Sheesh, Mozilla has really lost their way. Putting ads in the search bar? We already have a search engine that does that, we don't need two running at the same time.

Once Mozilla fully enshittifies, what else is there? Are we without hope?

I mostly use #Brave now (with the shit turned off) because #Firefox was degrading in performance and stability, and became unusable on my cheap mobile. For now that's ok.

That #Mozilla are doing this is very sad. I am though hopeful better days are coming, with new ecosystems based on #p2p that will bypass the enclosure and unleash the next generation of openeness & creativity.

I'm literally working on a demo to publish and browse websites on #Autonomi, so it's not just work thinking.

I'm trying to figure out the best browser combination for my needs. Generally, Firefox covers almost everything I need, but it's slow on Android and drains a lot of battery. I've tried Vivaldi, Chrome, and Brave. Of these, only Brave has the features I need, like full history sync (not just typed URLs), and the ability to send tabs to other devices. However, with its focus on crypto and AI, it seems too hype-driven for me. Also, none of them work on FreeBSD without using a Linux jail.

Any suggestions?

Someone else's mentions maybe aren't the place to put this, so I'll put it in my own timeline, where I get to say whatever TF I want:

Czeka nas zmiana w sposobie wyszukiwania informacji? Brave właśnie uruchomił moduł AI (interaktywnie.com) Polish

Skoncentrowana na prywatności wyszukiwarka Brave ogłosiła, że zmodernizuje swój system wyszukiwania tak, by zwracał odpowiedzi oparte na sztucznej inteligencji. Nowa funkcja jest dostępna dla użytkowników na całym świecie.

Yesterday afternoon, I saw all the extra stuff they added to the sculpture in the esplanade during the 15 hours since I'd seen it last. It's very nice, but my lament is that for Pixar, they often focus on the same several films. I appreciate that they've added a few more to this celebration, like and and , 1/2

@aldi80s@mastodon.social avatar

browser failed again. I don't know why is that issue so singular with cdrom.tokyo site that becomes blank and I'm forced to delete all data from Vivaldi to make the site back online. (even I have to re-log in every site and make new passwords for each accounts.
Happened the same with the other apps as and Dissenter before. Is that because of cdrom.tokyo?
I don't get.

And now, the site is working so slow... is that me or the server?

Help me...

I'm a web perf nerd, so I install every browser I can find and run all the benchmarks on https://browserbench.org on a regular basis.

I notice that (on Windows 11) Firefox is much better at Speedometer 3.0 than it was on 2.0.

It's scoring as well as Chrome most of the time, and outperforms Opera and Edge handily.

It still sucks at Jetpack 2.1 and MotionMark 1.3 though.

@Vivaldi is coming out on top right now!

Sad to say that Vivaldi's PWA support is non-existent. I guess I'll have to stick with Brave.

⚠️ PSA: If you are using the ModHeader extension for #Chrome, #Brave or #Edge, uninstall it immediately! It has become spyware, tracks website visits and injects advertisement into websites.

Fingerprinting-Testseiten suggerieren oft, dass man eindeutig erkennbar ist. Das ist allerdings nicht entscheidend, sondern ob man über Surf-Sessions hinweg wiedererkennbar/verfolgbar ist. Der Tor-Browser, Mull oder auch Brave schneiden hierbei gut ab. Am Ende gilt aber auch: Lasst euch nicht verrückt machen. 😉

Ora su #iPhone è possibile scegliere il browser di default grazie a un nuovo pop-up a schermo. #Brave :brave: e #Firefox :firefox: hanno visto un netto incremento nell’uso dei loro software.
Un portavoce di Firefox ha detto che, a seguito del #DMA e dell’aggiornamento a iOS 17.4, il browser ha registrato un incremento del 50% in Germania e del 30% in Francia.

Stop using Brave Browser

The Brave web browser has carved out a niche over the past few years as an alternative to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and other mainstream web browsers. Some of that has come from its marketing as a privacy-preserving web browser, and it has also been repeatedly evangelized by cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

Your thoughts on this?

In private search we only have Brave and Duck Duck Go the later have been caught selling data but this seems shady especially number 2 and number 3 😬

Starting to question brave and some of their motives.

  1. Support private, independent search
  2. See search results ad-free
  3. Get a cleaner view on all results pages

    "It’s worth noting that #Firefox is the only mainstream browser built on an independent, #opensource browser engine whose roots don’t go back to Apple’s #WebKit engine. Google based its Blink engine on WebKit, and Blink powers both #Chrome and #Chromium, the open-source browser upon which most other modern browsers are built, including #Opera, #Brave, and Microsoft #Edge."

    Brave browser: forte aumento delle installazioni dopo l'aggiornamento DMA di iOS nell'UE

    Brave ha registrato un forte aumento degli utenti che installano il suo browser Brave incentrato sulla privacy sugli iPhone dopo che Apple ha introdotto modifiche per aderire alla nuova legge europea sui mercati digitali.

    @informapirata @informatica questo risultato dovrebbe spingere i programmatori di ad implementare finalmente un motore di rendering diverso da quello di safari mobile. Cosi finalmente potremmo vedere come vanno i browser alternativi sotto ios. Peccato per potrebbe essere un incenttvo. Ma il ceo taglia taglia, pensa ai soldi e non a migliorare il prodotto. Ultimamente chi ha le risorse non possiede idee innovative, chi ha le idee innovative non possiede le risorse.

    Ultimamente sto ricominciando ad usare #Brave invece di #Firefox come browser principale. Lo faccio un po' a malincuore, perché so bene che il browser di #Mozilla rappresenta l'ultima speranza per un web aperto e indipendente. Tuttavia come @filippodb ha spesso sottolineato, Brave è effettivamente più efficiente in termini di risorse e la mia esperienza di questi giorni gli dà ragione. La mia batteria si consuma molto più lentamente quando uso Brave.

    Rappel : À partir du mois de juin, Chrome (et ses dérivés) vont fortement se merdifier.
    En effet va entrer en vigeur le ManifestV3 de Google.

    Conséquences:

    • les bloqueurs de publicité seront limités à 30 000 règles, pas plus.
    • ils ne pourront plus se mettre à jour quotidiennement, mais seulement lors de publication de nouvelles versions des extensions (que Google met parfois jusqu'à 3 semaines à valider)
