Seriously. I'll be a redditor here, but that's my "migrate-to-another service moment". If I'm not able to whitelist the sites that provide a reasonable ad experience and block ads on those that dont, then I'm moving to a different browser and password saving environment.

Google and every other corporation that wants to be your Daddy or your slave master can go fuck off and die. Personally I have been done for a while now, when Google shit all over the world by buying YouTube then making everyone sign in to Google plus to use, it was it for me, I have never actually signed in to YouTube since, and have tried to avoid giving Google any traffic to this day.

I think we don't have a choice anymore but to start making a new society built from scratch for the people. We can start by using the vast amount of tools and resources built by corporations to enslave us against the same corporations doing the enslaving.

I don't know if the human population can actually collectively do what's necessary to save themselves or more then likely their children from a life of permanent servitude these corporations want.

But why not give it a try, it's better then realizing you were a feckless idiot that did absolutely nothing while you're waiting for a corporation to cut off your life support because you're no longer profitable.

Politicians will allow corporations to enslave everyone but that magical 1%, they're not vary bright, they don't study history, all they study is fleecing the public, when the shit finally hits the fan the leaders these politicians make will hang them first.

And if some corporation don't like what I'm saying, come at me bitch, I've got curable cancer, I've been told I got ten years left, so have fun then die (I'm on a Tennessee Republican Death Panel right now.) So lets see how much "fun" I can make for corporations in ten years.

I don't see how getting rid of ad blocking would help Google. The people that know tech enough to always install Adblock first thing when installing a browser will just jump to the next browser.

And the people that don't know tech enough to do that wouldn't have used Adblock either way.

They're losing out on a much larger userbase (People that know tech) in the hopes of keeping the subset of that userbase that knows their way around tech but doesn't care if adblock is installed or not and making them 'pay' by watching ads.

That would at least be my opinion if that's what's actually happening, because I personally didn't gaf about these news until now and I only read the text from the meme. And quite honestly, I'll continue not giving af in the future.

and then there's lynx

The moment Firefox gets native vertical tabs with drag and drop grouping, I'm making the switch. But, as it stands, the vertical tabs in Edge are irreplaceable and not a single of the "workarounds" to make them possible in Firefox feel good at all.

I need drag and drop tab grouping and vertical tabs. That's it.

Edge also just introduced workspaces which feels like something I'm going to love once I get the time to mess with them.

I want to leave Edge because I want to be done with Chromium in general, but Firefox feels too behind the times for me.

So I switched to Firefox for privacy reasons but fuck if it isn't buggy as hell on my old phone. I'm keeping it, but it's a huge reduction in usability compared to Chrome.

Literally me. Planning on switching to Firefox after work today.
