ThatsTheSpirit , in Fox news

I’ve unknowingly injected some wild ass noids in my time. Not fun, super dangerous. The real bad time, I luckily got warned before hand. Ended up copping something else cause there were ambulances everywhere and people freaking out all over the street, so yea, something told me not to. Whew.

SnowdenHeroOfOurTime ,

Is this satire?

SwingingTheLamp ,

Here in Wisconsin, we still remember the time when Fox News showed video of the “violent Act 10 protests” with green palm trees in the background.

Palm trees in Wisconsin. In February.

ThatsTheSpirit ,

Literally no. Just a wild ass snippet of life for you.

SnowdenHeroOfOurTime ,

I asked if it was satire because it seemed full of outlandish things. Firstly, wtf is a noid? I’m pretty sure you aren’t talking about the Dominos pizza mascot from the late 80s.

What is 'i copped something else " supposed to mean? Your comment reads like an AI got high AF and wrote something to try to sound cool.

If you end up giving the new home owner a heart attack and they die… does that make you a real murderer by way of a fake murder?

Ultra980 , in The Kbin Experience

The server issues and lack of mobile apps is why I switched back to Lemmy

Roundcat OP ,
@Roundcat@lemmy.ca avatar

I really want to like it too. The UI experience on kbin has been good enough that I have stuck around despite the issues. Plus I like the culture of the site and the users I share it with. It would be a shame to leave it.

But this glitch in particular has really hampered it’s usability for me, and has me thinking if I should have my primary account elsewhere until thinks get more reliable there.

Artemis is still very early, but it's there

Ultra980 ,

Wow, it seems pretty cool

EDIT: why does it have 5 tracking libraries?

This feels ripped out of the playbook of scummy mobile ads or adult sites where trying to click the x leads you to the exact content your were trying to avoid

Is there anything that’s like… not based on chromium… or firefox?

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Safari, if you’re a goddamn normie.

supercheesecake ,
@supercheesecake@aussie.zone avatar

I don’t know if you’re being serious or sarcastic.

I use Safari with Apple’s private relay and various ad blockers and have been quite happy. Are there reasons to be concerned? (other than Apple=bad)

XTornado ,

Concerned no I think… But I am gonna guess you missing on some features and specially extensions but I might be wrong. Except on iOs since there you are missing on that anyway.

supercheesecake ,
@supercheesecake@aussie.zone avatar

Yeah I’m 100% fine with the functionality. I prefer to keep my life simple. Thanks.

RIP_Apollo ,

Well the privacy/security enthusiasts will prefer open source browsers, as these are viewed as more trustworthy.

Safari is closed source (although WebKit, the rendering engine that Safari uses, is open source).

supercheesecake ,
@supercheesecake@aussie.zone avatar

Ok thanks.

I’m willing to sacrifice some FOSS for convenience, as long as it’s reasonable. But in general I’m a strong supporter of open source and publish my own code that way.

JokeDeity ,

I keep seeing people with devout hatred for my beloved Firefox, but none of you say why.

nl_the_shadow ,

I have one thing missing from Firefox that keeps me from permanently switching: vertical tabs. I know there’s ways of hacking it into FF, but nothing sustainable. I know it seems minor, but in Brave/Edge, it just works so damn well.

sideberry

JokeDeity ,

I prefer Tab Center Reborn with CSS edits, but Sideberry absolutely gets the job done, and well.

nl_the_shadow ,

Thanks, I’ll give it a shot.

SnowdenHeroOfOurTime ,

There are multiple extensions that do this in FF.

nl_the_shadow ,

But those leave the horizontal tabs as they are. Such a waste of space with wide screen monitors being the norm.

moody ,

Vertical tabs can be done by CSS, it doesn’t even require an extension.

nxfsi ,

Some that I have heard (some are outdated and/or mostly irrelevant):

  • slightly slower
  • websites develop for chrome first
    • sites (0.1%) don’t render properly
  • default Firefox still has telemetry
  • still has ads
  • no dinosaur game
  • Mv3 AdBlock still works fine
  • better security because more devs contribute to chromium
  • mostly funded by Google anyways
  • Brendan Eich (left 2014)
    • invented JavaScript
    • political opinions

That said, I’m still using Librewolf.

JokeDeity ,

I know you didn’t say these were your opinions, but I’ll still see if I can comment on them:

It’s not. It’s actually faster.

Ehhhhhhhhh. Source?

