  • Man, your comment encompasses Firefox perfectly.

    I switched from Firefox to Chrome back when Chrome first came out. Switched back to Firefox after a bit, but Firefox was so slow and janky, and they screwed over all extensions, that I didn’t last long before returning to Chrome. Switched to Edge Chromium, and now I am back on Firefox since the manifest v3 news.

    Firefox is still jank. There’s currently a bug that breaks label printing on Firefox, and despite many people reporting it to Mozilla, they just haven’t fixed it or acknowledged it. The Android version is so clunky, and it has taken them years to release pull to refresh, and when they finally did, it’s extremely buggy.

    It’s really a love/hate relationship with Mozilla lol



  • Firefox because of the manifest v3 crap.

    Before I switched back to Firefox, I was using Edge. Edge is probably the best browser out there currently. It has so many amazing features built in that make every other browser look featureless.

    Even though manifest v3 is on hold, I don’t care. I am staying on Firefox. Even though Mozilla broke label printing a few months ago, and despite bug reports being submitted, they haven’t fixed it. Mozilla is definitely REALLY slow at development. (It took years for Firefox on Android to get pull to refresh, and it’s still a buggy mess lol)





  • Unpopular opinion: if finding an instance is too hard for you, maybe the federated internet just isn’t for you.

    I don’t really agree with that take. With an attitude like that, Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc will never take off. You’ll always be here screaming into the void because no one else will be around to chat.

    Without making the on-boarding easier, Reddit, Meta, and Twitter will continue to screw everyone over.

    There’s nothing wrong with throwing someone in an instance to get them used to everything, especially when you are able to move your entire account to a different instance easily. It’s not like you’re locked down to the instance you were originally placed in.

    I mean shit, I understand instances, but I gave up the first time I tried to join Mastodon because I was too lazy to sign up for an instance in my browser, and then copy the details into the app. Wasn’t the lack of knowing, it was the multistep process that felt like a waste of time.





  • Users from all other instances can view these posts and comment on them. I think the main point of choosing a server is that your local page will be more relevant to you.

    I’m following 6 communities right now, 4 of which are from different instances because they just don’t exist on beehaw yet.

    Luckily from my experience Mastodon and Lemmy have both been very pro LGBTQIA+, probably because the haters can barely use the internet in general lol
