I'm not sure when something counts as hype vibes and what the problem with that would be.
It's a pretty good editor, way faster than VSCode on my machine, but I'm also missing a bunch of features. Those seem unimportant enough compared to the speed for now, so I've switched, but switching editors is easy, so I might switch back later. And if other editors get on my radar, I might try them for a bit too. Hype or not, no real harm done.
I'm very curious how buggy it's going to be. (Obviously very during alpha, but I'm talking release.) They seem to be betting big on customisability, and a myriad of different setups is like a fly trap for bugs, in my experience.
But at the same time, a modern language like Rust provides lots of help to prevent a bunch of them, and they might be very talented programmers, so who knows!
I use Firefox, but the #1 complaint that's made me stop evangelizing it to random people is the endless, endless complaints that it's slow.
Part of the problem is that Chrome is so widespread that it's seen as the default, and thus anything that deviates from that is quickly blamed for any problems.
I heard someone tell an anecdote recently about why their daughter always ordered Domino's pizza for her friends. She said that if Domino's pizza is bad, her friends blame Domino's, whereas if pizza from elsewhere is bad, they blame her.
And then they made it a bloated mess and I went back to Firefox when they got their act together and opening the browser didn't tank ram usage
I don't think it was being turned into a bloated mess, as much as that it always was pretty slow, until Google started investing a lot in JS performance with the release of Chrome, and showed how fast it could be.
(Well, and as a result, websites started becoming more demanding, which did make browsers that didn't keep up slow down more.)
It's not hard to switch browsers, after all. And people know this. So of course they don't worry about it.
I think the author is lamenting this attitude: it's not hard to switch browsers, as long as those alternatives exist and remain viable. That gets less and less likely as fewer and fewer people use the alternatives.
They've committed to not changing any displayed text ("strings"), so that translators have time to translate everything.
So you agree with #1 but are upset I have not provided specifics...
No; I have claimed that it doesn't collect personal data. You're disputing that claim, but if you can't mention a single piece of data, then I'm not inclined to believe you. (Fakespot and Anonym are completely unrelated to PPA. I'm not necessarily interested in branching out to discussing those as well, though I expect that we're more aligned on them anyway.)
Regarding the claim that Mozilla is good and Google is bad, that's based on a presumption.
No, I'm claiming that Google's actions in the past have been worse than Mozilla's, and I have named concrete actions that Google has done that Mozilla has not.
But go on, keep on telling people to avoid Mozilla, and see if that'll bring us a better world.
Luckily Gecko still exists. And who knows, maybe Servo will make it one day (but the odds are stacked against both them and Ladybird anyway).
De vitamines? Maar is dat dan alles - dacht iemand, "wat wij nodig hebben is dit, maar dan met wat vitamines toegevoegd"? Waarom hebben we dan geen extra-vitamines-versie van alle andere producten? Wat maakt halvarine speciaal?
Ik Mozilla VPN, zelfde netwerk, en idd, werkt altijd.
Oh sorry, yeah I misread (and almost did it again just now) - I thought you mentioned that they made Firefox a bloated mess back when you switched to Chrome. Apologies!
