A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
The meme makes it seem lime there's some causal relationship though: because we tried to avoid big corp products and dampen enshittification, the alternatives we started to seek are going bad? I don't think so. The world at large is going to shit in a general stream of shitfulness, but I don't think we caused that development by trying to evade the shit.
I’m trying out 3 different browsers atm and I think I’ll just keep all 3 and cycle though or use at different privacy settings. I will miss Firefox and not having to think about my browser. Can’t wait to watch all 3 go to shit as well.
Librewolf seems exactly the same, but it breaks Lemmy for me. It's probably a setting I didn't know to turn off.
It's likely the resist fingerprinting option. It breaks many websites or those that use bot checking thing.
I'll try some testing around those features.
Don't hold out on us! Which browsers?
It's good to have some variety - after all different things get shitty in different ways.
This thread got removed where it listed all of the things reddit collects, but we shouldn't get complacent here either. We need to check our instances.
Some of the instances do this here. This is not a 100% haven. It’s great and waaaay better, but still, check into your instances, Lemmies.
constructs like companies and software come and go but the individuals, the movement that strives for freedom stays the same
I've been trying the duckduckgo browser, I think I may stick with it. No idea what to do about email
I've started migrating from Proton to Mailbox.org. Mailbox supports IMAP, and they have a calendar as well. https://mailbox.org/en/
Cool cool, lumping "I love fascists, actually" together with "We're clarifying our legal positions"
So why does a free and ethical software need a user data collection policy that we have to agree to?
Why do they suddenly need to start collecting our data?
I assume because either their legal department, or it sounds like maybe this new exec Varma, thought that the previous language opened them up to potential liability in some jurisdictions.
The brightline for me is when the terms actually become onerous. If you were an extreme privacy nerd you were already using a fork anyway, for the average user there's nothing in the terms that's threatening yet IMO.
