It uses Google’s browser engine base called Chromium, which Chrome is based on (the used engine is called “Blink”). A lot of websites are made to just function well on Chromium and maybe Safari

For normal usage and actually using a messaging app for what it’s intended (contacting people in your life), it’s far too obscure and non-streamlined tbh. Signal is more than good enough for the thread model of chatting with friends and family, and ppl you got to know online

Tried it out, but since I was so used to the standard OsmAnd style it just felt wrong some way.
It really like how OsmAnd allows for so much customization e.g. in map styles

Technology@lemmy.world•Is Fast Charging Killing the Battery? A 2-Year Test on 40 PhonesEnglish
1·10 months agoI personally don’t trust the little (probably superficial) insights I have into the topic enough to be able to gauge this; neither do I have the energy to put into discerning slop creators doing it for clickbait with some backyard engineering or genuinely correct amateurs.
I like to outsource that to proper channels, I understand that it’s probably not 100% fair every single time, but as I said, I have neither time nor energy to judge it properly myself

1·10 months agoExactly, when it comes to highly complex chemical and electrical engineering and physics (as is the case with Smartphones and their lithium-ion batteries), I will take it as an inditcator if it comes from well-established testers with professional equipment like GN (Gamers Nexus) or other established technical journals when talking outside of the video world, but will not accept it as a general and genuine technical (!) insight until it has gone through the due process of scientific publishing and peer review…
Even then I prefer meta-studies, since they reduce biases and general inaccuracies.

1·10 months agoMIT is an extremely weak license when it comes to defending free/libre rights; e.g. it allows proprietary forks. i.e. companies stealing the code, making their own bullshit corpo product and not even releasing the source code back

Their normal non-LTS versions are still considered production ready and acting that rash has only solidified my negative opinion of them more…

12·10 months agoThis is my take as well. I’m extremely disappointed they only went with a temporarily open license instead of a proper one, but using MIT is unfortunately to be expected from the Rust ecosystem for whatever reason…


That’s on corporate sites just saving work or intentionally obstructing and restricting Firefox because Google basically a monopoly.
For me personally Firefox (and it’s engine Gecko) work fine for 99% of websites I visit.
