For me (and I suspect a few other people working with react, but certainly not everyone), the main issue with hooks is exactly that class components were fine, and hooks are fine, and we did not need nor want more "fine".

Hooks feel more like something added to fill in space and another example of the ecosystem bloating itself just for show.


There’s things that are easier with hooks, but there’s also a lot that has become a bunch more magic.


Linkedin has also been doing this for years - tens upon tens of different "communication preference" options. They keep adding more, or renaming existing ones and defaulting them to on.


"it triggers an almost existential crisis in them. It's kind of sad to watch."

Said the person (probably) working in an industry that's blooming, without a hint of irony.


The 90 day limit in Greece is related to how income from the properties is taxed iirc.


Not exactly:

It's 90 days, 60 days on small islands and you can only go over that limit if you're low-income. Compliance is a different issue, because Greece, but hopefully AirBnB and the other platforms will help police this.


Yeah, highly marginalized people have historicaly been well accepted in excisting support groups, particularly religious and local political ones.


Don't check this checkbox if you want to miss out on not getting amazing promotional emails, great poems and the occasional bobcat.


Haven't used android in a couple of years but firefox used to support addons (and it looks like it still does).


GeckoView doesn't support addons yet. This is pending discussion, but it looks like the goal is to focus on mobile optimization first.

As a tester of Firefox Preview: WebRender has been a godsend for mobile browsing -- I have yet to see it choke!


Firefox was kinda slow sometimes with too much JS on the page on my old phone but still overall usable, and that was a J3 (replaced just last week), so I'd say that's pretty good. Great and lag-free on my s10+ so far. Not convinced optimization should be a priority over features and addons.


WebRender doesn't work for me, "Unsupported Vendor" :(

Moto G4, Qualcomm Adreno 405, OpenGL ES 3.2

about:config doesn't work either


One could say the same for the ads industry.


The ad industry has a higher stake. What they do pays their mortgages/medical/college bills.

When you fight someone who has more to loose, it usually is a waste of energy. If you want them to change you have to reduce the stakes for them.


> If you want them to change you have to reduce the stakes for them.

Why? It just has to become unprofitable for them to look for something else. They will adjust their stakes accordingly (are you proposing getting them a different source of income? wouldn't someone greedy just accept both?).


"The national Football League (LaLiga) was fined for offering an app which once per minute accessed the microphone of users' mobile phones in order to detect pubs screening football matches without paying a fee"

Yes, proof of weaponized gdpr use indeed (for very specific filtering cases of gdpr use).


It's like software quality is sometimes irrelevant to monetary success or something.
