i’m aware of it and havent yet jumped the wagon because of my experience in the past w other firefox clones like iceweasel.

librewolf is my most likely bet; i want to stay away from anything chromium based.
i think that the first sign of enshitification is its leaders and it seems like it’s already here.
i’m wondering what browser to switch to next.
If YOU feel apathetic, please find a socialist/communist/radical left party/group and join it. It can help immensely
i’ve done this and we accomplished little more than a few demonstrations that went completely unnoticed and some phone calls that were never returned; not all party/groups are helpful.
However, history has shown
i think that this is the key part. i’m unaware of a leftist victory in the global north since the great depression and i suspect it’s because the hegemonic powers have gotten so good and so organized at mitigating possible class cohesion that we’re stuck in this pattern until something very drastic happens to society centuries/millennia from now; making a leftist victory a practical impossibility for any of us in ours or the next several generation’s lifetimes.
this and macron creating a conservative government despite leftists winning the most votes in france makes me wonder if a leftist victory is ever possible.
and you spend your entire tenure trying to convert it into another language while simultaneously adding to the pile.
and now he’s a “philanthropist”
emphasis on the quotes since he’s put his wealth into a charity; like most of the utlra wealth do; to avoid taxes so now he’s legally required to spent 5% of it in philanthropy.
they were trying to make a windows alternative since microsoft was using their leverage w windows to make corel lose money and courts were doing little more than slapping microsoft on the wrist for doing it.
they’ll not only shoot you; but each other as well. lol
bigotry exists in all forms; but it’s only the kind expressed by the uneducated & poor that gets rebuke and this one has been committed in plain sight since the 1980’s by the wealthy and educated.
i bet that the people who made this decision were dealing with the AIDS epidemic
tests have been available since the 1980’s; they just don’t want gays there.
I’m not allowed to give blood since I’m gay and have an active sex life
They want a device that “just works” and has their ecosystem.
i have friends that struggle to pay rent and they’re forced to pay apple’s extortion-esque prices when something goes wrong or when purchasing their phones and equipment.
witnessing them suffer like this hits close to home for me because i grew up poor enough to ration out the government cheese & powdered milk along with asking extended family and begging neighbors for food so that we could stay alive until next payday and also because i’m tech savvy enough to understand how unscrupulously apple has behaved at creating this well designed trap of an ecosystem that’s actively easy to fall into and passively difficult to leave; locking my friends into a seeming perpetually repeating cycle of new iphones and government cheese.
i think that the icing on this shit-cake is that they’re all atleast vaguely aware that apple is screwing them over; but they still accept it because it either “just works” or it’s “all they know” and that blows my mind because 5-year-old-me HATED government powdered milk in my cereal enough to switch to oatmeal for breakfast if it were an option.
if you’re referring to climate change and i would expect that it would cause the 4th near human extinction event at a minimum; so there’s a chance humanity will survive and there will be some sort of a society if it does.
perhaps since we’ve exhausted most of the easily accessible sources of energy; maybe the next society won’t be able to advance past the next stone age on-wards to develop the industrial or technological capabilities that enable such absurd disparities in wealth they can afford to bend the entire world to their will for a genocide; rending 99% of the world helpless as they can do nothing but witness palestinians culled into numbers small enough that isreal no longer considers them a threat.
Harris is Palestines best bet at continued existence. Sorry if that hurts your feelings or something…
continued existence is going to happen one way or the other. isreal is going for an american style genocide which means kill enough of the natives so that they’re a small, manageable enough number and then your country can spend the rest of its existence throwing enough $$$ at their reservations to ostensibly show you’re “super sorry” that you genocided so many of them; but not enough to for them to ever escape this newly imposed generational poverty and also without any promise that your country won’t ever fuck them over again in the future when another pipeline needs to be built.
It’s a matter of time.
i wish that timescale wasn’t in the centuries.
Professionally/commercially they’re MILES ahead of Red hat, Oracle, or Suse.
Personally/free they do weird shit that usually doesn’t seem make sense on its surface if you’re not getting paid to learn it.
Take snaps for example: flatpak/app image/whatever makes more sense if you only care nothing beyond getting/running the software; but in a professional setting where you need third party info for something like an sbom or some sort of industry compliancy, snaps make it easy.
