This is so rude. You've done nothing for the guy (neither have I), and have probably used and benefited from his work (that we did not pay for) in some way - and then to single him out and ridicule him? There's an actual human on the other side there...

It’s not dangerous at all, superheating is rarely a thing and you can avoid it in a multitude of ways including slapping a spoon in your cup

Ah, so I should just put my metal teaspoon in my cup and I'll be fine?

(Don't put metal in the microwave.)

Ah yes, RDM is a clever workaround for that - I should remember that.

You don't even need to open Responsive Design Mode - when you select Take Screenshot, there are two buttons "Save visible" and "Save full page" in the top right-hand corner.

Legit one of the most underrated Firefox features that I use all the time: right-click -> Take Screenshot (or Ctrl+Shift+S). No need to look up the relevant node, just hover the relevant part with your cursor.

Dat moet ook gebeuren, maar is ongetwijfeld niet één-twee-drie klaar.

They haven't messed with it yet. The EU's a democracy and we can still influence its course.

I mean, yes, it could've been differently, and as I understand it they're going to. But as a user, how is your life worse with this than without this? What's the impact of something being installed but not running?

Well, there's a way to frame this as malicious. I'm not a fan of Brave, but it also installs, say, a spell checker without consent, or a Tor client. Sure, the code is there even if you don't use it, but... What's the actual harm?

I have no idea, unfortunately :/

I wouldn't call it a mistake, more like being caught between a rock and a hard place, where Android basically forced them to give up on SMS support even though they'd have liked to keep it: https://community.signalusers.org/t/signal-blog-removing-sms-support-from-signal-android-very-soon/47954/57

But yes, it was really nice when I could use it as my SMS app. Then again, very few people in my country use SMS in the first place - it's all WhatsApp, and it was never able to have support for that. Luckily, most of my friends have adopted Signal by now.
