This is on a TV. In a *hotel*.
Good grief.

Well, this is forking intolerable.
#Firefox is officially #enshittified.
It turned on the horrid "sponsored shortcuts" and "sponsored stories" without me asking.
Those stories are the last dadgum thing I ever want to see. I don't want more news about USFASH.
Smeg #Mozilla. I hope Google bumps them off the money-nipple and they crash and burn.
I'm going to try #WaterFox and #LibreWolf again.
Every time I see someone praising #clankers online, I think of this amazing quote from Tahani at the end of season one of #TheGoodPlace:
"Oh, that's enough out of you, robot lover!"

Please pardon my roaring schadenfreude...

Is it just me? Ever since Mike Masnick went all-in on Bluesky, I just have no desire whatsoever to read anything at (or from) Techdirt.
It's like, Bluesky is obviously in its "gateway drug" period, but you can already see the enshittification coming (and bits are here, with them welcoming fascism and silencing dissent), and Masnick still cheerleading for it being good and proper and wholesome and just what the 'net needs just fills me with rage.
He's supposed to have more sense than that.

@cazabon @dangillmor What, if anything, did you switch to? I recently started using two Firefox-derived browsers, LibreWolf on Windows and Waterfox on Android. I had to change a couple of settings on the former, and the latter doesn't work well with 1Password, but overall I'm happy.
I found your post since I recently came across the #E14n hashtag (I was very familiar with enshittification, but not the abbreviation).
