Many people would appreciate it if you reconsidered your policy on "AI" as it hurts not just your own software but many artists and people who are already living in harsh conditions. Any and all uses of it further these issues and its disappointing to see Firefox embrace it in any way.

Don't use Chrome or Edge like most of the world.

The Programmer’s Fulcrum 11 September, 2026

https://newsletter.mobileatom.net/the-programmers-fulcrum-11-september-2026/

Cette étude choc de #Mozilla prouve que #Windows manipule votre écran pour tuer #Firefox… mais pas en #Europe !
Votre PC #Windows vous manipule-t-il à votre insu ? La passionnante étude « Over The Edge 2.0 », publiée par #Mozilla, démontre comment #Microsoft utilise des designs trompeurs et l’IA Copilot pour étouffer #Firefox et saboter la libre concurrence. Enfin, pas partout, notamment en #Europe : merci le DMA ! 🦊🔓

#Linux :linux:
OSEZ LA LIBERTÉ ET DÉLIVREZ-VOUS DU MAL !

MidnightBSD 4.0.4 Released With Aged & Agectl For Age Verification/Attestation:
https://www.phoronix.com/news/MidnightBSD-4.0.4
(I wonder what the heck is going on in the project that they didn't want to comply, and then they suddenly do... Hopefully it won't happen to more currently non-compliant projects)

GhostBSD says no to age verification, but will probably comply with age attestation laws:
https://forums.ghostbsd.org/d/793-freebsd-and-age-verification/35
(Now that's pretty sad, GhostBSD was one of the systems I would consider if I ever decided to switch to BSD. I'll stay on Linux because there are quite a few distros who openly oppose this nonsense, but I'd like to see at least one BSD system fully opposing just in case)

#Firefox monte la garde.

Firefox estime que les entreprises devraient moins vous pister. Nous bloquons tout ce que nous pouvons. (Ouf ! Ils font tout ce qu'ils peuvent... ou pas 😅).

Au passage l'icône "tracking-protection-icon-box" heu 🤔 !!! Hé ben, il n'est plus le même et exit le cadenas (discrètement viré).

Je me demande quelles autres surprises nous réserve Firefox :firefox: 🤔

Reemplazando Mozilla Firefox

Como comenté anteriormente, estoy dejando de usar Firefox. Una condición del cambio es no usar un navegador basado en el motor de Google Chrome (el IE6 de éstos tiempos).

Acá comento cuáles he ido probando, mi experiencia y con cuáles me quedé.

Nie spodziewałem się, że to kiedyś nastąpi ... :/

Zastąpiona przez fork #Mercury, który z kolei pozbierał różne patche liska z #LibreWolf, #Waterfox, #FireDragon, #PlasmaFox i #Ghostery.
Testuję też #floorp
Edit: I #ZenBrowser
A zamiast Thunderbirda, #Betterbird :)
