i see the downvote but you got to admit companies tend to follow whatever apple decides to do. Remember how we used to have headphone jack before apple removed it ? remember the numerous android phone with a big notch (pixel was the winner here) after iphone switched to faceid ? Remember the focus on privacy from google after apple made it’s pop up about not being tracked between apps ? I probably forgot others, but whatever succesfull (or not) apple does, other companies follow. always has been.

M1 arm macbook have been a quite a hit for apple, very successfull. Guess what, it probably pushed competition to make their own, but they couldn’t because who the hell can make their own processor and then force almost the entire developper on their operating system to write software for it ? Even if we get arm windows laptop, good luck getting most of your software to run on arm. You’d be lucky to even get big ones like photoshop. everything will be run through translation layer, will sucks performance and battery.

Yeah, I’m myself a Firefox user but it doesn’t mean i can’t criticize when Mozilla does something wrong. In business you’re responsible to who you associate with, that’s business 101. i fail to understand why people in here disagree but to be honest I’m not sure it’s the business elite hanging around here considering the amount of comment I see promoting communism/ socialism and how bad capitalism is 😭

Europe already did. That’s just usa kind of catching up, if it ever success.

What you mean? I’m saying Mozilla associating with them is bad rep, whatever if they backpack a month later.

the fact you got 11 upvote and 6 downvote is interesting to say the least. where are all the android naysayer people at ? 😂 time to downvote.

i switched to android a few month ago, still can’t find a good enough pdf viewer, modern ebook reader, reminder app that is modern and syncs with whatever service i want (not only google). i mean stuffs that is preinstalled on every iphone and available for free. and people wonder why others buy iphone ?

People buy iphone despite being it so locked down, expensive, hard to repair, having a thunderbolt port. because the alternative is even worst.

but you can get an Android phone with similar specs for the same or less of a cost.

i did the mistake of buying chinese xiaomi 12 phone, 100$ less than iphone mini but god this sucks ass. It’s awesome for the kid playing video game because of its processor watercooled whatever the fck but people who need simple phone to do work quick ? fck that.

i mean we can poke at gnome, kde and every other linux desktop environment as much as we want. none is very good, they all have issue. that’s why people who care pay big money for mac and then are called sheep by those who don’t.

it’s saying people will stop using free social media like twitter, facebook, youtube, etc… because of spammy bot generated content. Less people, less reason for youtuber to upload helpfull video or people providing educative content on other platform.

trust takes years to build but it can evaporate in seconds. mozilla associating with these people is very bad rep, won’t help them develop further.

Difference between macos and gnome is that apple has invested lot of money and extremely talented people, whereas gnome has much less people. I don’t mind not having customisation when everything is good enough, but not the case in gnome at all.

Like the thing in finder where you type letter and instead of showing file starting with the letter it starts a recursive search. Or the giant top bar that has a barbone menu and serves almost no purpose. Apple put the app menu in there, makes sense.

Im not sure it’s completely true, it feels like throwing the baby with the bath water. Yes you get rid of YouTube, Reddit and other social media infested in ai generated content but there is value on those website. I looked at YouTube yesterday on how to do placoplâtre, just today I read interesting article on sh.itjust.works and sometime ago had interesting conversation here, and so on. If tomorrow I’m viewing computer generated article, talking with bots and viewing bot generated video i might as well quit internet completely and live like in the 90’s. It would be a setback, not improvement.

Until it’s you who get wrongfully put in jail, but I get the point. I think everyone agree it’s better now and also they should do everything they can to speed up the release of innocent people.

It’s working.

Isn’t that market manipulation and anyway completely illegal to force buy back stock at 0$ ?? If I force you to sell me your house for 0$, whatever if it’s in a contract, that would be illegal in Europe. 1€ would be fine tho.

Just as we stopped beating our chest with fist when angry, humans can understand pattern and forcefully prevent them.

Ever read 1984 ? War is peace, etc. I didn’t mean to say Microsoft care about privacy, I meant they pretend.

Yes, and I’ll add that 30% is nothing is still nothing. Firefox and brave share on iOS are very small. This is great for customer choice but until there is real chromium and blink browser available there won’t be any real intensive to switch. Firefox already said they are not that interested, now it’s up to Google and then we can maybe have brave and other chromium clone.

What you mean? No one is asking for removal of default browser, i say it should be possible to uninstall it. That’s different.

Edge is bloated as fuck, just opening it for the first time prompts you with a 3 step dialog you can’t close about how Microsoft value your privacy and which setting you should choose.
