I’m not a parent, but I have much empathy for your predicament. You have the right to question this stuff, and learn about it, and decide how to handle it, without being judged. But, as others have said, I seriously doubt you’ll find that on social media, which for this issue is so politicized as to be utterly useless. It sounds like you could use a support group.

There might be a few resources on Substack:

• http://www.thestoicmom.com/ - I saved this a few months ago after seeing a link to it.
• https://pitt.substack.com/ - I know practically nothing about this one, but when I test-joined the above just now, Substack recommended it. I do see some anti-trans shitposts in the comments though.

For the Stoic Mom project, its perspective is the philosophy of Stoicism (so, she has that background), but she also has a trans daughter and appears to do consultations.

You might also consider contacting Conor Friedersdorf of The Atlantic, who wrote about this and is very well respected. Maybe he’d tell you which support groups he spoke to? You could also try to contact this woman, although I’m not sure how. Both are admittedly long shots.

Good luck.

Hey all! If I understand this right, for YouTube on iOS, Firefox works well since its built-in adblocker handles YouTube?

But, surely there’s no difference from using regular Safari with Vinegar or another content blocker, right? I just have that on my homescreen as a bookmark and it’s fine. I uninstalled the YouTube app.

What confuses me is Orion, which seems to be the only iOS browser that actually does have third-party extensions, so you can use uBlock, etc. I wonder how long that will last?! Maybe Apple decided there’s no point in booting them, since the EU will soon require an end to this Webkit bullshit for all iOS browsers?

Haha! It’s a real example. There was a Reddit thread in r/movies (which is a surprisingly good sub), and that came up. I ended up grabbing it. With more thought, it was a bad example, since I was able to get it on public trackers 😉

I’ll try it! Feel free to DM me.

I’d be fine with this. I have the seedbox for seeding. The problem is more about getting invites to a private tracker through some random method that I don’t know 😂

I use both sources daily. 4K TV has notably disappeared from them in the past few months.

Nice system. It looks like I could run most of that on my seedbox. Of course, I still need the content 😂

Do you mind if I ask more details about your system?

Thanks! I used to use Usenet! It’s been quite some time. I think I used to get porn, back when you had to download your porn to watch it 😉

It could be they just aren’t available at all.

Scary thought. If nobody’s doing 4K rips of a brand new hit Netflix show, the scene is not working right now. I’m inclined to think it’s just gone private, but I really don’t know.

That’s what I’m asking. Until recently, one didn’t need to bother with private trackers unless they wanted, say, a 4K rip of Suspiria from 1977, or some other incredibly specific thing. Private trackers, at least to me, were more trouble than they were worth. Why should I deal with them at all when I can get everything I need without begging for an invite and then annoying myself?

As a result, I have never joined a private tracker, not ever.

But now? I’m not sure. Something does seem to have changed systemically.

The main page works fine. It’s the stream links that pop everything up.

Interesting. Can you share how you installed uBlock on Orion on iOS?

Yep, will do. I just tried that on mobile Safari and it stomped all over 1Blocker and opened like 9 tabs 😂

Wow. I can’t thank you enough, I had no idea that existed.
