A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

It makes a lot of sense for someone like him to promote brave tbh
Seeing a lot of criticisms. Is there a better tier list then?
Not of his. This is a known widespread tierlist made by other person (I do not remember if this came from Reddit, a YT video or what, but it is well known)
This is a random screenshot he used in hos video for roughly 2 seconds. This is not his tierlist.
I've looked into it and it's not even his tier list, just one he found online.
Ngl, feel like his tier list is based on usability while avoiding big tech.
Tbh even if this tierlist is not the best or great, it still is "good enough". Plus the most important thing is to get tons of people interested.
I rather have "good enough" tier list that reaches to millions of people, then have a perfect tierlist that only reaches out to less than a dozen people.
Because amongst the millions of people who are interested, thousands of them will do their own research into privacy and dig deeper into it.
Plus right now, the biggest weakness of privacy is the fact that our community is too small to make an impact.
Having someone give this much outreach and influence to attract attention towards privacy is a good thing. (well, as long as their advice are on the positive end of the spectrum, and pewdiepie's advise surely is, even if its not perfect)
Sir, this is 2025, we don't do nuanced opinions here anymore.
No Zen-Browser (though I am not sure when this vid was made), and Pale Moon should be in the "Not ideal for a normal human" at best.
Brave 🤮
I kinda think Floorp is better than waterfox
Floorp is amazing
I'm considering switching to Floorp, I'll need to check of Pewdiepie has his reasons and what those are.
He barely touches on the topic of browsers, it's like 40 second segment, i don't think he even made the tier list.
Superiority complex in the comments.
Ppl focusing on the negative. It's just his subjective list. He doesn't claim to be an expert. Lemmy autism peaking here. More exposure to foss is good guys
That's a good find that famous people are getting into FOSS (should be free as in freedom too). But it's really not a good thing that they spread a non expert speaking to the crowd.
Tier lists are meant to be mainly subjective and pretty relative to the person that made it. In that way Pewdipie could quote experts but in no case should make a tier list based on what he found the last weeks (I didn't fully watched the video so maybe I'm wrong and he made a big disclaimer)
If you watch the video, Felix tells you twice in the same sentence that he uses Arch.
Lemmy had taught me that this means Felix IS an expert on FOSS
How sorry didn't know, so that make him really one of the biggest expert in FOSS 100%
Where's ladybird
Edit - I didn't know about the Transphobia going on there. that is unjustifiable.
I mean ladybird certainly would be lowest tier, considering you first have to compile yourself 😂 also it's pre alpha state...
But it'll be interesting to see how far they've come on 1 year
Ladybird Trattoria? About 10 minutes away from Linus Media Group.
Not sure why you asked but you now have an answer, hope it helps
Still in development
In the trash with the rest of the transphobes
Wait, something happened with ladybird? Or is just a joke?
This is a fairly unbiased writeup
Thx :D That was a good read. I didn't know about that
Neither did I. Wow dead before arrival.
