I’m pretty sure the Pub doesn’t stand for Public, but rather Publish.

edit: not saying that it is private, just my opinion on whether the pub is an adjective or a verb

Locking for rule 5.

edit: Unlocked.

Cool. How is this related to the Fediverse?

OP, I’ll be locking this post as it violates rule 5.

No problem. Though I’ll be locking this post. It really generated lots of reports and drama in the comments section.

That’s what uBlock Origin planned to do if YouTube ever decided to etch ads into the video stream itself.

Firefox’s sandboxing sucks ass (especially on Linux). Mozilla has still not implemented a better sandbox, despite the open discussion since years. GrapheneOS (a security and privacy focused aosp rom) uses Chromium for its browser Vanadium because it ultimately is undoubtedly more secure. Google pumps millions into their chrome security team.

So while not that good for privacy, chrome/chromium is better for security.

There’s a reason why software is being made with Rust now. It has the speed of C++ (sometimes faster), has a nice syntax, is memory safe by default, has the best compiler error messages and also the book is very good. I learnt entirely by the book and it’s very good at explaining things.

I do wonder: why not rust? It would have been amazing. A fast language on par with C++ that also is memory safe. But Swift? You gotta be kidding me…

Mull is not made by Mullvad. Mull is made by the dev of DivestOS.

Mull is a hardened fork of Firefox. I use it but some rare websites’ functionality does not work with it. Mull is not more secure than Chromium though, even if it is hardened. Chromium is undoubtedly more secure but not privacy-friendly. I also don’t want to support the chromium monopoly, so I don’t use them. Brave as a browser also sucks. Shields suck. Nothing to this day has been better than uBlock Origin yet.

I’ll just wait a few days or even weeks before doing any big updates, read the news page of archlinux.org and maybe some forum stuff. Nothing broke so far on my personal laptop, but I also don’t tinker alot. All of the data of the containers are also stored in a storagebox from Hetzner so the system breaking wouldn’t even mean that much, I’ll just restore from a snapshot and everything will be fine.

I also might think of switching to NixOS instead. They say it’s hard but pays off well and can be very stable.
