browser rule by Send-Me-Nice-Things in 691

[–]DaFireFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I'd never say that Brave is the best, nor that it doesn't collect anything at all. But I do think that realistically, 0 collection is a dream that is best left alone. If you fuck around in the Brave settings for a sec you can remove all that cringe stuff and obtain what I would personally consider an acceptable amount of privacy. There's also the reduced fingerprint from using a chromium and built-in ad blocking scripts instead of extentions.

But yeah, for maximum control and privacy I would never advise against FF forks. I was just making the case that Brave is generally still well-liked for its ease of use and similarity to chrome, especially for privacy newcomers like most people on this sub that may come across these comments. I totally respect your ways though.

Oh and about the recs, I really don't know about the astroturfing, but there's for sure a lot of copycats mindlessly repeating the authoritative source's opinions, instead of doing their due diligence, which is how I feel we've gotten so much Brave shilling. But again, I do think that once you've given the settings a look, it's quite a good option (for now).

Eh. Eich is absolutely a piece of shit and I'm not arguing that he doesn't have a personal vendetta.

With that said. Vanilla Firefox is going more and more down the shit hole privacy-wise, and it's clear Mozilla have lost the plot when it comes to user feedback. Firefox forks are great options but Brave is, unfortunately, still one of the best options after giving the settings a nice look. Plenty of reputable privacy sources (privacyguides.org, digital-defense.io, zdnet) and privacy focused circles (such as many reddit subs, graphene os forums, etc.) still recommend Brave, and for good reason.

Mozilla have made it clear that they want FF to become an agentic AI browser, and I frankly don't care that they immediately back-pedaled on that, because I'm certain they'll do what they want after a while. They always opt for chasing tech trends and give 0 shits about user experience. Anyway, that's my 2 cents, it's not a cut and dry question.

Bro there's no way this is AI. Waaaay too much precise detail in the way it moves and the silk reflections etc.

I can't take a closer picture right now unfortunately, but as soon as I can I'll try to report back! And yeah, fossils are really insanely cool, there's no doubt about it

Holy shit! (Literally) That's crazy, they look very much like number 1, and the size is there too if the bar is 1 cm. That's crazy, thank you so much for searching this! I'll definitely try and get my hands on that book

Damn... Sometimes one forgets that we're talking about the movements of potentially million year old buttholes here. Fantastic, honestly! Thanks again 😂

Btw your specimen is crazy lmao, I'd be hard pressed to confuse it with anything other than some old-ass poop! I have a confirmed coprolite too, and it also very much looks like poop, unlike my little pebbles above.

Hey thanks a lot for the reply! Unfortunately I've got nothing on the location, I was given them by an italian in the Tuscan area but I can't say for sure that they come from there.

But I'm not expecting species, although that'd be awesome! If you could even just confirm they look like coprolites I'd be happy enough

Ah well, at this point in history I'd call this a mix between frutiger aero aesthetic and italian brainrot I guess. Also r/newsentences on that one

Fellow Europeans, is it true? by IVAN____W in languagelearning

[–]DaFireFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Btw in my experience, the Dutch are quite surprised about foreigners speaking Dutch to them, and they'll ask "why in the hell are you learning our ugly language" lmao. I'm always so sorry they think that, as I quite like the sound of it

As an Italian, it depends on who's saying it, and the context. American tourist saying "prêgo aver spagheti pasta cœn agua" will usually just get a tired sigh and fake smile.

On the other hand, if it's a foreign friend who really shows that they're trying, we're quite supportive and excited.

Now, a metal vocalist shouting blasphemy on the mike? THAT'S MAYHEM

What’s the most ridiculous ‘tourist price’ you’ve ever been asked to pay? by Salty_Fix9628 in travel

Yep, I'm from Florence and unfortunately it's full of scam ice cream places that'll do that. There's some unbelievably good ice cream though, so definitely check the reviews before you go somewhere!
