although it’s somewhat annoying because some sites break
This is the problem with hardened browsers. You spend too much time trying to make them work, or have to use other browsers to view certain content anyway.
Man, your comment encompasses Firefox perfectly.
I switched from Firefox to Chrome back when Chrome first came out. Switched back to Firefox after a bit, but Firefox was so slow and janky, and they screwed over all extensions, that I didn't last long before returning to Chrome. Switched to Edge Chromium, and now I am back on Firefox since the manifest v3 news.
Firefox is still jank. There's currently a bug that breaks label printing on Firefox, and despite many people reporting it to Mozilla, they just haven't fixed it or acknowledged it. The Android version is so clunky, and it has taken them years to release pull to refresh, and when they finally did, it's extremely buggy.
It's really a love/hate relationship with Mozilla lol
the market is saturated in Chromium-based browsers, and how every website seems to only support theses browsers
Outside of Google blocking some of their websites from Firefox (the only one I can think of currently is Stadia Bluetooth Mode), which websites do you find that only support Chrome? I haven't found any.
Firefox because of the manifest v3 crap.
Before I switched back to Firefox, I was using Edge. Edge is probably the best browser out there currently. It has so many amazing features built in that make every other browser look featureless.
Even though manifest v3 is on hold, I don't care. I am staying on Firefox. Even though Mozilla broke label printing a few months ago, and despite bug reports being submitted, they haven't fixed it. Mozilla is definitely REALLY slow at development. (It took years for Firefox on Android to get pull to refresh, and it's still a buggy mess lol)
F's in chat for Cube World.
I cannot stand SponsorBlock anymore. It's been abused so much, that any time any video even slightly mentions a brand, sponsor or not, it skips it.
I find that it breaks context in a lot of videos, and you end up missing important stuff. I especially find it to be true in LTT videos.
For me, SponsorBlock is disabled until they fix the abuse. There's a very clear difference between a SPONSOR and just mentioning an entity that exists on this planet.
Why is it bad to have multiple apps? Just like the dozen of Reddit apps on Android, competition is a good thing.
Plus not everyone wants the same UI, and trying to make a UI that fits everyone is impossible. For example, I cannot stand Sync for Reddit, but I love Boost for Reddit.
Unpopular opinion: if finding an instance is too hard for you, maybe the federated internet just isn't for you.
I don't really agree with that take. With an attitude like that, Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc will never take off. You'll always be here screaming into the void because no one else will be around to chat.
Without making the on-boarding easier, Reddit, Meta, and Twitter will continue to screw everyone over.
There's nothing wrong with throwing someone in an instance to get them used to everything, especially when you are able to move your entire account to a different instance easily. It's not like you're locked down to the instance you were originally placed in.
I mean shit, I understand instances, but I gave up the first time I tried to join Mastodon because I was too lazy to sign up for an instance in my browser, and then copy the details into the app. Wasn't the lack of knowing, it was the multistep process that felt like a waste of time.
From what I understand, Reddit started keeping an edit history a few years ago to counteract those scripts.
That's actually cool, but this one is funny.
Even so, that's lame behaviour. I understand deleting comments if they are promoting their app nonstop, but to silence people you think are just mentioning an alternative app is crazy.
That reminds me, before I got perma IP-banned, I got account banned for a comment I made.
It was on a post of someone who died from colon cancer. I commented how important it is to get your ass checked, and that account was perma-banned for "bullying".
It's quite interesting to see all of the hate speech and terrible comments on Reddit that don't seem to get picked up by Reddit, yet here I am, IP perma-banned for the most ridiculous things lol
Neither. I was banned from /r/Android because I prefer a Google Pixel over a Samsung device (yay, corrupt mods!)
I forgot, and I commented using one of my many alts. I was temporarily suspended from Reddit as a whole for "ban evasion".
My friends visited, who have Reddit accounts, and when they connected to my WiFi Reddit immediately perma-banned ALL of us, including all of my brand accounts for my company.
Reddit allowing random strangers to essentially get you perma-banned because you prefer a different phone is ridiculous. 🥲
