Most of my reddit accounts got banned for no reason. I only use them to post once in a while. No reason for ban, only server error.

Which would yiu recommend librewolf or waterfox?

Yeah yt-dlp is an amazing software, unfortunately it no longer works for nsfw without cookies.

Which is better supported waterfox or librewolf ?

I already tried strict in Firefox many websites don't work.

I tried librewolf, the problem is that it is too strict to the point that some websites don't function and I couldn't for some reason make the extension symbol show up. So it need some configuration before you are able to use it functionaly compared to Firefox.

Seriously Firefox include many services, specifying the TOS for the entire browser is stupid.

What is worse is that people are asking for clarification and there is no response from Mozilla:

They mean there stupid services such as sync and ai, but the idiots who wrote this should have clarified that this doesn't encompass the browser. They do require your data to provide those afterall.

The way it is worded is just bad they shoudl have specified services that need data like ai in the wording:

When you upload or input information through Firefox, you hereby grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use that information to help you navigate, experience, and interact with online content as you indicate with your use of Firefox.

I think they mean Mozilla services such as ai, sync, etc. The browser itself probably doesn't fall under it.

Firefox "never has and never will" sell your personal data was removed.

https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/commit/d459addab846d8144b61939b7f4310eb80c5470e

It was moved here, but there is no never will: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/privacy/faq

It seems like every company on the web is buying and selling my data. You’re probably no different.

Mozilla doesn’t sell data about you, and we don’t buy data about you.

I think the future of the internet is darknets for example Veilid.

Easynews Unlimited plan with VPN - $1.99 USD/month (charged annually, $4/month thereafter)

 

What are your thoughts on this?

 

I believe that knowledge should be free, you should have access to knowledge even if you don't have the money to afford buying it. This uses IPFS.

It is amazing, but it has the issue of not having that many user. I2P is great, but because not many people know about it and that it is harder to set-up than going to a torrent site and downloading, not many people use. I2P speed improve the more people use it. One other flow I found is that I2PSnark is awful and there is a need for a better client for it. From my understanding the more you seed, the better speeds you will get, thus it encourages seeding which solves the issue with normal torrent were a lot of people will not seed after a while. I think it is a great idea specially now that many torrent sites are being taken down.

Does anyone have this issue were firefox becomes slow if left open for a long time. In my case after a couple of weeks rendering becomes slow and when I use youtube for example if is laggy, just trying to change volume taka few second to show the volume bar. It also happens to my laptop at work. I have around 30 tabs open.
