How has climate change impacted you, personally?

"The privacy invading feature that was patched into your browser and silently turned on by default was announced on our browser's blog 2 years ago so why are you so mad?"

My dude I'm probably in the top 1% of humans alive advocating for your product and I have never read your fucking blog because even I think "keeping up on the blog of the browser I use" is a fucking weirdo move

Google has removed features letting advertisers exclude kids games because toddlers generate tons of accidental ad clicks they get to charge businesses for.

Puritanism is really on another level of indoctrination of children, purity culture needs to be stopped

ADHD!?

Ha!

Could an ADHD person doโ€ฆ THIS?!

Got a new render done of Bubblegum done by my friend Joki! (Links to find them in a response to this post)

David and I were extremely conscious of the rise of Facebook in Tumblr's early days, and specifically designed it NOT to want or display your real name anywhere.

It was in direct response to that trend.

We wanted Tumblr to be a place where you could write as whoever you wanted to be, with no forced associations with people you knew in "real life" and no discoverable links to your โ€œreal" identity.

Anonymity isn't without its issues, but people need outlets like that.

@mcc Google Chrome, or even degoogled Chromium, is NOT "a more privacy-conscious browser". It's 1000x worse. Yes this is (yet another) betrayal by Mozilla management clowns, but in browsers like in politics, "X betrayed us" doesn't justify "so we should turn to Y who was 1000x worse to begin with".

if you have to make your feature opt-out because people wouldn't opt-in then you shouldn't be making that feature

Chances are that you might have heard about #Firefox "Privacy Preserving Attribution for Advertising". I've been working for Mozilla for 12 years and I've learned about it here on the fediverse, not only because I haven't been paying much attention, but because internal comms have been occupied with other stuff. So let's talk about something I feel Mozilla desperately needs: transparency. ๐Ÿงต 1/11

So this, from Firefox, is fucking toxic: mstdn.social/@Lokjo/1127724969

You might be aware Chromeโ€” a browser made by an ad companyโ€” has been trying to claw back the limitations recently placed on ad networks by the death of third-party cookies, and added new features that gather and report data directly to ad networks. You'd know this because Chrome displayed a popup.

If you're a Firefox user, what you probably don't know is Firefox added this feature and *has already turned it on without asking you*
