OP I don't want to sound racist or anything but are you Kurdish?

can confirm

A non-FOSS solution is https://www.truecaller.com/. It's super popular out here in India, works great.

I think a user script or extension could solve that. Im sure a lot of people on lemmy can make one. I hold ctrl while clicking links so this doesn't bother me.

If it can do that, i might just use it. It'll make code a whole lot cleaner to read.

Is it possible to host my own instance, for me and myself alone? That way I don't need to worry about my instance being down.

I think they might have meant confidence in the sense to go out and try things you'd normally be shy to do. But that's only how I'd interpret it.

What did you see, DenverCoder9?? (xkcd reference: https://xkcd.com/979/)

I like chromium. It's there no way I can enjoy the best of both worlds?

I think mega threads are really useful for when you're looking for credible sources.

Does this mean Docker instances are large in size? I haven't used it either but I've been meaning to get into it. If I can use stuff like nodemon in it, it'd be great.
