I was answering forking and how realistic it is. You’re changing the conversation into specifics around chrome.

I’m not changing anything. they are powerless. if google decides to change chrome for the worse in a more significant way than UI design, they cannot avoid accepting that change.

and what can they do against the manifest v3 migration? they cannot afford to keep maintaining the code for mv2 addons. it is an important topic for efficient content blocking.

its funny you bring up edge as an alternative. brave too has opt-out telemetry and other shenanigans.

the “supposedly” fascist guy: has an opinion wants to get rid of people not like him and who did not do any wrong

So when they do just fork it?

say the same for chrome, and think again if you mean it seriously.

I guess they are aware that a smaller group of people are contemplating of getting rid of them in a less peaceful way somehow. with this, they can smear trans people, manufacture a reason to get rid of them, to reduce their rights, and also further turn people against each other by claiming that these trans people and everyone opposing maga are terrorists

that honestly sounds fantastic

but I don’t want to block their users

windows 10 works pretty well too. all things amazon work pretty well too. google’s services very rarely have bugs, even less security breaches. they are all so convenient! why are people switching to alternatives, that are sometimes worse, sometimes better?

Your argument in relation to GitHub does not take in the reality of the effort involved with migrating to a different platform, effort that is likely unpaid, has no logistical upside and stalls the development efforts of a project,

forgejo can automatically import issues, PRs, Wiki articles, and automatic pull/push mirrors can be set up to keep the repo up to date at other places.

the CI/CD system is almost the same.

all the usual features are the same or very similar, including the whole user interface.

not to mention breaking every single source code repository link across the wider internet, links that represent publicity and community engagement.

who said they need to delete the repo from github?

I think it’s admirable that a project is asking its community if it should stay or move

it indeed would be admirable if the communication did not contain offensive tones at multiple places.

and also don’t forget that they already migrated once. but in the meantime it seems they have gone back to github for reasons unknown to me.
