@coolboymew Firefox is currently having a 'shopping experience' sidebar integrated. I believe this is the result of buying Fakespot, a company who made a thing to sus out fake reviews.
@mischievoustomato Shit like this makes me want to go back to Vivaldi. As a Nightly user I can see incoming changes.

@xianc78 @mischievoustomato @olmitch @thatbrickster yes, it's all fucking shareware

It wouldn't be bad if it was a handful of programs, but all Mac only programs (that aren't also on windows/Linux) are all fucking like this. It's fucking terrible. I can just fuck off to Windows or Linux and do all this shit for free

@coolboymew @mischievoustomato @olmitch @thatbrickster Who even uses Mac-exclusive software (besides the ones that come with the system)? Pretty much everything that isn't a AAA video game has a Mac version.

@xianc78 @mischievoustomato @olmitch @thatbrickster there's a bunch of Mac specific stuff you'd like to use, like the fancontrol thing, a Mac diagnostic software where much needed advanced features are locked, etc etc

@coolboymew @mischievoustomato @olmitch @thatbrickster There has to be some opens source software that can do the same thing.

@xianc78 @mischievoustomato @olmitch @thatbrickster as said most open source stuff on mac is linux stuff or stuff that's everywhere already
@mischievoustomato @xianc78 @coolboymew @thatbrickster there's a ton of stuff on iOS and Mac that is open source that I want to use. Like UTM for example https://getutm.app/
