As a workaround you probably could use a parcel forwarding service:

https://www.forward2me.com/

https://shipgerman.com/en/

https://www.no-border.eu/

I have no experience with these providers, but I've used similar services in the past and had good experiences for the most part.

But yeah, it really sucks that they aren't able to ship to other EU countries, while other shops can.

I'd prefer that notifications are blocked by default (should be opt-in instead of opt-out). The only apps I NEED notifications for, are messaging apps, everything else is just annoying.

How to get rid of factory applied laptop stickers? (lemmy.ml)

Hi, I got a used laptop from an family member. It did have this this annoying sticker on it (see picture). Apparently for years already.

So, how can I remove it without scratching the metal body or leaving residue behind?

Multiple Adblockers in a row - does it make sense or is it even harmful? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, I was wondering, is it useful to use multiple adblockers in a row?

I don't mean 4 or five 5 browser extensions more like a chain of adblockers, one on every passing network point.

Adblock DNS -> Pi-Hole -> Linux System with hBlock -> Browser with uBlock Origin

I have only a 10 Mbit Internet connection, so I fear that this would slowdown pageloads to much. On the other hand there are filterlists that uBlock can use where as Pi-Hole can't.

So what combination does make sense (is efficient in every aspect) and what do you use?
