"In 2024, for the first time, it finally feels like we have a critical mass of people and platforms who are interested in rewilding the internet to bring back what we lost, and create something new. ... There's a palpable feeling that this just might be the year of the open web."

is this feeling... hope? activitypub.ghost.org/day-0/

Ok wtf. So you're telling me that #Google #Chrome's #V8 #JavaScript engine was more #insecure than #Mozilla's #Spidermonkey after all these years? Because I'm pretty sure SM has been already doing plenty of the things mentioned in this article (I've touched on SM code plenty of times, so much more than I wanted because I worked on separating Spidermonkey from the monolithic #libxul, it's still hurting my brain...), even before the #Quantum rewrite. So even #PaleMoon which has been commonly trashed for being "old and insecure" is apparently more secure than Chrome, but most crucially it also disproves the long-standing blind belief by security freaks out there that Chrome is "more secure" than #Firefox when it's the other way around on many fronts...

"We need people fighting for Firefox"

I agree. Firefox has been my default browser since a loooong time. The current situation is very problematic in the medium-long term, and has potential to be worse than the "IE6" times, because Google is (and has been for ages) actually an Ads company.

If not directly, somehow help keep Firefox alive.

The issue is pushing #closedweb thinking into a #openweb project. Why do we need to add secure DM's to mastodon, exactly, and what would be added by this and what would be lost?


matrix is a gold #4opens project but has 2 issues it's a defacto open "industrial" standard and it has semi opaque governance issues. Not big problems.

#4opens


that would be hugely blotted server wise, and mastodon is #4opens project so encryption is not a core part and would make the white lie of security this was built on, hard to maintain.

It works because it's #openweb to start to move to #closedweb would make this likely not work anymore.
