@aral @adalanerd @delta funding open source projects is hard - no one knows that better than we do. See this #ownCloud blog post years ago: https://web.archive.org/web/20190404094655/https://owncloud.org/news/open-source-contribute-noncommercial/Element received millions of VC funding, and is happily recommended all the time.https://matrix.org/blog/2021/07/27/element-raises-30-m-to-boost-matrix

@aral @adalanerd "Remember, remember // The days of…" Oof, is there any hope it might be due to the date? I mean, what is an April fool's joke without fools? I had my own "foolish moment" already today when Libera announced switching to Discord (to my defense, I didn't have my second coffee-of-the-day yet then which I immediately went for thereafter). @delta taking VC could definitely be something like that 🙈 So: 🙏 it's just that…

@IzzyOnDroid @aral @adalanerd https://chaos.social/@EU_Commission@social.network.europa.eu Izzy you detected this 🎯 and sorry dear Aral if the joky rumor understandably upset you. Please inspect https://delta.chat/en/help#how-are-delta-chat-developments-funded for our funding stance .... FWIW we share fundamental skepticisms regarding VC funding, actually, but also it's a question if licensing can effectively prevent enclosure .... peace! :)

@delta In a world with organisations like Mozilla that say they are one thing and are another, it was, sadly, all too believable.Still, I’d much rather be fooled than for it to be true.@IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd

@aral @delta @IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd so firefox mines your data and sells it to google? And librefox is a recommended alternative?

@Iguanadelmar No, they just allow Google to track people by default in exchange for ~ half a billion dollars a year.LibreWolf is a private-by default fork: https://librewolf.net/ @delta @IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd

@aral @delta @IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd is there an easy way to turn off the default tracking on firefox or would you recommend just switching to librefox? Appreciate your time & expertise, i think this will become more and more important as tracking no longer is only a question of ad dollars but becomes an issue of political repression as well..

@Iguanadelmar There are a number of settings. Off the top of my head: change default search engine to DuckDuckGo, turn off sharing data with Mozilla and “experiments” in privacy. Likely a few more you might have to tweak.@delta @IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd

@aral @Iguanadelmar @delta @IzzyOnDroid @adalanerd as a quick additional note... I find LibreWolf to perform a huge amount better than Firefox. Likely because it's doing "less".Same goes for Mull, a privacy-friendly Firefox fork for Android, start up and page load times a much quicker... YMMV

@Iguanadelmar @delta @adalanerd @IzzyOnDroid @aral ah yeah... f-droid (or indeed droidify as an alternative) would be the way to go 🙂I would recommend adding @IzzyOnDroid 's repository to fdroid once you have it downloaded too (I believe it's already enabled in Droidify)LibreWolf (I assume this is what you mean by "librefox") is a desktop app, no android app available for that 🙂

@Iguanadelmar @delta @adalanerd @IzzyOnDroid @aral no problem!copy the link below:https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/repo?fingerprint=3bf0d6abfeae2f401707b6d966be743bf0eee49c2561b9ba39073711f628937athen in Fdroid go to Settings > Repositories > + (top right) and the link should autofill (if not just paste it)and done.I think Mull is in the base Fdroid repository though, so Izzy's isn't required... but nice to have for some other apps
