PurpleCreation [they/them]

Hey there, I’m quite new around here, I’m personally a leftist who believes in Maoist thought and wants to live in a socialist country at some point in my life.

Strongly opposed to all forms of capital, using they/them pronouns.

  • Ok, counter points to your counter points:

    1. We shouldn’t have to. Advertising as a browser as being privacy friendly means it should be like that by default, and there is no way to verify if firefox is still collecting telemetry without checking the source code (and I don’t think anyone will waste their time doing that).
    2. No comment needed.
    3. I phrased it weirdly because it is weird, plus I just hate censorship in general so I’m going to shit on it as much as humanly possible.
    4. Incorrect, the CEO has a giant paycheck of millions which could go into building firefox itself, and yet he wonders why the project is so desperate.
    5. Recommending Brave is absolutely vile, please never do that again. If you can’t use Vanadium then take a look at one of the many browsers on the F-Droid app store.
    6. This is an opinionated statement of mine and I won’t bother trying to change yours, I just don’t like my hands with blood on them, it’s dirty.

    Little extra: me calling mozilla “modzilla” was just a minor spelling mistake, no need to worry about that.







  • In laymans terms; Modzilla knows what they’re doing, it’s like the Chromium virus (think about all the forks) but on a slightly smaller scale. The best thing we could do would be to make a new engine, but this would just inevitably lead into a new monopoly itself (unless it was non profit, which Modzilla is not, and neither is Firefox). I choose to still use a firefox fork that is actually DECENT because it is one of the only options left for privacy preservation, and I’d prefer to go with the smaller one of two evils.












  • This tinfoil hat statement you made is not at all true, Signal provides a stronger E2EE chat service than WhatsApp and Telegram ever will, refusing to add backdoors and only cooperating with law enforcement if it’s the only option to keep Signal alive. Regardless of this unfortunate fact (that they do have to cooperate in some, extremely rare cases) they would never send over chat logs or images because they DON’T log your conversations. Messages are stored locally on your device so they have nothing to send. Stop spreading FUD just because Signal is a project you don’t like due to political views.
