Not sure why anyone thinks #Vivaldi is better than Mozilla. Guess they have a pretty active fan club on the Fediverse.

Vivaldi is built on Chromium and free-rides off of the tracking that Google and other vendors who develop the core code in Vivaldi do. The same can be said of other vendors of course.

Worse yet, the browser isn't open source, so they aren't even as giving as Mozilla is.

Their translation service is in the cloud (Mozilla's isn't and open source).

Změnil jsem instanci Mastodonu

Před několika dny jsem po několika letech změnil instanci Mastodonu. Proč jsem se k tomu odhodlal? Podle čeho jsem vybíral novou? Co obnáší samotná migrace a jak jsem na nové instanci spokojený?

ICQ is closing down. It was really at its height in 2000 and that is when we integrated ICQ into Opera. We made a small (5k) client and it worked really well.

AOL had purchased ICQ and they were concerned about MSN taking users from them by connecting to their service, so they stopped supporting 3rd party clients. We contacted them, to see if they would make an exception for us, but they did not.

They said that if we removed our 5k client, we could maybe discuss bundling their client, but it was bigger than Opera, so that was not going to happen.

Nazrál čas dát Firefoxu druhou šanci

Sepsal jsem důvody, proč si myslím, že by měl Firefox dostal zase šanci. Ať už od těch, kteří ho v minulosti opustili, nebo od těch, kteří ho nikdy ani nezkusili.

Na obranu blokování reklamy

Poté, co se Youtube pustil do ostrého boje s blokátory reklamy, rozhořela se opět diskuse o tom, zda je v pořádku reklamy blokovat. Dlouho jsem byl na straně odmítačů blokování reklamy. Během svého života jsem napsal řadu článků pro různé časopisy a servery a vím, že obsah se zadarmo neudělá. Nicméně odvětví internetové reklamy zmorfovalo […]

So, my first #vivaldi
#web #browser poll has ended. the results are here: mastodon.social/@Unatributed/1…

Unfortunately not a lot of respondents, but the ~60/40 split was enough to get me to install vivaldi.

Unfortuantely I won't be sticking with it. Why? My main reason for installing it was the new mail client, which reminded me of the old #Mozilla and #opera browsers. Alas, the mail client doesn't work the way I need it to, and there are lots of forum posts about problems with it...

Curiosity: Do you use the #vivaldi #browser? Or are you using something else? (Should a I do a multiple choice browser survey?) Please boost so I can get some good data. [ ] Yes [ ] No
