    @Doomed_Daniel @SnoopJ Its balancing all the Evils and deciding which ones hurts the least. For me, closed source is acceptable in a browser because I trust Mozilla even less to not have crammed some data-spying AI crap in there.

    @Doomed_Daniel @SnoopJ I went to vivaldi, and yeah, not ideal.

    And tbh, I'll probably switch to LibreWolf or something, because yeah contributing to the blink monoculture still feels meh. The open source bit also bugs me, although not half as much, considering the vivaldi company seems a lot less techbro-ish than mozilla is right now. I'd probably already be on LibreWolf if they only added a simple button to whitelist sites from the privacy protection stuff, because I want my QoL features on all the stuff I self host.

    The sad part is that Vivaldi is a really nice browser that makes the amount of resources Mozilla sinks in AI even worse, because there's no reason firefox could be at least this nice, but nope, need to chase the AI dragon.
