@[email protected] according to your threat model, of course.

 

Okay, look. Chromium's monopoly is definitely a concern. But Firefox is also not the answer here.

In a way, you are giving Firefox leeway to do as they want since they are the only thing stopping Chromium's monopoly. That's equally wrong.

Use the better, more secure technology, until we have something better. Don't use Firefox because it's not Chromium - that's definitely not healthy.

@[email protected] @[email protected] manifest V2 is spread all over chromium source. There's definitely a way to maintain it but it'll quickly become a hassle especially between Chromium version bumps. In any case, if they said they'll do it that's still better than nothing.

As for uBlock... I don't think there's anything special to Chromium's version of Manifest V2 that they'll need to support. So it should "just work".

 

There's no guarantee @[email protected] will support Manifest V2 after Google drops it in Chromium (which it already did I think?).

If you really want Manifest V2, use @firefox (or a fork) where its being maintained officially.

@[email protected] that makes sense, actually. They should have been more clear about this. Thanks for the link!

And I use Zen, a Firefox/Gecko derivative. I don't particularly like any of the Chromium forks out there including Brave but yeah.

@[email protected] No idea. I don't use Brave. I used to use it before moving to Firefox and then to Zen. It was okay. The crypto crap didn't bother me that much as it was easy to turn off and ignore.

Their privacy policy is really good. Much better than Firefox's: https://brave.com/privacy/browser/

@[email protected] @[email protected] I haven't been able to find anything that bad in their TOS or Privacy Policy: https://brave.com/privacy/browser/

In fact, Brave's privacy policy is miles better than Firefox's, and I don't even like Brave that much.

Your suggestion to turn all that crap off is pointless. Of course you might be able to switch some toggles but the company's policy matters just like you wouldn't trust Google even though they provide even better toggles for "privacy control".

TLDR: no tracking by default

 

Ladies and gentlemen! It's true. Mozilla has finally done it.

Fortunately I have been dailying @zen_browser for the past 2 months and I recommend you do the same if you don't want to migrate to ChromeTech. Otherwise use @[email protected].

The fox is dead. Long live the fox.

@[email protected] not sure what you mean. Your notes are stored encrypted on the device even if you don't create an account.

 

Notesnook v3.0.27 is out with an all new command palette, quick open, support for pasting markdown directly, and much more!

Let's take a look at all that: 👇

@[email protected] its possible to share read-only notes as Monographs. For editing currently the only possible way is to share the same account.

 

Choose your warrior:

All of these are open source, private and encrypted. Of course, Notesnook is still the best 😉
