What in the fucking hell, @Waterfox. Why we can't have a fucking decent firefox fork that doesn't add shit like this.
Get that fascist cryptoasshole's money if you want but i'm uninstalling.
Friendly Neighborhood Chuck!@cygnathreadbare WTF @Waterfox ??? The ceo of brave is a homophobic piece of shit (besides everything else mentioned). Is it too much to ask for a decent project??
Chacheneguer@oneeyedman @cygnathreadbare @Waterfox
Está visto que no =____=
Supongo que ven que la gente huye a otros sitios y se aseguran de perseguirnos.
Algo asín.
luca@cygnathreadbare @Waterfox Good, then I'm not the only one pissed about it.
Actually, I installed it only for DRM support, otherwise I would only use LibreWolf.

olimobu 🎶@cygnathreadbare @Waterfox Qué alternativa de fork de Firefox nos queda en Android?
ArtistSynth - Ahora en NeoPaquita
Pixel Prophecy 🇵🇸🇺🇦🇪🇺@cygnathreadbare @Waterfox Fucking hell 😩 I just switched to Waterfox 6 weeks ago and now this. I am just sooo fucking exhausted.
Waterfox@PixelProphecy @cygnathreadbare I don't think you should be exhausted over usage of an open source library that's already in upstream... https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2013888
People are overreacting, and seem to have very poor reading comprehension because this has nothing to do with *Brave the company*
CrashLogger@Waterfox @PixelProphecy @cygnathreadbare Yes, telling us we're overreacting is going to help. Where have I seen that before?
NONEOye, por lo que leo, no es tanto una colaboración entre Brave y Waterfox, sino que Waterfox va a utilizar una herramienta Open-source desarrollada por Brave, y que no lo hacen con, digamos, AdBlock Origin por una incompatibilidad de licencias.
Ahora, no sé si el simple hecho de utilizar dicha herramienta igual sea beneficioso a Brave de algún modo, a lo mejor sí…
Daniel@none @cygnathreadbare esto mismo tenía entendido yo. Quieren integrar el bloqueo de anuncios a nivel de navegador y no de extensión, y el componente de Brave les vale para ello.
Y en cuanto a lo de los anuncios en la búsqueda, comentaron en un post en su blog que es solo en los buscadores que son sus socios pues es la manera en que obtienen ingresos para financiarse y poder seguir con el proyecto.
It's a standalone open source Rust library for matching filter lists. It has nothing to do with Brave's browser, their business model, cryptocurrency or company itself. Mozilla have already pulled this library upstream into Firefox... and if you take issue with usage of a *library* you won't be happy about how the majority of OSS is developed.
@cygnathreadbare @Waterfox Oh for fucks sake now I have to switch again
@crashlogger @cygnathreadbare No, you don't, because the OP severely misunderstood what is happening, and how software development works. You can see my other responses or read this: https://github.com/BrowserWorks/waterfox/issues/4182#issuecomment-4211962270
@Waterfox @cygnathreadbare A web browser should browse the web. That's it.
I use waterfox because it is a simple, no nonsense piece of software with no garbage anywhere that runs pretty well on my netbook.
This feels like extra garbage and I am not interested.
Having to opt out of one more thing in the current state of the internet is just annoying, and coming from you guys, I find it a bit insulting.

@crashlogger @cygnathreadbare Right - that’s exactly why this is included, because it blocks ads across sites by default, so you don’t have to install anything. If you’d rather not use it, a single toggle turns it off. But for most people, especially on lower-end hardware, fewer ads means faster pages and less resource usage. Already use an ad blocker? Great, it doesn’t make a difference to you then because it doesn’t get enabled if that’s already the case.
@Waterfox @cygnathreadbare Why does it get downloaded in the first place?
@crashlogger @cygnathreadbare It doesn't download anything? The library is already built-in to Firefox, I've extended it so it blocks ads as well. The default is changing from ads everywhere to blocking them (with the search exception to support Waterfox, which can also be disabled). Not sure why you think the current default is better?
