The Chrome team says they're not going to pursue Web Integrity but...

it is piloting a new Android WebView Media Integrity API that’s “narrowly scoped, and only targets WebViews embedded in apps.”

They say its because the team "heard your feedback." I'm sure that's true, and I can wildly speculate that all the current anti-trust attention was a factor too.

I'd like to believe that enough of us actually stopped using chrome and switched to Firefox the day they made that announcement that swayed them... But in reality I'm sure it was just the bad press and they're going to try to find a different more sneaky way to do the same shit.

I've been using Firefox since it was Mozilla.

They're just starting it smaller scale. Within a year it'll be pushed out to everyone broadly.

I replaced gmail with protonmail and everything else with nextcloud. Couldn't go back.

After a lot of privacy switching I finally did try NextCloud, but I couldn't get port forwarding to work on my Internet and gave up... For now

You are probably behind a nat. I contacted my isp and they disabled it, since it works perfectly!

What do you mean nat? For me there is an app with an option (apparently no other way) and it didn't worj

Compare what your router reports as ip and compare what your public ip is. If its not the same then that means you are behind a nat(?)(or something else) and you can't port forward now.

Both leaving reddit and leaving google s.e. were two things that I thought would be harder than they were.
