Firefox now has Terms of Use! This'll go over like a lead balloon

(Encryption over radio is illegal in many jurisdictions tho...

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.

It's not just March 14th, it's also our next lunar eclipse, peak eclipse at about 1:59am...
3.14159
I set alarms in my watch months ago, before ever learning how that date is also going to affect technology and security certificates and shit.
I do hope the weather will be nice early that morning to be able to see the π lunar eclipse at least.

because US capital decided so. notice that the limits the EU has are slowly being undermined.

Yes, Mozilla sync is encrypted, but your account data is sended to Alphabet (Google) and tracked by googleanalytics and google-tagmanager.

Yes, Google can decide what goes in it, but because it's FOSS, any other can decide what to delete from it. The power of Google isn't Chromium, but the Chrome Store, it's services, and all Websites which use Google APIs. Vivaldi has less relations with Google than Mozilla/Firefox, it don't have third party investors or sponsors, like Mozilla, which depends on Google ads and money and recently also from another advertising company, loosing it's independence with it.

I wasn't talking about putting stuff in, I was talking about removing it. You say it's open source, but google decides what contributions are added to the main repo. Even if you fork it, if it's not in upstream, it won't be used.
Jpegxl is a really cool image format that google hates for some reason. Every major company wanted chrome to support it, amazon, facebook, etc. but google said no, and guess what, no one can do anything about it. If you use blink you're a slave to google.

Because they got a fucking licence
Us plebs don't have the privilage

Gnome web is also decent but not great for power users. It's based on Webkit.

i can suggest ironfox, the fork of mull for android

Why why why don't they just do like Wikipedia or the Internet Archive does and just come out and ask for donations instead of trying to sneak all this advertising shit into things?
-
Why don't they use the official fdroid repo?
-
Is File selfhostable & FOSS ?
-
I wonder how they can expect to get more users like that. Their user are privacy conscious, this is the move to lose them.
I am thinking about using tor browser on android. I don't see any other alternative. -
Vivaldi use default Bookmarks and search engines (Startpage, DDG, Ecosia, Qwant and some others), which pay an revenue if the user optional use these (anonym), apart accept donations and there is also an Merch Store. So it avoid third party investors, ads and tracking and so it stay independent, no needs to share user data with third parties. You can delete all these bookmarks and Search engines if you don't use these, using others to your like (easy to add with the context menu). All this permits to support the additional services which has the user with his account, own Webmail (5GB), Blog page, Calendar, Feed, mail client, sync ee2e of all browser data, settings, bookmarks, extensions...., apart permit to participate in the Vivaldi instance in Mastodon.
