Isn't this a far-right meme? I remember a mentally challenged Twitter user self-publishing a book based on it.

You might want to listen to Cory Doctorow's talk on the enshitification on the internet before you apply that word to Firefox.

Sorry I only have this generic troubleshooting point to offer, but have you checked to see if NetworkManager might be modifying your IP routing table in unwanted ways during its operation?

From what you've described I'm under the impression that no Internet traffic needs to run through this system; perhaps NM is adding an unwanted default route?

This is correct.

I experience the same frustration on desktop too, on different websites. Perhaps more often when I try to select a title or heading. Another way in which the web had turned to shite.

Thank you for the links to Wikipedia and identity.com on that other thread. I've yet to wrap my head around how zero-knowledge proof could work for such a basic assertion as "user is of legal age", which calls for a 0 or 1 answer. It seems very different from the examples given of polynomial computations to prove knowledge of an exponent in a complex math expression. I can't see what could prevent any client to simply lie about the answer here.

Yup, you are correct . See this discussion: https://lemmy.ml/comment/7209860

Maybe there should be a separate Lemmy instance for children.

I stand corrected and I appreciate it.

FWIW I'm both a resident of France, where I remember reading in L'obs (center-left weekly political-focused magazine that—usually—does quality reporting) that Elisabeth Borne has a female significant as if she had made no efforts to hide it. I'm guessing now that it's one if those open parisian secrets (L'Obs has always been derided as being somewhat of a champagne socialist—here we say "caviar left"—outlet and it's true that it targets mainly the concerns of the upper middle class and above), that Elisabeth Borne didn't want to go national,

...And an American citizen who truly loves American journalism on the whole. In France there's just nothing like The Atlantic, or Conde Nast publications, or NYMag, or even The Verge, or passionate Substackers; there's hardly anyone as independent-minded Jesse Singal, or Katie Herzog, or Jonathan Haidt...

EDIT: Went back and checked said article from L'Obs, dated October 2022. It does in fact go no further than to mention "rumors of her homosexuality that floated around newsrooms". Total case of brain dysfunction on my part, I can only apologize. And downvote myself in atonement.

And I really wish people would stop being so self-centered as to request that news reporters use phrasing that be so imprecise as to be potentially untrue just to suit their whiny whims. You sound like you're so eager to introduce this little speech code of yours that you're asking the world to act and talk like non-outed gay people don't exist and never did. How more backwards can you get?
