2025 starter kit. Although manifest v3 will fuck things up in a June, at least for Chromium users (minus Brave).

EDIT: Regarding paywalls, I used to use https://github.com/Angeloyo/PaywallHub but it has closed down due to (big surprise) legal threats. I guess https://www.removepaywall.com/ is the better alternative.
Privacy Badger is also nice to have
it does a good job on blocking as much trackers as it can
Cool stuff, but I still get a lot of consent pages even after using consent-o-matric tho
Yeah, it’s not perfect, but it does handle over 75% of the ones I meet. I’ve noticed recently that it struggles with certain German websites for some reason. Most sites copy and paste the same type of cookie consent form, so maybe it just doesn’t know how to handle that specific type?
Anyway, one need to report the sites where it doesn’t work in order for the fellas that run it (Some Danish university students made it originally, not sure if they’re still in charge), to work on bypassing those new forms.
I still think webp is good xd
Beside the fact that some software are STILL not supporting it, what do people have against webp ?
The forcing of it from Google, trying to set their standards for the web. What’s wrong with jpg and png?
We could have jpeg xl, but Google said no
Webp has better compression than png and jpg which allows websites to load faster and consume less bandwith
Google’s interests actually align with ours here. They want a good image compression format so pages load faster and they get more info from people instead of them bouncing. Besides the last part, we also want that, so it’s a win-win. Webp is legitimately a good image format.
honestly, because nothing fucking supports it 😡
idgaf if it’s better in every way, if I can’t open it in the windows images application (school pc) I’m going to download in PNG instead
Weird, all my software has supported it for years
haha Jonathon we are being commodofied to train learning models 🧛♂️
