  • This is the result of them blocking invidious. They targeted large Datacenter nodes and check for the number of requests from those datacenters that aren’t logged in, and block them until that number meets a certain threshold. This also causes people with VPNs to get this message. The solution is to connect to smaller self-hosted invidious instances or using proxies hosted on normal residential ips.





  • Also disingeneous to call it adding ads to firefox, because that’s also not what is happening. They’re trying to replace cookies with something better for our privacy, and them developing this feature will not impact any users who block ads or disable tracking cookies already.

    I think they should go ahead and make the feature so that people who don’t care about ads at least don’t get tracked.



  • It takes a while getting used to anything. Gimp does have a Photoshop keyboard shortcut preset, to ease you into it.

    And gimp does have some parts that are better. For example importing a bunch of images and lining them up on a spritesheet is both faster and easier on Gimp. And both Photoshop and gimp have scripts to do this, but I was never able to get the Photoshop script to work.



  • It is all keyboard shortcuts, though, and you can configure them to all use the same ones. I believe they have a “Photoshop-like” preset you can select too.

    About the RAM, I’m not sure what can be done. I guess it is a tradeoff. I’d probably go with more RAM consumption over Photoshop because I have a lot of RAM, but not everyone do. Considering the price of Photoshop if you didn’t pirate it, it would be cheaper to buy and install more RAM, though.
