This is the result of the world blindly using Chrome and other Chromium based browsers. Now with effectively full control over the browser that more than 90% of the world uses Google can force its will on the internet

This is not mildly infuriating this is the free internet being eroded through Google’s control of Chrome

Firefox. It is the only thing keeping Google from total internet domination

DuckDuckGo on Firefox. If you truly want to de-google your life avoid Chrome and Chromium based browsers like Edge and Brave

People's resistance to change is quite strong, even if they have good reason to leave and lemmy/fediverse are great alternatives the fact is that in terms of UX lemmy can be quite different and takes some time to find and rebuild a list of communities to join, specially since you can have the same community on different servers (i.e. technology on beehaw vs technology on lemmy.world) and just this fact means a learning curve for people that for the most part don't like change.

You just killed us all by putting a space between the dashes

Australian here. I see in America a similar pattern than what happens here, one party (conservative) receives a functioning government and proceeds to fuck things up with absurd policies while at the same time immediately claiming credit for the state of the country as soon as they get into power. Takes years to change the momentum of a country and by the time a new party is elected the country is almost bottoming out at which point the new (left leaning) party spends most of their first term fixing things up only to get blamed at the next election for being in power when things turned to shit. The electorate will never understand that a new government needs years to undo the fuck ups of the likes of the GOP. This time the Dems haven’t had enough time to fix up all the stupid shit the GOP did last time so I expect these next 4 years the country to hit rock bottom while the GOP is still in power and it will sadly be a moment of “Americans got what they voted for”

I switch when it was Phoenix, then switch again when it was Firebird, and finally switch when it become Firefox

What bothers me the most is the little patch of grass on the corner.

The best way to oppose this is to use non-chromium browsers like Firefox and take away Google’s source of power: chromium market share

Evil-er

I’m sorry but the correct wording would be “To baldy go”

That is a feature not a bug

Some of them add bugs disguised as features, like Ubuntu’s snap

Star Trek First Contact

My proof reading has failed me yet again (original fuck up: Star Trek First Conact)

Reality has a liberal bias

Why not post a link to the actual XKCD comic and give the author the views instead of a random site?

I have a Hyundai Kona Electric 2022 and it is a perfectly dumb electric car

This is what a well implemented democratic socialism gets you (The Nordic model)
