Yes, exactly. They already know that fines for monopoly is more expensive that half a billion to spare to mozilla, lol.

Such a bad time to live.

I only have hope to Ladybird ๐Ÿž now ๐Ÿฅบ

Unfortunately, there are the ame stuff about Firefox too. Mozilla Foundation is such a corrupt organization with extreme shady finances.

Foundation's main income is royalties by google: 567M per year.

Donations: 7M (which almost goes to the CEO's bonuses)

the CEO gets 700K salary and 4.6M bonuses. Lmao.

I'd suggest, using Firefox but not donating to them.

I never understand why people prefer Vivaldi over, let's say, Chrome. I personally use FF with hardened security, but if I had no chance, I'd rather give my data to Google, not a browser company with an unknown business model and bloat.

Vivaldi is weird, I once talked with their CEO over on Mastodon (they are active there, which is a good sign, probably), it still felt shady, sadly.

Yes. It totally has to come from the government. No way companies alone will do any good for their employees and respect their time.

Take the 6 or 8 can holder plastic thingy (that turtles and fishes always get tangled up). In the EU, it is forbidden to use them. So, companies like Coca cola don't implement them. But in the US, there are no laws stating that, so they continue selling with that shit.

Without the government backing them, employees are just numbers in sheets for companies. Nothing more.

Yes, it is simplified. But basically this is what happens every time. The pattern is the same.

[โ€“] alvanrahimli@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You are correct, but unfortunately, this is what happens in reality.

They are legally obliged to, lmao. After companies become public, they have to maximize profits, if not, shareholders can simply vote to fire whomever they want. Look at every company on earth. They all with the same road. from facebook, google, to soon-to-be-public reddit.

[โ€“] alvanrahimli@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

This is very true. We had to fix all the shit happens to our systems and stuff. But now, they have perfected by implementing this restrictive environments like mac os, chrome os, and stuff like this (windows is trying to implement same thing these days too). So, their devices don't break. They don't have to learn how to fix that.

Nowadays kids don't even understand basic file structure, lmao.

Klaus seems like a fine dude

unfortunately it is not the case for most of countries. For example, here, in Azerbaijan, rural public transport basically doesn't exist, and in capital city - Baku - schedules, traffic, prices... They all suck. We only got underground metro, but as that is only sane transport, everyone uses it and on critic hours it also suck. Sadly.

When Sync got released, I was feeling guilty using it (as a jerboa user). But over time, I got used to it. It makes me use lemmy on my phone too, so I still consider this step in a better direction.

Functionality wise, I dislike icons and app icon on jerboa.

The traffic indeed increased. It was the same for twitter too. Elon did report that twitter usage is at an all time high now.

The main reason is probably people getting interested in controversy. E.g. me. I was visiting reddit maybe once a month, but after these changes, I was visiting it daily.

Anti-advertisement is also an advertisement.
