Your secret agenda of getting me to visit BYOB more often is working, drat you! :D

Also!! I just remembered to ask: have you read the sci-fi book Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky? It's about humans making a virus that will make a species become more humanlike/smarter/able to communicate, and then screwing up while deploying it so it hits spiders instead of apes, and then it follows the extremely long-view of spiders going from primitive to something more. While it's mostly spider-centric, ants show up in some huge and (afaik) accurate ways and I think you'd enjoy reading it!
I did, someone (maybe you) said it was good, and it was!

Oh please report back if you do, I'm very curious about this but I'm concerned about ad walls or in game shop stuff because I'm traumatized in terms of apps and I can't be bothered to check myself because I'm a lazy gently caress
Same, I'm currently trying adguard on android, and I have a raspberry pi I'm gonna pi-hole my network with this weekend.

I already have decent blocking on my openwrt router and browsers, but this stuff is supposed to be perfect.

On 2nd thought that wouldn't let me test it for you, would just work on my end.
