I like at least one of Nico’s other videos, and while he makes technically correct points…

“Nothing changed”

If this is true, then Mozilla can delete their entire Firefox license. Nothing will change a second time.

I also saw this comment which I agree with:

The Linux Experiment is probably being too harsh, for this issue, but leaving Mozilla for understandable reasons (enough is enough etc), whereas you are giving them too much benefit of the doubt.

When it comes to personal privacy and sovereignty, nobody should ever give a legal document the benefit of the doubt. I think it is rational and healthy to search for a worst possible scenario in order to know what a company can do with a document you have accepted.

I see what you did there

What are the chances that your account then gets marked as “insecure” unless Google can effectively figure out who you are?

It’s been a while since I watched a documentary about him, but apparently it was both… Either way, incredibly horrid treatment.

I blame 4chan’s constant harassment of the man for his speech and early death. They invaded his live streams and gaslit him into believing, among other things, that he was in a relationship with someone else. Collectively, I think they’re responsible for his suicide.

the vast majority of the comments just read what the op wrote and not what was said

What part of my post isn’t something he said

Just keep in mind: your upvotes on Lemmy are visible to anybody who runs a Lemmy instance.

God help us if Elon Musk figures out how to run one.

ETA: I mention this because the current government wants to find anyone who does this.

The [unelected president] moaned on his platform that some Reddit users on the subreddit r/WhitePeopleTwitter had broken the law after they allegedly revealed the identities of his so-called DOGE goon squad.

Is this for human beings, or is it for Google to show their investors to prove that AI is totally going to revolutionize something eventually?

Screw Google either way, I’m not going to use their search engine either way, but this doesn’t feel like a product they are genuinely committed to releasing. Maybe I’m wrong, and in that case, screw them even more.

Cromite on Android checks both those boxes. Ad blocking isn’t great, but the developer isn’t Brave.

Firefox + uBlock Origin might be better if you haven’t tried that specific extension before. It works more than okay for me, but I realize YMMV and that’s especially true for non-flagships

Discord knows everything about its users. Why don’t its users get to know about the future of their app

Eich is out of touch with reality and so are you

I think this is just a CEO likening personal opinions to racial oppression. The example he chose might be a little ironic too.

Ungoogled Chromium does a really good job of taking Google out of Chrome, so far less skeezy. None of that cryptocurrency stuff either.

For a native English speaker who understands everything he wrote: you’re 100% correct. It is a core dump.

He was discovered by 4channers and harassed up until his death. His choice of language, and mental deterioration, were due to them in no small part

It’s a bit worse than that, the term started with a slur attached

Glowie, also known as a Glown*****, is a slang term popular on 4chan’s /pol/ board used in reference to CIA or other governmental agents posing as ordinary 4chan users…

Has been since he got ousted from Mozilla for funding anti-gay stuff

If I’m reading their financial records correctly, the year he left Mozilla was the year he was paid the most, even though he didn’t stick around for most of it. So this retelling of history is, at best, incomplete…
