Please give me some good follow recommendations on Mastodon

Would also recommend the CleanURLs extension that tries to remove tracking elements from URLs you click. It's not 100% perfect, especially against those shortcut links, but the "Copy Clean URL" button when you right click makes it easy to share stuff without the tracking bullshit

Since it was in retaliation for a lynching I imagine it was just cruelty on the cadres' part they thought was justified

That's my issue, as a party you can say you follow Stalin but if you're not backing it up that's a problem!

Has there been much in Ukraine in way of anti-war protests? I've heard there have been some but it doesn't seem like there's an organized anti-war or even anti-conscription movement, although that could be due to the western media bubble

1000 curses upon the lawyers and executives of Kakao Entertainment. May they never know the light of heaven.

Some brave folks on the manga piracy subreddit are planning on continuing development with a fork so hope may not be lost, but Kakao said they're also going to target downstream forks so we'll see what happens.

In case you missed it, popular manga reader app Tachiyomi pushed an update this week that removed its web extension list for manga reader sites like mangadex and said they'll be moving to a move plex/jellyfin like model of "bring your own content".

Today a Korean manwha publisher, Kakao Entertainment, announced on their twitter they've been gathering details about the project's main contributors for pursuing legal action to attempt to shutdown the project and all downstream forks.

Third party rehosts of the extension list have already popped up, but they won't be much use if the main app gets shutdown. Also it's unclear to me if the extensions will be updated going forward, so they may stop working in the future.

Kakao's post in case you can't read or view it:

Tachiyomi, under the guise of 'legitimate' open-source development, has been seriously infringing on the copyright of manwhas worldwide.

We have collected personal details of most individuals invovled in this project and plan to proceed with strong legal and institutional responses against over 100 forked Github pages.

[Disgusting plug for their garbage service]

Be Official, Be Legal Readers.

I think this isn't something specific to the internet and smart phones, it's just the sheer ubiquity and convenience make existing without them unfathomable despite plenty of people in the world living without it, like electricity or running water.

Reminder! This is the last official chapter of One Piece for 2023 because of holiday breaks etc so we'll be posting the discussion threads following the TCB releases going forward, which means possibly one more chapter, cuz otherwise we'd be waiting until mid-January and I need my damn fix.

I'm not saying that couldn't be the origin, but reading through some stuff on google points to it originating as a pidgin english term (original either coming from Mandarin or an Indigenous American language)

What's interesting is it's not a direct appropriation like whites naming their kids Lashawn and more in the spirit of it; i.e. names with no cultural origin or taking ones that do and modifying the spelling/pronunciation
