That's amusing... I learned about this building during my english proficiency exam, as the "listening" part narrated its story.

Actually, you can do the CNAME thing with mxroute. Dunno, for me going from Zoho to mxroute hasn't been so problematic...

You don't need to reinvent the wheel to have a "somewhat safe email". Just own a personal domain and host it on migadu, mailcheap, mxroute, Zoho or any other provider.

> Google's been paying Mozilla for search traffic for more than 20 years

Well, and Mozill gladly accepted the deal, being passive and without even trying to be self-sustainable. The (only) culprit here isn't Google. Mozilla's mismanagement has played a big role.

Hopefully

I don't agree. Firefox once had almost 30% market share. A lot of people explicitly downloaded and installed it, when IE was dominant and Linux almost non-existent. What happened? Those people suddenly became stupid or tech illiterate? Take into account that or has lost not only in market share, but also in absolute number of users. Mozilla has its fair share of blame here.

Can't say for USA, but in EU if I want something I can find at least 5 online non-Amazon stores that sell it. Often times they are also cheaper. I refuse to buy anything on Amazon anyway, don't even have an account and I can still get my stuff.

Nextcloud calendar is a bit annoying in my case, as email reminders often come late, sometimes 10 minutes or more. I guess it's because they rely on the cron process.

Finally an article which doesn't contain the "...and you should too" thing, which I personally find very annoying. I also left Google behind the day they automatically added a calendar event from and email I received, some 10 years ago. Is not that much, really, but it was just an eye opener.

With respect to Kagi, I tried it briefly and, hey, it seems fine. My personal problem is their price. I guess I could afford the 10 €/months, maybe, but I'm not sure I could justify that when I could (and actually did) simply set up a VPS with SearxNG in docker on it for less than half and have watchtower update it automatically, thus accessing many and diverse search engines at once. Basically, set and forget it. Still, I'm glad that Kagi exists, as one day I may decide to switch to it.

"For those who prefer to exclude all 3rd party communication, Firebase and Microsoft Visual Studio App Center are removed completely from the F-Droid build. Additionally, Turning off push notifications on a self-hosted Bitwarden server will disable using the push relay server."

Because the browser people decide to use is none of your business? Just saying...

No. Mozilla doesn't deserve this. They are purposely making Firefox worse with each stupid update. I'm not going to tell someone to use something that I think it sucks.

No, they couldn't. Firefox is developed by Mozilla Corp which, being a for profit, can't accept donations.

Well... Brave inbuilt adblocker has CNAME protection as well, so if uBO stops working on Chromium 'cause of MV3, changes for me would be minimal. I refuse to use Firefox in its current state, with that dumb interface and the continuous feature removal. Waht's more, after being a FF advocate and user for something like 20 years, I seriously think that Mozilla should disappear sooner than later.
