Changing your search engine doesn't stop Google from controlling 80% of Mozilla's revenue or almost the entirety of the rest of the browser space

I just don't like that we're relying on the goodwill (or need for token "competition" to try to avoid antitrust) of Google for Mozilla to stick around, an ad company shouldn't be de facto controlling almost every single browser

Every single one of your upvotes on lemmy is already public due to how the protocol works, it's just currently obscured by a bit of work to get them (have to run your own instance, assuming there already isn't some online tool to easily look them up)

Making them publicly and easily visible would only remove the illusion of privacy we currently have, not actually make your upvote logs less secured in any way

I'll keep that in mind for the next time I need to run a DNS server on a Pentium II system
