I don’t know how many people here are actively pondering the class divide that happens on a global level,

Because I don’t even know how many of my followers don’t live in a place that has a deep history of being a colonizer.

I’ve been just… trying to keep myself away from despair and envy. Over the people who helped make the art and media that kept me living and hopeful for the world and myself.

Staying hopeful rather than numb and dependent on fandom spaces. I falter, of course, and still.

I try to remember this one post I saw here: ‘first rule of being on the Internet is that you gotta have something else going on for you besides just the Internet.’ And I’ve been… uh… not great at that balance.

So to whoever feels the same, AND to those who don’t know what the heck I’m on about,

Those are my few cents that amount to nothing in British pounds, Euro cents, or even USD 0.01.

… but at least when the depression hits, I remember a stream clip from someone who gave me a lot of hope in my early adult years:

“(NSFW joke retracted), it’s been 8 before breakfast!”

Do you have thoughts about the changes to Firefox's Terms of Use and Privacy Notice? A lot of people seem to be freaking out ("This is like when google removed 'Don't be evil!'"), but it seems to me like just another case of people getting confused by legalese.

Yeah you got it in one.

I've been trying not to get too fighty about it so thank you for giving me the excuse to talk about it neutrally and not while arguing with someone.

Firefox sits in such an awful place when it comes to how people who understand technology at varying levels interact with it.

On one very extreme end you've got people who are pissed that Firefox won't let you install known malicious extensions because that's too controlling of the user experience; these are also the people who tend to say that firefox might as well be spyware because they are paid by google to have google as the default search engine for the browser.

In the middle you've got a bunch of people who know a little bit about technology - enough to know that they should be suspicious of it - but who are only passingly familiar with stuff like "internet protocols" and "security certificates" and "legal liability" who see every change that isn't explicitly about data anonymization as a threat that needs to be killed with fire. These are the people who tend not to know that you can change the data collection settings in Firefox.

And on the other extreme you've got people who are pretty sure that firefox is a witch and that you're going to get a virus if you download a browser that isn't chrome so they won't touch Firefox with a ten foot pole.

And it's just kind of exhausting. It reminds me of when you've got people who get more mad at queer creators for inelegantly supporting a cause than they are at blatant homophobes. Like, yeah, you focus on the people whose minds you can change, and Firefox is certainly more responsive to user feedback than Chrome, but also getting you to legally agree that you won't sue Firefox for temporarily storing a photo you're uploading isn't a sign that Firefox sold out and is collecting all your data to feed to whichever LLM is currently supposed to be pouring the most bottles of water into landfills before pissing in the plastic bottle and putting the plastic bottle full of urine in the landfill.

The post I keep seeing (and it's not one post, i've seen this in youtube comment sections and on discord and on tumblr) is:

Well-meaning person who has gotten the wrong end of the stick: This is it, go switch to sanguinetapir now, firefox has gone to the dark side and is selling your data. [Link to *an internet comment section* and/or redditor reactions as evidence of wrongdoing].

Response: I think you may be misreading the statements here, there's been an update about this and everything.

Well-meaning (and deeply annoying) person who has gotten the wrong end of the stick: If you'd read the link you'd see that actually no I didn't misinterpret this, as evidenced by the dozens of commenters on this other site who are misinterpreting the ToU the same way that I am, but more snarkily.

Bud.

Anyway the consensus from the actual security nerds is "jesus fucking christ we carry GPS locators in our pockets all goddamned day and there are cameras everywhere and there is a long-lasting global push to erode the right to encrypt your data and facebook is creating tracking accounts for people who don't even have a facebook and they are giving data about abortion travel to the goddamned police state" and they could not be reached for comment about whether Firefox is bad now, actually, because they collect anonymized data about the people who use pocket.

My response is that there is a simple fix for all of this and it is to walk into the sea.

(I am not worried about the updated firefox ToU, I personally have a fair amount of data collection enabled on my browser because I do actually want crash reports to go to firefox when my browser crashes; however i'm not actually all that worried about firefox collecting, like, ad data on me because I haven't seen an ad in ten years and if one popped up on my browser i'd smash my screen with a stand mixer - I don't care about location data either because turning on location on your devices is for suckers but also *the way the internet works means unless you're using a traffic anonymizer at all times your browser/isp/websites you connect to/vpn/what fucking ever know where you are because of the IP address that they *have* to be able to see to deliver the internet to you and that is, generally speaking, logged as a matter of course by the systems that interact with it*)

Anyway if you're worried about firefox collecting your data you should ABSOLUTELY NOT BE ON DISCORD OR YOUTUBE and if you are on either of those things you should 100% be using them in a browser instead of an app and i don't particularly care if that browser is firefox or tonsilferret but it should be one with an extension that allows you to choose what data gets shared with the sites it interacts with.

International SEO: Optimizing for Global Audiences

In today’s interconnected world, businesses can no longer rely solely on local markets for growth. The internet has opened up the possibility of reaching global audiences, but for that to happen successfully, businesses need to implement a solid International SEO strategy. This guide will provide insights on how to optimize your website for different countries and languages, ensuring that your content ranks well across various global search engines and connects with audiences in different regions.

