Good reason to de-Google my existence. When an evil thing is actively trying to destroy the Web in a way even Microsoft didn't, it's time for that evil to get destroyed.

Unfortunately, as long as the standard response is dismissive like yours, that's what the majority will do. When someone expresses confusion, the goal shouldn't be to send them to the mainstream product, it should be to go back an

You're pointing out one of the main complaints that's led to PM use. The codebase of electrolysis-Firefox & XUL-Firefox have diverged to that degree. And some of us have found that single-process function and customization fea

Oh, I agree about honesty as a selling point. That's the only thing that makes me engaged in this device. However, there's a difference between being honest in a technical sense, and seeking to solve problems from a consumer persp

As far as my user experience is concerned, yes, you're wrong, and that's okay - you're working from opinion & I'm speaking from personal experience only. I've had no security breaches of my PC since I switched t

Browser extensions are being underrated deliberately by browser developers. Ever since we lost XUL Firefox, anyone who wants to really do anything worth doing around a web browser should have already switched to Pale Moon. Doubly so with

I'm sorry, this device profile doesn't really sell me on why I need to upgrade from my Android TracFone; it doesn't even give me confidence that it will work with the networks I need it to. This is part of the problem I&#x27

I wonder, does Outlook 2019 have the "system" font glitch from Win 3.xx? I think I'll be sending out all my HTML emails in either System or Courier from now on; just to pull peoples' legs.

It's highly amusing to find out about this, as someone who disables ECMAScript on every browser I use. Why is it that certain groups of web authors seem to be under the impression that more "tech" = better? Why can't t

So you're saying that the browser client will now be regularly sending secure information on a regular basis to a predictable IP, across HTTP (hopefully S, but I'm sure there will be a fallback), via dynamic path and across an unk

I hate New Reddit, frankly. I always use old on desktop. And on Android, I use a program called RedReader, from F-Droid. It's a (mostly) text-only reader - I can open pics and video of I tap it, but by default only text gets downloaded

Perhaps so, but I was absolutely correct on the response.

I'll be downvoted to Hell for this, but I don't care. With each subsequent release of Firefox, I'm consistently happy that I've moved to Pale Moon. The nonsense they're adding and the problems that Mozilla has to &q

You can send .MP3 and .WAV files via DCC. Sure, it's pretty high on the latency, but it's a voice chat all the same.

You know, the fact that their tools were originally Linux explains why the tools are so bloated and slow compared to the MS-DOS utilities I still use like EDIT, TREE, and MORE. It also explains why FreeDOS won't install on PCs I have

I'm looking forward to hearing the actual releases. I still use floppies when I can, and I still have a bunch of old PCs hanging around. It'll be good to have a valid reason to boot them up.

The day I consider my WWW browser the most important software on my PC is the day I go back to dialup. Frankly, I agree with your base theory - that's why the important software on my PC is Windows and MSOffice, rather than *nix and Op

I have found that, as much as Moonchild & Tobin can be difficult, I trust their judgment far more than I do Mozilla's. I want to be in control of my browser, I want to determine what gets downloaded and uploaded from my PC. They te

Never underestimate the power of the NaNo forums, or subreddits, or general forums that open a NaNo board. It's not just about pacing, it's about communication.

If work happens and somehow anything goes wrong, they get fired. Therefore it's a matter of self-preservation to get everything possible frozen.

There is no way Mozilla can remain a corporate entity and simultaneously make me feel like they deserve my money. It would require a complete clean break with Google, with the understanding that if they can't make it on their own, wit
