jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Awesome!

Still find it crazy when one company decides the internet’s fate and seems to act like they own the internet, simply because they have a huge ass market for the browser, search engine & site crawler.

Monopolies and lobby group do it all the time. Make laws to help their company stay in the lead.

This is in politics and effects all our lives.

Like when YouTube introduced ads and everyone moved to Vimeo?

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Oh, didn’t even know that was a thing.

Thanks for pointing it out!

Gnubyte ,

Just imagined over my pixel tablet. If I wasn’t using Android auto (car connection) on my phone I’d shit can that too.

They also raised the price on YouTube premium right after I got my annual subscriptions. Fuck that man. Once these companies got you locked in they take you for a ride.

Greed is the fall of our best inventions.

We will keep using adblocks and finding new ways to keep things open.

Never left. Never would leave. Chrome was always a trap.

Fuck it, I’m moving over to Seamonkey.

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Awesome.

Didn’t know about it, thanks for the info!

“SeaMonkey is a free and open-source Internet suite. It is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite, based on the same source code, which itself grew out of Netscape Communicator and formed the base of Netscape 6 and Netscape 7. SeaMonkey was created in 2005 after the Mozilla Foundation decided to focus on the standalone projects Firefox and Thunderbird. The development of SeaMonkey is community-driven, in contrast to the Mozilla Application Suite, which until its last released version was governed by the Mozilla Foundation. The new project-leading group is called the SeaMonkey Council. Compared to Firefox, the SeaMonkey web browser keeps the more traditional-looking interface of Netscape and the Mozilla Application Suite, most notably the XUL architecture. This allows the user to extend SeaMonkey by modifying add-ons for Thunderbird or the add-ons that were formerly compatible with Firefox before the latter switched to WebExtensions.”

cefditoren ,

Sorry I didn’t make it ez enough for your kind … It would be great if 1 out of 5 mother fuckers didn’t post a random meme/pic about Firefox good, chrome bad.

BarterClub ,

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Google and every other corporation that wants to be your Daddy or your slave master can go fuck off and die. Personally I have been done for a while now, when Google shit all over the world by buying YouTube then making everyone sign in to Google plus to use, it was it for me, I have never actually signed in to YouTube since, and have tried to avoid giving Google any traffic to this day.

I think we don’t have a choice anymore but to start making a new society built from scratch for the people. We can start by using the vast amount of tools and resources built by corporations to enslave us against the same corporations doing the enslaving.

I don’t know if the human population can actually collectively do what’s necessary to save themselves or more then likely their children from a life of permanent servitude these corporations want.

But why not give it a try, it’s better then realizing you were a feckless idiot that did absolutely nothing while you’re waiting for a corporation to cut off your life support because you’re no longer profitable.

Politicians will allow corporations to enslave everyone but that magical 1%, they’re not vary bright, they don’t study history, all they study is fleecing the public, when the shit finally hits the fan the leaders these politicians make will hang them first.

And if some corporation don’t like what I’m saying, come at me bitch, I’ve got curable cancer, I’ve been told I got ten years left, so have fun then die (I’m on a Tennessee Republican Death Panel right now.) So lets see how much “fun” I can make for corporations in ten years.

KalyterosAioni ,

I’m with you brother. Sorry to hear about that last section of your comment, but here’s to making the most of the next ten years 🥂

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Great!

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Awesome!

We can all join together along class lines and start to change things we have in common in the local govt.

Engywuck ,

Spoiler: won’t happen. And I’m glad it won’t.

@flatplutosociety@lemmy.world avatar

Why are you glad it won’t?

Engywuck ,

I sincerely want to see Mozilla burn.

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Not if you give up before even trying.

Things are not given, they have to be taken and fought for.

Engywuck , (edited )

I’ve been on (and an advocate for) FF for almost 20 years. I don’t need anybody to tell me what’s wrong with it AND with Mozilla (a lot, actually, that’s why I jumped ship). And no, it’s not Google to blame for FF failure, only Mozilla. They need to go, and in my own small way I will do anything in my power to contribute to their disappearance. They’re not doing anything of value anyway, they’re just grabbing money from naive donors and Google (oh, the irony) and wasting it on useless crap.

Don’t even bother to reply. This is my last comment in this thread and I’m unwilling to debate.

Bye.

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Thanks for the input!

Peace.

If they didn’t already, they probably never will.
