Are there any known issues with it? I just updated on my Mac and don't appear to be able to group tabs - dragging one on top of another just reorders them

Haha, came here to report the same
For some context, I'm using sites like https://www.theverge.com/ and https://www.wired.com/ for more general browsing. Wired had a UK domain with some different content, but that appears to have ceased operation and now the .co.uk domain redirects to the general .com
Yea I understand the reasoning, but my general apathy prevented me from going that route - it was a "do I care enough about <topic> to go throuugh finding someone and convincing them to vouch for me?" type thing, and the few times I've wanted to comment, I've just given up.
I'm not against the invite-only system, having been a forum moderator for several years, but I'm happy to just be a consumer/observer of the conversation rather than a participant.
I tried getting access to the site once but gave up as the invitiation thing was a bit of a gatekeeper for me (by design)
Digging around there appears to be a newer article (which probably prompted the original thread) is here https://palant.info/2023/08/29/chrome-sync-privacy-is-still-... which has it's own HN thread here
This article is from 2018, and contains a single update from 2020. I would think the terrain has shifted in the last 3 years, so take the article with an appropriate pinch of salt.
Haha nice! Also https://httpstatusdogs.com/
I was really interested in this as an easy way to help people get to grips with the intricacies of Pandas and working with dataframes, but after looking over the source code that's published on Pypi I don't think I can ever recommend this package to anyone due to the degree of tracking that's present in the code.
There's no mention of the Segment tracking in the docs, and I don't see anyway for the user to opt out of it, which I think is an immediate GDPR issue.
Given that you are logging metadata about the dataframes in use along with the user email and name of the logged in user, I can't see this ever being used in an environment where sensitive data is being processed, since it could potentially leak PII that's easily tied to a given company via the email address.
This is a great idea, and I think if you can go with the BSD license and provide a way for people to opt out of tracking (or ideally flip it and allow them to opt in) this could be used in any number of industries. As it stands currently I just don't think this will ever pass a data audit at any large company which is a real shame.
Similar idea to https://dotbigbang.com/ except it's more platform focused and not browser native
Really nice! I often copy and paste recipes into text files I have locally so this is a great alternative.
One feature request (if I may be so bold): it would be great to offer an imperial<->metric convertor. This is predominantly one of the reasons I keep copies of recipes I find and use.
You have no idea how often I've wanted something like this for GitHub. Thanks so much!
