Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible - Open Idea

Life finds a way

Yarr

I hope chrome fails terribly. Just like Internet Explorer(IE)
Anyone still using Google products is a fuckin idiot, IMO

There are hardly any alternatives for people who don’t have the time to self-host and setup everything.

“Oh but Firefox!” the tools that Mozilla provides are indeed good - but there’s no Mozilla Photos, Mozilla Notes, Mozilla Assistant, and so on.

“Oh but Microsoft!” and why would that be better than Google?

“Oh but mix Firefox with Proton and this specific GitHub project for photo management and this FOSS notes apps with a Docker backend for sync and thi-” I wish I had the time to do that, truly, I actually prefer many of the FOSS alternatives I’ve seen lately. I do not have the time nor hardware to do this correctly.

Why does it have to be Mozilla everything? I want Mozilla to continue doing what it does best: build browsers and (maybe) mail clients.

Not everything has to be unified. I’d be quite content with Teehee Photos, Hoho Notes and Huehuehue Assistant as long as they’re decent tools.

I’m not implying it needs to be unified. I’m implying there aren’t solutions similar to Google, as in, fully automated.
Fully automated or fully integrated? And how do you know? Not trying to be confrontational, but whenever I think a tool doesn’t exist, it totally does. It just isn’t popular enough.
There isn’t. Closest there is is NextCloud, but you need to self host it, since it isn’t E2EE so using a provider would just put you back in square one. Proton is a close second but its still miles away, they have a lot of products but their devs seem to be spread thin between then.
there are hosted nextcloud servers available. the nextcloud website has some listed on their website.
