chromium is objectively faster and isn't any better than firefox

are you aware that pozfox now has "install and run studies" (literally install and run botnet) and send telemetry enabled by default on all OS's?


 No.1022227>>1022389

>>1022223

let's also not forget that pozfox defaults to google as a search engine, defaults to autocomplete enabled (which gets sent to google), and includes google's tracking code on the add-on's page.

the only answer is GNU webkit based browsers or qtwebengine(which is just chromium).

Bugfixes and security patches, faggot. Have fun spreading your ass for the latest exploit because your retarded ass stuck with an old browser instead of upgrading or switching.

Software is free, identity theft isn't. Take your boomer car metaphors elsewhere and switch browsers, preferably to something slimmer and simpler with fewer potential exploits.

They intentionally include security vulnerabilities in their products to force you to update. That way if a significant portion of their userbase refuses to update to a newer version they can just leak the vulnerability and allow pajeet botnet masters to get into your system with ease

I can't believe people argue this shit in a thread about an update breaking uMatrix, a security hole ten times bigger than any esoteric "exploit".

Anon, the devs themselves are exploiting you. They provide software with nice features to make you switched, then start sneaking in botnet in the updates. It's a literal trojan horse, they don't even hide it because it's legal.

https://archive.fo/Pz5ZI (a ledditor identified the author of one of the shoah'd replies as Kus Resa; see below)

I think the best thing people can really do for now is to get the word out to extension developers and browser developers (especially Google) that the proposed APIs and manifest should not be restricted to such an extent and that users should retain enough freedom and capabilities to easily control what to do with extensions and requests within their browser.
Once the v3 proposal is set in stone and implemented it will be too late of a surprise for the majority of unaware extension users who will notice a shifting of how and what ads/trackers/requests get blocked and it will be near impossible to rollback the changes as the browser market leader has a low incentive to do so.
I don't want to sound too dramatic but the implementation of the v3 proposal as it is right now could be the beginning of something that will have wider implications on the web and users' ability to decide how they can browse it.
Due to Google's position of power on the web and influence on websites it will almost certainly affect more than just Chromium/Chrome users.

In the current state, it absolutely is. I do wonder though, if scattered about in the world, there are people who would just like to revert to very simplified internet format without the plethora of styling options and any javascript.

Needed:

>Display structured text (title, headers, bulleted list)

>Images

>Other multimedia (never autoplayed)

>Data format is easily parsable.

>Postable forms.

That's it. What is more, it wouldn't involve reinventing the wheel for a sensible protocol developed around these concepts, which could use existing technologies.

If you just want to display text and images in a list then anyone can do that easily. Parsing a html-like document isn't hard at all.

That's what you want you defeatist.

1) It's a proposal which is currently being discussed.

2) As others have pointed out there are still other ways to block ads.

3) You can always just support Firefox and other browsers and try to make them don't go that way.

4) If you had the skills, which can be learned, to organize the development of a new appealing browser or platform you are free to do that.
