Tbh a lot of their decisions makes it seem like they’re just more interested in enterprise customers than anything else, which may be coloring their CEO’s political views as well

To me, the point is less about him being MAGA and more about him alienating a massive portion of his userbase and then completely botching the PR response by doubling down and failing to apologize or seemingly even understand why what he said matters to people.

Also his either inability to understand that Gail Slater sucks complete ass or his refusal to understand that fact. A leader in privacy should not be praising someone like her and celebrating the departure of Lina Khan. The discussion about whether it’s incompetence or maliciousness is less important to me.

And to repeatedly fail to update their github with the latest source code for their mobile apps, and to not have their apps on f-droid, and to not support notifications of any kind on a degoogled android OS, and to not support monero payments, and to add a Zoom button to everyone’s calendar by default with no disclaimer about using Zoom, and to limit custom domain aliases.

Honestly I think potentially a bigger factor is that there are very few manufacturers who sell machines with linux preinstalled. Very few people have ever installed an OS before or have any desire to do so.

Also there is plenty of software with no real linux alternative even today unfortunately.

Sure, but the point of the video is that the email requirement is not that big a deal for most people

Proton will often if not always require an email or phone number for verification when signing up for a free account. It’s not hard to find people complaining about this on forums.

Do you know any alternative to forgetful browsing? Basically the only thing keeping me. Just so much more convenient always-on incognito mode.

Also the fact that I can just turn off all the stuff that makes them money.

Also I don’t expect manifest v2 support on ungoogled chromium to be reliable.

Edit: just remembered this exists: https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete. Currently trying it out with ironfox.

Edit2: Apparently LibreWolf has this button to add websites to the exclusion list for cookie deletion on exit if you click the lock button
