I don’t really think the current setup is too bad. Chromium being open source means anyone can fork it and make their own better browser without having to write everything from scratch.

Personally, I use Vivaldi. To the best of my knowledge Google can’t spy on me, they have plans for mitigating Manifest V3, and it has many useful extra features such as tab splitting and separate workspaces. It’s made to be super customizable and from my experience the interface stays mostly the same between updates - something that annoyed me a lot about Chrome/Firefox. It can be a little rough around the edges sometimes, but I love using it.

This is the power of FOSS. By default it treats the end user with dignity because you aren’t a tool to extract value from anymore.

And then they have the nerve to give you dirty looks and ask why you’re wearing a mask. Buddy, employees going to work with covid is now cause for celebration where I am, fuck off.

Had this happen to me taking a marketing course (bleh) the other day.

“The word count is 2000 but I’m close to done with a lot less than that, do I need to have ~2000 words?”

“Hi! You can go 10% over the word count. Thanks! :)”

They also had a glaring issue in a quiz that, apparently, was never noticed by 500 people over the span of two years. Blows the mind.

There’s something just so charming about the DS format. I’m hoping to work on a small game for it when I have the time.
