At least NCD is a snark/meme community and not a whole ass instance lol

Would you look at that yet another anti Mozilla post in this community. Go ahead and scroll thru the posts and you’ll find at least 4 from the last week or two alone

Not surprised, this community is terrible for actual technology need and discussion

Please do, that email will totally change everything

Firefox hate has become more and more rampant as Google tries to tighten their fist around chromium challengers

This is such an ignorant take, this preserves privacy, did you even read the fucking article??? Like seriously this comment is purely false assumptions

Chromium shill

and?

yawn, I’ve been dual-booting macs with linux for many many years

They don’t care, the massive majority of normies will never hear about it and those that do won’t care

So all the shit banned in China, North Korea, etc. we lose it too then? You fucking moron

Yeah!!! Hold everyone accountable to everyone’s rules! You can only get it if literally nobody has a problem with it.

Yeah that sounds great, you’re a real genius

This has been possible for awhile now

They can’t keep it straight with the blind “Apple bad” circlejerk

You can side load all day on any iOS device

Excuse me??? If not the manufacturer then who? The government???

The walled garden absolutely should not be destroyed because it’s owned by a private company and they see said walled garden as a way to protect their users from scams that plague many android stores.

The compute devices are not bound the whims and fancies of the manufacturer at all, the software made available on the company’s own servers are what is bound to their whims, and rightly so because it’s THEIRS and they’re a PRIVATE COMPANY.

You cannot simply force a company to do what you want simply because you don’t like what they do not allow on their own private store.

Do you think we should force every other goddamn store in America to sell whatever the gov says they should? Or maybe we should leave that to those that own the store.

You’re not forced to use that store, if you don’t like it fuck off.

“Walled garden needs to be destroyed” you’re advocating for a fascist takeover, Apple can remove literally anything they want because it’s their fucking goddamn store. That fact does not mean the “walled garden” should be destroyed, Jesus fucking Christ. Who upvotes these literal brain dead comments

I agree. To your last point, I think you need to add more nuance. Lots of apps can take pics and thus require access same as mic. It’s not always a red flag until it is, which naturally should bring you back to a threat model you are comfortable with when analyzing whether permissions are valid

life-long Kali fan

No shot, any inconvenience is simply a bridge too far for the majority

Yes keep restating a PR ad from 2006, nearly TWENTY goddamn years ago. Are you aware Mac OS has changed significantly just like literally every other main OS?

Well, the company said it 18 years ago and it’s no longer true, they must be fucking liars
