On mobile, I may actually be using libredirect and just misremembered the name, or I might be due for an update. Thanks

There’s already a number of countries trying implement news site link taxes, I wouldn’t be surprised if they just gave up and decided to cut that out.

Sometimes it’s just because the lawyers who wrote TOS grab as much leeway as they can, even if it’s just to make a translation.

The reason people are talking about this in such a negative light is because it did not occur in a vaccum. Nothing but mildly and moderately bad news over a swath of time adds up quickly. If there was no other bad news it could be written off, but this bad news bears the wight of all the other bad news as well.

Servo in future, LibreWolf for now imo

Doubling down on our core products, like Firefox

Expected them to double down on Google tracking, AI, and pocket while laying off Firefox engineers. Still do, but maybe slightly slower now.

Except profile migration doesn’t exist in AT. They may make it in the future but it doesn’t exist at all right now.

Furry porn, as mentioned above, seems to be the selling point

Half the people here were like “yup that’s why I didn’t join” and the other half just secretly joined upon hearing that.

Called palemoon, except version freeze is much older.

Anything else will goatsy your computer to all forms of zero days.

Quick tool to summarize a page, proofread, or compare it to another source. Still needs a functioning human brain to separate the wheat from the chaff so to speak, but I could see a LLM (especially local) being useful in some ways.

I’m sure there are disabilities or unique use cases that could increase it’s usefulness, especially once they improve more.

They might buy them though to inflate the number of protected trees. I’m not saying they are, just providing a potential reason for such a large number

The big turning point came in 2018 when I signed a legally binding commitment to ensure that Ecosia could never be sold and that 100% of our profits would always go to the planet. Today, your searches enable us to work with partners to plant and protect 1,250 species of trees across 95,000 locations globally.

Keywords plant and protect. Basically a papermill can plant trees to harvest 20 years later and in the meantime sell carbon offsets for 19 years then harvest and replant.

Can’t say for sure they’re doing it, but from what I hear just about every tree is eligible for a “carbon offset” and some companies abuse it by saying “this is our tree” as long as it’s not cut down within x months and use it as a carbon offset or a “protected tree.”

Brave may be persona non Grata around here, but props to them for actually crawling the web. Just about every other private search engine uses APIs from Google/Bing or scrapes/proxies results from other search engines.

On Android, Mozilla points out it can’t import browser data

You mean Android was built from the ground up to be a secure platform and not allow apps to meddle with other app’s data?

This is a security and privacy feature that’s very useful and applies to all apps.

Didn’t Mozilla just do a big roadmap talking about what they plan to do in the future and it was basically all AI and Activism with no mention of Firefox?

I hope to see Firefox grow, but who knows. Especially if antitrust actions or a continued drop in Firefox usage cuts off the Google money and makes Mozilla go poof.

But of course at least Gecko is Foss so it can’t disappear entirely if the community doesn’t let it.

In the olden days they had 100% support for extentions
