Same with Firefox Focus on Android.

Can you list examples where the PSF has "gone too far?"


To espouse DEI already is going too far. Isn't this something they do?

Don't they favor females instead of males?

A better question is: why does Python even need the PSF staff? I am not convinced it does. The staff use donations to pay themselves salaries, to achieve what exactly that is so necessary? Do they even do any of the technical work?


> To espouse DEI already is going too far.

That's a crazy thing to say without any evidence or reasoning.

> Don't they favor females instead of males?

Doesn't most of the world favor males? Why is that not an issue in your mind?


"Air America was an American passenger and cargo airline established in 1946 and covertly owned and operated by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from 1950 to 1976."

As I understand it from reading the original post, they are leaving the third party apps default icon. They're not overiding with monochrome icons. Bad title by a probable AI rewrite, please read the original KDE blog post linked elsewhere in the thread.

This is KDE's decision on their Breeze theme. Distributions can ship the icon set with third party icons if they want.


Yeah, I indeed read it the wrong way around at first.


Steam by Valve, the gaming company.


Couldn't imagine what Mozilla would be like today if he stayed around and tried to integrate crypto. At the end of the day, main post shows Firefox engineering is keeping up with Chrome which is a feat no other browser has accomplished.


For the record I also dislike the top brass at Mozilla for the same reasons I dislike Eich - trendchasing instead of making a good browser. Firefox is succeeding because of the engineers and despite the c-suite.


> Firefox is succeeding because of the engineers

By what metric is Firefox succeeding?


We project Brave MAU (going up) will pass Firefox (going down) this October.


On "trend-chasing", a false charge: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44546212


I present the evidence of Family Guy episode _Fifteen Minutes of Shame_ airdate April 25, 2000 which had a Bob Ross bit. Bob Ross was part of the cultural zeitgeist long before the 2010s Internet memes. That has brought a new generation to him, but that's just bringing GenZ in line with the others.


For those trying it out or if it does get banned, here's the iMessage unregistration link:

I tested it out, unregistered in the app and now I can't receive SMS from iPhones. This link says my phone isn't registered either. Yikes!

Edit: it's working now, took 15 mins to work itself out.


Thank you, this was probably my biggest concern
