I'd suggest some kind of "press this key to view debug information" text (or make it documented but not visible, to avoid people just pressing whatever button is written on the screen)

Hosted on poast, though, which is defederated from literally everyone decent for a good reason

I'll stick with AP for now but I'll keep an eye on it, then.

Nostr is culturally vaguely american, and it's hard to distinguish the libertarians from the Trumpists there (I've seen several posts saying "Trump will be better for Bitcoin", for example). Libertarians and republicans both sell themselves as "small government".

"Leftist libertarians" generally call themselves anarchists, in my experience.

I checked out Nostr relatively recently and it seemed to me it was full of cryptobros and extremely right-wing people (libertarians, Trump fanatics. A ton of racism and queerphobia, also a bunch of conspiracy thinking). Has anything changed?

Out of curiosity, I looked up the numbers. This is correct, they make 9.2 billion per quarter from ads and 10.7 billion from subscriptions. I can't find expenses per-segment, but in 2023 their total "Cost of revenues" was 37 billion. I doubt everything other than youtube costs less than 17 billion, so they're definitely making a profit.

It completely breaks them, currently: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/11139

This applies to at least NewPipe and yt-dlp, probably basically every such tool. Also, if you use logged-in cookies and download, they sometimes ban your account! Fun!

... which is why youtube has recently started blocking non-logged in users

It's actually several seminars. For historical reasons presentations from gay frogs, lesbian frogs, bisexual frogs, etc. Are all grouped under "gay frog seminar"

Just to offer some support, you're right and those are good questions

How do you know how much of the disc is used?

Fair. Powertoys is really extensive. I quite like Pop (or gnome's? Not sure) tiling window manager though.
