on the French Amazon I once bought Argan oil and one of the 1 star reviews was “very disappointed, smells and feels like oil”.

I kid you not.

So he has confirmed that Meta is, as whole, a negative hasn’t he?

Stupid me and my 7950X3D

The whole Grad is seething I’m loving it.

They’re 80% dependent on google there is no choice. Mozilla’s behaviour since they got the google deal was the begining of the end. I honestly believe that due to Mozilla’s current leadership it would be best for open source developers to all refocus on the ladybird project. I don’t have any affiliation to that project and I understand how huge of an undertaking it is to build a web engine from scratch but the gecko engine is polluted by the Mozilla’s execs and by extension Google.

To make it clear Google controls Firefox by, in practice, owning an 80% share of Mozilla.

Please ban them, I beg of you, please…

Actually I translated badly from French. I mean it’s a very cluttered app that tries to do too many things. On long routes the battery consumption is really high, in order of 1% per minute if you put in a route that’s more than 1000km long.

I’ll come accross as rude but regardless just use organicmaps.org

OSMAnd is just a white elephant at this point.

Most of the revenue of Mozilla Corporation comes from Google (81% in 2022[2]) in exchange of making it the default search engine in Firefox.

Other issues I have with Firefox is the telemetry bits, the way they handle some of their employees (laying one guy off because he has cancer), the lack of meaningful updates and features in the last decade, CEO granting herself a nice pay rise after doing well nothing really. The list goes on and on honestly.

Don’t get me wrong, you should still use Firefox or a Firefox derived browser if you care about a free internet. I myself use firefox (although I just switched to Zen browser on my PC which is based on Firefox). However we shouldn’t be blind ourselves just because we hate anything google based and/or closed sourced. Firefox is still back by a for profit company which is, as I quoted earlier, backed at least by 80% by google.

For the positive side now it seems that in the last 2-3 months firefox has been pumping out meaningful updates (even on mobile). Things seem to be taking a positive turn recently and I’m actually a bit excited to see where firefox is going to go from here.

In before the disappointment
