Ad blockers aren’t going to help with this.
I think you’re overthinking this, and extrapolating limited data way too far.
For one, of course historically rich countries are going to be hosting more technology. Tech is expensive, and less developed countries are called that because they’re less developed, which includes electricity grids, internet, economic power, and so on.
Another issue is that just because a Mastodon server is hosted in a particular country, doesn’t mean only people in or from that country can make an account there. Sure, there are some servers that want to keep their communities specific to their local area, but the vast majority have no restrictions. Anyone from anywhere can sign up.
If you’re trying to figure out how to make it so historically poor countries have the most servers instead, you’re going to have to figure out how to fund and manage infrastructure expansion.
It feels like you’re coming at this with the assumption of “every country has the resources to spin up hundreds of social media servers, but they’re just not interested”, which is kind of a weird conclusion to come to after recognizing the historical impact of colonialism and the privilege differences it’s led to.
There are so many like this in the US. I don’t understand who thought they were a good idea or why they keep getting made
Except the ones with two lanes that can both exit or continue
Medical Grade Maggots is a good band name
Well you aren’t forced to publish your PC or Steam Deck game on Steam for one.

If you still need, I can test it out in a bit.
Voyager doesn’t have a way to send it links.
I need to release an update to refresh the supported domains soon, but I made an app that does the work of maintaining the giant list of possible domains and helps you set it as the default for all of them.
Not every client is supported, but there are a few options.
Or why you’d want to use them.
I had to do a semester of learning how to deal with Fourier Transforms, with vague mentions of sine waves and slopes, before seeing Technology Connections’ video on CDs and finally understanding what all that math was actually for.
The cool thing about software is that it can be updated, so if someone finds a vulnerability and follows the proper CVE disclosure process, instance admins can just update immediately when it’s disclosed.
I guess it’s a little trickier because open source software can’t really say “fix a vulnerability that hasn’t been disclosed yet” in a commit message without disclosing the bug, and instances can’t just be silently updated before disclosure, but I’m sure there are other ways to handle CVEs that don’t rely on information obfuscation.
Technically you sort of can do that with email. Most providers let you verify you own the other email and then use the other provider’s SMTP to send from a different address.
How did a jokey Reddit post of a screenshot of a support response turn into every site covering this like everyone is doing it and Valve is pleading everyone to stop?
This is true for S3 sleep, but that’s not the issue here. S0 sleep or Modern Standby just doesn’t put the computer to sleep. Windows manages device power states instead of the BIOS, and it usually doesn’t work out so well.
Overheating and battery drain caused by Modern Standby happen on laptops that are closed with nothing plugged in.
Ethernet is a protocol, not a medium. Cat5/5e/6/6a/7/etc are most commonly used as the physical link layer for Ethernet, but they’re just twisted pair copper.
Ethernet can also be run over coaxial, fiber, or the air.
“flushable” wet wipes usually aren’t actually flushable.

I know it’s broken, but I kind of like seeing the ridiculous ways villages can generate. Villagers in Minecraft are notoriously stupid, so it almost makes sense in a way that they wouldn’t be the best at creating practical towns.
