    Better yet: Try the Indie Wiki Buddy extension. It serves 2 purposes:

    1. It redirects you from fandom wikis to the new official wikis, to which the community has now moved from the fandom one. Also filters out fandom results from search engines only if an independent, more up-to-date alternative exists.
    2. If something is still hosted on fandom with no indie wiki, redirects it to a BreezeWiki instance.

    I use it in combination with wiki.gg redirect, which redirects to newer wikis which aren’t independent, but moved to wiki.gg from fandom.

    Update: IndieWikiBuddy can now redirect to Wiki.gg wikis too, no need for wiki.gg redirect.

    Thought I’d drop my Reader recommendations (all free of cost and FOSS):

    • iOS/iPadOS and MacOS: NetNewsWire - App Store, GitHub
    • Android: ReadYou - F-Droid, GitHub
    • Linux: NewsFlash - Flathub, GitLab
    • Windows (cross-platform): GitHub I’m not listing links for all 6-ish platforms of just this one individually just go here.

    The aforementioned are readers which can either read feeds saved in them locally, or on a supported service. If you wish to self-host a feed aggregator (so you can sync your read articles etc across platforms), I recommend FreshRSS. NetNewsWire can sync this stuff over iCloud.






  • Wait, Teams opened in Edge lets you make and answer calls? What if you change your User Agent String in Firefox to Edge (as I do for using Bing Chat)?

    For Bing, I have a container (using Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension) and I have the User Agent of that container set to Microsoft Edge (using User Agent Switcher extension). Bing thinks I’m on Edge and lets me do everything there my browser is, supposedly, incapable of doing, like typing to an AI model.

    I don’t use teams, someone who does please test this.
