Please don't do this! Han Unification causes your Japanese text look weird when displayed with a Simplified Chinese font, likewise with a Traditional Chinese or Korean font.

Even this is somewhat broken. If you run this after connecting to the Internet then it doesn't do anything and still forces you to use a Microsoft account (unless you somehow get it to throw you back to that page).
So is this suggesting that browsers should automatically trust all certificates? The Kazakh government sure would like that to happen.

If you ever see an Amazon listing have full-width characters, they're almost certainly either Chinese sellers or sellers that are really good a copying and pasting from Chinese sellers.
I don't think you're in the target audience of Tumblr, which is fine.
On M1 Max with Safari 15.5, it took me about 40 seconds of fast scrolling to get it to start stuttering occasionally. Then, another 30 seconds to get it to start blanking out for a second at a time. And finally, another 30 seconds to get it to start taking seconds to render. I won't give the number of posts before it started lagging because I don't know the exact number.
On my phone (iPhone 13 Pro Max, albeit on the iOS 16 beta), it takes Safari about 15 seconds of scrolling before the scrolling drops to around 40fps from what looked close to 120fps. Then, another 20 seconds to start seeing things rendering halfway before jumping around and then rendering the correct post. This isn't necessarily a fair comparison due to the usage of beta software, but even on an M1 on production OS software it doesn't seem to be much better. Chrome 102 on macOS handles the exact thing that I did without any problem at all.
It's especially bad when you have a lot of videos on your dashboard. If you only have image posts, it might take a bit longer to start stuttering.
This has been the case for years, so it's nothing new. I remember this being a problem almost a decade ago, on an 4th generation iPad with the A6X SoC. Things have improved since then for sure, but those it's probably mostly hardware improvements that's helping.
I'll accept blaming Twitter's horrible performance on its use of React Native Web, but not Tumblr.
So, to me, Tumblr's website is already the main point of access, and these performance problems don't exist on Firefox or Chrome. I'm not talking about server-side response times, I'm talking about the time to render posts on the client. I find that a lot of times, after scrolling, you have to wait a few seconds before you see anything but the blue background that Tumblr has.
So, no, I'm going to pin it on Safari if (even) Firefox can deal with it.
You'll be able to see it take seconds to render at a time. This is true on an M1 Mac, as it is true on an A15 iPhone and M1 iPad.
Safari works amazingly for small websites, but for websites with infinite scrolling like Tumblr and Twitter, it becomes unbearably slow after the first hundred or so posts. Historically, Safari is slow to adopt new web features, and it STILL doesn't have web push notifications (and more).
You can run these same websites on Android Chrome just fine, even on a lower-powered Android phone. I'm not sure if they're using APIs that need to be polyfilled on Safari, or if Safari is just trash.
At this time, I'm convinced that if Apple allowed other browser engines on the App Store, this would not be a problem at all, not that I can test it out anyways.
So, yes, Apple still has a say.
They said, you can do it "if you have the skills" and that "the large majority of humanity does not" have these skills.
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but it's also important to note that not all Robux is equal. There's more information at https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005718246 under section 3.B.
1. Free Hong Kong, revolution of our times
2. Hong Kong people, add oil (basically a statement of encouragement)
3. Five demands, not one less
4. There are no rioters, only tyranny
5. The Hong Kong Police know the law, yet break the law (I haven't seen this one around in many English-speaking circles so I can't really give an accurate translation from the eyes of HKers)
These were basically the slogans used by the protestors back in 2019. Unfortunately, saying any of these is now considered an "act of sedition" by the Hong Kong government, after the passing of the National Security Law last year.
Android has been Linux, and it's even more Linux now than before.
