But then how do you make money with a browser if you aren't getting Google money and don't spy on users?

Thanks! I'll look them up and give them a shot.
Anything you'd recommend in particular?
Interesting! Anything you'd recommend?
I agree. But also add in the movie industry that's been complete trash for a while now. Not to mention books. I'm not sure if we'll ever see another Harry Potter level book again, at least in our lifetimes.
My take is we've already left the golden ages of movies, music, and books and probably won't get another for an extremely long time.
Video games are going through the same downfall which streaming services brought. Physical media left the movie scene as a standard while ago, but video games took longer. Now it's going to be all streaming and subscriptions where you can never own anything.
Once that happens, enshittification will peak, companies won't be incentivized to make the games good anymore, standards tank, and people will forget how good things once were.
Holy crap, it took two seconds to type this into DDG
Is this from something?
Obama won before and he was part black. Why would that be a problem now?
I just want that popup tooltip thing to stop blocking the most important part of the UI when I delete a message in Proton Mail... That's something obvious and should take 15 minutes to half an hour of a decent dev's time.
I'm really appalled by how bad Proton's project management is.
OH SHIT... which one was Brazinni again?
distributed social web
...ActivityPub?

Even Torvalds said that a lot of critical parts of the kernel are completely undocumented and only one or two devs know how they work. IMO that's completely unacceptable, especially for such an important OS. They've proven they don't want to collaborate or communicate how they work to others.
Rust encodes a LOT of things into the type system, which makes it far, far easier to maintain since you don't need docs, and since the compiler enforces these things automatically. Memory safety is only one of them.
Starting something in a modern language instead of one with so little safety is a massively important feature.
The difference is similar to gas vs electric cars. They're both ultimately cars. Gas filled the niche that horses left. Electric cars have been taken seriously for far less time than gas, but their better technology has accelerated innovation. They almost never need to be taken to the mechanic, don't need oil changes, are way better for the environment, etc. and basically the only gap is getting batteries with larger capacity and more charging stations. We'll get there soon, and then gas cars will be fully obsolete.
In the end, someone who just sees them as one car vs another doesn't understand all the benefits of the implementation.
