Depends on the features.
Git has some counterintuitive commands for some commands you may want to do when you want to quickly do something. Being able to click a button and have the IDE remember the syntax for you is nice.
Some IDEs have extra non-native Git features like have inlined “git blame” outputs as you edit (easily see a commit message per-line, see who changed what, etc.), better diff/merge tooling (JetBrain’s merge tool comes to mind), being able to revert parts of the file instead of the whole file, etc.

I’m going to be honest, I don’t really like VS Code’s Git integration either. I find it clunky and opinionated with shitty opinions.
You don’t have to save your files to Adobe cloud, if that’s what you mean. It does check for a valid license occasionally, but I’ve used Photoshop when my internet was out without any problems in the past.
micka190@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Photoshop Terms of Service grants Adobe access to user projects for ‘content moderation’ and other purposes4·1 year agoPhotoshop does a lot of things in really stupid, convoluted ways. Krita also does a lot of the same things in equally stupid, convoluted ways, but different than PS so you get no benefit from knowing how its done in other software. Text editing comes to mind. Both PS and Krita feel like they were designed by drunk people when it comes to doing anything beyond writing text and picking a font/color/size.
Uhm, yes? Kill codes are dumb. Use a dead man’s switch instead. If you don’t enter the code it self destructs. Now that’s privacy!
Nothing concrete from what I can tell. Becoming a hard fork is relatively recent though (mid-November of last year, roughly).
As a side note, I understand why Gitea and Forgejo went for a “copy GitHub Actions” approach to their CI, but man do I wish more self-hosted repo software tried to copy Drone/Woodpecker instead. Iterative containers in the pipeline is such a smoother build experience, and it kind of sucks that Gitness is the only one doing it (that I know of).
They were still pulling in mainline Gitea changes while introducing their own stuff last I checked.
Whenever someone brings this up, someone also brings up the fact that ads are proven to work in general not on everyone. So I guess it’s my turn today.
micka190@lemmy.worldto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•What VPN would you recommend for torrenting?English81·1 year agoOnly if you have the appropriate level of privacy settings enabled (and extensions installed) in your browser. Your IP address actually has very little to do with ID-ing you, since most trackers will use hundreds of different fingerprinting methods to create “shadow accounts” of you using things like your system information, screen resolution, installed locales, etc.
This doesn’t mean a VPN doesn’t help, though. Just pointing-out that you probably won’t be asked if you’re a bot if you go on Google while logged-in to a Google account, regardless of whether your VPN is on or not.

I would assume that they will handle it like this:
To be able to sell your VPN service in Italy, you’ll have to get accredited. Since you’re now taking Italian customers’ money, your company’s dealings in Italy fall under Italian law. They might be able to extradite you, depending on what country you operate from, but realistically most businesses don’t want to get involved in that kind of stuff, because even if you don’t get extradited, no one wants to be put in a situation where they need to actively avoid a country.
This leaves free VPN services, right? Well, since ISP and “legal” VPNs need to conform to the new law, the Italian government could blacklist those VPNs’ websites (which all ISPs and legal VPNs are required by law to block within 30 minutes of them being added to the block list). So now, you’re in an awkward position as an Italian if you want to get a VPN that doesn’t follow those laws.
I’m not sure at what extent this law goes, or how they handle people who are paying to circumvent it (because you might have bought a VPN before this), but they might simply require that banks refuse to process payments from VPN providers that refuse to get accredited.
Obviously, they can’t really block this thing without going the Great Firewall route (and even that has ways of being bypassed), but that’s not really their goal here. Their goal is to establish a stranglehold on what the everyday citizen does. It’s to put a framework in place that allows them to quickly and efficiently block content they deem you shouldn’t be able to see. It’s a disgusting display of a government overreaching and censoring what their citizens’ have access to on the web.

All VPN and open DNS services must also comply with blocking orders, including through accreditation to the Piracy Shield platform.
According to the article, it requires them to get accreditation to operate in in Italy, unless I’m reading that wrong.
Most corporate VPN companies I’ve dealt with would love to slip in additional cost to counteract this cost on their end.

There is no review or judicial oversight to sites added to the block list. This seems to include all forms of VPNs, including corporate ones. They could start charging a premium to Italian users which would start affecting businesses, I guess.

Purging and re-dowloading the ublock stuff didn't workEnglish61·2 years agoYeah, in general, you’ll be fine with Firefox and any of the default filters uBlock provides (even the ones that are disabled by default). The issue usually comes from outdated third-party filter lists that try to block youTube’s tracking. Since the changes, you should pretty much only rely on the official lists for anything YouTube-related.
Or maybe OP’s got another extension that tries to block ads. I know I’ve had to disable Enhancer for YouTube’s ad blocking (because YouTube detects it immediately).

Triple backticks are meant for code blocks, not to make the text look fancy. Not wrapping lines is a feature and working as intended.

The UK government’s obsession with being a Big Brother is so damn frustrating. A preview of what other governments will try and become in the near future, unfortunately.
