Off-topic. I’m just saying I have trust issues on the proposed fork because of the deal they have with Microsoft, which I think is more than valid.
I’d like to have a browser I can feel comfortable using and also feel comfortable recommending it to less tech people. Sadly right now there’s no perfect option. We should always aim for the ideal tool, don’t you think?
And seriously, you’re using the « do it yourself if you’re not happy »? Nice way to stop a discussion without any arguments. Do better.
I’m not talking about the ToS thing. Firefox has been gradually collecting data, mainly telemetry, in a pseudo anonymous way or saying they are fully anonymous, but without providing any way to disable it easily. The provided opt-out check doesn’t remove all the telemetry checks, like the different pings being sent occasionally, telling them which version of Firefox you're using for their analytics and usage stats.
The more Firefox grows, the more data they collect. It’s been like that for quite some time. Mozilla is a fake non-profit, higher-ups get paid a shit ton, and almost all their income comes from Google being the default search engine.
At the end of the day, I just want a better for privacy browser than Firefox and Brave, without having to fight with it so it works the way I want it to
The defaults and strict options just makes me feel like it's not a user-friendly browser. It doesn't let me have the browser I want to use, but rather someone else's vision of the browser
The problem is when I talk with someone on Signal, I don’t talk about the same things I talk on email… some subjects are more sensitive than others, same goes for files shared etc…
And yea it’s chat control yet again, but under a different name, and this time in France only
