By the way, there are browsers out there choosing to skip the "AI window" idea completely. https://vivaldi.com/blog/technology/vivaldi-wont-allow-a-machine-to-lie-to-you/

Installed #Vivaldi today (I had been using #Firefox for the past ... 20 years or so?) - First Impressions:
- it is really fast (definitely faster than FF)
- very easy to import bookmarks from Firefox (exported html)
- uBlock and Zotero connector work fine
- adding No AI DuckDuckGo was easy
- noAI :)
Bonus: link to their Mastodon server on the toolbar 😊
Might have problems later but for now I like it! Thanks @Vivaldi 🙌

I forgot I had an active subscription to Horse browser, so now it renewed and I have another year of Horse browser.
It's nice - I just wish it was based on Firefox's engine and not Chrome. 🙃

🚨 Warnings over Perplexity’s Comet Browser 🚨
AI browsers are the new hype but it doesn't mean they are safe to use 👉🏼
Security researchers from LayerX Security have revealed that the AI browser is vulnerable to CometJacking attacks, allowing hackers to hijack sessions and access user data.

@Agarzia recently wrote an article about making a linkgraph firefox extension that let's you see if the page you are on links to other websites that you are subscribed to the RSS for! That is pretty cool. It also comes with a simple feed reader like fraidy cat or rad reader though it has trouble bringing over some of my atom feeds. Most of them work just fine.
