A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Without the browser engine, Firefox is dead.

Personal unpopular opinion: Firefox will die the day the first alpha of LadyBird is released. Every real geek will switch to the most unstable version of that new thing because Mozilla has been pissing us for a long time with their CEO bonuses.

So long and thanks for all the fish as they will all say.

ladybird is so far off being usable its not even realistic to suggest.

“We are targeting Summer 2026 for a first Alpha version on Linux and macOS. This will be aimed at developers and early adopters.”

I would pay them a monthly donation to not be sold up a river for advertising bullshit.

as long as it's good and does what I expect a browser should.

I've been rocking Waterfox since the whole MPL/ToS enshittification. Waterfox has kept most of the AI shit out. If I had to guess, those parts require ToS acceptance and since Waterfox can't legally grant usage to Mozilla's servers, they can't be included.

I'd love to see a true FOSS alternative browser hit mainstream and would gladly give LadyBird a try once it's usable.
