Sadly no, ever web app company definitely doesn’t test under Firefox. I’m at the point where I use Firefox for general web browsing and Chromium for most web apps.

Reddit is terrible as a website. But it still has the communities that developed there over years, and they are an invaluable resource. They are definitely positioning themselves to pull a Digg, but until the Reddit-killer comes along with a mass exodus (and it doesn’t look like it’s gonna be Lemmy unfortunately) access to those communities will entail dealing with reddit.
On the one hand, sure. On the other hand, if there hasn’t been even a tiny bug fix or feature update in that long it calls into question (at least for me) whether when there is inevitably a breaking change, security issue with a library, whatever - that it will be addressed. If I don’t have some level of confidence in that, I’d rather not rely on the tool.
This kind of concern could be handled by contacting the developer or engaging with the community around the tool to see what the project status is, and why it isn’t being updated.
I’ve used Hetzner for years without issue. Accessed through VPNs to the control panel without problems, changed password no issue, etc. I’ve never heard of them being “known for” the behavior you describe. This is just anecdote vs anecdote, though. I’d be interested to see some kinda evidence of what you’re saying.
Maybe not, but like you were told from another comment waze is also a Google/Alphabet product. As an otherwise near fully de-googled phone user, google maps is still the best option I know of.
On Linux KVM is what people use for this. Not an option in VirtualBox.
He’s contributing a useful video, you’re contributing useless vitriol.
If your company is implementing an app that is basically a toggle switch or power button, it’ll probably look like the first one. If your company is implementing an internal search engine, it’ll probably look like the second one. If anybody is implementing a data entry system meant to be used by trained individuals at a workstation, its gonna look like option three. You might as well complain about a CNC mill being more complicated than a screwdriver, they’re different tools.
They could have a partnership with xfinity to use all those “open” WiFi networks, for one. Or some other sneaky way of sending data.
Works fine, I have two smart TVs I did that to.
Yeah, Jerboa has been a buggy mess the entire time I’ve used it and this finally got me to try Voyager. 10,000x better experience. I know developing an app is not easy and I hope Jerboa can get through its growing pains, but Voyager is great right now.
It would be nice if they fixed their app so that when I set it to always dark mode, it actually stays in always dark mode. I don’t have much faith in UI improvements when that bug has plagued me for literally years, across Android versions and devices. But now the colors that suddenly blind me when it changes from dark to light will be different, yay?
Hard to say. Information is valuable in any type of economy, so it may be more to do with where public concensus lies on privacy issues, and the competency/trustworthiness of oversight.
Lol, if you like. I don’t support Google at all (at least, the violation of privacy rights). But I can see why their behavior happens, and it’s more to do with corruption and apathy. I blame the average person more than Google, because if it wasn’t tolerated (I.e., people in general gave the slightest shit) or privacy laws were enforced and/or written for the digital age, it wouldn’t happen. And since it is tolerated, companies that don’t participate are largely outcompeted by those that do.
I am viscerally disgusted by where privacy is at in the digital age, but at this point, no, I don’t see it as a problem with any particular tech company.
There’s no point in hating Google. Hate the systemic inadequacies that allow their abuse, and those of other tech giants, to not only thrive but become borderline mandatory for success at that level.
Speak for yourself, I’ve been prepared to submit detailed bug reports before the process in place to do so turned me off.

That’s good information. I already had a setup for openvpn, so I just plugged in their ovpn files and kept going.
You don’t have to use any software from Proton VPN, they will allow you to download openvpn and wireguard config files so you can set up your own client. Takes some more effort to do it right, yes, but its a good option if you’re up for it.
No, the PWA thing is a separate annoyance. What I find is that in a lot of web apps, the app mostly works fine but has bugs that break certain things or are seriously inconvenient in Firefox only. Two I’ve experienced recently are Nextcloud Office slideshows (I need to search for/open a bug report honestly) and a web based billing software we use at work.
