The main one is my timesheet software which only works via legacy IE webapp (seriously). The other is Google Meet, which doesn't have full features in Firefox. So I'm forced to open that one in a Chrome tab
He didn't just vote for it. He donated and doubled down on it, despite it being an acknowledgement he helped strip the rights of some of his own employees. People are free to disapprove of that behavior
His political donations suggest a broader lack of moral values, which is borne out by the business model of his browser, which sought to steal ad space from websites and enable the broader economy of speculative tokens. Just suggests a lack of ethics all the way down
I have used it as a daily driver on PC and phone for years. It works great for me. There are compatibility issues that force me on Edge sometimes, but I try to keep those as short as possible.
A lot of people on Lemmy don't like bigots, they don't like crypto, they don't like scammy tracking and they don't like dishonesty. So I'm gonna fling that poo and point it out for as many people as possible, in case they don't know.
The two sides are not morally equal. Prop 8 was an awful, bigoted stain on California's history and he was unrepentant. I am glad he no longer is at Firefox. And Brave is a sketchy company that makes clear it was a good decision to give him the boot. I can support companies with moral stances I agree with and not support companies that do bad things.
I am a marine scientist and need a phone that can perform in the field. I know the new foldables are water resistant, but I would be worried about salt and grit getting up in that hinge and messing stuff up. So I don't think they're for me, though I'd really like to have one. My Note 20 Ultra is too small to comfortably jot notes on honestly.
I used K9 for years but recently switched to FairEmail. Works better in terms of auto-completing addresses, has better sever-side search. Previously it looked horrible compared to K9 but lately it has added Material You and other attractive theming options. It has a rather intimidating level of options but is very powerful. That being said, I still like K9 and will probably continue to check in as they add features and become part of Thunderbird.
Both K9 and FairEmail are really good in terms of being ad-free, privacy-respecting clients with unified inboxes, dark mode and other features most important to me. K9 has advantage of being totally free where FairEmail puts some key features behind a purchase, which I understand, as it's a solo developer.
Whether or not the software is good or not (I personally can't stand Teams) is not relevant. It's about whether a company is using its present market dominance to shoehorn itself into a new product segment. Teams is available by default in most o365 packages
That may be true, but it's a fork where I doubt any company has the capability to do the engine development needed to be totally independent from Google. There is a reason Apple and Mozilla are the only two alternative engines left. It costs a lot to develop a browser
I personally love Samsung. Have a Note20 Ultra still going strong, got a Tab S9 and Galaxy Watch 5 Pro in the last year. They are all so customizable out of the box using Good Lock and other software that it would be painful to switch. I find they all perform really well and the improvements of OneUI are appreciated. I like the Calendar, Browser (on tablet), Reminders and some other apps much more than Google's offerings.
How they pick cases is mysterious to me. I would go after them about Edge first, where they're doing real harm to Firefox, and Bing. Both of these are also pushed through Office. But maybe there are chat apps based in Europe that provide them jurisdiction, I don't know enough about it.

I do like Vivaldi. Continuing that Opera way of life, though without Presto sadly.
