yeah I’m using Voyager, but it turns out I had my feed set to top posts from the last 12 hours so none were showing up

I guess beehaw has dbzer0 defederated because those links don’t work for me

There is no agreed way to pronounce it.

so you agree then that one person doesn’t get to decide what the pronunciation is, and there is no “official” way to say it (although, the majority of people use the hard g - source)

I can absolutely understand that point of view and even agree to an extent.

However, as a counterpoint: creative people being able to support themselves with their work means they can focus on their art instead of it just being a side hobby to their money making job

I missed it tbh

The inventor can call it whatever he wants, but it’s not going to change the pronunciation that has stuck with the general public. Language isn’t some decided upon thing that one person gets to control, it is a tool that naturally evolves and changes over time as it spreads from person to person

Firefox? dead?! you mean the browser that peaked in user share in 2009 and has even declining ever since?? no! say it ain’t so! surely if I post a few more memes to lemmy it will turn things around

omg it’s network chuck!

just so you know, Mozilla vpn is just a repackaged mullvad vpn, they’re partnered

if only adblockers could block these Firefox ads

for real though… as an American I would love if we were 11 years behind the EU in lots of other areas

yeah I agree. I’ve noticed a real decline in quality too. I think it’s because the entire site is just bots reposting old content and bots commenting old comments

I wish I did this. I went to check if there were any signs of the protest and couldn’t help but contribute to one of the “fuck spez” signs

I then realized that place already felt kind of overdone last time they did it, this time it just feels completely meaningless

FYI, there is a way to use ReVanced Manager to import your own API key into baconreader and other 3rd party apps:

Thanks for the understanding and reasonable reply. I also appreciate the thoughtful discussion.

I don’t even dislike Firefox, I have it installed on my PC and my phone alongside Brave. And I don’t think Brave is completely undeserving of criticism either, just not to the extent that it is portrayed at large.

Vivaldi is not fully open source, Brave Browser is.

there is no reason to switch from Brave Browser based on this article, it’s not even about Brave Browser, its about Brave Search, and nothing in the article affects users in any way or gives any reason to switch from Brave. Not to mention half the article is retracted now that Brave responded.

The author has no idea what they’re talking about. It’s just a website owner complaining about Brave Search having a summarizer feature so you don’t have to read through 20 paragraphs to get to the important info on websites, same as Google and DDG’s Featured snippets/quick answers. It’s not even shady, it’s a useful feature.

they can’t hear you over the sound of their firefox circlejerk

just a few counter points:

• brave is open source too

• AI copyright precident has not been set by courts, there is no precident for any of this. i don’t see why this is such a big deal you’d stop using their search.

• As a pirate, I think copyright law is bullshit anyway and holds us back as a species. Most copyright law is outdated and stunts creativity and innovation

• most people only care if it affects them. which this does not. it is relevant because that is how people operate if they’re not virtue signaling

• there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. every large organization does some shady shit. Brave in comparison to most hasn’t done anything to warrant such a huge campaign against them. maybe some criticism, sure.

• I meant brave is the only good alternative to Google. all the others have terrible results. Brave is almost as good as google

• and I’m not defending a corporation, I am just tired of Firefox fans jumping on any small thing and making a mountain out of a molehill to try and save their dying browser market share

• also no idea why you think I’m angry about this. I’m just annoyed at the constant Firefox circlejerk/astroturfing campaign

well those gaming chairs are definitely not comfort chairs, that’s for sure
