Chromium is fine in and of itself, it's Chrome itself and other commercial variants that come loaded with spyware. But yeah I'll still use my trusty Firefox.
how about manifest version 3 ? do u think that is fine ?
Wasn't aware of this and will have to do a bit more research. I hope it won't interfere as much in firefox with my current extensions and privacy but we'll see. However this what are we supposed to use? Just default back to curl or wget? It's not like there is an abundance other fully-fledged (using their own engine) open source browsers
we did this to our selves. we tolerated the use of corporate-made chromium and now we pay the price. there are open source forks of firefox, but a new open source software is needed to ensure browser diversification. i am no expert of browsers but this is the word i hear around all the time.
Definitely agree that more browser diversification is needed beyond forks of existing projects.
Browsers nowadays almost start to approach the complexity of an OS with sandboxed tabs, JavaScript engine and plugin engine. We should've never allowed google to get so much into our lives.
Edit: forgot the HTML and CSS interpreters and then there's how it all interacts, and there might still be parts that I'm not familiar with.
It seems like it's just some problem on your end.
Thanks for testing! For some reason, re-pasting the very same link to a different portion of the message cleared up the problem. Weird, but.. okay.
So maybe it was just a glitch, and maybe I was just being paranoid, but the more the FV competes with Reddit, the more I wouldn't be surprised if Reddit tries to bork with links directing to the FV.
Works fine for me.
Some of the servers have been getting overloaded, could it just be bad timing?
