around as the "just in case" keyboard. Then I was like...why not make it pretty!!! And then it became my office keyboard.

This keycap style makes me happy in a way that feels like an old memory being prodded. I'm not sure of exactly *what* memories are being prodded here. Maybe the dumb terminals at the library when I was a kid.
