if only ublock could stop these Firefox ads

I swear every space game is described like this

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

Lemmy users try not to correct you challenge (impossible)

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!

if only adblockers could block these Firefox ads

agreed. imo YouTube has one of the best algorithms out of any social media site. maybe it’s just because I’ve had an account for over 10 years, but it always suggests great videos

wow I wish we learned this kind of stuff in school

Every single one of these Brave “scandals” are so irrelevant and meaningless. I was hoping the reddit hive mind wouldn’t be brought over to lemmy, but here we are.

This article, especially after the update from Brave, seems like a huge nothing-burger. Just another excuse for the Firefox Fanatics crowd to rag on Brave and circlejerk each other about how good Firefox is.

The article isn’t even about Brave Browser, and it has nothing to do with user data. The website owner is mad that Brave Search is crawling their site and using data in their “Summarizer” feature. I thought Firefox users were supposed to be against the Google internet monopoly, but apparently when it comes to one of the only companies with their own independent and actually decent search engine, they don’t seem to care anymore because of stupid “Firefox good brave bad” browser wars nonsense.

is this thread really 2 years old?

I thought about using comodo firewall a while back, but their software just seems so shady…

definitely!

unfortunately the thing about them eating ticks has been shown to only occur in captive opossums

Well in my experience, Firefox is definitely slower, and it is immediately apparent that it is much jankier than Chrome. And as the many posts I linked above show, I am not the only one with this experience.

Also it’s hilarious how I give a source and now the goal posts are moved and the benchmarks are “synthetic”

CPU and GPU benchmarks are also “synthetic” but they still show actual differences between what is being tested.

Qualitatively and quantitatively, Firefox is slower.
