Never said they didn’t, but Firefox does as well and the duality of criteria is astonishing.

Urr durr Brave bad Firefox perfect and always good.

I’m not doing a whataboutism, I’m just saying that when a state big enough wants to exert it’s influence all over the world, it’s hard to curb that.

Probably when they also do something about US meddling… which is never.

You don’t get it. Only what they find funny is funny and only what they think is biggoted is actually biggoted.

Any other world view other than theirs is extremely inferior to the point of being an insult to exist.

Welp, by the same logic, I guess social justice ain’t real justice.

its far better to use a browser which was made from ground up to support user privacy and features rather then patching a browser which was made to compromises their user privacy

Unfortunately we don’t have that yet, since Librewolf is a fork of Firefox as well.

Also, if I had to guess by the number of forks, Gecko is way harder to fork than Chromium.

Yes… But they can modify it like they did when they suppressed Manifest V3 and like they will for the new web drm.

What if I told you… this isn’t a Google product?

Idk, I use gnome with pop shell tiling and Firefox is the only program that does it.

I’m also tired of Firefox’s bullshit pushing sponsored websites and Pocket and (before) injecting an extension to everyone to sponsor Mr. Robot.

But I don’t see you complaining about that.

I don’t see why making money needs to be at all a part of using a piece of software.

It doesn’t…?

When you install Brave the crypto is opt-in, and to hide it permanently is literally 2 clicks.

I want to like Firefox, both as normal user and as web developer, but something about it keeps bugging me. The UI feels sluggish, sites seem to be slightly less performant, and I can’t seem to get used to it.

I feel the exact same. I use linux with a tiling window manager and when I change format, Firefox just starts twitching like it’s trying to give me an epileptic seizure while chromium browsers do it just fine.

Also, sometime ago I tried to compare Chrome (when I still used it) and Firefox side by side with the same extensions opening the same websites and Firefox always took a bit more ram.

Do Macbooks have a matte screen?

And the important thing to understand about american libertarians is they are largely fascists.

So let me get this straight, the people that are always complaining that the government should have less power and interference into people’s lives and want guns for regular people in case the government starts oppressing them are aligned with… checks wikipedia “a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.”?

I don’t agree with the libertarian view and think it’s way too ignorant of the nature of Man and society, but I think that in your ramble of buzzwords you just created a very cute incoherent contradiction.

(Lemmy is full of Communists from what I’ve seen)

Yes, it is. But I always thought those were the ones pearl clutching at edgy jokes, specially nazi related.

Judging by the post votes, either that’s just your opinion and doesn’t reflect on the majority, or lemmy has way more 12 year olds than I thought.

Unfortunately, yes.

Like pretty much everything the CCP does, it’s “rules for thee, but not for me”.

My guess is that they are so used to controlling their people they probably think it should work for everything else.
