Agreed. But these are all things that can (and should) be fixed.

Walking a mile should take 15-20 minutes. If the streets are very busy, the pollution bad, the tunnels smell like piss etc, then that is the problem. Small amounts of moderate exercise every day are a lot better than going to the gym (by ca

Because… if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Where and how will you host your email service, for example?

Probably not. If you need to walk a mile, that’s a feature, not a bug. Of course, if you need to walk multiple miles, that’s a different story.

How old is your kid? In which European countries do you think the law does not mandate child seats ?

Brave, then, I imagine.

Brave, like Vivaldi, I think, have developed their own ad blocker. No idea if they will fight to keep UBlock Origin accessible or not. I think and certainly hope that Helium will fight the good fight.

To people who like Chrome, or some of its features (I love their bookmarks), I say: try Helium. Or Iridium. Or even Brave.

Ok but if you use it only for testing, and not for your ‘real’ browsing, then probably the fact that they track what you are doing is not that important, even if it’s still a nuisance. Or not?

All users should demand privacy, but they don’t. Take a look at Firefox’s market share, or Brave’s etc.

A dollar per year per phone, while having their brand and not Google’s, is truly a great deal.

Why are people on HN still using Chrome? (or Edge, or Opera…)

by dotcoma 4mo ago
Can it be turned off ?

by dotcoma 4mo ago
No, it’s easily 5x overpriced.

I can’t believe people are still using Facebook!

Probably one to his parents or wife or kids, too…

Because tech shapes society. Because not every thread is only for SWEs. Because I used to work in the field (in mktg/biz dev). Because it’s a habit. Because I like the simplicity of this website. Because comments are, on average, bette

Does it count as Safari in stats? If it did, they’d have a 100% market share, wouldn’t they?

They need to get their browsers listed on AppStore, sure.
149.
by dotcoma 4mo ago
Really? I Never got a weird message from Apple about other browsers being bad or potentially dangerous, and I tried Vivaldi, DDG, Brave, Firefox, Firefox Focus, and I currently have DDG set as my main browser. And of course I can delete Saf

I moved to Helium instead, but that nobody will pay is to be seen.
