Can you point to where I said that Mozilla is as bad as Google?

I don’t think you’ll be able to.

Mozilla has been called out for concerning things in the past, as has Canonical. I think it’s okay to call companies out for doing shady things, and I think it’s okay to hold them accountable.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be concerned.

There is no indication that they’re blocking adblockers or taking away firefox customization.

Yet.

We don’t know that after they are deeper and deeper into the advertising industry, that they don’t just go ahead and do it.

Remember how Google wasn’t always evil? Money changes companies (and people). Advertising money could very well change Mozilla. Plus, remember, these statements are them telling you the public version, things that they are claiming will happen. Often times what goes on behind the scenes is very different.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be concerned by this.

You’d think so, and yet… not always lol

Cookies are used for storing data, fwiw.

That would be so unfortunate, I would definitely hate that!

Plus, there’s always piracy. With that said, I generally prefer the older games anyway.

Holy shit why is this so true LMAO

There are dozens of us!

Still impressive imo, I have friends who work in IT who don’t even self-host lol

That’s really wholesome lol

I like to call myself a professional idiot. I love tinkering with my homelab setup.

As someone with a strong tech background, that’s just impressive to me. It’s cool to see non-technical people are interested in self-hosting too, and for good reason.

My last 3 employers have let me use Linux on my work laptop, I’ve gone with Ubuntu each time, it has worked really well for me. I’m lucky that I get to use Linux since I work as a web dev, it often matches production more easily that way.

I can understand both sides and I’ve been on both sides. Wanting to donate to show appreciation and help support an awesome project, and not accepting donations due to creating the burden of unfair support/development expectations for a volunteer project.

It really is such a cool extension.

Someone should edit this image lol

20TB (out of 21TB usable), a second 6x6TB zfs raidz2 server as my send target.

The most accurate name lol

FWIW, I’ve found that the -v flag often doesn’t say why it’s not using your key, just that it isn’t using your key and it has fallen back to password authentication.

It’s usually not terribly helpful for figuring out why it’s not using your key, just that it’s not using your key, which you kind of already know if it’s prompting you for a password. lol

I may be biased, but I like Lemmy Infinite Scroller. It started out as a 20 minute project just as a proof of concept and then evolved into me trying to make an infinite scroller that works really well. It works well, I can’t recall if I made it open-source but I didn’t obfuscate the code or anything like that so it’s practically open-source anyway even if I didn’t make a repo for it. I just published the manifest v3 update of it last week so it’s pretty futureproof too.

Other obvious extensions are uBlock Origin, uMatrix, and surprisingly one called Dark Background and Light Text (though Dark Reader is also cool too).

Thankfully that’s one thing that can be restored between BIOS versions for my motherboard lol
