A QR code just links to a URL. If you link to a URL that you own or control, it'll be fine. The problem comes when people use a link shortener that allows the destination to be changed later, or if they lose control of the domain or its backend.

Not quite a screen shot, but the text:

uBlock filters – Badware risks

The warnings pop up and hitting proceed shows scammy fake virus scans and such. To make it clear, it's not luckypatchers itself, but the dodgy full screen ads on load.

Hopefully you're right that it's AB testing, though not sure how they'd gauge your approval/disapproval of colour scheme.

Going back to what I said earlier after further use - better contrast for the suggested route in daytime navigation, however, the nighttime colour scheme has worse contrast than before.

I miss redditbay for cheap keys and licenses and accounts.

Ublock Origin kicks up repeated warnings for this.

Adguard lifetime licence - install adguard on your phone, done.

Or just configure your phone's DNS setting to use adguard DNS, or other free adblocking DNS.

When navigating, there's now better contrast for the route.

This is a good example of hallucination, both by the AI and by OP. The first and third word of each line is a synonym for average.

Oh man, dustbusters! From 10 minutes run time out of the box to 30 seconds of asthmatic wheeze after a few months' use.

I used to use Waze, but got tired of it sending me through back streets and turns to save only a minute - problem was, those slower back streets and waiting at junctions ended up taking longer.

Google Maps on the other hand will offer more sane routes, and only send me down back streets where the saving is more than say 4 or 5minutes.

Also, Waze made my phone HOT!

Substitute your beliefs in FOSS etc for god, veganism, Apple, Trump, Biden, your favourite band - and realise that everyone's on their own journey. Don't be that guy forcing your beliefs on your friends and family. Or, like you do, find a social group that does share your beliefs. Enjoy them. Enjoy your family and friends.
