Its not there for me

Its not there for me

Aren't we all?! /s

Always found it weird how it was so pushed in tons of privacy guides or in privacy tips. It’s as if they were just parroting each other without actually thinking why it would or not work at all.

Welcome to the internet, where blogspam is pushed to make $$ without fact checking.

Could you appeal it and offer to change the email to a non-banned domain? Because that's quite severe, your GH account has all your repos, issues, and repo forum posts.

Yeah pretty much, its a way to sending and receiving emails without giving out your real email address. Instead you give aliases than end with "@simplelogin.com", to protect your privacy and which are then forwarded to the email you provide to simplelogin. The received emails have a different sender address, for instance instead of forums@macrumors.com, you see: the forums_at_macrumors_com_randomcharactershere@simplelogin.co.

You can actually reply to forums_at_macrumors_com_... and simplelogin will forward the email.

European privacy laws go brrrr

removing yet another security feature theatre.

DNT was always just an honor system, and can be used as another data point for fingerprinting.

Maybe, what makes u say that?

That doesn't have a link to the history & bookmarks manager.

Now I got downvotes in all three productivity communities I posted on:

• https://lemmy.world/post/22668165
• https://lemmy.world/post/22668215
• https://lemmy.world/post/22668166

I think that's a stretch

I don't think that XKCD applies here, browser bookmark features rarely change.

Floorp is fully open source too, they even have documentation for compiling it: https://docs.floorp.app/docs/building/

For the record: https://docs.zen-browser.app/faq#why-cant-zen-browser-play-drm-protected-content

Zen Browser currently lacks DRM-support, because it does not have a Widevine license. Acquiring such a license requires the payment of large fees (at least $5,000). ...

Although I understand the reasoning beyond the language used in this post, I’m sad to read that hardened privacy is considered a power user thing.

What's really sad is the fact you need to make a bunch of convenience tradeoffs and go well out of your way for improved privacy, and on a browser that already has a lot of built-in features for privacy. And a downside of using a Firefox fork is not getting the latest Firefox updates ASAP, you have to wait for the fork to update. It goes to show how privacy-invasive the web is.

No, Midori is based on Floorp. https://github.com/goastian/midori-desktop

"Midori initially uses the Gecko/Firefox code under the Floorp Browser project."

While dev of Zen Browser is faster, I've faced way less bugs than in Floorp

I keep a bunch of cp images on my computer to do the trick /s

No way in hell would Proton make a Chromium-based browser, the only way that would not be hypocritical is if they fully open sourced it (you could compile it yourself), and maintained their own fork completely devoid of Google tracking and telemetry.
