Wow, had no idea this was a thing. I’m gonna check these out. Man I’m so entering next year.

Very excited by this. Hopefully they go all the way and GPL it. There hasn’t been any mp3 player I’ve enjoyed using as much as Winamp.

Shame too. A lot of those groups were so cool.

Guess they don’t have the cash to buy Rumble.

Yeah i guess I am. Coulda sworn they were based in Kazakhstan. If theyre in any Five Eyes country they should gtfo. Too much copyright crap here.

I remember reading it on the site but I cannot find it now. I know for a fact she is based in Kazakhstan. So says her wikipedia page.

AA’s based outta Kazakhstan though. Lotta good a lawsuit filed in Ohio’s gonna do. At most I could see American ISPs implementing a DNS-level block against the site.

Or even the cases of Steven Donziger or the stuff Ralph Nader went through in his heyday.

I use LibreWolf and various Chromium clones. It’s good enough for me for now. I refuse to support Mozilla in any way past that.

Servo and Ladybird are the two most serious ones right now. Andreas Kling, the lead dev from Ladybird regularly streams his progress and posts about new sites working. It’s been pretty cool watching it over the years get better. iirc their current goal is to get discord completely working in browser on Ladybird.

Love React to. I hope one day I can use it in place of Windows.

Well, like an OS there are people doing entire ones from scratch like Haiku, Harmony and Serenity. It’s a herculean task but its not impossible.

I’m hoping that Ladybird and Servo start forcing competition against Mozilla and Google.

Ladybird got like at least 250k in funding last year by Shopify. The project refuses to release binaries so you’d have to build it yourself. So far the team has completed a JS engine from scratch and hit a 100/100 on the acid3 test.

Servo’s earlier in development but its got some preliminary stuff. They have a few full time devs. The project is written in rust so its getting a lot of hobbyist support too. Their main project is getting CSS compatibility.

Flow is a closed-source browser by some company. Their browser is in beta right now but as evident by this paragraph I don’t know much about its project.

Idk how to check commit numbers on mobile but I’d say all 3 are in the thousands minimum.

Theres nothing stopping a new engine from being made. People wanna say its too hard or whatever but there are budding projects people are working on from the ground up. See Servo, Ladybird and Flow for non-Chrome/Firefox browsers. It’s absolutely possible no matter what these naysayers say.

Man I wish there was a good similar alternative. And not Vivaldi that sluggish crapfest.

I didn’t even know saving posts was an option. I dont think its available on kbin.

Yeah but thats just the opium masses crap. Christian Socialism is a thing. Case in point Ceasar Chavez and the sheer amount of work he did for the labour movements. The two systems are compatible.

You ever seen that post about how classical music is closest to metal? Well Kerry King is our modern day Mozart.

Yeah I mean i’d maybe, just maybe consider allowing Threads to exist on the fediverse if not for the mountains of evidence and arguements put forth against it.

Meanwhile the arguments for federation are literally ‘you can message people across the fediverse’. That’s it.

I will become a modern day frindle.

Redux. I’ve always just used it as a fancier ‘re-do’. Still going to keep using it as such. I like the word too much.
