well i downloaded the “official” memmy app from the app store and it is working fine on lemmy.zip so it might be a instance issue. I"m in the process of moving to a smaller instance so that i can help reduce the load on lemmy.ml directly.

I honestly don’t know, but I did find this if you are working on windows or Mac. Warning this is probably. NOT free software.

It sounds like when you removed the efi partition it probably wiped the i/o info that allowed the drive to connect to the computer. Since it was operating fine until you removed that partition. The efi partition does hold important information for the ssd to be able to operate.

I’m not that tech savvy with ssd’s but logically there has to be something that allows the ssd to know to connect to the computer. When you think bout it pen drives have a partition you cannot delete for this reason after you format them.

Based on This info it seems you have rendered that ssd completely unusable.

Add to this not being worried about their phone more than the people they are talking to/ or spending time with

There is however a way of reverting this (for now?):

1. Load about:config in the Firefox address bar.

2. Click Accept the Risk and Continue, if the prompt appears.

3. Search for extensions.quarantinedDomains.enabled.

4. Set it to FALSE.

5. restart Firefox.

It’s just big tech trying to get it greedy fingers on money anyway they can! I understand it costs money to run websites, but it’s getting to the point where a lot of sites and ad revenue setups are starting to have more ads then actual content, like back in the 80’s and 90’s. And do t forget about the scripts that track everything up do so they can pinpoint ads that will peel to you, at so they think, based on browsing and search history. Hell even brave is starting to put ads and trackers in its browser

Do you have n idea of what you want instead of the lemming?

I just read this morning that someone is spamming the hell out of lemmy.world from what looks like an attempted DDoS run with a ton of communities with a bunch of random post with no actual content.

Everything. They don’t care about nothing but making more money. Greed will be the death of everyone who isn’t already rich.

I would recommend posting this to the lemmy linux community @Linux

I originally started with Knoppix in 1998 used that unitl i9 switched to ubuntu warty warthog and following versions until unity came out in then I switched to mint as unity constantly crashed my machine. stayed with mint for like 5 years, then moved to fedora for a year, switched to tumbleweed because I got tired of the SELinux in fedora causing issues.

Been on endeavourOS for a year now, and if i do decide to migrate a gain I will be going full vanilla arch.
