Brave Software has announced plans to deprecate the 'Strict' fingerprinting protection mode in its privacy-focused Brave Browser because it causes many sites to function incorrectly.
Are you seriously complaining about different comment threads within a post? That is literally how this works. Anybody who wants to talk about the feature is welcome to. You are not restricted to one thread at a time.
Be real, you just don’t like the critique of brave.
I mean, it’s more like I wanted to see more discussion about brave. It’s not even like it’s talking about things the CEO specifically did to the browser, it’s just talking about the CEO.
And yeah I’m complaining about different threads in a post, when 3 comments are about the browser and like 15 are about the CEO.
If you have something to say negative about brave from this feature, that’s cool, but I’m not seeing it.
You are spending more time than anybody discussing this. The person wrote one short comment and here you are going back and forth still. If you want to talk about the removed feature then talk about the removed feature! Nobody stopping you my dude
Please don’t tell me you wear adidas (founded by a Nazi), or drive a Ford (made by an antisemite), or listen to Wagner, (a racist), or drive a Volkswagen, or play Minecraft, or use wix, or eat at Chick-fil-A, or…etc etc
Uhhh…that’s not a meme, as the other guy said it’s virtue signalling. I don’t even know why you would fallback on it being a meme since people generally agreed with what you said.
If anything I think that makes you sound like an ass but that’s just me.
For those oh so super valuable virtue signal points, as if most of the services and products they use weren’t created with slave labor and run by people who’ve done far worse
He wasn’t fired. He voluntarily left. And thus Mozilla is left with an incompetent CEO whose only aim is to increase her paycheck year after year, despite pathetic market share results for FF. Enjoy that.
That said, nobody cares about your “friendly remainders”. We’re talking about software here, not politics.
And, to stay on topic, yes, it happened to me that Strict FP broke some website, in particular those displaying a frame with a map or similar stuff. So I’ve resorted to use “standard” FP myself.
I’m not a shill for Brave. It has its fair share of technical issues but it’s the less worse browser for my use case (better than FF, anyway). Your (or mine) opinion on the CEO has nothing to do with the technical issue discussed in OP’s link.
And no, what MAGA are you talking about? I’m not even 'murican. Take your meds, dude.
I mean, you can grandstand all you want while you have no platforms to safely do it on. Pretty sure having working products for privacy is more important to activism than one guy being an asshole.
I’m…honestly surprised you can be on lemmy when you damn products over singular people. Just cause I know there’s people who have tried to dissuade others from lemmy over the developers. And in that case the people involved are even closer to the code than a CEO would be.
Technology and ethics and politics are not airgapped magically distinct things. Pretending that they are is a strategic political choice you are actively making.
Yawn… I’m tired of this shit. You people are really ridiculous. I’m going to just block you. Enjoy your cognitive dissonance and your virtue signaling.
What is beyond my understanding is why every fucking time someone posts some relevant TECHNICAL info or question about that browser there’s always someone else, which appears to be less smart than an amoeba, that feels the need to write the same exaggerate and OT bullshit about the CEO.
Your friendly reminder that the Brave CEO is Mozillas old CEO, who was fired from Mozilla for being unapologetically homophobic.
Since everyone else is piling on negatively, I appreciated your friendly reminder.
Worse than merely being homophobic, as he financially supported politicians and causes that worked to prevent equal rights.

So?
What I care about in this story is the technical issues.
Well technically the CEO would have an issue with you if you were gay
Lmao
Then you can not act on it and those of us who care about such things can. Does that bother you?
I mean it’s derailed the entire thread so pretty much nobody is talking about the removed feature anymore.

If you’re a real person then you’re very unlikable and antisocial
If you’re a shill against Brave then you’re bad at your job. I’m going to check Brave out now because of your offensive and unlikable behavior
I can assure you I am not in any way impacted by your decision to use or not use Brave
“People want to talk about the things they care about when they should be talking about the things I care about!”
All moderators in a nutshell?
O…kay? I don’t really care lmao

I don’t. But “originally made by” and “currently being run by” are, in my opinion, two different things
Wait why are you on the privacy community when you don’t care about the parts that are specifically related to privacy?

Pay no attention to the butthurt shills.

Nah. I care. You dont speak for me. I cant tell if you’re a shill for Brave or a MAGAt or both.
Wow. The internet must be really rough for you if people don’t wear labels so you know who to hate before learning a damn thing about them!
Yeah, it’s terrible when an entire group of people are discriminated against for a label.
…

It’s 2024 you should know this is a terrible thing to say to people.

frankly, I dont trust an aggressive homophobe with my privacy
Yeah that’s rarely the only trait someone has that I find objectionable. Homophobia tends to come in a cluster with other shithead opinions
I’m…honestly surprised you can be on lemmy when you damn products over singular people. Just cause I know there’s people who have tried to dissuade others from lemmy over the developers. And in that case the people involved are even closer to the code than a CEO would be.
Lemmy is one of the least “owned by a single person” projects online.
That’s the entire reason most of us are on Lemmy. Fuck spez.
I mean yeah, but Spez we know for a fact actually did something.
🤔 look, I’m not defending bigotry….
But an aggressive homophobe seems like the type to be highly motivated to care deeply about working privacy tools these days
So who exactly do you trust?
So when brave pay you do they direct deposit or do you get a paper cheque?
deleted by creator
😂😂😂 yes, because I made a joke I’m being paid by brave. You got me!
Question is, who’s paying you to get so butthurt over it?
Firefix just venmo’d me 50¢ to tell you to fuck off lol
Don’t feed the troll
Bigots are privacy experts. The proof is in the radioactive pudding.
Yeah, so committed to privacy that he built it on chromium
Technology and ethics and politics are not airgapped magically distinct things. Pretending that they are is a strategic political choice you are actively making.
Ok. I’m a bad person because I enjoy using a given browser. I get that.
Another one that goes on my ignore list. Bye.
If that’s what you feel is the case if you don’t separate politics from technology then that sounds like a personal problem to address.

In the imagination of upvotes-hungry virtue-signaling people, of course.
Do you hate the Brave CEO for doing the same thing as the Mozilla CEO, but with even less restraint?
Or are you just whining in hopes that nobody will question whether you’re being a hypocrite
Yawn… I’m tired of this shit. You people are really ridiculous. I’m going to just block you. Enjoy your cognitive dissonance and your virtue signaling.
What an ironic thing to post
Well, you’re wrong.
