Firefox now offers the option to collect a minimal amount of data for them and inform the network indirectly.

This is a good thing for the end user.

I'm not sure that collecting data is actually a good thing for the end user, but to each their own I suppose.

Can you point to where I said that Mozilla is as bad as Google?

I don't think you'll be able to.

Mozilla has been called out for concerning things in the past, as has Canonical. I think it's okay to call companies out for doing shady things, and I think it's okay to hold them accountable.

I don't think it's unreasonable to be concerned.

I wonder what political party he is affiliated with. It's really a mystery, isn't it?

There is no indication that they’re blocking adblockers or taking away firefox customization.

Yet.

We don't know that after they are deeper and deeper into the advertising industry, that they don't just go ahead and do it.

Remember how Google wasn't always evil? Money changes companies (and people). Advertising money could very well change Mozilla. Plus, remember, these statements are them telling you the public version, things that they are claiming will happen. Often times what goes on behind the scenes is very different.

I don't think it's unreasonable to be concerned by this.

Cookies are used for storing data, fwiw.

My current company treats effort the same as time. I can appreciate that they're at least honest about that lol

My first and third job had daily standup, my second and fourth job don't have daily standup. I'm on my fourth job. I love not having standup.

Looks like I was mistaken, then. Looks like .ml isn't the largest, it's just the one run by the two Lemmy maintainers, which for me (combined with .one keeping going down when I was actively using it) made it my home instance.

That one isn't the largest, no. The largest is .ml and it's run by the two Lemmy maintainers.
