I can absolutely understand that point of view and even agree to an extent.
However, as a counterpoint: creative people being able to support themselves with their work means they can focus on their art instead of it just being a side hobby to their money making job
omg it's network chuck!
for real though.. as an American I would love if we were 11 years behind the EU in lots of other areas
people usually look where they are going
I've barely used mine. I just didn't think through what use case I'd have for it and bought it since it was cool. I don't travel much and I usually only want to game when I'm home anyway, where I use my main gaming rig. I thought I would use the deck in bed, but I find that it's not as enticing as I thought it would be
been meaning try and sell it while it's still got some value tbh, it's basically brand new even though I've had it for nearly a year
I wish I did this. I went to check if there were any signs of the protest and couldn't help but contribute to one of the "fuck spez" signs
I then realized that place already felt kind of overdone last time they did it, this time it just feels completely meaningless
Every single one of these Brave "scandals" are so irrelevant and meaningless. I was hoping the reddit hive mind wouldn't be brought over to lemmy, but here we are.
This article, especially after the update from Brave, seems like a huge nothing-burger. Just another excuse for the Firefox Fanatics crowd to rag on Brave and circlejerk each other about how good Firefox is.
The article isn't even about Brave Browser, and it has nothing to do with user data. The website owner is mad that Brave Search is crawling their site and using data in their "Summarizer" feature. I thought Firefox users were supposed to be against the Google internet monopoly, but apparently when it comes to one of the only companies with their own independent and actually decent search engine, they don't seem to care anymore because of stupid "Firefox good brave bad" browser wars nonsense.
is this thread really 2 years old?
tech people get annoyed at the weirdest shit...
What's wrong with Firefox?!
I will get downvotes for this, but you asked:
Firefox is slow and glitchy, and lots of websites break or just perform worse than chrome.
Firefox used to have ~30% market share around 13 years ago, when it was better than the competition. The reason it's dropped so significantly is because better options came along (chrome)
I understand the arguments about Google controlling the internet through chromium. I would love for Firefox to actually be the best browser, but it's not.
And since Firefox users ignore these citisisms and act like it's the best browser ever, there is not enough pressure for Firefox to actually fix these issues, since their users act like it's already the best thing available and perfect in every way. It's very similar to why Linux doesn't catch on.
I have tried just about every browser available. I will use the one that performs the best and has the best features. Currently that is Brave, which is a great browser, but I would absolutely jump to Firefox if things changed and it became the best performing option.
Just don't use a VPN on their site or they will lock your account for days pending review for "suspicious activity"
I stopped using them after that
this right here. I didn't experience any bugs at all on pc but the game is just bad, the world doesn't feel lived in, and the gameplay is just meh (some guns were fun though)
