Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

ah yes, flashbacks to when they bought pocket and instantly forced it on everyone
where you had to remove the ui icon, untick shit in settings, and then STILL go into
about:config
to kill even more things there. which I just wanted to share, but then found that apparently at some point my old settings got nuked? or decommissioned or something? and others reinstated/introduced? because none of my changes for that are there anymoresigh
also, their push to telemetry, to labs, to getting people to cohort into running things, them pushing selective bans on plugins because of legal pressure in countries, their absolutely fucking awful track record in spending their cashflow on utter and complete bullshit instead of actually improving the browser, ...
Well, looks like my custom pocket settings are preserved, if they're useful to anyone:
ah, handy
iirc I nuked a few more things, api keys and such
