I'm convinced Google uses its reCAPTCHA to promote Chrome

  • Are you talking about IPFS?

    • I'm convinced Google uses its reCAPTCHA to promote Chrome

  • I am not against JavaScript. I sometimes use JavaScript and I don't see the wrongs in that. What I am concerned is why so many websites use 3rd party JavaScript. This is disgusting because you sell your visitors out. Besides you can't control the content of 3rd party scripts and most of them sell your data and spy on you.

  • The thing that annoys me so much is why every damn website has to depend on gOoGle scripts to function. E.g : most of website depend on googleapis or ajax.googleapis. why don't you just stop hotlinking everything to 3rd party shits. This is basically spread Google's domination on web. Remember, those 3rd party libraries are not Free. They take visitors data and make you dependent on their services. So Google has become the gatekeeper of many websites.

    I have a website and I coded everything by hands. No 3rd party JavaScript and other 3rd party BS. It makes my website run so damn fast

  • Nope xmpp is still going strong. I've been using xmpp over whtsapp for a while and I like it so much. You can even make a voice and video call. The best thingis it is federated just like fediverse

  • Matrix is bloated, eating VPS resources and it's tied to Israeli Intel. Xmpp is better than bloated matrix. Besides I don't trust matrix very much. Most of users use main matrix instance and don't bother to spread the servers to avoid centralization

    • What is your preferred daily driver distribution?

  • I respect my freedom more than anything and I never use CPU newer than core2duo since it has ME

    • Is Google going to make Android a nightmare?

  • If android were GPL 3 the users would be protected from "tivoization" aka locked hardware. Too bad Google don't want that happen

    • what got you into privacy in the first place?

  • Mr. Richard Stallman. I respect him so much. He stays 100% true to his missions and values

    • Google seems to be blocking API access for Piped video servers

  • why use proprietary when Peertube is free and libre

    • What is your preferred daily driver distribution?

  • Trisquel GNU / Linux. The kernel is 100% libre so you can do your computing in freedom.

    • When you just need to give up and try a different skill

  • I like your art

    • The era of cheap streaming is officially over

  • With streaming services you have to pay and you don't own it, with torrents you only have to pay for internet fee and you'll own it forever.

    • Which proprietary software do you prefer over their open-source alternatives, and why?

  • As a free software supporter, I don't use properietary software. Sure there are some inconveniences but I won't trade my freedom for all proprietary software in the world.

    • Your choice of browser matters — Google's Web DRM and the open internet

  • "Sure, Chromiums code is available and you can modify and redistribute it. But if you want to send your changes to the main project so that more people may benefit from it, it is ultimately Google’s decision. This is the problem with projects that are not community-run."

    Google is asshole. This shows than NOT all open source codes are free as in freedom. Stallman is right.

    • Amazon starting to track and penalize workers who work from home too much

  • Why would all employers make such a big deal of WFH? If I were them I'd let anyone work at home as long as they do their jobs properly I don't care

    • "Web Environment Integrity" is an all-out attack on the free Internet | Defective by Design

  • You guys are the culprits. You love chromium right? And chromium is from google. And have you stopped for moment to think why chromium is free and good? Because Google wants you to get addicted to it. Google wants you to not feel comfortable with other browsers such as palemoon, librefox or Firefox. Once the majority of users use chromium, more and more websites will only work for chromium. And now Google dominates the web with its WEI thanks to majority of users who uses chromium. Web is not open anymore to begin with. It's dead since chromium took over.

    Before chromium Apocalypse, there were many browsers engines: presto (opera), msie, gecko, goanna (palemoon) but now 99,9% of browsers are Chromium.

    Google is very smart, give them free product with great features (chromium) and when the product takes off, subjugate the users with proposed standards such as WEI, FLOC etc.

    Google never give a damn about users. Chromium is free because it is only tool for web domination

    • PSA: Intel Graphics Drivers Now Collect Telemetry By Default

  • Believe or not, I still use core2duo CPU and GeForce 5300 and I run free operating system because newer technology contains shit

    • So tired of Adobe. They're part of the problem.

  • Digital RESTRICTIONS management / DRM is the core of Adobe

    • Do you trust Brave company and their products: Browser, Search, VPN, etc..?

  • Firefox is like a full blown feature creeps. I mainly use palemoon because it lets me to save memory while browsing the web. Palemoon is like lynx, simple and doesn't have too many features like webgl, webrtc and so on. Only JavaScript and ajax
