Just ban the fucking shit is what I say.

China can make quality products but those aren’t sold on Temu.

Bought a pair of Rab Torque pants on my way to meet up with a buddy before a Roadtrip.

That’s around 5 years ago and those pants are still going strong after hours on the climbing wall, at crags, on the trail, an ice climbing trip, shoveling snow, on stroller walks etc. only real damage is a hole from snagging on a crampon that’s since been fixed.

I like these pants.

Only thing I’ve been missing while trying Librewolf for a bit is ironically enough, saved cookies on pages I sign into to keep me signed in.

Other than this it feels like a faster Firefox.

I’ve seen there’s ways to keep you singed in on Librewolf too, but I keep wonder If there’s actually a point in using it instead of Firefox if I’m saving (some) cookies anyways.

Thoughts?

No problem, fire away!

Probably, but I’m just exploring alternatives.

Looked i to that one too. Ended up just using Safari.

Not perfect, but at least it’s not a third party on top of Apple.

I’m coming to the conclusion that I should just try LibreWolf and see how I like that compared to Firefox.

Har du noe dypere grunnlag eller noe mer informasjon å komme med å jeg selv kan ta den avgjørelsen?

[–] Parptarf@lemm.ee 1 points 19 hours ago

That’s exactly what I thought and granted so did a lot of people too.

Not the end of the world, but made me want to look at alternatives at least.

You’re right, I know nothing about IP law.

However, I came here to ask for information about using a chromium browser, not a discussion about Mozilla’s choice of words in a TOS.

I dunno how it affects forks, but considering Google’s TOS doesn’t seem to affect other Chromium project that much. I doubt it’s a big of a deal for FF forks.

Hel, I’m 99% sure I’m overreacting about Mozilla’s working to begin with. It just made me want to explore alternatives.

Here’s the quote I’m talking about(it has since been changed)

When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

Here’s the exact phrase they used before changing it after people got pissed about it:

When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

The new choice of words is a a lot better. But it makes me want to at least explore alternatives.

I’m looking into Firefox alternatives as I wanna see what’s available. Being Norwegian, Vivaldi seems like a good choice to replace Firefox on desktop and Safari on iOS. Tried it for a night and it works pretty good. I do however have reservations about it being based on Chromium.

How much power does Google actually have over Vivaldi? And would it actually matter for my quest for degoogling myself?

In case anyone’s wondering. I’m also looking into LibreWolf.

Edit: Rewrote the start as people got too hung up on Firefox.
