Well, Apple making Safari 26.0.1 run like a dog’s breakfast on macOS Sequoia while also *not* providing a download for Safari 18.6¹ is definitely a choice.²No way I’m breaking nearly half the apps I rely on daily by upgrading to Tahoe just to fix Safari so I guess I’ll be making Chromium my default (I use Orion a lot, especially since I pay for Kagi, but it has its issues like 1Password not working, etc.) And don’t get me started on Firefox³.So, Apple, how about a little less kissing fascist dictator arse, drinking the AI Kool-Aid, and expensive sock slings, and a little more bloody making software that actually works? Too much to ask for extinction-stage capitalism? Probably.🤷♂️¹ https://mrmacintosh.com/macos-safari-full-installer-database-download-directly-from-apple/² “Just use Linux” https://ar.al/2024/06/23/fedora-has-been-shipping-with-a-broken-screen-reader-for-nine-years-but-the-real-problem-is-me/³ https://ar.al/2019/01/11/i-was-wrong-about-google-and-facebook-theres-nothing-wrong-with-them-so-say-we-all/#mozilla (Those were simpler times… they hadn’t dipped their toes in NFTs yet or jumped naked into the AI sewer.)

@aral He doesn't post on his page. I don't see the point of being on this platform, or on Blue Sky. I feel like I'm wasting my time.

@aral Can I interest you in a Firefox fork, like LibreWolf?…just please put down the hammer…About Kagi I've read that they're not up to good, but I'm not deep into the topic (proceeds to dive deep into the topic):https://linuxmom.net/@vkc/115531895724155145https://universeodon.com/@mathew/113285422161201473https://twiukraine.com/@white_paper/115039548878869595https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@pikario/115032107435085790https://exquisite.social/@thomholwerda/114976628649035228https://hachyderm.io/@castarco/114117205014128055

@dzwiedziu Thanks. Fuck all these companies, man. When are we burning all this to the ground again? Because that’s starting to look more and more enticing as an option.

@aral @dzwiedziu I'm still with Kagi because short of building your own search engine and attempting to spider the world you have to use someone, and they're the least bad. Better than that, their product's values are aligned with the user. As for moral stuff, they seem to be trying to be neutral which, yes, is completely bullshit with regards to fascism, but it's better than everyone else who seems to be kissing fascism's ass.

@aral ywI'm eager on burning. I'm using Searx-ng, but the instances seem to be poisoned by upstream sources, configuration or outright blocks. Qwant is shitting with AI each time I open it (mostly in private browsing, but I didn't ask for this). I'm left with Mojeek and Ecosia (props to E. for at least getting off from the AI slopwagon), but not holding my breath, and afraid to check their upstream.Was curious about Yacy, but they're pro-slop.
