Xitter

My first time seeing this and I love it. I’m going to assume its pronounced ‘shitter’ and you can’t convince me otherwise if its not.

I keep my ventoy drive locked and loaded.

Government officials, via scare tactics and fabricated statistics, are sinking hooks into lazy parents and overly-protective grandparents in a wild seize for the power to rescind your rights to freedom and privacy.

Yeah, I’m fucking over this clown. Every tech hobby I have is not American made, nor will it ever be, because some materials need to be imported even if they want it to be American made.

We’re on a one track train to the dark ages…

I want this to be good, but I agree with all these points, right down to the possibility that we may never even see this thing released.

I was pretty happy with Zen until updates started to bring in some bugs and lag. It takes up the most resources to start and the URL bar peeks out a majority of the time in compact mode. If you prefer new tabs and are in compact mode the side tabs don’t hide and cover a large part of your bookmarks bar while on a new tab page and it feels messy.

I went back to Floorp for a bit, but inevitably ended up back on Qutebrowser. The only downside to Qute is half the greasemonkey scripts to bypass YouTube ads don’t work and the python-adblock plus Brave adblock don’t block first party ads.

You can get around the first problem by adding a shortcut to bring up weblinks that open in MPV, but I haven’t found a solution to the second problem yet.

Mullvad, (the vpn, I have not tried the browser) uses a single account number as both name and password, no emails. It allows for multiple anonymous payment methods and it’s open source.

Sliiiiightly more trustworthy than Google imo.
