Another benefit of moving to lemmy, less tracking. Win win, I must say.
Edit: another 3 year old post. Sorting by hot is more than definitely bugged… Hope they fix it somewhat soon, cause idk what is going on.
This does not surprise me in the slightest.
I already isolated the fuck out of Reddit and the links I clicked there with Temporary Containers. But it doesn’t surprise me that they’re now trying to reach around the well known fingerprinting mitigations.
The fact they’re even considering adopting such invasive scripts is the perfect sign that Reddit is dead.
I just hope the plebs don’t stay asleep for too long…though they’re being so egregiously pushy right now, that it’s only a matter of time before even the common user gets pissed off thoroughly.
