Your address book is uploaded to Facebook servers when you use Whatsapp. And each time you interact, they know with who and link this information with other profiles and users of the Meta products.

And it is because of these lousy developers that live inside a Google world that people don’t want to use Firefox.

I used influencers as an example, that’s true that they’re everywhere. But there’s many communities I follow that don’t care about Twitter politics, and they got little interest or even information to consider moving elsewhere.

The analogy of simply choosing different software doesn’t apply here. Because I can switch my os or calculator app. Those choices don’t depend on other people. Sadly, we still depend on being able to read content that other parties we care for still publish on Twitter even though I disagree with it as a to. Maybe they do or dont care. I can disagree with Twitter and like my influencers. For that, something like nitter is a good step in the direction. I want to move. As muchas I’d like to snap my fingers and have everyone into my network of personal choice. It cannot happen.

I feel that rather than DRM being illegal, Google and Chromium browsers having monopoly on the web is what allows these crazy ideas to have any room.

If the browser market was more evenly spread and there were more parties involved, these ideas woldn’t fly so easily.

I renewed phones late last year and I pondered on getting the FP4, but I was unhappy with the camera and even though it’s replaceable it is not upgradeable. I got instead a Pixel 6A and it’s a pleasure to use (tolerating all the Google stuff).

I have high expcetations for FP5
