Yeah I’m kind of puzzled by it too lol. I wish they had just kept their original solution of using Macs to run iMessage. Perhaps if they had gotten popular it still would have been blocked, but their whole strategy of being super open about it is odd. I suppose they thought they could fight it but evidently that wasn’t the case.
Overall though I agree with the post, the app is really nice, the new android version is super slick and if they can get all the other connections working locally like they want, it’ll be even better
Am I wrong or is this article 3 years old?
I feel the same way. I end up being in 30 or so different Pokemon ROM hack servers just to get the patch files for the games. Very frustrating to have to do that when there are websites dedicated to hosting these files
Unfortunately seems like this won’t help that, if they expect you to be on the server to get the files. The article says the links will be auto refreshed daily, so it’s only the links shared outside the server that won’t work after a day :(
I mean, the EEOC is literally suing them. Not sure what part you don’t believe. If you don’t believe that stuff actually happened there, did you read to the end of the article? It’s not the first time they’ve been accused of this
I see what you’re saying. I do agree that people should have the opportunity to be educated to at least a baseline understanding of some things. If for nothing else but to avoid being scammed.
I mean ideally I would just like these companies to be held responsible for doing shady stuff behind the scenes, I don’t think having easy to understand UIs (and as a result, a bit obfuscated from what’s actually happening) and such have to be a bad thing. But maybe it’s too idealistic to want that and expect companies to actually be held accountable if the obfuscation is hiding bad stuff
This seems needlessly gatekeepy to me. Are you saying everyone using technology needs to learn exactly how it all works? People aren’t allowed to just use the tools provided to them? Like are cameras worse now that you can just point and shoot vs having to go through many steps for the photo to maybe turn out ok?
Oh sick!! I was already on the $10/month plan. This is great news!!!
I think it’s supposed to become just normal element when it gets feature parity with current element
Not that I know of unfortunately. It’s been a while since I’ve been on iOS so I may be wrong, but I believe all browsers in iOS are actually webkit under the hood (what safari runs on). So any fork of Firefox for iOS would also be just that, quite different from desktop or Android Firefox. I did hear the due to some rule changes Mozilla may be working on a non webkit version of Firefox for iOS but that remains to be seen
Yes, it does. It allows you to log into your Firefox account. Ive been doing it and it syncs just like the official app
This is true, but I encourage people to check out either mull browser or fennec. Both forks of Firefox on Android with privacy enhancements, the ability to use any Firefox store addon (this may be in release now I am not 100% sure) and access to about:config. I’ve not found stability issues with them either
I’ve been using fennec as my main browser for a long while now and it’s great
That is quite unfortunate. However it seems like it could lead to more affordable gpus that do well enough? That would be nice at least
