This is terrible news. I also have a keyboard-centric workflow and also make heavy use of keyword bookmarks. I too use custom bookmarklets containing JavaScript that I can invoke with a few key strokes for multiple uses including:
1: Auto-expanding all nested Reddit comments on posts with many comments on desktop.
2: Downloading videos from certain web sites.
3: Playing a play-by-forum online board game.
4: Helping expand and aid in downloading images from a certain host.
5: Sending X (Twitter) URLs in the browser bar to Nitter or TWStalker.
And all these without touching the mouse!

Divide and conquer. Non state-actors and special interest have a far easier time attacking a hundred small entities than one big one. Because people have much less bandwidth to track all this shit than it is to spread it around. See ALEC and the strategy behind state rights.
In the end this is about economic power. The only way to curb it is through a democratic government. Lemmy servers too can be bought and sold and the communities captured that grew on them.
