I take your point. I am not against this project existing and it could turn out positive even. But as I said it doesn’t have the potential to hinder Chrome’s monopoly.

My point is that no one talks about using regulations to curb Google’s browser monopoly ever. Even the anti-trust suit against them was related to their search offering. This relates to how Mozilla is beholden to Google for funding, and other players in the game being big corporations themselves.

politicians won’t do anything

Politicians can be made to do stuff. It is not always easy or even possible but activism sometimes works. Either way it is more likely to work than a toy browser for a niche segment of nerds becoming a viable alternative.

Alright then when the stars align perfectly and this pie in the sky becomes a reality maybe we can seriously consider regulating Google.

But alternatives already exist in the form of Safari and Firefox.

I agree with what you said but there is next to no chance a new browser engine from scratch will be able to challenge Blink’s dominance.

Google’s power comes from a combination of unfortunate factors. They have limitless money to support Chrome’s development. They are one of the biggest vendors of online services. They are one of the biggest drivers of new web standard adoption.

Breaking this monopoly will require regulation and enforcement, not a “tech visionary” and a GitHub co-founder playing hero.

Why is there so much hype around this?

Yup. Just this morning I was brushing my teeth and he seized my toothbrush.

People Make Games made a video about Valve’s structure as well if anyone is interested.

Oh shit this is great

Anyone knows if there are third party tools for filling in the metadata of a jellyfin library?

I love jellyfin but I don’t want or need metadata most of the time. For rate occasions when I do, I don’t wanna do it through jellyfin because I don’t find the interface conducive to this.

Can I see this unprecedented misconfiguration?

Google: No

What’s a “real” ad? They use that term multiple times and I can’t imagine how it is different from a normal ad or if the adds that the start menu already had were somehow different from normal ads.

The way they explain the use case of cognitive enhancements it doesn’t sound as controversial as the title implies. Unless I misunderstood it.

Can you explain more?

White what you say is true, I feel like this has more to do with their engineers being better at or more comfortable with FreeBSD or something like that.

I would like to know why they prefer FreeBSD to Linux.
