I feel extremely silly asking this question, but I am truly curious: Isn’t Nazism illegal in Germany? And if so, why exactly hasn’t AfD been banned yet? Like, is it a matter of them carefully using plausible deniability, dogwhistles and skirting JUST enough beyond the laws currently to not be labeled Nazis?
This feels quite bad. Anyone here with a bit more knowledge on current German politics able to shed some light on how bad this truly is though? Like, does this seem to be an omen of what’s to come or will time only tell?
I hadn’t heard of Invidious prior to this whole thing. Now I am using it.
They haven’t really advanced a whole lot, unless you want an android tablet with e-ink and deal with the annoyance that will bring or are looking for an eink tablet to write on. Newer ones aimed primarily to reading are now usually water resistant, have non-recessed screens, and audiobook support with the exclusive service each ereader company is provided by (kobo only has kobo audiobooks, kindle only has audible books etc) so the technology hasn’t evolved a whole lot unless you want to detangle yourself from the Amazon ecosystem. There are android e-ink tablets, but most them are unfortunately made by Chinese companies that not only require you to manually enable the android app store, but there’s pretty big privacy concerns and just general shady business practices amongst nearly all of the few that operate in that niche market (especially amongst Boox, they have paid people to write fake reviews)
There are some color ereaders but the technology isn’t really ready for general use, its very finnicky and has a bunch of issues when used in consumer ereaders. Writing based eink tablets are excellent though, if that’s something you are into.
I personally have kept my 2015 kindle and as long as its still running I’m gonna stick with it personally.
They are going to cause issues sooner rather than later in communities that don’t defederate from them. It’s quite literally just a given. I’m shocked some of those instances haven’t defederated from them already.
