Vivaldi also kept Manifest V2, so old extensions do keep working there. They also have a mastodon server, and email/calendar/feeds, so they offer more out of the box than Firefox. Lots of projects built on other open source projects like Chromium and KDE do offer legitimate alternatives.
OSM from F-Droid is the way, but there are a lot of apps now based on OSM data that are also very good like organic maps. It can be hard to switch over saved data, and you might lose some of the conveniences, but it’s manageable or even better for some uses like hiking.
I switched to Vivaldi and Ecosia, barely notice a difference.
Musk, Tim Apple, and Jensen’s actions would beg to differ.
Let’s go back to 90s with free trade agreements, EFCA miss under Obama, PRO act not going anywhere, declining union membership, oligarchy levels of inequality… like any politician worth listening to should be able to figure this out.
If you still want to paint people who work at a company like Ford, seeing what Trump has done with tariffs and calling their vote anything other than a desired union policy outcome. I am not sure what to say.
Because winning back the lost union vote is too hard a strategy to execute.
While I agree with what you’re saying, this is letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. Funding sources and incentives also matter, GPL projects don’t enshittify, but it can be harder to build a community with those developers who would like a more permissive license, while most but maybe not all Apache projects can remain faithful to their missions and not enshittify. More competition means I as a user can choose from features and other things too, and not just the license.
