The Web Browser is the new TeleVision.

There is too much financial power to corrupt for us to win this fight.

The way out is to ditch HTTPS, HTML & CSS and create a new spec that is purposely limited in its scope suchas Gopher or Gemini (although I might argue Gemini is slightly too narrow as I think it would need Images, Audio & Video and maybe Input Forms depending on scope)

HTTP & HTML must die. It had a good run, it's time for a new Hyper v2 world outside the mainstream downtown doofus hangouts of social media & Advertising impersonating Internet Things like search, social & email.

We need a new web browser without all the legacy garbage & complexities. Without the DRM corruption shoehorned by Amazon, Disney, Netflix & Google.

And it needs to be limited by design to just what is needed so financial interests can't corrupt & screw it up.

This is called Controlled Opposition.

The Oil Companies do the same thing -- fund the leaders of anti-oil activists in countries where they are not #1 and use them as a proxy to target and harm their competitors.

Profit. Rinse & repeat.

Mafia tactics. The oil companies let government money and investors innovate in the solar industry and pay all the upfront costs. Then did a controlled collapsed and bought the companies IP up in bankruptcy for pennies to the dollar. And now that the oil companies own the Patents & IP it's totally okay for you to morally buy their products.

The bottom line is that The House Always Wins and what matters is who is allowed to collect the money for the grift. Territory of who is allowed to buy & sell on what streets.

We would be better off if Firefox didn't exist and the EU broke up Google for Anti-trust. At least then Manifest v3.0 DRM might not have come to be.

Is it me or is source forge just the mark of dead things.

I always avoid that place. It feels like where you go to get broken stuff.

They're gonna take me out back and shoot me for saying it but Launchpad too. Like I'm glad it works for you but it feels like when Debian had a website in 2015 that looked like 1997. How are we going to attract new talent when the rift between the average developers and the old guard widens over time. All the git VCS modernization supercharged development. Like bugzilla was "fine", but " fine" was the problem in a world of better when you couldn't even upload a > 250kb jpeg and other legacy hold us back stuff.

The average person doesn't even have a IQ of 100 and we are in a decline. Let it sink in.

Fdroid literally says fennec tracks you under "anti-features", did I miss something?

When you first saw C++ were you blinded by its majesty?

Right, but I'm assuming where the disk drive used to be is just decorative and not a optical disc slot

I'm just surprised Pidgin hasn't been rewritten from the ground up by now. Some of the available messengers and logos in the app don't even exist anymore.

I was incorrect about the aspect ratio it's 3:2 not 16:9 and I think 3:2 is fine especially at 2160x1440p.

Still with the dialogs on the left and right anything except minimal would make the drawing area small taking the left and right.

I did notice it on sale, maybe if you have humble expectations it would be okay for sketching, but if you are used to better quality things or larger draw surfaces you might not be easily impressed.

Excellent, did my test config last month for a friend, I was having trouble on bare metal even though I typically prefer, and in this sense it was nice to have a image I could turn on and off as needed easily.

I was kind of turned off by the keeb* being sold separately, also wasnt the aspect ratio meh.

Rule of thumb larger screen or surface means more fluid strokes, thus smaller screen means more fine motor skills and more tension in the hand and less* fluidity in the work.
