  There’s only 34 million uBlock Origin users on Chrome? So, billions are using Chrome without any ad-blockers? That’s crazy and unsafe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla is trying to push me out because I have cancer – CPO⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand your comment. They are the good guys browser-wise but that doesn’t mean they are good guys everywhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Homeserver Ansible Playbook⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Homeserver Ansible Playbook⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice, well done. I wish I could find the same for Debian.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s my issue with Samsung devices: unofficial ROMs are rare. For example on my Galaxy S21 FE, I can’t run LineageOS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably true, but I must mention you also have great things in the Android / Samsung ecosystem. For example, Samsung Dex is impressive and I do use it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am on Samsung devices right now (phone & tablet) but I’m not 100% convinced and I do not advocate for this brand.

  I’m just waiting for a more mature Fairphone & /e/os platform.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure Apple is missing a significant market share of consumers like myself who can’t stand their anti-competitive practices. That’s why I can only buy Android phones and tablets, until we get decent Linux ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We are in Brave's search results!⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always the same story: are confident are you that this is true?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla lays off 60 people, wants to build AI into Firefox⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If the only use case is translation, that’s probably not a good business case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kagi is now partnering with Brave⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Has he done more than giving 1000 USD in 2008? Any statement for example?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kyutai is a French AI research lab with a $330 million budget that will make everything open source⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seriously, all code produced by French devs are in English minor a few personal projects

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No, Okta, senior management, not an errant employee, caused you to get hacked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It would indeed. “Problematic by design” then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No, Okta, senior management, not an errant employee, caused you to get hacked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Using my company’s network, access to Google (Gmail) authentication is blocked by the firewall. Why haven’t they done similarly if employees aren’t supposed to do so?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top Apple analyst says MacBook demand has fallen 'significantly'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife’s 3 years old MacBook with the software bar is such a nightmare to use. I get really pissed off whenever I get close to this thing. Between the poorly placed bar and the weird touchpad, never again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 12 May Require a Subscription⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately the difference is huge. It’s not just the cost of learning a new tool, it’s that 10% of really important features are not there. For me for example it was the ability to apply a theme to an existing presentation in Impress. Well in the corporate world, it’s mandatory.

  Using Linux daily since 99, as my only personal OS since 2013, and still struggling with the office alternatives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As Smartphone Industry Sputters, the iPhone Expands Its Dominance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Because that’s the universal text messaging platform - everybody’s got it. And because we’re receiving messages from companies via SMS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As Smartphone Industry Sputters, the iPhone Expands Its Dominance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I was a Signal until they decided to drop SMS. Now it’s just an app with 1% of my friends.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think of framework and their methods?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They are active in some EU countries

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As Smartphone Industry Sputters, the iPhone Expands Its Dominance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone around me have family groups on WhatsApp, including 90+ old grandmas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As Smartphone Industry Sputters, the iPhone Expands Its Dominance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t believe you seriously asked what WhatsApp is… where do you come from?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's not just you — no one is posting on social media anymore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The principles are cool but none of my friend wants to bother with another social network
