       #Google is increasing the speed of their #enshittification of even their #OpenSource projects like #Chrome with #ManifestV3 and #WEI and #Android stopping development for core apps like #Phone and #Messages.#FOSS projects should stop relying on them for their codebases. I'd love to see @Vivaldi fork #Firefox and @calyxos base their code on a #mobile #Linux #distro and help break up the current #monopoly.Google can't be relied on for any codebase.#WebEnvironmentIntegrity

       @secbox @Vivaldi @calyxos Just a quick clarification for others reading this thread: Vivaladi isn't a FOSS Project.

       That said, the major players in the #FOSS arena need to get their shit together on the basics. @mozilla is no angel and have had their share of controversies over the past few years, ranging from worker #layoffs to superfluous projects that drained resources without providing value to anyone, to performative #privacy with default #Firefox, to not even having proper app sandboxing for #security on #Android.For alternatives to be adopted, they have to be at least as good as the popular options

       @foss_android @Vivaldi @calyxos #OSS just due to licensing, but point taken.
