Stop using Brave Browser

The Brave web browser has carved out a niche over the past few years as an alternative to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and other mainstream web browsers. Some of that has come from its marketing as a privacy-preserving web browser, and it has also been repeatedly evangelized by cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

Stop using Brave Browser - by Corbin Davenport

Seriously.

^{Corbin Davenport (The Spacebar)}

Unlike most others, we have made certain choices at Vivaldi that IMHO are important in this time and age. We believe the choices were important when we made them, but even more so today.

Our servers are in Iceland and they are our servers and not some cloud servers. We use them for all Vivaldi services, including things like Sync, Blogs, Forums and Vivaldi Social.

Electricity in Iceland is green. Most all of the power in use is hydro, with a little bit of geo thermal.

We do make use of CDNs for speed, etc., of course.

🤔 Eine Empfehlung wäre nicht schlecht gewesen.
Auch bisher war es so, dass man Firefox nur mit den Erweiterungen …
• NoScript
• uBlock Origin
• Ghostery
… betreiben sollte.
Mit diesen ist Firefox immer noch der beste Kompromiss zwischen Komfort und Datenschutz.

Microsoft begins turning off uBlock Origin and other extensions in Edge

Microsoft is now in the process of turning off Manifest V2-based extensions in Edge, such as uBlock Origin. However, not everything is lost at this point.

Da ich mich immer ein wenig unwohl fühle, wenn mehrere Daten von mir konzentriert an eine einzige Stelle gehen ( #Mozilla #Firefox ), obwohl #OpenSource und ein transparenter Umgang mit dem Thema #Datenschutz, habe ich heute Morgen auf den noch ein wenig privateren #Browser #LibreWolf umgestellt.

So bequem die Möglichkeit der Synchronisation zwischen mehreren Endgeräten auch sein kann, die Daten der #Lesezeichen, #AddOns, vielleicht sogar die #Passwörter und neuerdings auch E-Mail-Masken und obendrein auch noch die Telefonnummer-Maske sowie einem #VPN in die Hände EINES Anbieters zu geben - lieber nicht ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Die Integration von #KeePass war zwar ein wenig herausfordernd, aber jetzt habe ich mich auch hier noch ein wenig besser absichern können 😀

After #community #protest: #Firefox #update on their "Terms of Use"

Source: blog.mozilla.org/en/products/f…

Our intent was just to be as clear as possible about how we make Firefox work, but in doing so we also created some #confusion and #concern. With that in mind, we’re updating the language to more clearly reflect the limited scope of how #Mozilla interacts with #user #data.

An update on our Terms of Use

We’ve been listening to some of our community’s concerns with parts of the TOU, specifically about licensing. Our intent was just to be as clear as possible about how we make Firefox work, but in doing so we also created some confusion and concern.

Kurzer Reminder:

Mit der bevorstehenden Einführung von Manifest v3 werden Google Chrome und langfristig wahrscheinlich alle Browser, die die Rendering-Engine „Blink“ verwenden, Browser-Add-ons wie uBlock Origin nicht mehr unterstützen.

Verbreitet die Botschaft und animiert eure Umgebung #Browser mit der Rendering-Engine „Gecko“ wie z.B. #Firefox oder #Mullvad zu verwenden.

The current frequency of language usage on the Web (e.g. 52% of websites in English) doesn't reflect the diverse cultural and linguistic needs essential for global access, highlighting the importance of internationalization (i18n).

Fuqiao Xue, @w3c i18n activity lead, gave a comprehensive report of past and future @webi18n work, collaborating with spec and #browser #developers to address gaps, particularly for endangered scripts and #languages.
