Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

IT in the EU:
Due to some EU laws, there has to be a "cookie consent" dialog on every website that uses cookies. I would estimate that more than 50% (probably too low) of these popups are cosmetic only and it doesn't actually matter if you click accept or reject.
Wow that suck. I always spend time turning off every legitimate consent button. So I get cookies anyway?
You could set your browser to clear all cookies when you close it. That does mean you have to keep logging into sites every time you open the browser again, but with a password manager that's not really a problem.
You don't need cookies to stay logged in anymore. You actually don't need cookies for anything.
gdpr is a different thing than the cookie law, refusing consent is a real thing that everyone in the industry spent a hell of a lot of time and effort implementing to the letter because the fines for companies are way too large for anyone to ignore
There's plugins that will do it for you (with the max privacy settings so you don't have to worry about getting tricked by phrasing).
I even have one on my mobile browser.
Is there one for iOS browsers? I mostly use firefox on ios
What's it called, friendo?
Ghostery is what I use on my phone (alongside other stuff like uBlock origin)

Thanks friendo!
Yeah probably.
Use this: https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies And combine it with this: https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete
I've set it to delete cookies on domain change.