What is International SEO?

International SEO involves optimizing a website to ensure that search engines can easily identify which countries and languages it is targeting. It is an extension of traditional SEO that goes beyond improving rankings in one country or language, focusing instead on tailoring content, keywords, and technical aspects to meet the unique needs of users from various global markets.

Why is International SEO Important?

Expanding Global Reach: International SEO allows you to target users across different countries, widening your audience base and attracting potential customers worldwide.

Improving User Experience: Offering localized content in users' native languages enhances their experience, making it easier for them to find the information they seek.

Higher Conversions: When users find content tailored to their language and region, they are more likely to engage with your website, leading to improved conversion rates.

Staying Competitive: International SEO gives you an edge over competitors who haven’t optimized their websites for a global audience, allowing you to tap into underserved markets.

Key Components of International SEO

To optimize your website for global audiences, focus on the following key components:

1. Identifying Target Markets

The first step in international SEO is to identify which countries and regions you want to target. Research market demand for your products or services in these areas and understand local search behavior. This analysis will help you determine where to allocate your resources and how to craft your content for specific audiences.

2. Choosing the Right Website Structure

There are three common ways to structure your website for international SEO:

Country Code Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs): These are domain extensions specific to a country, such as .uk for the United Kingdom or .de for Germany. They clearly signal to search engines and users that your site is targeting a particular region.

Subdomains: You can create subdomains for different countries or languages under the same main domain (e.g., uk.example.com for the UK). This method is easier to manage than multiple ccTLDs.

Subdirectories: This method uses subfolders under the main domain to target different regions (e.g., example.com/uk/). It’s often the easiest and most cost-effective solution for businesses managing multiple country-specific versions of their site.

Each structure has its advantages, but the decision should be based on your specific goals, the level of localization needed, and your available resources.

3. Implementing Hreflang Tags

Hreflang tags are crucial for telling search engines which language and region-specific content to display to users. This ensures that people from different countries are directed to the correct version of your website. These tags are essential for websites with multiple language or country versions, as they prevent content duplication issues and help improve SEO rankings for localized content.

4. Localized Keyword Research

Just as keyword strategies differ between industries, they also vary by country and language. Simply translating keywords from one language to another may not capture the search intent of users in another region. Therefore, conducting localized keyword research is essential.

Consider the following when performing keyword research for different regions:

The local language, slang, and phrases used by target audiences

Differences in search behavior across countries

Tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, or SEMrush to analyze search volumes in different regions

By understanding the local context, you can better target your content and improve your visibility in each market.

5. Content Localization

Translation alone is not enough when targeting international audiences. Localization means adapting your content to suit cultural and regional preferences, ensuring it resonates with local users. This includes:

Adapting written content to local customs, expressions, and tone

Modifying images, videos, and other multimedia content to align with local aesthetics

Adjusting currencies, date formats, and units of measurement

Creating region-specific promotions, offers, and calls-to-action

Localized content demonstrates that your business values its international customers, fostering trust and brand loyalty.

6. Technical Optimization for Global Audiences

Technical SEO plays a significant role in improving site performance for international users. Ensure that your website is optimized for speed and mobile responsiveness, regardless of the region. Some key technical considerations for international SEO include:

Geotargeting: Use tools like Google Search Console to indicate the target country for each version of your website.

Fast Load Times: Consider hosting your site on local servers for better speed and performance in specific regions.

Mobile Optimization: Given the global rise in mobile internet usage, ensure that your website is fully optimized for mobile devices in every market.

7. Building Local Backlinks

Building a strong backlink profile is vital for boosting your SEO rankings, and it’s no different for international SEO. To improve your site’s domain authority in specific regions, focus on acquiring backlinks from local websites, blogs, and influencers. Partnerships with reputable local organizations or guest posting on region-specific websites can help you build valuable local links that improve your visibility in new markets.

8. Monitoring International SEO Performance

Once your international SEO efforts are in place, regularly monitor their performance. Use tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console to track:

Organic traffic by region

Keyword rankings in different markets

User behavior and engagement by country

Conversion rates and bounce rates across regions

Analyzing these metrics will help you understand which markets are performing well and where adjustments are needed.

Challenges in International SEO

Language Barriers: Adapting content for different languages is a challenge, particularly when dealing with regions that have diverse dialects or cultural nuances.

Technical Complexity: Structuring your website and correctly implementing hreflang tags can be a technical challenge, requiring meticulous planning.

Content Duplication: Without proper implementation, you risk search engines indexing duplicate content, which can hurt your rankings.

Resource Management: Maintaining multiple versions of your website for different regions requires considerable resources, from content creators to SEO specialists.

Conclusion

International SEO is a powerful tool for businesses looking to expand their digital footprint globally. By optimizing your website for different languages and regions, you can reach new customers, improve user experiences, and ultimately drive growth in markets beyond your home country.

Start by identifying your target markets, structuring your website for international SEO, conducting localized keyword research, and ensuring content is culturally relevant. With the right strategy in place, your business can achieve sustainable, global growth.
