But no, matrix is not fediverse, it’s not compatible and will never be (my opinion) because the commercial entity behind the matrix standards has no intention to open up that much the matrix ecosystem.
not compatible with what? ActivityPub? that’s no different from XMPP
and which part of the matrix ecosystem is not open?
that probably depends on the blocklists used, like with ublock
fingerprinting can be based on detecting what resources are blocked, and sometimes also how are they blocked. but blocking will become the baseline, so nefarious companies will have less of chance to tell the difference
still it wasn’t blocking ads, and even I as a poweruser was not aware that I could add externally maintained ad blocklists
Waterfox has a much smaller market share and much smaller budget, and was able to clear this with search partners just by promising not to block ads on them by default.
my point is not actually about search providers, but more generally websites intentionally breaking support for gecko based browsers. waterfox itself is too little, most developers don’t even know about it I think. but firefox is the flagship/reference gecko browser, with more of a measurable number of users. if they implement a good ad blocker in the base browser, that could discourage advertising related sites from serving/supporting this browser.
brave is different in that it uses chromium, which the sites just happen to support already because of chrome. but firefox support is often not a priority even today
Rust is faster than JavaScript
isn’t ublock’s filtering compiled to webassembly?
Actual ad blocking is something Firefox users have been begging Mozilla to do
seems a bit dangerous though to risk for a browser with so small market share
where I live its mandatory for all sales to be registered live with the tax office
can I ask which continent?
oh yes I would
how do serial numbers get on the blacklist?
how do you do that on samsungs?
what is your recommendation?
no they didn’t, yes it could have happened:
gcc is not a dead project. it is continuously maintained. its improvements can be influenced by other projects like rust
I think they didn’t enshrine the right to end to end encryption, it’s just that they did not renew the temporary law allowing voluntary scanning for tech companies
yes, it was that the phone was saving notifications to a database, because the notification history feature was not disabled by the user. but that affects non-push notifications too, and it only becomes a problem when your phone is compromised (malware, including police malware)
but if you don’t trust your phone with not leaking your notifications, you shouldn’t trust it not leak what you typed in and what you watch on it either, because the operating system has access to all of these too. in that case you are looking for a better phone brand, maybe even a custom rom that’s known for privacy
they didn’t say otherwise
preferring Rust over Rust? what do you mean?
do you think loosely typed python is easy to read and maintain?
first result now in ddg
Edit: I figured out what was confusing me, the MEP just recently enshrined E2EE, which I remembered as a big win on the same level of no age verification.
oh that sounds interesting! could you throw a link?
I think there can be a difference. github encourages this behavior, even provides the tools for it. but if the forgejo community stands strongly against it from the beginning (users reporting true slop, moderators deleting and banning them, admins defederating from intentional slop sources), then maybe that kind will stay away from the platform
