^This. The only bit I missed from reddit over here were the wiki entries.

Eagerly waiting for all the info aggregation to take off on all the hobbyist communities.

A lot of the privacy aspects mentioned in the article would apply but the extra features(like facebook container) would not. The extension support is also an issue since the extensions themselves have their own privacy policies, so if you get any which are hosted on google owned chrome web store all your privacy cautiousness goes down the drain unless you’re using a vpn.

Firefox addons also have their own privacy policies but you can simply choose the ones with open source licenses so it should be rather simple to be more protected.

What shit app were you trying to use, get feeder and add the proper topic specific rss if you want to categorize like “business”. I never even get the time to read through all the news because there are literally hundreds of articles being added to the feed daily.

And AntennaPod for your podcast needs.

I wouldn’t say preferable but it’s definitely very useful. When you have about 45+ tabs open(Yeah I do that) and the vertical tabs are too squished to show their titles, you have to then manually swap between tabs by either clicking or ctrl+tab etc to search for a specific tab.

Vertical tabs are like sidebar links in explorer except better, you can search tabs by address or title, drag and drop them for organizing, pin them to the top etc.

Very well put.

Same here, I can usually find everything within the first 3-4 entries unless it’s a bit too abstract than it ends up at the bottom of the 1st page. I don’t understand people complaining about it so much as I depend on search engines for day to day and work related stuff so literally several times everyday. Although it’s possible I got used to how it works but if so then I would have had to swap between ddg and google alot if the quality actually was that low.

I’m also going to say Linux Mint but I’ll request using the debian edition. It would be better to wean off Ubuntu earlier for all of us.

Open source is a safe bet since anyone can make a new fork(Spin-off) of the original if it went down a direction you didn’t like or just wanted to make a version with your preferred features. So openstreetmap is the current safest option since it has an Open Database License.

For me It’s music discovery. Trying to find a particular net radio manually throughout the web that fills your criteria of music is obviously hard so this extension makes it easier to browse.

Other than that I use the browser for work and leisure so I end up browsing alot, since the browser is on most of the time I can turn on the radio and play faster from the extension instead of browsing to the dedicated website or swap to a different app for the same function. You can make the argument that a bookmark would work just as well but you can do it in the add-on too and make a library list of them that you can press the next button to change to a different one.

Are some absolute musts for me.

I love my Armored Core and Baldur’s Gate for obvious reasons, but there are some absolute gems in the FOSS scene too (And I’m not even gonna mention all the indie stuff) like Mindustry, Xonotic, Zero-K, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Unciv just off the top of my head.

Even though alot of them are just rehash of older titles or abandoned projects but even those are improved far beyond their original iteration. What I actually find problematic with FOSS games are stuff like low player count leading to a poor multiplayer experience and most games being very old school-ish (Xonotic is literally an arena shooter made on basically the Quake engine 🤷)
