If I had a more conspiracist mind, I'd say that the timing of #Google's proposal to remove #XSLT support from #Chrome#Chromium#Blink just as we are seeing a resurgence of interest in #RSS and the #indieWeb away from the centralized #GAFAM silos is quite suspicious.

Please, what #VPN should I use, and what #browser should I switch to? I want to stop using #Google#Chrome but I keep hearing bad stuff about #Mozilla#Firefox and I don't know about other browsers. Also, any recommendations for a password manager?

I've been using #Firefox for over 10 years. Only recently have I switched away from it as my primary browser, because frankly I don't think it has much life left (and my customers use
#Safari or #Chrome).

Help people in censored countries bypass censorship by installing the Snowflake addon from @torproject ❄️

Whether you are running #Firefox, #Chrome, or one of the many other browser flavours (#Waterfox, #Edge, #Brave, #Vivaldi, etc.); once you install Snowflake, there's nothing else you need to do.

Then people can use your internet connection as a launchpad to the #Tor network. Clever stuff.

Interesting… but why is this at the browser level instead of OS level? 🤔 https://blog.chromium.org/2025/05/fighting-unwanted-notifications-with.html

Can anyone with a regular and recent #stockROM#Android phone confirm if they were able to uninstall (not deactivate!) pre-installed apps like #Chrome, #Youtube, #GoogleMaps, #GoogleDrive, #GooglePhotos, or #Gmail ?

Google is working on a desktop version of the Chrome web browser for Android, complete with support for extensions installed from the Chrome Web Store. This is unlikely to come to phones and tablets though, and could be aimed at next-gen Chromebooks powered by Android. https://www.androidauthority.com/try-new-chrome-for-android-with-extensions-3569268/#Android#Chrome#WebBrowsers#BrowserExtensions#Google
