Presumably you can dismiss that, because I don’t see it. The results are just okay, but they’re leagues ahead of Google. Plus, you know, trees.

You need to use your protests as recruiting grounds for more direct pressure on your government. You should establish or join a lobbying organization and recruit volunteers. You will have these people write letters to the editor, solicit for donations, call and write to your representatives, and schedule in-person meetings with government officials.
Standing on the street and yelling by itself is not enough, you need to become a part of the establishment to affect change, but you can grow your organization by finding people who have proven to be motivated. A protest is a great place for that sort of thing.
I have no idea what’s IPv6 but I use Ecosia, which uses Bing but protects your privacy and plants trees. I sure hope it has IPv6.
The Israel and Palestine situation is way too complicated to be left to "I support Israel." Support in what way? Their existence? Their military campaigns? Their government? Their settlements? Everything they've ever done ever?
Do you then oppose everything done by people from Palestine? Do you then oppose the existence of Palestine?
In my opinion it's not okay to leave your opinion as that simple. If that's all you've got your opinion is bad because it's simplistic, not because it supports a particular side.
Entirely ignoring who is at burning man or why, I honestly think there needs to be a line somewhere for sympathy. If you truck yourself out into the desert and things go tits up, well, shit happens. That’s the risk you took.
I say this as a person who used to ride motorcycles, rock climb, and go backpacking. If shit ever went down I wouldn’t have expected any sympathy. I put myself in those risky situations, and there’s just plain gotta be a line for personal responsibility.
With all that being said, when such a massive group of people continuely take the same risk over and over, it’s kinda funny when they finally get bit. It’s the same reason COVID denires getting COVID is funny.
Honestly, I have no idea what mine is set to, and the average user won’t either. Just messing with the settings is borderline power user stuff these days, when you factor in the general public. I did something with my settings the day I installed and I haven’t looked back.
That being said, a lemmy sub for Firefox ain’t exactly a representative sample of the general population.
It really depends on how big your area is and what you mean by changing the climate. You can make your backyard way more pleasant by increasing the plant cover, which will drop temperatures in the summer and provide homes for bugs and animals if you do it right. Fifty acres might be enough for you to notice just a general cooler climate if you replaced mowed grass or farm with a dense forest. It would also help slow evaporation from the soil. But you’re not gonna noticably change the amount of rain until you get into land areas comparable to a US state or maybe large city, unless you have very particular geography.