Everything has telemetry, but Firefox shows you right where to turn it off, unlike the rest.

??? Which browser has no ads?

Fair.

Adblock? This a joke?

Source?

Source?

Relevance?

Also, Librewolf is just a fork of FF, you can make main FF exactly like Libre but get same day updates and security patches.

tool ,
@tool@lemmy.world avatar

Because Firefox honestly used to be shit, especially in the early Phoenix/Firebird days, but now it isn’t anymore, and they just haven’t bothered to check it out again. The “killing all the existing extensions” thing really didn’t help matters either.

JokeDeity ,

I agree it was a heavy blow when they announced that, I didn’t update for a few months, but man was it a nice fresh start, and I’m grateful that all the addons I had before have now made it over to the new system.

I admittedly didn’t use FF before it was FF, I think I got into it around probably 2006 or so, but it’s been great in my opinion ever since then.

Phrodo_00 ,

Firefox in the Phoenix/Firebird days was amazing compared to ie6, Opera, and SeaMonkey/Mozilla suite

Dxthegod , (edited )
@Dxthegod@lemmy.world avatar

??? I literally never said anything about hating Firefox, I was merely asking a simple question…

I used to use Firefox all the time, then they killed all the extensions. That doesn’t mean I somehow “hate it” LOL

But like, y’know, anyone that doesn’t agree with you is literally Satan, right? 🙄

nik282000 ,
@nik282000@lemmy.ml avatar

I was really sour about the Mr Robot prank where they modified pages without informing the user. But weighing a prank gone wrong against the active goal of dicking over the internet I’ll take the well meaning pranksters.

sirfacefone ,

There’s not a lot these days ever since Opera and Edge switched to Chromium. You gotta move to Apple’s ecosystem for an alternative.

quantenzitrone ,

Epiphany uses WebKit, but it doesn’t have working add-on support yet, so you will still have lots of ads and cookie banners.

I use it as a secondary browser if something doesn’t work in Librewolf, but for me the internet is pretty much unusable without “i (still) don’t care about cookies” and UBlock Origin, so it only works as a backup for me.

There are also some Browsers using QTWebengine which uses Blink (the core of Chromium (meaning technically not chromium itself)) like Qutebrowser and Falkon.

Pale Moon and Basilisk which are based on an old version of Firefox and diverged quite a bit.

Konqueror which uses KHTML (predecessor of WebKit (predecessor of Blink)).

NetSurf idk haven’t tried it.

Then there is stuff like Ladybird, which will crash all the time. Links, ELinks, Lynx, w3m, Links2 are text based. Discontinued Internet Explorer. Old versions of MS Egde. Old versions of Opera. Basically nothing else that is usable.

That’s a symptom of too much caffeine…

I can stop drinking coffee at any time.

… but why would I, when it’s legal and easily available?

Just like pot in my state, in the back.

Knowing Fox News audience they should talk about chewing tobacco. Shit is nasty.

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

I had a coworker who chewed and spit into empty coke cans that he kept in his desk drawers until they were all full. And this was a programming shop!

arefx ,

Also I would consider myself addicted. I use it daily, notice withdrawal symptoms when I abstain (no appetite, nausea, insomnia) but I’m also productive, started my own business 8 months ago and I’m doing well, no one around me has any idea except those I choose to let know lol. I’m high all day no one can tell. Its not like other drugs lol

PerogiBoi ,
@PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca avatar

To me it’s like a heavier caffeine

Kecessa ,

I’m high all day no one can tell.

I’ve got bad news for you bud.

explodicle ,

I’m just not going to snitch on them.

arefx , (edited )

I assure you no one knows but those that I tell lol you are around people every day that are stoned and you have no idea, I promise you that.

LegionEris ,

You really can’t tell if you don’t know the person. I have a bright, weird personality and ADHD and work at a dispensary. People often think I’m high, assume that it’s part of my vibe, but I’m strictly no THC during the day. Meanwhile, one of my most down to earth, serious, no nonsense coworkers does dabs before work and on all her breaks. Nobody thinks she is high all the time, but she’s often the most THC filled person in the building.

limelight79 ,

And Fox News.

newIdentity , in Can you Americans pass the test?

I’m European and can’t name it. I’m really bad at geography

Wait lol “a week’s ban?” Does Facebook like… give people time outs to think about what they’ve done or something?

Literally exactly that. Usually I catch 30 days.
