Be nice, this isn't the app next door.

Why not both, with Brave? I know their are kinda hated for making changes without warning the user, but it seems to be the closest thing to a fairly private and secure browser... Plus they have a whole team behind it, not just some guy in his basement (nothing against guys in their basements btw, it's just harder to be on top of security issues when you're one).

I try to be more positive on this platform but with these scumbags, I cannot.

Thank you for making this effort, by the way. The community on Lemmy versus the other platform we all know about is night and day because of people like you.

And I absolutely agree. I went to read a bit about the Salvation Army and I had no idea about their stance. I'm glad I came across this post. Truly appalling.

That's right. The thing that anti-government people seem to forget is that, left unchecked, corporations are much worse than oppressive governments. Democratic Nations need to be vigilant of both.

Edge will say it's "maintained by your organization", which seemed spooky, but that's just a side-effect from having some privacy.

Ooooooh, so that's why I started seeing that shit. I thought I had a virus, lmao. Cheers.

Yeah. I've been wanting to adopt Linux as a daily driver, but unfortunately there are programs that simply aren't made for anything other than Windows/Mac. I seriously do hope programmers start investing more in software for Linux so that I can make the switch permanently.

Might I introduce you to the Data Hoarder community? Those unsung heroes who keep humanity afloat and ask for nothing in return?

I know you got some flack for this. But I absolutely love this type of humour.

Trusting porn componies with peoples private info" vs "porn shouldnt be easily accessible" are not the same thing.

The political face of conservatism has changed, but make no mistake, these are the same people. Political strategy has always been a thing, and policy positions change according to the direction the wind is blowing.

Same. I will abstain from having an opinion on this case, lol.

Haha. Fair point!

Makes you wonder which came first: the psychopathy or the CEO position. Could be an interesting study to be performed, for sure.
