Firefox has a lot of issues, but maybe we don't have any other option. (www.bleepingcomputer.com)

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk on US Politics

FUCK U.S. politics creeping in every non-US politics thread.

Elaborate.

lemmy.world is full of former redditors that are largely responsible with bringing US political spam to lemmy as a result of the reddit API change exodus. Before (allegedly, I joined sdf some time after the exodus) lemmy largely consisted (and is developed by) leftists. Opening All on lemmy.world basically feels like you're on the front page of reddit, with all the same cancerous pro-DNC propaganda spam.

Ugh man, that's true. Would you say that sdf.org offers a better experience content-wise?

We have unixsurrealism! Fox news (news for foxes), Bun alert system and cool stuff about retro hardware. Any politics involved are often behind rhetoric and never seen as spam.

No, webkit is for all those anarchist, anti-establishment people. On a serious note, Gnome Web (Epiphany) is pretty amazing. Other than a few stuff like, Netflix not working (thanks W3C for giving us DRM /s. Also, google and widevine are the worst thing in tech) I have not yet found any particular issue. A very limited number of firefox extensions also work on it.

The Nyxt browser -- webkit as rendering engine, extensible by Common Lisp -- was making good progress, though its progress slowed down considerably lately; and there are a few 'showstoppers' preventing everyday usage, at least for me.

Americans, unable to understand anything if they cannot delineate it in white vs black.
