@lemizy brendan eich is known to have some conservative views so the mastodon-type pretends he doesnt exist and nothing he can do can ever be relevant
But as @prahou is an artist I'll give him benefit if the doubt that he is making a meta-commentary that there are penalties for liking this privacy-oriented web browser

Chrome is Republican and Firefox is Democratic. I don't make up the rules

Mozilla, in its infinite wisdom 🤡, has decided to snub Chrome's Prompt API because, clearly, the world needs more browser wars over who can generate the most "standards" 🙄. Meanwhile, GitHub's grand parade of #buzzwords continues to spin like a tap-dancing cat on a hot tin roof 🐱🔥.

#BrowserWars Next Generation:
Late 1990s: ”Works best in Netscape Navigator."
Early 2000s: “Best viewed in 1024x768.”
Late 2000s till early 2020s: FREEDOMMMMMM!!
2026: “Use Chrome or Firefox.”
@kagihq's Orion has become my everyday web front-end. If your company doesn't want me to use that kind of _actually_ safe, secure, and #Privacy-supporting #Browser, I don't want to use your product. Simple, really.

I have this funny habit of holding onto my internet history - I just love knowing exactly when I created my accounts across the web. While digging through some old emails today, I found an absolute gem.
Here is my original registration email for my vivaldi.net account, dated January 30, 2015. I looked it up, and Vivaldi's very first Technical Preview was released to the public on January 27, 2015. I signed up literally three days after they launched!
It is crazy to think I have been with them for over 11 years now. Watching Vivaldi grow from that very first preview build into the powerhouse it is today has been such a cool ride. Proud to be a Day One user!

I was just reading a great piece on how the browser wars shaped the internet (https://hackernoon.com/how-the-browser-wars-changed-the-landscape-of-the-internet), and it hit me with a massive wave of nostalgia.
I had been using Opera since my school days. The classic Presto-engine Opera was truly ahead of its time. Does anyone else remember Opera Turbo, Opera Unite, Opera Link, and the original Speed Dial? The competitors had nothing even close to that back then. Yes, websites occasionally broke because of the different engine, but I absolutely loved that browser, even if I couldn't always explain why.
When the original Opera essentially ended with version 12.18, it was a sad moment. But the second I heard about @Vivaldi launching, I immediately jumped on their first Technical Previews. I was so relieved that the spirit of the old Opera didn't actually die - it just reformatted and got a new name.
I have followed them ever since, and lately, I've been using Vivaldi a lot more actively. I cannot recommend it enough.
It is incredibly convenient and customizable, exactly like the good old Opera. I am even planning to buy some of their merch to support the team and spread the word.If you are looking for an alternative, just give it a try. Even though it uses the same Chromium engine under the hood, the experience is infinitely better than Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.

In other news, it seems that Microsoft is resorting to its old Internet Explorer playbook with Edge. Only this time AI is also in the mix. :(

💥🖱️ Ah, the eternal quest to make Firefox's right-click menu not resemble a dystopian spreadsheet. Somehow, in the galaxy-brain epic of tweaking about:config, 24 rows of chaos were conjured, and two of them are like your ex—grayed out and unhelpful. 🤯✨ Bravo, Joshua, you've single-handedly turned a menu into a game of Minesweeper.

🚀🤖 Oh look, #Anthropic has distilled *something* at scale, but who cares? #JavaScript isn't available, and the website is basically screaming "please, dear user, bang your head on the keyboard until it all works." 🥴🔨 All hail the mighty browser wars of 2026, where the true victor is... confusion! 🏆

Chrome's throwing down the gauntlet in the browser wars with new productivity features! Split View, PDF annotations, and 'Save to Chrome' are on the way.
Are these enough to keep you from switching tabs, or is your browser loyalty unwavering?

Ok, I'm on Gamer+ using Vivaldi. If firefox had dedicated to no AI Slop I might still be using it. Instead I'm using Libre Wolf and checking out Vivaldi.

Ну #Vivaldi, ну как же так? Вот есть в менюшке пунктик отключения звука у вкладки. Но никаких иконок, показывающих, что вкладка издает звук, или звук выключен — нетути. Всё для людей, да? 🤔

Oh, wow! 🎨 A painting that looks different in Chrome than in Safari? Shocking! I guess browsers have artistic preferences now. 🖼️ Maybe next we'll get browser wars based on taste in art. 🍷💻
