The mindset about privacy is just all wrong. It’s not an all or nothing game. Any privacy gain is a net positive to no privacy at all.
To many people conflate privacy with anonymity or try “accomplish” privacy without understanding what they want to be private from and why.
Exactly. Now to click the “copy text” button and keep your fine words handy for my next convo with a friend who thinks life with Facebook and Google is grand.
but it was trash at loading html websites

It was full of ActiveX controls and Silverlight.
shudders
Bro’s from the timeline where Flash became the dominant species.
there are many more type of websites, other than html
Can you give an example?
PHP: Facebook, Dream Market, Silk Road(darkweb)
Ruby on Rails: Github, Airbnb
Django: Bitbucket
These technologies can compile into websites in themselves, but they are usually used as backend
Except that all of those produce HTML. They are all HTML websites.
PHP stands for “PHP Hypertext Preprocessor” because it is a Preprocessor of HTML (HyperText Markup Language).
If we are talking about browser performance, none of those technologies that you mentioned execute on the browser at all and are therefore irrelevant to Firefox’s performance compared to another browser.
From a browser’s perspective, every website is HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
my guess is its just another flavour of cope.
imo likely because recent history has began to undermine the delusions which were propping up the former flavour.
There’s worse.
They already know everything about me anyways. If I can exchange my data for some free and easy to use service, I’m more than happy to give.
I hate defeatism.
Its not even defeatism, its willingly sacrificing themselves to the machine in hopes it will be merciful!
