Browsers I tried yesterday (on Linux):
- Zen: neat, but the UI is too different for my taste
- Floorp: also neat, but features I don't use
- Waterfox: sweet spot for me
Librewolf and Waterfox seem pretty similar on paper. I went with Waterfox cuz idk. So far, Waterfox seems to be a drop-in replacement. I haven't noticed any problems with websites and haven't run into any bugs.
One note about Waterfox is that I would have liked if it was added to the official Arch Linux repos. I installed fine with the AUR, but still.
Bonus: Waterfox is available on Android! π₯³

Isn't one of the point of the phenom of enshifitication that it's near ubiquitous? The reason it can continue is because it reached a critical mass, leaving us few workable alternatives, like a symptom of monopolization. I'd wager some companies feel like they won't survive if they don't keep up, not sure if that assessment is true but I bet many think it is.
Enshitified product exists - > good alternative arises to meet demand - > good alternative becomes popular - > good alternative either becomes enshitified to maximize profits or is purchased by owner of original enshitified product.
The capitalist way.

This thread got removed where it listed all of the things reddit collects, but we shouldn't get complacent here either. We need to check our instances.
Some of the instances do this here. This is not a 100% haven. Itβs great and waaaay better, but still, check into your instances, Lemmies.
The mozilla thing seems to be mostly bad PR, but yeah...
They took out the clause in their policy about not selling user data.
It's pretty obvious what follows that
https://youtu.be/-8bTquKjzos That sums it up. The definition of what counts as "selling data" changed...

Iβm trying out 3 different browsers atm and I think Iβll just keep all 3 and cycle though or use at different privacy settings. I will miss Firefox and not having to think about my browser. Canβt wait to watch all 3 go to shit as well.
Don't hold out on us! Which browsers?
Librewolf seems exactly the same, but it breaks Lemmy for me. It's probably a setting I didn't know to turn off.
It's likely the resist fingerprinting option. It breaks many websites or those that use bot checking thing.
I'll try some testing around those features.
What happened to proton?
Encountered someone from local instances in the wild.
The creator is pro-Trump and they also recently stopped posting updates to Mastodon citing "they don't have the resources" for it, or something like that.
Correct me if I have missed something; I've got no skin in the game, I just see the drama a lot.
Found this the other day, and it sorta makes me agree that this is getting a little blown up
And the top comment explains why it indeed is such s big issue. This is incomprehensibly incompetent.
There are few more services you need to be able to trust beyond your mail and VPN. If you have still trust then that's ok, don't get me wrong - but stating "just because the CEO spewed s bit of pro trump shit this got blown out of proportion" doesn't acknowledge the propositions at all.
