Well then I'll make my own browser! With blackjack! And hookers!
Oh. Wait...that's just tor-browser.
Hey! Why not add an AI assistant that summarizes each page I visit! It would be awesome 😎. But only if the computation is done off-site. I don't want to bother my computer cpu too much.....this page depicts 7 consenting adults engaging in what would otherwise be described as an Australian cum slut gangbang clusterfuck with a 3 finger twist and large bottle of rum up the asshole....
Joe! Joe! Come here quick! Remember the dude from yesterday? Yeah, cum slut cluster fuck? Exactly! Look he's asking for it again! I think he likes it. Why don't we send his information to the appropriate authorities?
....ring ring! Yes? Is this the guy who really likes Australia cluster fuck videos? Ehhh, why would you ask such a thing?...well I am the authority on this topic! I wrote the book, see?...and another page ..and another page... Yeah, it's mostly photos of me and my 6 male friends. Oh! Ah!... Can I help you? Well I didn't bring my 6 friends with me but do you have sex guy friends? Oh I said sex, didn't I. Yeah I do have sex friends! Wait a minute, did Mozilla Firefox sent you after they shared my most intimate searches thru the NSA AI servers? Gosh darn it! Well it doesn't matter, what's done is done. I guess I'll just take my pants off, go ahead and get more comfortable too. You want anything to eat while we wait here for my six friends? One of them is really fat, is that okay? I mean he's really, like you know, morbidly obese sort of fat. I hope you are okay with his girth.
And Soo the user had a great time thanks to Mozilla Firefox. The end! She was never found until the x-ray, when her body was found biologically fused and bonded to the user's friend's body along with two other doctors from previous visits. It was pretty bad. It was big news in Australia 🦘.
I gotta go sleep 💤😴💤💤.
Google chrome, unfortunately is still very alive and well.
You can still block ads system-wide with adguard for desktop...Not sure if it works on linux. But there's also nextDNS, very easy to set up when you use yogaDNS. Or nextDNS's own app to do it.
You need to pay for those things, but paying for adblockers is better than paying each individual website you go to to not have ads
oh well time to get back into the gemini protocol
Yeah, I moved to librewolf
I've seen predictions of Firefox's downfall for decades. Still waiting for it to happen.
It's really easy to see the headlines saying things like "Firefox is tracking it's users and violating their privacy!!!" And panic. But digging into the latest "scandal" (the PPA), it seems like Firefox is behaving pretty reasonably.
One of the main criticisms is that it's opt-out instead of opt-in. Which... I kind of agree with Mozilla on. 99% of users aren't going to know or care about this, and the 1% that do are the kind of people who probably would have extensions to disable it or just use some obscure ultra-private browser instead.
I don't fault NOYB for bringing it up either. It's good to have organizations like that keeping an eye out for everyone.
But I also get worried that sometimes communies attack their closest allies for being imperfect harder than enemies actively working against their interests.
I'm really holding out for Ladybird.
Look at these numbers and tell me with a straight face that chrome is dead.
