The Magic Trackpad and Logitech MX Master 3s mouse are an excellent combination for me. I see benefits from both.

This hits the nail on the head. The big issue here is that the submitted photos were not deleted and that is quite concerning to me.

How does this tool handle it when a user deletes or edits their message? Is the message still logged on your site?

The Razer Blackwidow v3 works fine for me. It is pleasant and responsive to type on and gets the job done.

"The maximum time without being clicked was 2 hours"

This is interesting. You must have shared it with quite a lot of people if it went such a short amount of time without being clicked.

I'll consider adding that, thanks!

This is something I plan to do eventually! I use a Chromium-based browser on a day-to-day basis, so that was what I wanted to tackle first.

Glad it worked for you - thanks for the feedback!

Re:RemoveAdblockThing on Monday October 16, 2023 @05:23PM (#37906845)

This seems extremely useful. I heard people saying that UBlock Origin would still work, but it seems that it doesn't work with the new YouTube popups. Hopefully this script helps.

Re:Ask HN: Migrating from Google Domains to Squarespace? on Monday October 16, 2023 @05:16PM (#37906755)

I don't like the idea of Squarespace becoming a registrar, so I moved my domains over to Porkbun at the suggestion of the friend and have been quite pleased with them.
