If I'm gonna pay for the food already then why would I want to have to do more work just to eat it?

Fully agree with you.

Apparently the Senate is not enough and we need to cede an entire other branch as well to the minority. That's apparently fair..

Yep. As someone in the States, I basically stopped using it. It at least worked well to get people on it here and anything with them was encrypted.

I think it's still very relevant to everyone else. An open standard is better than a closed system like WhatsApp.

One day we'll wonder why we let so much get tangled up in single companies. You'd think Twitter would wake people up.

I don't know how much better going to another closed system is. AFAIK it's only Google running these servers and only their implementation.

Seems it was temporary maybe?

I add .rss (note the period) and it works fine.

That's where I'm at. Don't care that it's not FOSS or the Dev charges. I just wouldn't support an app that puts trackers and ads on a product that inherently doesn't. Putting it behind a paywall wouldn't bother me a bit.

That said, that's why I don't use it nor support it but don't give a shit if someone else does.

Same. Now my only used app. Similar ish to infinity which I used before.

Unless someone wants to pay Firefox an ungodly sum out of their own pocket I fail to see how relying on Google for search engine money is so bad.

They clearly are going different ways with the browser and aren't beholden to them.

Could be a great complement to osm. I'm excited to see how it develops.

It's pretty great. Lightweight and nice looking.

Agree with other comments. I used to recommend Ubuntu otherwise (though I don't use it personally) but refrain now. Would just as soon recommend Debian or Linux Mint now.

The arrogance of installing the snap of Firefox even when you try to do it via cli irks me to no end.
