You obviously do not understand what am saying.

I don't think you understand at all what being political actually means.

You clearly dislike this person because your and their political positions are at odds, and you seem to want to make that a priority. That is fine! I do that all the time.

I just thought it is absurd that you would think that this decision (or your argument) is not political, because it is.

I just tried to illustrate the obvious by quoting some of the many political things you've written before saying that what you write isn't political.

Like.. why would you think that?

Ne danke. Tankie-Instanz-Nutzer sagt Tankie-Scheiße. Muss ich mich nicht drauf einlassen.

Kommunismus? 😂 Diese deine Einschätzung der Situation ist wirklich glorreich daneben haha

I hate Temu, but this (apparently contracted?) Grizzly Reports report isn't really all that trust inspiring, tbh.

Our experts identified a stack of software functions that are completely inappropriate to and dangerous

The stack difference to the Amazon app they list:

  • Package compile
  • Requesting system logs
  • Some code obfuscation
  • Mac address collection
  • Install permission
  • Wake lock

Meh. That's just a sliver worse than your regular, off the shelves proprietary corporate app. I don't see how they can pull off the promise of being a truly dynamic Android app from that report.

I do believe they hover up data, but they aren't otherworldly super hackers. They will probably just ask for the data and the users will hand it over in a second. For most people, it really is that simple.

So what's preventing those people from using bookmarks as "check this out later" tool?

Bookmarking a page does not give you control over its content. So if you bookmark something and the host deletes it, you are screwed.

If you instead clip the content or save it as a PDF, you retain access regardless of the original host.

For example, I save every good article I read as a PDF, which I cloud sync to a folder. I have a second folder for stuff I don't want to keep open as a tab but still want to read later. There are probably far better services out there, but I like the lack of technical dependencies and lock-in.

CEO is a homophobic shithead. ... Privacy is important ... Privacy is good ... Society is toxic ... calling out people who specifically want to legally control how others (harmlessly) live their lives is not itself toxic ... His opinion is that gay people shouldn't be allowed to marry. I think this is rather invasive. ... My point is that someone who is willing to donate thousands to homophobic lobbyists doesn't seem to care about gay people's rights to Privacy ...

And then:

I am not sharing political opinions

Brilliant.

Although I am not sure whether it is art or delusion.

Yeah, just create an entirely new, incompatible extension engine from scratch for this one feature specifically!

This is absolutely not how any of this works.

While Mozilla implements the WebExtensions API based on the W3C standard, they are not bound to a 100% verbatim implementation. Like other browser vendors, Mozilla has the flexibility to extend or modify the API as needed, as long as they maintain compatibility with the core standard. Adding new APIs or features to the extension system does not require creating an entirely incompatible engine. Browser vendors often add non-standard extensions to APIs, which can later be proposed for inclusion in the next version of the standard if they prove useful. So, Mozilla can certainly add new APIs to their extension system without making it incompatible with the existing WebExtensions ecosystem. This is not difficult to understand.

Vergleichst du hier jetzt Biden mit Hitler?

Wie kommst du auf diese wirre Idee? Erklär doch mal

[-] xad@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

lol, als ob die Leute, die damals Hitler für das geringere Übel hielten, heute Biden wählen würden.

Was ich geschrieben habe, war, dass jemand, der immer das mutmaßlich geringere Übel wählt, unter schlechten Vorzeichen auch ein an sich absolutes Übel wählen würde.

Insofern ist diese Position an sich bereits ein moralischer Bankrott und eine Verfallsform eines demokratischen Selbstverständnis.

Was du da reindeutest sind stattdessen Gleichsetzungen auf dem Niveau eines Achtklässlers. 😀

Mozilla isn't in charge of the extension API, it uses Chromium's WebExtensions API

No. They are basing their implementation on that of Chrome, but nobody is forcing Mozilla to do this ... So yes, Mozilla is responsible for all the APIs they integrate. Of course.

Am Ende wähle ich immer das geringere Übel,

Immer noch besser als Papen oder Schleicher, haben sie gesagt.

Als Zeitung willst du ständig neue Rückschläge, Lichtblicke, Helden, Bösewichte, Chancen, Hoffnungen etc. Eine sachliche Analyse liest doch kaum jemand. .. und wenn es niemand liest sind die Werbenetzwerke enttäuscht. Das will ja nun niemand.
