@catsalad It is hard to keep track of which browser we should be using and I had not heard that Brave was on the no fly list.
What is the current in vogue browser I can use on a chromebook (either as an android app or in Linux)? Vivaldi as an app had problems playing videos.
@human3500 @catsalad other than being a shit browser, Brave has the former CEO of Mozilla and creator of JavaScript at the helm.
He was already controversial, but the shitstain donated $1000 to Prop 8, the 2008 California bill to ban gay marriage. Then went on to be a remorseless crypto bro after being removed after only 2 weeks.
Today heβs a shill for crypto, and the browser is under a lot of suspicion of building their own closed loop surveillance under the guise of privacy.

@mttaggart @catsalad @cR0w If they were being harassed that shouldn't have happened.
I'm not exactly a fan of all pizza's but that doesn't mean I should harass the folks over on social.linux.pizza. Vivaldi and others have a presence here and that is a good thing. We need all kinds here if we are going to properly exist.
The article that Taggart linked seems to have settled a lot of the accusations it seems that were presented. Maybe?
I use Proton...Google went insane and I needed an online provider. I'm kind of hopeful I don't need to move on from them.
Can we go back to pen&paper please? Just like...
I think @cR0w said it yesterday. I'm just tired...
@jackryder @mttaggart @catsalad I don't remember them being harassed. I remember the CEO backing Trump, people here going "WTF?!" and then the doubled-down before leaving. There wasn't an explanation at the time. They handled it poorly enough that it made me concerned about how thin-skinned they are as an org and whether anyone can actually trust them against any kind of leverage.

@catsalad@social.linux.pizza @jackryder @mttaggart @cR0w Quiet, or you get the puppy bin again!
@catsalad @catsalad@social.linux.pizza @jackryder @mttaggart @cR0w what was possibly done to deserve such treatment?
**readies pencil and paper**

@catsalad @pedro_mateus @brainsuxx666 @cR0w
I see it's been posted by others. Good.
@sar @catsalad @brainsuxx666 @cR0w
Yeah, that tracks with what I read. Solid case of dick in mouth when he should've just kept quiet.
That's a widespread problem when people get a platform and feel like they have to make use it.

@pedro_mateus @brainsuxx666 @cR0w CEO is a huge Trump + GOP supporter.
@catsalad @pedro_mateus @cR0w damn...I didn't know that

@cR0w @mttaggart @catsalad I don't disagree with you there.
"Taking your ball and going home" while trying to mitigate shedding their maga-userbase doesn't exactly win them a lot of favors. Being "less evil than..." is such a low-bar for industry to try to climb over.
I've been watching this new reality show "Suddenly Amish" about these people who are trying to join the Amish. While I'm not a fan of a lot of their beliefs and social order...
"Chop wood and hang out on a porch" kind of sounds nice...

@cR0w @mttaggart @catsalad I'm in.
I don't really know much about the outside. But I used to? I've read a lot about it and have watched some shows. I got really busy around 199*...
I miss dusk.

@cR0w @jackryder @mttaggart @catsalad there's an off the grid video years ago that I still watch occasionally. A snowboarder bought mountain property and built a small cabin on it then somehow got a ski lift out there and if I could just do that I'd be sooooo happy.

That sounds perfect!
Small cabin, fresh water, random visits from the taco/pizza fairy.

@cR0w @jackryder @mttaggart @catsalad it also revealed a fundamental and irredeemable level of both dishonestly and disingenuous and gaslighting behavior. They ran around screaming that "our CEO doesn't represent us."
That's literally the job of the CEO. The guy who founded the company. The guy who is still the CEO of the company.
Yen (who is still CEO) represents the organization and sets the tone and agenda for the organization. It's his job. Claiming otherwise is lying and gaslighting.

This is the video, not sure he lives out there full time but I would. The whole video was interesting but that last few mins are my favorite part.

@cR0w @jackryder @mttaggart @catsalad and make no mistake, Andy Yen is very much still in charge. He is the head of the board of trustees and still a supporter of fascism.
Why is Proton all in on LLM fashtech? Prof. Carissa Veliz, a philosophy PhD who got one-shot by a chatbot. And is now part of the "Institute for Ethics in AI."
But of course, that's not their story. For any of it. Instead, they gaslight and outright lie.
Nevermind there being no political "neutrality" under Nazism.
