There’s more than one Musk!? 😱

Is this really “world news”? 😕

I mean, what’s new? We’ve known for years that companies are collecting our personal data online.

Yep 🤦🏻‍♂️

This isn’t even about AI. Regular search engines will also provide results reflecting the thing you asked for.

They can still reject the proposal. Just because they’re built upon Chromium, doesn’t mean they need to utilise or retain every feature Google adds to it.

Agreed. News about X is not news about technology.

What better way to create the image of a thriving userbase, than for your userbase to literally create the image.

I do think Firefox gets a degraded experience on some websites.

For example, Google Meet supports virtual video backgrounds and 3D face filters for Chromium based browsers.

And Google Search serves up an older results page design with fewer features to Firefox users. Someone has literally had to create a Firefox addon to make it pretend to be Chrome so it gets the modern results page.

I realise these are both Google-owned websites - but I don’t think it’s accurate to say that the average user isn’t going to come up across these differences.

Exactly this. In the same way I expect to be able to email the government, but I wouldn’t expect to send them a message on Facebook Messenger.

Open platforms over walled gardens.

If only there was some sort of Reddit API that we could use to retrieve & mirror content from Reddit… 🤔

Oh wait! 😅

Do you have a sauce for that Google announcement about Reddit? I’m interested!

It really does, doesn’t it!?

Do people even use Pinterest nowadays?

I’m always staggered by how regularly it appears at the top of search results.

Yeah. Honestly, I’m still not sure I understand it. ELI5?

I discovered wefwef today. It’s the most impressive web app I’ve ever used, to be honest. Let alone being my new favourite Lemmy client.

What makes you say that? What changes have you noticed?
