Firefox works fine. I have to admit though that it uses way too much memory

is that why it works fine? I mean, I know it uses too much memory, but is why it's comparable to chrome, because more memory usage means it's faster or something (I am a noob)

good, I think it's not FF's fault. I will delete this thread now. Doesn't seem to deserve the attention it's going to get from now on

It works now (even without pressing Ctrl + F5, a lot of chaos and a lot of randomness lately with FF!

it's "fast enough" alright, just not fast as brave or chrome. You know I have been using firefox for so long that I gave a search query on brave and it felt like it was lightning fast. I mean, I just pressed and enter and suddenly something unexpected happened, it loaded fast af and I was surprised. Firefox does load pages fast enough, but brave was lightning fast and that surprised me.

remotely modern hardware.

yeah have to disagree with you there. I bought a laptop very recently (a few months ago) and it was a new release equipped with everything one might think as "modern" firefox still can't beat brave or chrome.

You sound like an AI generated Firefox Ad.

Me no know what you mean

Since then I’ve been really enjoying the video pop out of opera.

another killer feature of FF I could not live without, FF has it too you know.

can anything be done legally about Chrome being the default browser on most android phones? I mean, there has to be some default browser but maybe Android manufacturers should be forced to pre-install a FOSS browser instead of chrome ig, idk (or maybe the user can be asked to install it when they are logging into their phones for the first time, this sounds better)

then you are much worse than that.

GUILTY

Cosmic justice is not a great idea and it hurts the people the left claims it helps. And I am saying this as a colored man who is pretty much at the buttom of this hierarchy

for the time being. I thank you for your support and help :)

edit: I refreshed firefox and except for one website, whatsapp and other websites seems to be working fine. Make sure you save the extensions and extension settings (and if you are not logged into your Mozilla account, everything else before you do it, even the themes, I lost a good theme because I didn't save it and even my mozilla account didn't sync it back)

Is there a need for this as I alone am not facing this issue? I mean, many people are and I think it was classified as a known bug.

mysogynism.

if fighting for equality and fighting against equity is misogynistic, I am one.

The rich are fucking us, not women. Don’t let yourself be made into their tool.

The rich probably get a better deal out of everything and I don't hate women, I love em lol. I am not a tool of anyone.

Waterfox is pretty bad compared to FF acc to me. I would live with this problem than switch :(

Fighting for equality, against discrimination and for a fairer world for us all is the only cause that actually makes sense atm imo.

Fighting for equity, as a man who's supposed to be at the bottom of the hierarchy, I spit on it.

Besides that, they‘re asking to amplify factual voices (instead of the extremes) which I find baffling that someone has to actually suggest this.

Because the actual definition of factual and their definition of factual differs. When they say factual voices, they mean, voices which they like.

Somewhat similar to feminists, when they say they just want equality (and I am ok with equality) they don't want equality, they want equity. They want quotas. Their definition of feminism and my definition of feminism varies. And people who say they want factual discourse have utterly disqualified themselves from saying that again, they just want their opposition to be censored. The last few years have proven that

what do you even mean by this?

good to hear someone on lemmy say what you just said!

I have an ulterior motive in mind. I don't like her and I don't like censoring people, left or right. I would have stood up for the right of a person on the left not to be censored (unless children were involved in it somehow), I was wondering if people here who obviously are of a left bent would give the people on the right the same privilege. This was the ulterior evil motive of mine

I did read the article. All of you are cherry-picking the transparency aspect and are ignoring the whole spirit of the article in the first place.

She is saying, deplatforming is just not enough, we need to do something so that Donald Trump and people like him didn't even have a chance to speak. She is not only defending deplatforming people but she's saying deplatforming doesn't go far enough.

We must cut their funding by going after their advertisers. The "transparency of platform algorithms" is basically to make sure that the voices Mitchell Baker thinks are wrong should not be amplified. She is asking for the amplification of "facts" i.e., what she thinks are facts.

I don't think anyone who wants to argue in good faith can read that article and come out with the assumption that she's asking for more transparency.

The transparency part is so that she can see and demonize people who support speech she doesn't support. The main spirit of the "deplatforming is just not enough, we need more" and the fact that you took away the transparency part (which isn't what you make it to be in the first place) while completely ignoring the We need more than deplatforming part is surprising.

The CEO of mozilla is asking for Censorship, plain and simple. I don't think that's very free speech, not very true to ideology behind FF and an open internet.

I am a conservative (an old school liberal) and I would have defended the left had this happened against someone like Biden or his supporters, if someone had called him a black supremacist or something. But, when the shoe is on the other foot, people like you are very comfortable turning a blind eye and when given an article asking for censorship commenting that she wants more "transparency"
