what are you gonna do now? i might switch to keepassxc but i don’t wanna learn new stuff.

Maybe rocket.chat?

I’ll relay this to Xi Jinping immediately he’ll be glad to know of your approval

How do the SaaS AI code assistants work? I am guessing they have to send the entire file or the codebase to their datacenter. Won’t this be a problem for corporations who want to protect their codebase?

we maintain the same goal – to build digital advertising solutions that respect individuals’ rights

Does it include the right to be able to choose not to be advertised to?

Yes, advertising enables free access to most of what the internet provides

What does this even mean?

I don’t read their blog posts but seems like they have fully embraced startup lingo.

It’s not how open source works but how venture funding works which is boggling minds here

Git is decentralised by nature. It’s what allows mirroring the repo on other forges even when git repos are hosted on proprietary platforms like GitHub.

What’s matrix 2.0? Are they finally gonna use the go backend as opposed to the python one?

Sorry but no. I have never had this issue.

Can’t say that what you are looking for is common. This is the first time I’ve heard this requirement bring described.

Librejs started a long while back. I’m no js historian but I reckon things have changed a ton in jsland since then. My guess is that there assumption is that since JavaScript files are just scripts, they contain the source code and therefore all it checks for is is the license.

I don’t know at which point things like obfuscation through minification and systems like webpack came along. I’m only theorising but I feel librejs has not been able to keep up with the times.

I take your point. I am not against this project existing and it could turn out positive even. But as I said it doesn’t have the potential to hinder Chrome’s monopoly.

My point is that no one talks about using regulations to curb Google’s browser monopoly ever. Even the anti-trust suit against them was related to their search offering. This relates to how Mozilla is beholden to Google for funding, and other players in the game being big corporations themselves.

politicians won’t do anything

Politicians can be made to do stuff. It is not always easy or even possible but activism sometimes works. Either way it is more likely to work than a toy browser for a niche segment of nerds becoming a viable alternative.

Alright then when the stars align perfectly and this pie in the sky becomes a reality maybe we can seriously consider regulating Google.

But alternatives already exist in the form of Safari and Firefox.

I agree with what you said but there is next to no chance a new browser engine from scratch will be able to challenge Blink’s dominance.

Google’s power comes from a combination of unfortunate factors. They have limitless money to support Chrome’s development. They are one of the biggest vendors of online services. They are one of the biggest drivers of new web standard adoption.

Breaking this monopoly will require regulation and enforcement, not a “tech visionary” and a GitHub co-founder playing hero.

Why is there so much hype around this?

Yup. Just this morning I was brushing my teeth and he seized my toothbrush.
