That doesn't sound better, for an end user anyway.

It sounds like the advantages are really for the instance owners.

Thank you. I need to read this.

Thanks for the info, but serious question, why would I want to? Why is it better than Lemmy?

This is what confuses me. If they are following Lemmy instances anyway wouldn't it just use a Lemmy client?

So the difference between PieFed and Lemmy mostly becomes interface? Or is it the server backend?

Does it handle the battery usage better? I had to remove Element because it was killing my battery.

My family is all on iMessage. I told them if they didn't install Signal I wouldn't reply to their texts.

At first, whenever they texted I would just reply with something that looked automated like "This user is no longer available via text message. Please install Signal if you wish to communicate."

Forgetting politics, I liked Brave. But sometimes they do seem a little shady. I'm loving Librewolf even more, though there's no Android version. It does sync with Firefox and Mull though.

Sync works great over here. It even syncs history which is great because I use an extension on the laptop to limit history to 28 days and that becomes synced with Android without an additional extension.

On mobile I only use New Pipe for videos. Admittedly, I don't do much YouTube but I haven't noticed any problems on my laptop.

It is my default. I use ublock and Dark Background Light Text extensions. And the reader view is better than any chromium phone browser.

Much like librewolf, my favorite desktop browser

Thank you for your effort, but I honestly already knew all this. What I want to know is why one couldn't simply report 60hz to fingerprinters while, in reality, maintaining the highest possible rate in the browser.

I don't want to turn off resist fingerprinting but that refresh rate ruins the browser for me.

I would use mull if they only increased that refresh rate. But as it is now, I use Firefox on mobile in the strictest tracking protection mode and UBO.

I love librewolf too but there is no mobile version. And don't say mull because that refresh rate makes it unusable.

I agree with you on this much of the time. Especially on sites today that have ads. The fediverse doesn't have that problem.

But the mobile web interface isn't that great yet for Lemmy. Pixelfed's web interface is so good I debate whether or not to use an app but Lemmy isn't there yet.

As far as I know, you are correct. My main browser is Librewolf and search engine is DDG. But I still use Brave when I rarely need a chromium browser or alternate search engine and he gains nothing from that.

The gay marriage thing is not a good look now, but it's worth noting that he's not trying to abolish it today.

And the referral link things is also old and it was walked back after it was discovered.

Choose your tools based on your needs because everyone will have some politics you don't like.

I use Summit for now. I went through quite a few others but this one is a keeper.
