American non-profit open source browser from scratch is certainly better, still not it.

Even though I’ll probably switch :p I follow their youtube channel. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good enough and all that.

Facebook Container comes to mind, they’ve done this before already.

I mean truly independent of USA code base. Everything is still relying on upstream Chromium or Firefox with superficial tweaks and gimmicks. The maintainers of LibreWolf and Fennec which are what I’m using are more like game mod devs.

If ecosia+qwant actually forked from either and broke compatibility going their own path I’d consider them non USA. I know those two are working together on a search indexer and I’m very excited about that coming to fruition because that’s more what I’m talking about and eager to support.

I realise what a mammoth challenge this is :( Probably needs EU funding like the search indexer.

IMO MasterCard leadership already agreed with the nazis and were just looking for an excuse to act.

I just want a web browser that’s not based in the USA.

Oh yeah the blog post is helper not doomer, but actually your point still stands anyways.

Daniel still has the RetroArch trademark registered in his personal name and continues to oversee the project and that’s enough for me that he’s still in a mangerial role, but you’re right in that the last shitty thing I heard about him is fucking up netplay in 2022.

I hate TwinAphex’s guts so I won’t use Retroarch/Libretro.

I got mednafen standalone for PS1.

Dolphin is the poster child example of changing licences properly. It was a painful job just getting in touch with all the long inactive devs.

Defending a dick head dev they know nothing about or their history and insulting end users under false assumption. Overly self righteous.

Yep, reddit as fuck.

Please. Stenzek is smart but unhinged.

Yet 1000 weirdos in Australia will have more sway, curiously.

Besides being slow I think the issues with darkweb can be overcome simply through general interest growing. Currently I personally have no real motivation to use such technologies beyond the decentralized fediverse on clearnet. But if things keep going the way they are, then I’ll have motivation. I’m into digital media archiving so if that gets pushed further underground then I will have reason to bother.

I am paying attention of course, Canada is likely to copy cat EU/UK/AUS. Just as a general rule of thumb, but this stuff is in the works here too specifically.

Another thing to consider: https://handshake.org/

“Decentralized naming and certificate authority. An experimental peer-to-peer root naming system.”

Well thinking about it, your assumption is probably the norm nowadays. I’m the weirdo still visiting places running vbulletin and shit lol.

I mean specific forums for debate and not the general social web, but you probably just wanted to vent and that’s fair.

I’ve been using it differently than the article suggests I guess. So far I’ve only called people who blatantly use LLM instead of their own words on debate forums “clankers.”
