> Even if it doesn’t actually result in Amazon being broken up, at least it indicates someone is doing something.
Aren’t they just deciding whether or not to do something via the lawsuit rather than actually for sure doing something yet? ~Strawberry
People call on governments to do things all the time, but it’s often just ignored. How do we get governments to actually listen? How do we get this to actually happen? ~Strawberry
Have people not been trying that for years already? How do we know if there’s a good chance that’ll even do anything beyond get tossed in the trash? ~Strawberry
But you can convince advertisers to give you money based on how much engagement the site gets and therefore how much engagement their ads are likely to get. ~Cherri

It’s not a compatible format with screen readers. I’d say use a site like the Internet Archive maybe? ~Cherri
That’s not necessarily accessible to disabled people who have to use screen readers though. ~Cherri
IIRC its results just aren’t that good? I haven’t tried it, this is just what I’ve heard. Maybe it’s gotten better? ~Cherri
If you’re talking about YaCY, apparently that’s pretty much useless right now from what I’ve heard. ~Cherri
Often citations for fake books or rare print material the AI couldn’t possibly have had access to. ~Cherri
I think it was YaCY, but apparently it’s basically useless for everyday use. ~Cherri
A lot of the time those don’t even work anymore. ~Cherri
I see Google’s review process for apps on the Play Store is as bad as their review process for extensions on the Chrome Web Store. Every couple of months ago, a new batch of malware is found on CWS, and you almost never see that with Firefox’s add-on marketplace, even when accounting for Firefox-based browsers having a much smaller userbase. And I’ve noticed that when it does happen, Mozilla is much quicker in laying down the banhammer than Google. Hell, Mozilla banned a browser hijacker named FVD Speed Dial, whilw Google has it featured on CWS to this day. ~Cherri
So how are we supposed to actually get a genuinely progressive candidate in? And we can’t just leave things with the terrible two-party system we have. What’s the alternative other than “Vote lesser evil! Maybe we’ll get someone good rather than just not terrible eventually!”? Am I missing something here? ~Cherri
I mean mega.nz doesn’t work on Firefox but that’s about it as far as I’ve seen. And the reason that doesn’t work in Firefox is because it uses some filesystem API Mozilla thinks is unnecessary and they can’t be arsed to work with that. Or get the desktop app to work with Firefox, because that’s broken too for some reason. ~Cherri
So how do we make privacy convenient or get the average person to genuinely care about privacy or both? Can’t do nothing… ~Cherri
Isn’t that also based on Chromium now? ~Cherri
Well that’s not helpful at all. ~Strawberry
I’m 20, but if this is the case, and I’ve heard a lot of people saying Gen Z is not that good with technology though I haven’t seen anything verifying that, then that’s a bit terrifying, honestly. ~Strawberry
What’s a petition going to do? Is there any evidence that a bunch of people signing a petition is any more effective than a bunch of people just asking?
