While we don't promote non-#FOSS apps, we can salute #Brave for setting up their own #FDroid repository for #BraveBrowser. @brave how about a fully FOSS browser in f-droid.org next? 😉

@fdroidorg@floss.social @brave@mastodon.social salute Brave? Like, doing the nazi salute?
@witix Why necropost though? 🤔
@fdroidorg anyway, @brave do not really work smoothly without Google Services
@fdroidorg why can't I find brave on the market than?
@fdroidorg "We don't promote non-FOSS apps", said F-Droid, while promoting a non-FOSS app
@fdroidorg Somewhat surprised to see that this is still up. Did the feedback not give you guys any food for thought?
@fdroidorg
Brave ?
As in "made-by-a-nazi" brave browser ?
As in "crypto-enthusiast" browser ?
As in "not floss but still near enough look at google-android what could go wrong" browser ?
As in "we receive help and fund from facebook but privacy is our priority" browser ?

Hey @fdroidorg, there's a very vocal peanut gallery here who cannot and will not understand strategic cooperation.
They've been mindflayed by DataFarms to the point where anything that does not perfectly fit their morality, on all counts, at all times, is the enemy. They would cancel their own Grandma for sending them a Hallmark card on their birthday, because 'promoting evil corporation'.
EDIT: typo (missing word)
@strypey if you would like to know why lgbtq+ people oppose strategic cooperation, i suggest you open a history book and look at any of the times it has been tried

You can say that about absolutely anything. If you're making a case for something, as opposed to just editorialising for the sake of it, you need to be more specific. Then you need to be a *lot* more specific. See the posts I just made about polycrisis.
@strypey japan strategically collaborated with the nazis in WWII with promises of extra territory, ended the war with half the territory they started with. log cabin republicans strategically collaborated with mainstream conservatives, got thrown under the bus. radical feminists collaborated with transphobes to "keep men out of women's spaces", who then didn't care that imane kheif was cis. LGB alliance also collaborated with mainstream conservaitves to get rid of those filthy transes, guess what happened next. how many more examples do you want?

Because they don't understand strategic cooperation, they're useless at organising or creating anything. But they do have a knack for trying to dogpile and destroy anything that doesn't conform to their authoritarian morality.
They're very loud, but fortunately they're also completely ineffective. As FSF, FediLab, GIMP, and many other Free Code projects have found, if you do not feed the concern trolls, they eventually find a new shiny thing to hate on.

@strypey
Mere minutes before these posts, you made another post where you questioned if Firefox was still salvageable, or if it was too enshittified.

So it feels like you are taking issue with something you just did yourself, only a few minutes before?
Maybe I don't understand? Maybe, you think your complaints are somehow more valid? Or is it to do with the volume of the complaints?
@jesse @strypey Yeah, um Firefox now has an "anonymized" ad tracking system...... like Brave. If the issue is "broken governance" then what is great about Brave's governance? Why has Brave's also low adoption rate somehow been the fault of Mozilla? (Bizarro...)
If you take the crap out of Firefox, you have something like Librewolf or other fine browser. If you take the crap out of Brave, you have Chromium with an ad blocker. However, the Chrome/Chromium model is inferior because it doesn't have FPI https://www.reddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/egq95n/is_there_a_similar_feature_to_firstparty/ .... silo-ing 3rd part content to maintain privacy is against the financial interests of both Google and Brave Inc.
@fdroidorg @brave I can't, fdroid spine-bending contest 😭
@fdroidorg @brave Interesting, but consider the following:
@fdroidorg I am rather confident in saying that "saluting" them and linking their site constitutes a promotion. What was the rationale behind this post?
@fdroidorg @brave So how long have you been Nazis?
@fdroidorg @brave holy fuck, giving free advertisement to brave???? you should fucking know better. theyre fascist scum that want trans people like me shot dead
