Firefox now has Terms of Use! This'll go over like a lead balloon
-
Yes, but even more important to avoid sync with an Mozilla account, if you need the sync function (maybe Filen?) (Vivaldi has an own sync EE2E)
-
Also because Blink is the best and most advanced engine. The problem of Chromium is only that it need to gut out the Google APIs before it is a valid base for an browser. Vivaldi does it, also degoogled Chromium and even EDGE (but in change filling it with a ton of M$ tracking APIs). The only alternative (Linux only) is the Konqueror Browser with the Grandfather of Blink, KHTML by KDE.

anyone up to date on how servo has been doing?

Yes, but also non existent US privacy policy. Ther the users are simply raw material for the benefit of large corporations, to make America great again. The EU at least put limits to these abuses.

Bring back ham radios.
Ah shit I'm too introverted to use my voice...
Data packets through radio?
Btw: Rattlegram is a Android/iOS app that can convert text to audio, which you can then play over a ham radio. You can use encryption before you paste the ciphertext into Rattlegram. (Encryption over radio is illegal in many jurisdictions tho...

The problem of using blink is that then you give more power to google. They are the ones developing it, so they can decide what goes in it... cough jpegxl cough...

I’m switching to Librewolf. I don’t want ads in my browser.

Check out the gemini protocol and the small web, lots of rabbit holes there.

Software Defined Radio?

It's a cosmic cabal! The aliens are coming!

I was on the verge of deleting everything online, including my email address, because I'm with you, but at what point does the privacy movement start intruding on enjoyment of daily activity. I've accepted that my information will be had in exchange for a good product.
It's not exactly how I want to operate, but also, life is too short. Ultimately, I'm on the verge of using Mullvad Browser, Mullvad VPN, and probably getting my email hosted out of some small shared hosting platform somewhere.
I think about this type of stuff daily and it's just exhausting. The Internet has transformed into what we'd hoped it wouldn't over the past five years.

I'll be moving to https://github.com/schizofox/schizofox on my x86 machines.
Mobile will be a fork of Firefox.
https://github.com/LadybirdBrowser/ladybird is a project I'm keeping an eye on, will be a while off being a daily driver.

Firefox sync is E2EE too (or at least can be, mine is)
-
i think you can have it sync to a self hosted server, also an option.
-
AFAIK the sync is end to end encrypted

Unless the police do it.

I just switched to Bitwarden for passwords

What's the best alternative? This doesn't sound great.....
-
That's the best free option, and possibly best option overall. I've been with them for about five years now and it's been great.

You can, but the last time I did that the instructions were incomplete, and you still had to auth through Mozilla. That was a few years ago, so things might have changed since then.
