Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I believe the PFLP and the DFLP were involved in this conference as well.

I thought the main argument against amp links is that they make it easier for Google to track you, and it takes away ad revenue from publishers. Yet the irony is with your archive link, I had to solve multiple Google ReCaptcha puzzles (which also took an entire minute of my life), and The Guardian still gets no ad revenue. I'll stick to amp links.

firefox right? there's a dns setting that causes this behavior with archive.today, I think it's encrypted DNS you need to turn off. DNS over HTTPS? something like that

are amp links inherently bad or is it just in solidarity with desktop comrades?

routing traffic through google is bad, yes.

The majority of the internet relies on Google Ads, Analytics, Recaptcha, or their Javascript CDN. Not to even mention Google Domains, Google Fiber, Google Fi... There is no escape.

Nonetheless, the agreement marks a diplomatic coup for Beijing and its growing influence in the Middle East

A coup is when you get feuding forces to bury the hatchet

In this context it probably just means a major success nerd

18 comments seems like a decent amount, but then it turns out it's mostly just about web-links.
